No advice. Everyone has to find what fits their needs. Where they feel best. There are big expensive resorts, like big hotels and mostly Russians from the East side of Russia were hording them  -they like being in crowds. There are remote areas on the sea with little huts with little or no amenities &#8211; those are fro solitude loving people. We live here in Utah in a small town, Lithuanians would call it a village. So we needed to be in more noise, in the center of events going, life booming. But those who want to hear only the sea sounds and have clean environment &#8211; there is plenty of that, too, in every town. But my main tip stays strong: never rent a room before you see it!<\/p>\n<p>There are some more pics about the island.
