Dreaming of an All Inclusive Holiday?

Vivianne Carvalho

There is really only one word to describe this hotel: vast. The place is absolutely huge and anyone without a good sense of direction will get lost at least once there. That being sad the place is gorgeous and the service is amazing. The interior design does need a bit of a refurbishment, but that does not affect the experience of the place. It has a ridiculous amount of swim pools and bars with snacks spread throughout so one does not need to move much to get food or drink. Some bars did go out of glasses far too quickly, but it is understandable the logistic to keep all bars stacked with glasses might not be so easy to achieve. The food was varied and did cater for most needs. Only constructive criticism is the he lack of allergens information on the dishes which could easily be done. Totally recommend this hotel for a family holiday.

Decided to take my family here for Holiday. I am completely amazed by the quality of the place, the food was amazing, clean and loads of fun activities to do. Staff deserve praise, they are very kind and helpful, especially Anna who helped me and my family with enquiries and gave us tips on what should we do. Can't wait to come back and hopefully see Anna again, her customer service is on another level! I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking to have great time.

Just spent a week at this hotel, ignore any bad reviews, myself and my children had the best time! Rooms are so big, very clean and have everything you need. Entertainment team are great! So much to do here! Food is no different to most all inclusive resorts, there's plenty to choose from! Water park is great and live that they have a private beach. 5 star review from us!

Michelle Welsch

The holiday was wonderful. We are really happy, that we found this hotel. We are really lucky, that the week was a full of 100. The animation gave us such a happy feeling, they all were very nice and we only can say, we will come again :) It made our Heart smile:)

What an incredible place for holiday makers! The whole experience was really amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful, food was delicious, lots of fun areas for kids. Would definitely comes back here and would recommend 100% to anyone wish to have a fantastic holiday.

My husband and I had a lovely week all inclusive. The bar staff were fab and accommodating with different cocktails. Food was basic and repetitive but well Presented. Pool areas were great. Be aware that the sun on main pool is probably on pool from 10 until 3pm. (In January) quite central to bars, restaurants, chemist and supermarkets. overall enjoyed the week. Thank you

Tina McAvoy

I just returned home having spent a week at Las Piramides. First time I travelled solo. The only positive was the staff at reception and the onside supermarket staff were friendly. I had to move room after first night due to noise people fighting in the corridors. The only plus was my room was clean, bed comfortable. The food was terrible. I wasn't expecting it to be like this. I know people are on hols but the noise was terrible and difficult to sleep. If you're looking for a boozy up all night holiday it's the place. I was delighted when my stay was over but felt sorry for staff dealing with people. I mostly only ate cereal for breakfast in the restaurant every day even though I paid for all inclusive. I definitely won't be going back there. I made the most of my break because of the great weather.

Honest Review of My Stay I wanted to share my experience after staying at this hotel. Before booking, I had read the reviews and noticed they were mostly negative. However, I figured people are often more inclined to leave negative feedback than positive, so I decided to give it a try. Overall, the hotel is quite dated, but I have to say the staff are incredibly kind and accommodating. The rooms were spotlessly clean, which was a big plus for me. I did notice that the staff seem to deal with a lot of difficult behavior from some guests, which must be challenging for them. When it comes to the food, I have no complaints about the quality—it was tasty! That said, the variety wasn’t great, similar to what you might find at other budget-friendly hotels. As with many package holidays, the meals did become a bit repetitive over time. Would I recommend this hotel? It really depends on what you’re looking for. If you’re okay with a lively atmosphere and don’t mind some noise from younger, party-focused guests, then yes, this hotel might suit you. However, if you’re seeking a quiet and peaceful retreat, I’d say this probably isn’t the best choice. This hotel is geared towards travelers on a budget, and some guests certainly make the most of the free bars and alcohol. Keep that in mind when deciding if it’s the right fit for you.

I gave 1 star because it doesn’t let me select 0 stars. The hotel is old, there is no AC in the room. The hair dryer is not provided you need to pay extra if you want it, same for the fan and anything else in the room. Is been provided only a bar of soap for a week. There are not double bed, or this is what they said to us. The swimming pool is acceptable. The food is awful, product are not fresh and there is not even no one that check your room number when you go downstairs to eat so is quite useless pay extra for an all inclusive deal. They didn’t even provided us the sign to place out the door to communicate at the staff to do not enter in the morning if you would oversleep. The good things was the location, is not far from the beach and from the other activities.They didn’t even ask us how was our hotel stay when we gave our card room back at the end of our week. I really do not recommend this hotel.

Kayleigh Morgan

Me and my five friends came here to stay for just over a week. I really wasn’t expecting a good experience based on reviews. I however was proven wrong with this hotel for the amount of money you spent it is worth it. There was five of us and they gave us connecting rooms so we were all together. The maids came in regularly made the beds, cleaned toilets and emptied bins etc. We had all inclusive and I will say the food isn’t 100% the best. We did eat out some nights but it was good to have some nights as there was different selections of food everyday for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The drinks were also good in all inclusive alcoholic and soft drinks. I will say at night it can be noisy when people are coming in from being out at 3/4am in the morning walking past the corridors your room is in but apart from that I found it to be quite quiet not a lot of noise. We didn’t have our veranda/balcony door opened a lot but for just over a week we got 2 cockroaches in the room which isn’t the worst. I wouldn’t know how it would be leaving the door opened a lot or during the night if warm. Beds weren’t the worse could still get a decent sleep on them. Hotel is at a great location with so much around you one of the best things about the hotel I would say. We did go to Siam Park, Mall & Markets which were located in or near Los Cristianos but there are taxi ranks all around the most we paid was around €10 & even bus stops that will take you there for free. I would overall recommend the hotel if away with friends or even a couple’s holiday away. I would say maybe as a family holiday you could probably find a hotel more suitable but if not still an okay holiday for a family

Anna Pielach

The hotel is clean. Great location. Close to the beach, park, bus stops and the train station. Our room was ok. The weather in January was excellent. All the members of the staff were very kind and helpful. We would like to thank Katya for helping the Polish tourists, Anita for providing us with bus/train timetables (and great drinks!:), Ali, Ivan and all the other bartenders for the most amazing drinks. You made our little winter holidays special. Thank U:) Room 421.

Beata Stefan

Hotel near the beach, rooms spotlessly clean, everything you need. Meals were plentiful, European cuisine, so everyone could choose what they liked, and the choice was huge! Snacks, cakes, fruits, vegetables, meats - you couldn't try everything. First class hotel!

Pauline Arrowsmith

Had a great time the hotel was lovely and clean. Had a huge choice of good food . The room was nice and clean. Our beds were made every day had fresh towels. Only draw back was the huge queues at the bar only had one member of staff serving. Apart from that the staff were very welcoming . Will definitely book again for next year

Lou Brooks

Came here on a family holiday, everything was done at first. Hotel room was alright, not fully clean and the lifts didn't work very well. The second day is when it descended into havoc. Had breakfast and somebody that was on the trip with me got food poisoning. She left Spain still feeling ill and spent most of our night back throwing up. Personally I do not recommend and I think it should be closed down.

