I chose this hotel after seeing the view from the windows on the video review. And then it turned out that even on the right dates very nice discounts. So, pros: very friendly and attentive staff. The rooms are clean, the view is fabulous. True, in a storm, splashes flew to our balcony, although we lived on the third floor. But this is only because the hotel is very close to the sea. Breakfast is included in the price, it is of very decent quality. In general, it is worth noting the delicious cuisine. It features a swimming pool. Cons: Wi-Vain is unstable. A lot of different access points, had to regularly switch to the one that currently works better. The furniture is battered in places, but in general it looks quite neat. Terrible pillows! Please replace them. And that’s it, that’s where the cons end. Many thanks to the hotel staff for their responsiveness and quick solution to any problems that arise!

Beach and Sea
Beach of the hotel “Arcadia”. The ancient Greeks called Arcadia an ideal country where no one had any problems. In the hotel “Arcadia” there is one of the best and largest in the Crimea beach on the rocks. The beach is concrete, this makes it less attractive in rough seas (not uncommon for rocks). The waves hit the wall and rise almost vertically upwards. Vacationers sometimes find it difficult to swim, but they can soak up the sun and admire these fountains.
The beach service is well thought out and extensive. Here tourists will find everything you need for a pleasant stay. Although the beach is concrete, it looks aesthetically pleasing, so it is a very popular place.
Arcadia Hotel has a large outdoor pool. It is located next to the summer terrace of the restaurant, the water is pleasant moderate temperature, so that even children can swim. For them, a shallow area up to 60 cm deep is provided, the pool is open from early morning until 21:00. After that, it is forbidden to swim, as the water is disinfected.
During the day, you can swim here and take part in entertainment and sports activities. Children are also entertained daily by animators.
The hotel is very nice, right on the outskirts of the fishing village, at the end of the main street. Beautiful view from the rooms. The pool is like a postcard, its edge visually passes into the sea, as if floating over the sea. Landscape design is very competently designed. Our stay was not overshadowed by anything other than the general dynamics of prices in the Crimea, and in the Cliff. Last year, prices grew steadily, and we ended up spending a lot on food. Every two to three days, restaurants, taxi drivers, bars and street vendors on the beach raised prices by 15-20%. Today ice cream costs 60 rubles, tomorrow it will be 80 rubles, at the end of the stay it will be 100 rubles. It’s uncomfortable.

Palace of Princess Gagarina
Located in one of the most picturesque places on the southern coast of Crimea, east of mount Ayu-Dag, near Cape Plaka. This palace is as beautiful as the feeling behind it: the love that arose between two very different people, the elderly Governor-General of Kutaisi Alexander Gagarin and the young Georgian princess Tasso Orbeliani. It didn’t matter to them that they were considered a completely unsuitable couple, for them there was only their love. Thanks to her, this palace was built.
A delightful and unique mansion on top of a cliff, built by a heartbroken widow in memory of her deceased husband. It is noteworthy that the princess was left alone, admitting that she still loves her husband. In the last years of her life, she began to build a palace to realize the dream of Alexander Ivanovich.
In fact, all the buildings associated with love and dreams are especially beautiful, they seem to intertwine, absorbing the feelings and desires of the people who influenced their creation, and the Gagarina Palace in the Crimea is a vivid example of this.
The palace of Princess Anastasia Gagarina is a love story, captured by strict architectural lines and decorated with stucco on the walls. It has a sad ending, but the castle itself, built on the southern coast of the Crimea in the village of Utes, does not cause dull thoughts. Beautiful and majestic, as in the pages of fairy tales about knights and princesses, it seems to have preserved the feelings of two lovers for centuries and always rejoices in guests.
Crimean Nature Reserve
The nature of the Crimea for a long time was subjected to strong anthropogenic pressure: the peninsula was long and densely populated, a significant part of it was turned into residential areas and arable land. But still the local authorities decided to restore the flora and fauna, and opened this place. The Crimean reserve is the largest and oldest in the Crimea. The total area of the reserve, including the Swan Islands branch, is 88,601 hectares. The reserve occupies the central part of the main ridge of the Crimean Mountains from Yalta in the west to Alushta in the east. On its territory, in part of the mountain forest, there are the highest peaks of the peninsula: The slopes of the mountains are covered with forests, mountain-meadow steppes. The flora of the reserve is represented by more than 2500 species of plants and fungi, of which 42 species are listed in the Red Book of the Russian Federation, and 22 species are included in the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
Of course, in the Crimea there are other interesting sights that are worth a visit. But some of them are so far away that you need to lay the whole day on the tour.
Many call the secret of the success of the hotel “Arcadia” its location – the area is very picturesque, although the beach is concrete, it is clean and crowded. It features a large swimming pool with panoramic views of the Black Sea.
