Last year we were there (Ocean, this year Blue) and we were happier in Ocean than in Blue. We didn't have any problems with the local people and we use bus line to Alany every day, but it's true that the behaviour of some people (especially the kids who were screaming all the time and chasing in the hotel, and also knocking on the hotel door at 2-3 am) from the UK was below the level of normal people.

Towels are free of charge and are room-specific. You will be given a card (1 per person) to take a towel on arrival. You take it when you go swimming and you return it when you go back to your room and take a card for the towel the next day. Or you can have the same towel for several days. About the pool. We didn't even go to the pool because of the crowds and only used the sea and the beach (Island something).

We stayed end of August 3 adults and a child . Two of us had a cold but no stomach bugs etc . I wouldn't worry we had a great time .