Zillah Warrington

Didn't like the way the English and Spanish have separate entertainment sites. The Spanish did seem to get the shows, animal/ magic/character, while down on minus 2nd floor the English just got music of varying types. Food was plenty in the main restaurant but some was inedible. Most staff were pleasant. Pool is on the rooftop under cover. The Spa was a little circle of water which had children in it so complete disregard to the notices as no children allowed!! Would I go back - yes due to cheapness. Would I recommend- no

Amy Balman

Absolutely awful staff are rude no English speaking staff so made it very difficult not interested in allergies which make it hard for me with an allergy child couldn’t feed him any evening except for chips no entertainment no kids club pools freezing cold drinks are awful when ever we asked about anything we was told end of season like we should have known there was nothing happening we ask for music to be put on in the evening just told outright no with no explanation no pool table games room or table tennis sport tent all cleared no kids entertainment. Absolutely ruined our holiday care more about weddings than holiday makes clapping in one of our party’s face completely shutting everyone down and being rude in general won’t be returning and I suggest if you are booked here you change hotels asap or get a refund! There travels safety certificates also expired last year!!! Steer clear please don’t give these people anymore money!

david carpeneter

Do not stay at this hotel supposed to be all inclusive,,,, never no drinks at the bar only lager no snack bar food is absolutely shocking. Would not feed it to the wild bore up the street. rooms are very very dated with crack tiles all over the floor bathroom bodged. fridge don’t work, no English TV channels. flush in toilet does work so have to wash your stuff down with a bottle of water. no plugs in the bath or sink. room damp it’s a disgrace to say it is all inclusive hotel don’t waste your money. You would be better off sleeping at the side of the road in a tent

Jeff Tracy

Had the worst experience with this Hotel, first night I got there was very tired due to plane being delayed for 2 hours, I was told my room wasn't ready and they knew I was disabled as I was in a wheelchair, told them how much pain I was in and needed to lay down they told me to come back and I didn't end up getting my room till 2am, which I wasn't happy at all, Reception staff wasn't very nice to me at all after this especially the manager as I told him this was disgusting and unacceptable was told I would be compensated when I asked they told me no as it was only a few hours and we have you on camera, The rooms are very dated, There was no entertainment at all for adults at night time we had to go out most nights as was very boring just sitting by pool day and night, 1 night we were sitting by the bar near pool heard a very loud noise and as we all looked a piece of the building had fallen of from level 3 we went over just to have a look an wet took some photos an staff were shouting at us to go away and the cleaned it up quick was very lucky someone could of died!. The food was disgusting not much choice at all kids wasnt impressed at all and was very cheap when I did eat I felt sick, someone had told us last year alot of people got food poison eating from there, we ended up going next door most times to eat at Emporium or Pitstop which was nice food. Only good thing about that hotel is the staff in jewellery shop they were so nice and friendly and the cleaners were lovely to me. I wish I had paid a bit extra to stay at green nature resort and spa was which was next door they had so much more stuff to do in day and night and they had so many snacks at anytime. I could just go on about Pineta hotel but just be warned.

chris dutton

Lovely hotel service was amazing when you asked for something it's there with in minutes food fresh every day staff friendly will be going back for sure

Aaron Smith

Won’t go again, Food is not catered to English drinks are set to coke Fanta or sprite, turborg beer, that’s it. Cleaners are thieves stole children’s crocs, handbags, money adult clothes. All out of suitcases. Aircon squeaking all night long Kids entertainment was none exists Only good thing was the pool. Defo don’t recommended,

Inga Krakowczyk

Hi Reviewers & Visitors! My first visit to Crete was back in 2005 and it was a holiday of my lifetime! I fell in love with the island, its history and cuisine, and the people who are friendly, courteous and love children. So I just knew that my first trip with a baby would be to Crete. Rinela by Mitsis was recommended by a friend and this was a great choice! It was again a holiday of my lifetime but in a different way because it was with a 10-month old baby. Most of the guests were families with young children. We were welcomed with champagne by a friendly receptionist at 3 am (!) and our daughter got a wooden shape puzzle. We had a swim-up suite, which was absolutely gorgeous! We spent most of the time at the beach, which offered great sun beds and lots of shade and the beach bar staff made the best cocktails in the world! In the second half of the day we would come back to our suite so that we could practise some swimming & diving with our daughter in the shared pool. There's also a small terrace leading to the pool where we spent the nights watching some movies and enjoying the view of the stars reflecting in the pool. ;-) The staff were very friendly and nice, I can't praise them enough: the waiting staff, the cleaning ladies, who would drop in to ask if everything was ok, the beach staff. I was a little cautious about travelling with a baby abroad, but thanks to all staff at Rinela Mitsis, our first trip was memorable and would always stay in our hearts!

Our experience at this hotel was nothing short of exceptional! Having enjoyed several all-inclusive holidays in the past, we can confidently say this one stands out as the best by far. The variety of food options was simply incredible—there was so much to choose from that we were spoiled for choice! From an abundance of healthy dishes to excellent vegetarian options, every meal was a delight. Our room was immaculate, chic, and beautifully decorated, with a spacious and modern bathroom that exceeded our expectations. Housekeeping ensured our room was spotless every day, always adding a personal touch with their care and attentiveness. The restaurants provided top-notch service alongside an impressive selection of dishes. Every meal felt like a special occasion, leaving us consistently impressed. The hotel’s location by the sea was breathtaking. Sipping expertly crafted cocktails on the beach while enjoying the serene views was an absolute highlight. The pizza and burger station added a fun and convenient touch that we absolutely loved. If we could give this hotel more than 10 stars, we absolutely would! We're already planning to explore another Mitsis hotel in the future, thanks to this unforgettable experience. A heartfelt thank-you to the entire team for making our stay so remarkable. If we return to Crete, there’s no question—we’ll be back to stay with you again!

Olga Prymek

We’ve stayed at several hotels from this chain, and each time we’ve been thoroughly impressed. What sets these hotels apart is the exceptional quality of the food and drinks. There are virtually no queues at the bars, as waiters bring drinks directly to your table, sun loungers by the pool, or anywhere you wish. The hotel’s aesthetics are truly remarkable. Every bar, reception area, pathway between buildings – every corner of this place is a feast for the eyes. It is beautifully designed, and even the drink selection by the pool is outstanding. We spent two weeks here with our children, and we’re absolutely thrilled. The only downside we noticed is the main pool – while it’s large, it’s also very deep (2.5 m). At 168 cm tall, I lost footing as soon as I entered the water. If you’re planning to stay at this hotel, we highly recommend booking a room with a pool, preferably one with a sea view and a shared infinity pool. This is important because many rooms with shared pools are shaded for most of the day.

Mykyta Bilokon

Best hotel for your summer vacation. Very nice rooms, stylish design of the whole hotel. Beautiful beach and a ton of options for food. This was a very enjoyable holiday thanks to the brilliant team in the hotel. The staff and customer service helped us with our requests. Themed restaurants were delicious, and eating your breakfast by the sea is a vacation within a vacation. Great shows and entertainment. The sunset is amazing. Stunning. Simply stunning. The only disappointment were the photo team ladies, who on our last evening constantly jumped in the pictures and almost tried to push us out so they could take pictures for their clients. This was rude and unexpected. Especially since all other staff were extremely nice and careful. Rooms were nice and spacious, clean and well maintained. Overall, very very nice. Can only recommend.

Natali Topolska

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Mitsis Rinela Hotel & Spa! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, offering all the comforts we needed as a family. The facilities were top-notch, and the kids loved the pools and the beach. Speaking of the beach—it was simply stunning! The soft sand and crystal-clear water made it the perfect place to relax and enjoy the sunshine. The proximity of the beach to the hotel was very convenient, allowing us to easily move between the pool and the sea. It was an ideal spot for both swimming and lounging. One of the highlights was the incredible food—so many delicious options, and something for everyone, even the picky eaters in our family. The spa experience was a relaxing retreat for the adults, while the entertainment kept the whole family engaged. The staff were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. It’s rare to find such a well-rounded experience where everything from the service to the amenities exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Mitsis Rinela Hotel & Spa for anyone looking for a perfect blend of relaxation, luxury, and family fun. We can’t wait to return!

