Well, the beach and the sea here are beautiful. The beach’s vibe is really appealing. You can make some Instagram worthy photos and stories with beautiful music in the background. In the afternoon the music was played by a DJ. However when we arrived to the beach facility entrance at the top of the hill, a lady told us that their cable lift is under maintenance, therefore we have to go down the stairs for 6-7 minutes to reach the beach. She told us however that their cable lift starts working at 2pm so we have no problem going up the hill, and because of this inconvenience she gave us a voucher to offer us 2 free drinks, free sun beds, and no minimum spend. Once we went all the way down and on the beach a person took our vouchers and brought us the drinks we asked for (two fresh coconuts) and gave us the sun beds which were very comfortable and each bed came with a folded towel. My towel was completely dirty with brown stains. We had lunch at the beach bar, which is extremely overpriced (around 9 euro for one Coke Zero!!) at the end we went to pay for what we had consumed. It turned out that the free drinks were something predefined and we had to specifically ask for them, and since nobody told us, we didn’t ask and never received them. A bit unsettled, we left the beach to grab the cable lift. When we asked for it, the staff kept telling us: for “satal” you need to go there. We thought “satal” was a local name for cable lift. However it turned out that the lift was not working and what they were directing us towards was a “shuttle” bus to bring us up the hill. We waited 20 minutes in the dark, then climbed some uncomfortable stairs to arrive to the minivan.