I will recommend this hotel if you want to spend a short time in all inclusive and hot country, it has all you need, food, sun, drinks and very close to the beach. The staff was very helpful and gave us a nice big room and ticked all the boxes for us, thanks to the receptionist team for that. The food could have been better as I wanted to try more Spanish dishes but overall it’s good, it had everything I needed. The only suggestion is that I would like them to include more variety of cocktails as they only offer one flavour a day, but I did try Fanta a tequila and was very nice too. Try to stay in the jacuzzi pool as was the warmest for the Feb season and we had a good time. Fantastic for short holidays and wanted some relax time, only advice that the waitress in the restaurant should smile more :)

Angelika Dereń

We are pleased with the stay. the food is very good, varied, the service is very good. the rooms are clean and comfortable. everything would be great if the water in the pool was heated. and a big minus is that you can hear everything in the room. you can hear your neighbors from every side. the worst is when it is after midnight and the neighbors are partying right next door. They do not supervise it, every day we called the reception at night to report it. a very large majority of people from England who do not respect other people.

Margaret Johnston

Spent 7days here and wished I had booked for more. Check-in was quick and easy Rooms very clean and bright , fresh towels every day. Restaurant although very busy was always clean. Food was good only one day out of seven I didn't eat in Restaurant. All the staff are very helpful and friendly. Reception always on hand for any problem you might have. Women on guest service desk ( sorry can't remember your name) was extremely helpful. Thank you for a great holiday and can't wait to come back .

Christine Neatherway

Nice hotel with friendly staff. Rooms need updating, but this started when we were there (February 25). Food is okay, with plenty of choice. Nice pool, although unheated, with a large sunbathing area alongside. Also, good-sized children's play area with other activities available.

Shannon Edwards

We booked for a family chill out for three nights and that a great place. Very cheap and cheerful and my expectations were low, but it was definitely better than expected. Food was your standard all inclusive that you get anywhere. Rooms have been updated and the beds are so comfy. Drinks around the pool you pay €1 for a cup and they swap it everytime but everywhere was so clean. Beach was a 30 minute lovely walk or about 10 mins in a taxi. Nice to walk around in Costa Teguise square for a €5 taxi ride. Drinks were delicious, lots of food to choose from, such friendly staff. I can't fault this place at all. They have a cocktail of the day and they were delicious. Pools were cold like everywhere, but you just get in and go for it!

Agnieszka Balda

I just came back from my holiday in Blue Star Hotel which I spend with my family and I have to say that it was one of the best holidays I spend in Alanya. Staff was great very helpful and polite, funny and always give 100% . Food was delicious, a lots of choices. Rooms were always clean and we had great view. Swimming pool is big and has slides. I will definitely come back to this hotel like most of the tourist who once came , they coming back every year because there is great atmosphere, like in family, everyone enjoys and make sure to know each other. Funny talks beside swimming pool, dancing on the evening entertainment and taking part in the activities. Definitely come back there !!!! Thank you to all staff working there 🙏

Laszlo Toth

We spent a marvelous time in Hotel Blue Star. The hotel takes place a prestigious position in the city, close to the most beautiful beach of the sea. The hotel rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is kind, helpful and really professional. The all-inclusive restaurant caters to all needs - and above that you could ask for - with its delicious and varied dishes. Regarding helpfulness I would like to enhance Sidar from the reception staff. Resulted from our travel agency negligence we encountered really serious difficulty on our trip to back home on 22nd of October. We did not receive the right code necessary for fly check-in from the office, and the officials were „certainly” unreachable . We could manage our problem exclusively with the help of the man at the reception, Sidar. He looked tirelessly after the possible solutions on the net, provided new alternatives, called for hours with the airline directly. We are grateful for his help and professional work. I can recommend the Blue Star hotel to everyone wholeheartedly.

Irala Ira

First things first: front desk - very nice and we’ve felt welcomed. They offered us a family room instead of two double rooms - they even had a form to write that we agree to change the rooms (I guess because of previous experience with complaint about changing the room without the confirmation). The general state of the corridors - quite poor, a lot of scratches, some light damages and not very welcoming - the age of the hotel was visible by it. The room itself was alright besides the air conditioning - it did not work in the bedroom, the service was twice and “fixed” but still only the fan worked. The restaurant was nice, the food was quite various and looked (quite) fresh, but be careful for the silverware and tablecloths - the service used them to wiped out the tables and put them back; silverware was on the tables all the time - day and night so it’s better to get the fresh ones. On the second day my friends got sick - vomiting all night and throughout the day, stomachache. Me and the second friend was okay - even though we ate similar things but the “sxx on the beach” drink - the friends who got sick, drunk per one the night before. Electrolytes and strict diet helped but after that we did not trust all of the food. The only things that was the most arrogant thing was the state of cleaning of the corridors, the plates and left food by guests on the stairs was not cleaned by the cleaners for 4 days at least. When reporting to the front desk and promises about cleaning it, they only did it after the next 2 days, so it took them to clean the stairs for 6 days… If only it could be done everyday… The room cleaner, Buket very nice and did a very good job. The entertainment team was very focused on Russian guests - they tried to talk Russian to everyone. The spa / hair saloon zone: please use your common sense when making a leaflet for your polish customers - such a huge linguistic errors in your advertisement made me laugh very hard, in a bad way. All together: all of the minor things matter and I if I could choose once again a hotel in Alanya, I am not sure if I would stay there; the price was quite fair for the days and location but not for the hotel.

Mohammed Banares

Just returned from Alanya. 11 nights from 6th to 17th October. For a 4 star hotel and in relation to the price I think the hotel is exceptional. 10th trip to various locations in Turkiye and this hotel had the best quality and variety of food of any hotel we have stayed in. Don't believe the stories of food poisoning from another review because I was there at that time and it's nonsense. We are from England but the majority of the guests were from Poland or Russia but no problems whatsoever. Only downside was that the lifts are small and the bed mattress was a little dodgy on 1 side and the room safe is an extra £2 per day but these are minor issues. Massive bonus was no towels on the sunbeds for reservation and they were strict. Food was varied and very good. All staff had a great attitude. 10 to 15 minute walk to the beach (no 5 on Cleopatra beach). Shops in and right outside hotel. We booked excursions from outside the hotel (choice of 3 very near hotel) and paid very low prices. Overall great hotel for the price although some guests always end up with a dodgy room but not for us. Evening shows and entertainment every night except Sundays.

Tereza Turková

The hotel is really nice and the people working there were also very pleasant. 750m away from the beach is doable on foot as well. On the other hand is the hotel like a labyrinth, so be careful.

Vasil Vasilev

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5) HSM Canarios Park is a great choice for a family vacation or a relaxing getaway. The hotel offers good facilities, including spacious rooms, a clean pool, and a pleasant garden. The staff is very friendly and goes out of their way to meet guests' needs. The location is convenient, with shops and restaurants nearby, and the beach is just a short walk away. However, there are a few areas that could be improved. Although the breakfast is tasty, the variety is somewhat limited and can feel a bit repetitive during longer stays. Additionally, the restaurant can get crowded during peak hours, leading to slower service. Suggestion: It would be great to see more variety in the breakfast options and additional staff in the restaurant during busy times to avoid queues and delays. Overall, HSM Canarios Park offers good value for money and is suitable for a relaxing stay. With a few improvements, it could be even better!😊

Lauren Wright

Great value hotel. We had a lovely holiday with the children here. If you arrive with you’re paying for a 3* hotel in mind you won’t have any issues, I think some people think they’re at a 5* when leaving negative reviews. The food was lovely with lots to choose from, there was always something to eat and a good variety of meats. There was plenty to choose from with the drinks so no issues there. Lots of pools to choose from which was great with the kids, a lovely beach a walk away from the hotel and a park on the resort. The place was clean and the cleaning staff were very friendly. The hotel reception staff were great and very accommodating moving us room to one with a balcony upon request. My only issue with the hotel and our over all experience was the kids club staff, we found them to be very rude and some of the activities were at a charge, which is ok but if your don’t have cash there is no ATM on site. On our last day one of the kids club staff actually stood at the gate not letting anyone in unless they pay €10 for T-shirt making. There was no letting the children in just to play and not participate in the T-shirt making. I would have liked to of put 5* and resolved my issues at the hotel but unfortunately I didn’t have time to speak with reception before my bus arrived. All in all we had a very positive experience here.

Marietta Belgrau

We got a standard double room for 2 adults and 2 children which is fair to say wasn't adequate. Food was not great, out of buffet for every meal there was potentially 2/3 nice items and rest of the food was flavourless and what I can only describe as poor quality, no drink served in the restaurant, just soft drinks. Kids pool was really good and amazing way to spend a day, also the shuttle transfer to the beach was a plus, however any shops were about 25 minute walk away from the hotel and the shop in the hotel has barely anything in it so if you need something (which in our case was formula and nappies) it's some distance. Staff were trying to be helpful, particularly guys in reception, very good!

ellie

Good value and nice for a few night stay, music and entertainment in the evening. Had no safe key and they ask for a deposit to have a remote to use your tv There are some reviews on bad food but as a picky eater myself, there was always something to enjoy for breakfast lunch and dinner. Don’t recommend the milkshakes but had some nice cocktails.

Natalie Kiely

More remote than I thought, but in a lovely location. Close to some nice walks and also close to the small town (walkable in about 20 mins). Service: Cleaners do an amazing job. My room was spotless and they are lovely and friendly. I wasn't overly impressed by the service at reception when checking in (I checked in after midnight when I arrived) and check out (I checked out at 3am). They seemed ok at other times, the younger members were more pleasant. The canteen; I found them all to be rude with the exception of a young girl. She couldn't be more helpful. I wish I got her name, but she was absolutely lovely. The bar staff were all great and the life guard was helpful, giving me a plaster when I needed it. Drinks were fine and there was plenty on offer throughout the day. What was disappointing was the food and the entertainment wasn't my cup of tea, but you can't please everyone! I did overall enjoy the holiday and would go back again.

Maria Sarwar

My family and I recently stayed at this incredible resort in Hurghada, Egypt, and we absolutely loved it! There was so much to do, including an amazing aqua park and theme park for the kids – they had a blast! The food was fantastic, with a wide variety of options that everyone enjoyed. The reception staff were always helpful, and the cleanliness of the entire resort was top-notch. A special mention to Adel, one of the cleaners, who always went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Our rooms were spacious, comfortable, and spotless. We had an unforgettable stay and will definitely be returning! I highly recommend this resort to friends and family – it's the perfect place for a memorable getaway!

Hana K

Amazing service and a beautiful resort. We had the best time, with loads to do. All the staff were so nice and helpful, from the cleaners to the security. The cleaners are so thorough. We felt really taken care of by the staff. It was just us 2 girls and we felt safe. The entertainment staff were great too.

Binela Ramicevic

Our family had an amazing stay at this hotel. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed. The interior is beautiful, and the staff are incredibly kind and helpful. The outdoor area is fantastic, with several pools, aqua slides, theme parks, and activities for both kids and adults. The food was delicious, offering a wide variety for every course, including meats, salads, fruits, and cakes. Kids enjoyed activities like water polo, dancing, carnivals, and games during the day, while adults could join yoga or water aerobics. Every evening, there was a different themed show, which was a great way to end the day. The only downside was the beach. Since it’s on a coral reef, swimming isn’t possible, but it’s great for snorkeling. Overall, this is a perfect choice for families with kids. Highly recommened.

Mrs Claire Lambert

This is ideal for a fun packed holiday especially for kids. We travelled with a 2 and 4 year old who had the most amazing time. The incredible animation staff, especially Abbey and Daniella where just fantastic and an absolute asset to this hotel. My children adored them and they where so inclusive of everyone. I would have loved a mini disco for 1 hour instead of 30 minutes but that would be my only suggestion. The rooms are dated, but they serve the purpose and are always clean. The food and restaurants are exactly what u would expect, you can always get something to eat as they have a huge variety and the a la carte restaurants are gorgeous. Loved the Italian and also the Chinese. The pools are great although it would have been better if the kids small pool with the slides was heated as the kids would be freezing when they got out. If your thinking about booking it.. do it!! I read the reviews and was so worried before I came but we had the Best time. The life guards are amazing, on the ball and always very polite and respectful. Tip- buy a sim at the airport when u land as the Internet isn't the best and always cuts out. I paid $10 for a vodaphone sim with 70gb which I was able to hot spot to all the devices.

Serenity was an AMAZING resort. We travelled in from Luxor and our expectations were high, but we got there and they were very well met! The main reason we came to Serenity was because it was kid friendly. The waterpark was great, the water slides were terrific and the facilities were in good shape. The staff were very nice and were often checking in on us during our meals to make sure we were taken care of and looking for ways to improve. Speaking of the food, it was so great. The buffet had a huge variety of different foods that everyone can enjoy. The rooms were comfortable, very spacious and had 3 big beds and they were comfortable and the pillows felt very good. Overall Serenity was a great place for the whole family and I would go there again.

Very nice hotel, old but well kept. The staff is wonderful and always smiling, and the rooms on the ground floor with a garden are a paradise for children. the highest praise for the pirates animation team, our twins enjoyed their time. Sea is wonderful, but quite cold in the second half of June. all in all a wonderful experience. Greetings from Serbia.

We really enjoyed our holidays at the Sunshine Crete Beach Hotel. We have stayed in a semi-separate apartment out of the main building. It was clean and quiet. We asked for a sea-view room but we could barely see the sea as it was mostly hidden by other buildings which was not so big issue at the end as we did not spend much time in the room anyway. The catering was also great in the main restaurant and at the beach bar. The overall atmosphere was perfect, mostly thanks to the animation team. They took care of the children as well as of adults during the day and evening. There was always something to do and it was always fun. Amongst others stretching and aqua aerobics in the morning, water polo and some competition in the afternoon, and a mini-disco for kids with another competition or karaoke and a disco in the evening. Go, animators, go!

An amazing two weeks at this wonderful hotel. Everything was excellent - the room, food, staff. They welcomed us at 4am and were so kind and helpful, it was a great start after a long journey with young children. The hotel is just lovely, with so many facilities. Everything for kids was perfect and the food was delicious with plenty of choice. Even if you don’t have children, there’s plenty to enjoy. Could not recommend enough.

Jana Dorotikova

We just got back last week. The resort Is great, especially for families with children. Everything was always clean, enough sunbeds And umbrellas on the beach. The sea Is beautiful, ideal for snorkeling. Food was amazing, various choices every day. And mainly, the staff were all amazing, Smiling all the time so we Felt very welcomed. Even though they were working very hard they all were just so friendly! Thank you for a great Holiday And we absolutely recommend this hotel! 🌴🤿♥️

There are many aspects to my review. In general, we were really happy with our vacation. I do not know what many of the complaints I have read come from. Yes, the rooms, especially the bathrooms could use a renovation - shower curtain, clogged bathtub drain, loose toilet seat. But overall, the rooms were really clean, room service was offered everyd day. The same with the food - the breakfasts kept reprating the offer, but to be honest - myself and the kids eat almost the same thing at home anyway so why judge? Lunches and dinners were very variable and really tasty so no complains here whatsoever. I would appreciate more if other guests were a bit more considerate regarding the noise they make in the night and early mornign but this is hardly the hotels fault. And last but not least, the animation crew! These people are just amazing. Huge thanks go to the czech team, Sebastian and all the other people as well! The kids had a blast in the kids club and us, adults, enjoyed the activities as well. Thank you all!

We spent there 9 nights and everything was great. Very friendly staff from the receptionists, to the cleaning ladies, kitchen managers, waitresses and spa ladies :) I have gluten intolerance and the kitchen manager was spoiling me with gluten free desserts every day! Also they were super accommodating towards our small baby with special food requests. The room was cleaned everyday, it was perfect. And the own beach was a highlight:) thank you 😊

Ben Hayes

We had a great week at Sol Marina Beach this summer. We loved our little apartment, sitting by the pool, playing in the splash pool, and the fabulous food. Manos and the restaurant team were amazing, especially with our daughter who is dairy-free. We enjoyed it so much we have booked to come again next summer! We can’t wait.

Nicolas Mazzaglia

We spent six nights at the hotel in a standard double room, which fell far short of what one would expect from a 4-star property. The room had an outdated, unattractive bathroom and an air-conditioning unit from the 1980s that failed to cool the space. After complaining and threatening to leave, we were upgraded to a bungalow. The bungalow was much nicer, with functional air-conditioning that made the 30-degree heat and high humidity bearable. The animation was the most disappointing aspect of our stay. It catered almost exclusively to French tourists, with activities conducted in French and even French flags prominently displayed, which felt excessive. Some of the animators were rude and poorly behaved; one even had the audacity to put out a cigarette at our table while we were eating. The kids’ club was another low point. The young staff members seemed inexperienced and ill-equipped to manage children properly. My daughter sustained multiple cuts on her neck from another misbehaving child, and the staff failed to inform us. They treated her injuries themselves and left it at that. We only learned about the incident when we picked her up. After we complained, the hotel manager issued an apology, but no further action was taken. The food was decent, with a variety of options at the buffet. However, the single restaurant serving the entire hotel led to overcrowding during peak times, which diminished the dining experience. The highlight of our stay was the hotel staff—particularly the waiters and cleaning crew. They were warm, friendly, and went out of their way to make our stay more enjoyable. Kudos to them for their excellent service.

Sara Bašin

I believe the staff makes the experience and in Marin Beach, staff is just perfect. Warm, kind, attent and always available. The food is far above my expectations - huge variety of vegetables, meat, side dishes. Rooms are absolute clean and offer modern comfort. I higly recommend the hotel!

elixir t

This hotel is great if you have kids. Perfect. Great rooms seaview, pools, minigolf, playground, close to fantastic beach, minidisco every night that everyone loved. But the food was not great aside from desserts. Only very cold drinks and fruits. I was in Greece 6 times and that was the only hotel with such a poor food.

Amanda Harris

Had a lovely quiet week here in January. The hotel is great with a central pool area, plenty of sun loungers, and kept spotlessly clean. Very spacious, well equipped rooms which are cleaned every day and fresh towels given. The half board option was brilliant. Food plentiful and varied, topped up regularly. Would definitely return to this hotel.

Azztron 6

Hotel is great, food fantastic, I've never been to an all inclusive where the food is actually the bit I look forward too. Pool are good but very cold during the winter months. Staff amazing and they do friendly game competitions throughout the day. I would give 5 stars but the reception desk is a joke they only have one computer and takes ages for them to do anything.

Ulrike Langford

Excellent hotel! Our very spacious room was facing the road and park, away from the noise of the pool, which suited us well. It had a nice balcony, furnished with a table and 2 chairs. It had also a very clever devise for drying cloth. The Being in the sunlight almost all day long was an extra bonus. The choice and quality of food on offer was extraordinary. The hotel is only a short walk away from beaches, restaurants, bars and shops. I can highly recommend this hotel.

Leonid Kostin

Great experience! If you are planning go to Corralejo, definitely book a room here and enjoy your stay. What we love the most about this place: 1. Staff - professionals that are nice, friendly, trying to help and always smile 2. Animation - love this voice and music at the pool everyday starting from 10 30 3. Food and drinks - fresh, tasty, lots of different kinds 4. Pool - even if the water is not heated , still like the fact that the main pool is big enough to train swimming 5. Table tennis (ping pong) - we played every day couple of times :) 6. Location - parking along the street, park & outside sport activities on the other side of the street, close to the beach and the city center Overall: the place is recommended!

Sheena Hewens

Had a lovely week here. The staff couldn’t have done more. Despite the language barrier for some the humour shined through. Stunning view from roof top pool, rooms were cleaned everyday, food was outstanding with lots to choose from and when I booked in for a massage they gave me a fluffy white robe and slippers!! Nice touch zensational!! The ambiance of the whole place was chilled and friendly. Great shops and waterfront restaurants not too far away. Would definitely go here again. 🥰

So after a bit of a rough first night this hotel has been alright! I booked the holiday from on the beach for the bargain price of £2500 a week before flight we were under the impression we get what we are given and make of it what we can! When we arrived at the hotel we were given a one room apartment with 3 single beds for 4 of us. Roughed it through the first night then went to reception in the morning and they upgraded us to a 2 bedroom suite for £20 a night :) The pools here are clean, life guards play attention and make everyone feel safe. The aqua park is great fun and an absolute delight for our two boys 11 & 9. All facilities are clean and working. There is obviously a fairly big building project happening around the hotel grounds but this doesn’t affect on the holiday at all. My biggest downfall and from looking at all other reviews it’s a common thing is the food. It’s so hit or miss I don’t understand. Some evenings I have so many choices of good quality fresh food to suit my tastes. Other nights it’s a struggle to find something sensible to eat. Staff are fantastic and can’t do enough for you which kind of makes the food bearable. Overall. This hotel has more than met the expectations of the cost spent on the holiday.

Sorry for the late review. I visited Sea Beach in October 2022. I have 2 children and one who is autistic severely. He wouldn’t eat the food that was on offer and as he was only 5 and nonverbal we couldn’t explain to him that this was the only food. The staff at sea beach cooked him a separate dinner and lunch every day, either pizza and chips or nuggets and chips as this is the only food he likes. Every meal time they made sure we had a table free and as soon as we sat down they brought over my son’s meal so he didn’t have to wait too long. The breakfast omelettes were amazing every morning. They had themed nights for dinner each night, and there were food tables set out in the courtyard as well as food in the dining room. So it was like a street food experience. One of the life guards, helped teach my older son how to swim, which I am so grateful as I was always having to supervise my younger disabled son. The pools were always clean, staff friendly and the entertainment by the beach was fantastic every night.

Lynn Jordan

Had a lovely week here. The staff are all helpful and friendly, can't do enough for you. Food was plentiful, as was drink. Didn't go to the entertainment but it sounded lively. Trips are well worth the money. Submarine boat, VIP boat for snorkeling and White Island, and the afternoon/night to the museum, markets and restaurant were great, although the old market was not what we expected and disappointed us. No children with us so we didn't use the water park, but the pool and sea were fine. Take plenty of mosquito repellent, bracelets, plug ins, cream, spray and a watch didn't stop them.

Pedro Pires

I recently stayed at Sea Beach Aqua Park Resort and, unfortunately, my experience was a mixed one. The property certainly has potential, but there were too many negatives that stood out during my time there. Pros: Aqua Park Staff: The staff at the aqua park are fantastic! They’re friendly, helpful, and always ensuring that guests have a great time. Their positive energy is one of the standout features of the resort. Aqua Park Slides: The slides at the aqua park are a lot of fun and definitely one of the highlights of the resort. Whether you're into thrilling rides or just want to relax, there’s something for everyone here. Shared Facilities: The shared facilities, including the pool area and the beach, are well-maintained and easy to access. It’s great to have options for both relaxation and activities. Fitness Center by the Pool: The fitness center is conveniently located next to the pool, which makes it easy to get in a workout while still being able to enjoy the resort atmosphere. It’s a great addition for those who like to stay active during their vacation. Cons: Guest Relations – Valeria: The guest relations representative, Valeria, was quite disappointing. Not only did she come across as unfriendly, but it also felt like guests were a burden to her. Her attitude made us feel like we were inconveniencing her by asking simple questions, which is a real letdown when you're trying to enjoy your stay. Animation Team: The animation team is one of the weakest points of the resort. They lack structure and creativity, often relying on loud music and just asking guests to clap along rather than engaging in any meaningful activities. I expected more entertainment options and a better overall vibe. Bar Staff: The bar staff, unfortunately, can be rude. On several occasions, it felt like we had to be a bit sharp with them to get their attention or have our orders taken seriously. It’s always a bit disappointing when the staff at the heart of the resort experience don’t seem to appreciate their guests. Outdated Rooms: The rooms are a major letdown. They feel outdated and poorly maintained. There was visible wear and tear in several places, and the overall cleanliness left something to be desired. This was especially frustrating given the price point of the resort. Reception Staff: Similar to other staff members, the reception staff were unfriendly and unwelcoming. They didn’t provide the warm hospitality that one would expect at a resort of this level. Conclusion: While Sea Beach Aqua Park Resort offers some fun features like the excellent aqua park and good shared facilities, the overall experience is marred by unprofessional staff attitudes, outdated rooms, and a lack of engaging activities. With a little more attention to guest service and property maintenance, it could easily be a much better place to stay, but unfortunately, the negative aspects outweigh the positives during this visit. I won’t be returning in the future.

Yuliia Riaboi

Very beautiful resort! The service is great, food is delicious, the animation team kept us entertained all the time! They have great activities during the day and wonderful evening shows! Yesterday they had a white party and we really enjoyed it! They also have lots of pools and aqua park! Great hotel! Definitely recommend!

Ryan Tamayo

The ambiance here is always inviting and comfortable. The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. And the staff at this hotel were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Especially to Mr. Rommel Rillera I commend him for his very good service he is so dedicated. And also the food was good and great value for money. I will definitely recommend this place to the people.

Claire Odonnell

Hotel is clean a lot if food options especially if you are a fussy eater like me.The entertainment make the hotel more enjoyable where you can easily just stay in the resort all day and night. They were great with everyone. Plus right on beach so you don't have trek worth all your stuff.

amelia lyn hontucan

We had nothing but the best experience at this resort. The staff were friendly, the food was amazing, and the place was clean and organized. They let us check in early and upgraded us to a nicer room. Also i want to commend MR. ROMMEL RILLERA for his very good service. I will definitely return to this place in the future.

Toon van den Heuvel

Terrible Experience - Avoid at All Costs We recently stayed at Labranda Beach Hotel, and it was an absolute nightmare. First, we arrived only to discover that the hotel had filed for bankruptcy, something we should have been informed of before our arrival. This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable, as we were left scrambling for alternatives with no assistance from the hotel. Eventually they let us pay again for 2 nights and we had to take it since it was too late to find something else. The rest of the experience only went downhill. The food was subpar—bland, poorly prepared, and clearly made with cheap ingredients. The beer they served was undrinkable, and yet, we had to wait in long lines to get this miserable excuse for a drink. Maintenance was nonexistent; the entire place looked rundown, and even the basic amenities felt like they hadn't been properly taken care of in ages. Our room was tiny and uncomfortable, with minimal attention to cleanliness or upkeep. The service was consistently terrible—staff seemed indifferent and unhelpful, doing the bare minimum without a hint of courtesy. Overall, I can’t stress enough how disappointing and frustrating our experience was. This hotel failed us on every level, and I would highly advise anyone considering staying here to look elsewhere. Save yourself the money and stress—there are far better options.

Hayley Evans

We stayed in a family room with 2 adults and 2 children. The room is very small, barely enough space to put suitcases away. The room also constantly smells like urine so we had to buy an air freshener, but this doesn't cover the smell. The fridge is old and rusty and smells bad inside. One of the bedside lights is hanging off, but the maintenance team was sent to fix it after I complained. The shower has black mould in it. When I complained, they just said "This is just how it is in Greece". The hotel itself feels generally old, rough around the edges and grubby. The elevator was out of service for a couple of days. The beds were hard and uncomfortable. Didn't get a single good night's sleep. I complained about all of the above and asked for an upgrade. They said they would call me but I never heard anything from them. The food is adequate. Lots of choice on the buffet, but the quality is lacking. The Muses restaurant offers a poor example of Greek food. You're much better off finding a local Greek tavern. The pools are well kept and clean. The view from the 4th floor is beautiful, you can see Turkey. There's immediate access to the beach from the hotel grounds. It's a smooth pebble beach with some sand. The staff are friendly enough, but some of them look very unhappy to be there, especially the bar staff. The kids entertainers are nice and friendly, but the entertainment is basic. The drinks are fairly poor. Sometimes the punch will be made with orange juice, sometimes it's orange squash. The pool bar looks particularly dirty with rusty fridges and mouldy, wet areas. The waterpark is good for kids. It looked safe and clean and my 9 year old enjoyed it. Overall the hotel is disappointing and absolutely not what I would class as 4* compared to other hotels I have stayed in.

Paul Hillsden

We were a little disappointed with our room condition, but as the hotel was fully booked, we couldn't be moved. We understand that this hotel will be undergoing a refurbishment in the not too distant future, which may have something to do with the condition of it. However, the rest of the hotel was fine. The bar area was nice and comfortable, the pool was nice, clean, and warm. The poolside bar was excellently staffed by enthusiastic and friendly staff. The food was of very good quality and variety, and the service at lunch and dinner was exceptional. The people working there really made this place. Always smiling, always friendly, and always ready to accommodate any, reasonable, request. They made us feel very welcome.

Beth Veitch

This hotel is shouldn't be 4 stars it's definitely a 3 star! The pictures they show on their website do not match the rooms in real life. Our towels weren't replaced in the room for 2 days and they don't regularly replace new mugs or fresh tea bags, coffee and milk in the rooms. The Pillows and sheets are stained with make up etc. And they're not replaced the whole of your stay! The pool is the best part of the hotel however they have lights hanging off inside the pool and the children's pool is full of debris and needs to be cleaned regularly. The pool bar staff are brilliant and really friendly. The bar in the evening is very slow and needs more staff for the amount of guests in the hotel. The eveing entertainment is rubbish they might aswell just not bother! The decor is very dated with old manky carpets running through the corridors. I will say the food is lovely and changes everyday so your not eating the same things all the time. This hotel definitely needs to be down graded to a 3 star and stop leading people to believe it's a 4 star online!!!

Arron Davenport

Me and my wife stayed at this hotel for a week whilst visiting paphos. Tldr; Overall, I would give this hotel 3/5 stars, good hotel ONLY if you get it for a good price like we did. I wouldn't recommend it at all for young couples in their 20s and early 30s or anyone seeking anything other than sun, beach and being poolside. Rooms 2/5: the rooms are dated and not particularly well equipped. The mattresses are firm and the pillows are really poor. The air con in the room works fine, the TV is tiny, has about 8 channels that are all in greek. We got the sea view room and the view was good however depending on which sea view room you got your view could be amazing or awful. Our towels were changed daily and bed made with some light cleaning. Staff/service 3/5: once again it was just decent. The staff don't really talk to you or say much, they're not particularly friendly but not rude either. A very average service throughout. Food 4/5: the food was surprisingly good considering it was included, we got half board breakfast and dinner and both are buffet style. We were both surprised at the quality and the amount of choice. Notably the meat choices for the dinner service. I read a few reviews before coming to the hotel, that the food was poor however it is clear that those people were unrealistic considering this is a hotel on the cheaper side. Drink 2/5: I usually wouldn't write a section just for drink but this is important. They have the WORST selection of 3 beers and 0 cider options which was surprising to me. They do however get +1 star for the cocktails that although do not look great and are not made with any real care, are loaded with what I can only call "super measures" of spirits. Hotel environment. 3/5: once again it was very standard and nothing special. The pool is big with ample seating, there is a standard sized indoor pool and sauna and a TV room with a small TV. There is daily evening entertainment which is probably the worst thing about the hotel. It was either music or bingo or both, and the musicians could have been anyone they pulled off the street, furthermore you have no choice in listening to it and the windows are not soundproof. Local area 3/5: you're pretty far out from the centre of pathos but there are travel options very close to the hotel. There is a particularly good beach spot a short walk away but be advised, other than this beach there is nothing else to do locally that is not shopping or eating. There was no evidence of local crime or scamming going on and the area seemed safe and mostly clean.

Charmaine Williams

The rooms need fixing up and a bit of paint their was mould near the air condition ants in the room on the cups in the room so we could not drink from them and thread coming out of the bed sheets hole in the cover. The sevice was good there was always staff at the desk to help you. Entertainment was great loved it the day and evening. Good Location it’s near where you can walk to shops or have lunch or dinner out or go out in the evening to have a drink

Melanie Goodfellow

Although this hotel is a little tired looking in places it is clean. The staff are friendly & even though we arrived nearly 3 hours before the scheduled check in time they allowed us to use the facilities & start using our all inclusive bands straight away. The only thing I would note is that although the pool is very large it has very limited shallow ends. My partner is over 6ft tall & was only able to stand in about 20% of the pool the rest of the pool was nearly 2 metres deep which is not great if you have kids who are not strong swimmers.

Natacha Attardo

I have been to many 5* star resorts over the past couple of years, and this is definitely not a 5* hotel. The room itself is quite lovely, although the hotel itself seems to not be maintained sufficiently which makes it look rather tired. The WiFi is pretty much non-existent at times and at certain parts of the hotel. The food is very repetitive and seems to be the same frozen foods day-in and day-out. I was even sick on one of the nights from it. Although, overall, we did have a nice stay but unfortunately we wouldn't revisit this resort.

II Giedre II

Had a great time, but not a 5 star hotel even in Turkish standard 😄 really liked the town, meals were nice, there's extra sunbeds that you can take if there's not enough free ones. Every 2-3 days there's an interesting show after kids disco ✨

Ro

Horrible trip and would not recommend. Got sick from the food as we only ate here, food poisoning on plane home was horrific. Every night incredibly loud music right outside our room so could not sleep, even with sound cancelling headphones you could hear it loudly. Staff did not care one bit and refused to even consider moving us to a different room, rudely spoken down to by what seemed to be the only English speaking receptionist. Felt robbed of my time and money when I returned home, but very relieved to be anywhere but Ramada Akubuk.

Sezgin Balaban

This is my first time at this hotel in Akbük, Didim. The hotel is nice, and the food is great, but what really made my holiday special was the staff. I especially want to commend the lady at reception who helped me swap my room without any issues. I went to the beach every day, and the facilities at the beach are excellent. The pool bar and restaurant offer delicious food as well. What truly sets this hotel apart is the exceptional customer service. The staff are well-trained, particularly Adem, İbrahim, and Özcan from security. They were so friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about helping customers. Their warm smiles and welcoming attitude made a real difference. The shuttle driver also provided excellent service, with shuttles running every 20 minutes between the beach and the hotel. He was always welcoming and delivered exceptional customer service. Overall, the staff’s warmth and professionalism made this experience unforgettable for me. I would definitely recommend this hotel to everyone. The price is reasonable and suits all budgets.

Tatiana Pedro

I felt obliged to write a review. I think people with bad experiences take their time and people with good experiences don't bother to rate. I spent a week from October 9th to 16th with my partner and seeing these before reviews, I completely panicked. I was scared, afraid of where to sleep, what to eat and sad about my vacation.  I'll never believe the reviews again. I warn you in advance, according to European standards, it's not a 5-star hotel. But hotels are rated on the quantity of services provided, not their ""quality"". I paid a price of 600€ per person with flights+transfers+7 nights. (Di vakantie discounter website) And it was spectacular. Although the food was different and I was afraid of it, it was a cultural thing, I had lots of fresh food and plenty of variety. Fruit, desserts, stewed meat... delicious baklavas!!! The hotel welcomed us at 3am and gave us two sandwiches straight away.  They spoke very little English, but enough for us to understand each other. The room was spacious and there were no fancy sheets or fancy things like people expect. I had the basics and a comfortable bed. The sound starts around 9am/10am but my room was further away from the pool, so it didn't bother me at all if i wanted to sleep until late. Activities every night, the pool was spectacular, the spa too and the bus that takes you to the beach, also with another part of the hotel with food and pools, also spectacular. Always and active days, including a lot of families and children's. If you want to relax and enjoy, feel free. Are you expecting a quiet and peaceful hotel? Forget it. This hotel is full of activities and fun! I loved it and intend to return. For the nasty comments about the food, I've attached all the photos I took. I saw lots of staff working shifts of 12 hours. Let's be humble and understand that it's not always possible to exceed our expectations. Be human and respect them. Many of them were exhausted, but they were still there doing their best to make sure we had a good vacation. I'd like to mention that I had the opportunity to go to Kos (Greece) and Pamukkale thanks to the excursion company that was there. It was an incredible experience! I recommend it! Thank you Ramada Akbuk staff!!! See you next year!

Norbert Synal

for me and my girlfriend is a very beautiful place. Very nice animators, they are very fresh... Jan 2025 This hotel is very nice, very comfortable rooms and very nice people work in here. I think i come back again to this hotel. That's 5 of the 5 points!! The drink and food are very tasty and fresh. That's place have a beautiful beach. have a 3 swimming pool.

Aida Koishan

That's place is my favorite in Egypt! I love it this place! Jan 2025 beautiful hotel close to the beach. Very good food, very nice people and staff, very nice animators. Wonderful days spent in a beautiful place, the hotel is very clean and well-kept. The pools are beautiful and warm. I recommend this place to anyone who dreams of a perfect vocation

Alex Neu

Fantastic hotel. The beach is beautiful here and fish amazing. Great food and great staff in Restaurant. Big clean rooms. Animation team and activities throughout the day and good entertainment in the evening. Thank you

Candy Candy

We were very satisfied with our stay at the Barceló Hotel. We were here seven years ago for the first time and it made us come back here again. Hotel is close to the airport. A big advantage here is a beautiful coral reef. After entering the sea, beautiful fish approach you. Food is really varied and delicious, a lot of sea food. The hotel staff is really kind and helpful, including a person dealing with towels, bartenders, waiters, rooms service and animators. They aren’t too pushy. The WiFi is also really good everywhere in the hotel. Overall, I highly recommend.

Agata Lipniak

We recently stayed at Barceló Tiran Sharm as a family with a young child. The hotel is quite dated but clean, which we appreciated. However, there were some issues during our stay. The handle on the balcony door kept falling off, and our room door worked without needing the key card. While staff sent someone to fix these problems several times, they were not resolved. The staff overall were amazing and made our stay memorable. We especially want to thank Ibrahim, who kept our room spotless and pleasant, and Ahmed from the Kids Corner in the restaurant, who spoke “cat language” to our son and turned our meals into a highlight of the day. The animation team was a mix of fantastic and underwhelming. The boys and Saio were great - very professional and engaging. On the other hand, the brunette hosting darts seemed more focused on her watch than the guests. Natasha in the mini-club didn’t show any interest in entertaining our son, even though we were the only guests there. We had to ask for things like painting supplies ourselves, and in the end, she announced we had 7 minutes left before asking us to leave. The food was delicious and varied, with something for everyone, and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Despite the issues with maintenance and some parts of the animation team, we had a really good stay thanks to the friendly staff, good food, and beautiful setting.

don Roper

Nicely laid out, well maintained, well equipped hotel,a tiny bit frayed around the edges but nothing really worth commenting on Staff are generally wonderful and there are enough English speakers for language not to really matter (despite the large majority of guests being French) Went all inclusive and food (especially the veggie options) pretty good and fairly varied menu. Meat/fish dishes were generally pretty bland and prone to being a bit overcooked though. More like a Full Board with limited variety alcohol than a proper All Inclusive. All in all a decent, stress free stay in a relatively central location. Made by the staff (restaurant and bar in particular) and the fact that it is such good value (flight, transfer and a week's stay in January less than £350)

Gary Hunt

I am currently enjoying New Yearat the hotel. Anything lacking in refinement is more than made up for in effort. The staff are wonderful, friendly and cannot do enough to help. The effort that went into NY celebrations was awesome and the feast served was definitely a couple of stars above the official rating. Well done to the entire team.

Andrew Buchanan

I had an amazing stay at Valeria Jardins d'Agadur Resort Hotel in Agadir. The hotel is exceptionally clean, with beautifully maintained green gardens that add to the relaxing atmosphere. It’s just a short walk to the beach, making it perfect for those who love the sea. The food was excellent, with a great variety of dishes catering to all tastes. The WiFi worked seamlessly throughout the hotel, which was a big plus. The swimming pools looked fantastic, with a separate pool featuring slides, making it great for both families and adults. The onsite spa was a highlight—I had an amazing toning massage, which was incredibly relaxing. Overall, a fantastic resort with great amenities and a perfect location. We will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend it for a peaceful and enjoyable stay in Agadir!

Ella Salsbury

Had a lovely the time here. The staff were friendly and entertaining staff too. Lovely food and a variety of drinks. Even csn have a bottle of wine with meals which is nice. Rooms are lovely big shower. It has 3 pools. 1 where all the entertaining happens and if you walk to by the spa there is a kids pool with slides and another pool with a bar. It's more quite this side. Beach is not far and hotel has its own bit with deck chairs. Highly recommend this hotel for all.

Valeria Jardins d’Agadir Resort is a clean and well-maintained resort, offering great amenities like a gym, sauna, and several pools. Its location is excellent—just a 5-minute walk to the beach and close to the city center. The staff are friendly, and the all-inclusive buffet includes plenty of healthy vegetables, which is a nice touch. However, there are some downsides. Water is not provided in the rooms, and guests must request small bottles at the bar. The food lacks variety, with repetitive options and disappointing desserts. Additionally, the hotel entertainment is entirely in French, and many staff and guests only speak French, which can be a challenge for English-speaking visitors. The gym hours are also limited to 8 AM to 7 PM, which might not suit everyone’s schedule. With a few improvements, like extending gym hours, providing water in rooms, and offering more food variety, this resort could be a much better experience for international guests.

Excellent service from start to finish from all the staff. Food always good quality with plenty of choice. Tried the Greek restaurant by the beach which was also good and a great place to see the sunset. The Italian restaurant was not as good but made a change. Our swim up room in block 300 didn't get any sunshine which maybe a bonus in August but a shame in Oct. The only other minor faults were towels are bit thin for 5 star and the TV had a habit of switching on a screensaver picture in the middle of the night! cured by un-plugging it. Otherwise all clean and tidy and a perfect place to relax.

This place is amazing and the most relaxed holiday we have ever had, staff could t do more for you & the rooms !! Amazing with great air con , only gripe I would say is the drink choice for the all inclusive, no dark rum or bailleys, only two drinks I like sadly , I prob would have wasted more drinks trying than I would have drinking my choice 🫣 we aren’t big drinkers but with it being so amazing every other area it just lets the 100% slip for me , would I go back? ? No …. Definitely not as it isn’t adult only so definitely wouldn’t go back at those prices , we only paid that price for adults only, I can’t see them getting the same money for families but that’s their issue. I’d imagine it would be £5k for a family for a week, better places for that kind of money 👍👍

Room with shared private pool was amazing but bed was hard. All staff were really friendly. Food was great. Entertainment was OK but not wow. 5 min walk to the beach through the grounds of another hotel or they can take you down to the beach in golf cart. Reserved section of beach for Sandy Villas Hotel only. Beach Side pool was a nice touch, again for Sandy Villas customers only.

Beautiful and relaxing vacation! Nice and calm environment, always kind and professional personal, delicious food with lots of options, excellent desserts, evening programmes are great, evening with program “Jazz The Two Of Us” was breathtaking. The sea is beautiful, deck chair always available at sea, at swimming pool as well. Pool by the sea is awesome, again nice staff, excellent Prosecco. Everything just perfect, I recommend.

Great hotel. Very clean and the gardens are spectacular. Food is really good and definitely geared towards adults. Good variety and high quality. Fresh salads were very impressive and nice range of desserts on offer. Staff are very friendly and helpful and take pride in their work. The own section of the beach was great as was the swim up bar next to beach. Couple of minor issues. Mattress on bed wasn't great and the alcohol seems very watered down.

My partner and I have just returned from a delightful week-long holiday. The hotel was exceptionally clean, and while the rooms were basic, they met our expectations for the price. The pool area was well-maintained and tidy, with the only minor issue being the inconsiderate behavior of some guests who monopolized sunbeds for extended periods and not using them. We would appreciate it if measures could and should be taken to address this issue in the future. The bar staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, and the food hall offered a wide variety of fresh food options, catering even to individuals with particular dietary preferences. This was my second visit to the hotel, and I would highly recommend it and consider returning for a third time in the future.

We are currently on our 5th night. From the very start at check in (we were 3 hours early and they still checked us straight into our room) the holiday has been amazing. Nearly every single drink at the bar is included in the all inclusive, the food selection and quality is amazing for an all inclusive. Our room while it only has a ceiling fan was cool enough to sleep in if you keep the patio doors open and curtains closed 24/7 this is with 29c days. Information given at reception on bus times, prices and what buses to catch and where to change for a trip to the aquarium was so helpful. Lovely pool and getting a deck chair isn't difficult at the end of Sept/beginning of Oct. Most staff speak great English. We will definitely be back!

The hotel is inland, but a free shuttle is provided for the beach. Staff are friendly and hardworking. I do, however, have two complaints. Jet2 advertise the hotel as a family destination yet there is no gate on the children's pool area which would add a level of added security. We are travelling with 2 toddlers, yet we have been allocated rooms over the smoking area and the pool bar where nightly very loud entertainment does not finish until 11pm. It can be heard even with the balcony doors closed, which also makes sleep difficult as the air-conditioning unit is portable and needs to be vented through the open door! There is a ceiling fan, but this just circulates hot air. We have twice requested quieter family rooms only to be told the hotel is full and there are none available. This is despite an email request before we arrived, and there have been two changeover days during our stay so far. The hotel does not appear to be full, but maybe there are a lot of rooms with single occupancy. I therefore could not recommend this hotel as a destination for families with young children.

Mum and I went on holiday here 11-18 October 2024 3 star hotel. Staff polite friendly and helpful Rooms needed air conditioning not just a unit which was very noisy only pool view get the units. Or you can pay 5 euro a day for it. Pool bar was great serves food and you can have any drinks after 11pm you pay shuts at 12am. Entertainment was wonderful in evening and in day also entertainment was great for all. Buffet food in dinning room A lot to chose from sometime it is cold but what do expect when it's a heated unit. Chefs keep checking to replace food quickly Tables get cleaned also quickly
