Where do I start? This hotel is by far the best I have stayed in in Turkey. Ahmed was at the front desk when we checked in. He was very welcoming, polite and friendly. He had a great sense of humour too and nothing was too much trouble.
The food was great, waiting staff were helpful and the restaurants very clean, light and airy. I also loved the fact that there was separate dining area for adults only. We totally enjoyed our dining experience.
I had a spa treatment and it was amazing. The rooms were spacious, clean and a very large comfortable bed. This is a fabulous hotel and I would most definitely be staying there anytime I am in Marmaris. Thank you to all the staff, keep up the great job.

Wonderful 7 days in Marti Resort and was sad to leave. There are so many plus points to Marti :
the fantastic hotel staff (see below),
the breathtaking views of the sea (clean beach and clear water),
clean rooms, seating areas and everywhere in the hotel grounds,
the stunning spread of delicious food including the freshest salads and impressive cakes and desserts, baklavas, gozleme, borek, etc etc
snacks and drinks almost round the clock ( until 1am!)
the impressive 5 outdoor pools and indoor pool with sauna,
a barber/hairdresser with a sense of humour,
lively entertainment every evening very inclusive for the whole family. (with the delightful duo Cemal the best pianist and Ezgi the best flautist in the whole of Turkey IMHO took our breath away with their performance every night)
Enjoyed the amazing Ethiopian Acrobats show too.
To top it all, the service was impeccable: especially the thoughtful Sevim who always greeted us with her heartwarming personality at the Pattiserie everyday. Sevim made us feel right at home, not only serving us snacks, but asking us about our day and made a strawberry milkshake specially: these are the special touches that make our holiday experience even more memorable.
The lovely lady at front desk (sorry we didn’t get your name!) helped us with our day trips including printing out bus timetable to Turunc.
Sabir, who took the time to chat with us,
Ramazan, served us breakfast every morning,
Ahmet, the friendly cat lover, introduced us to Zeytin the black cat.
Ardal the manager greeted us every day from the moment we arrived, problem-solved everything and made our holiday perfect from start to end; 20 years he’s been working in Marti and we hope to meet you again next time we’re there.
Note: The cats are present but they don’t climb on the table and won’t bother you.

A very nice hotel with its own section of beach for guests. There are plenty of nice areas to sit and relax inside and out that are very clean and comfortable. We had no problem getting sunbeds round the pool although it was the end of the season and a lot of them were broken and needed replacing. The food was very good mainly Turkish cuisine. The bars offered a good selection of drinks mainly branded spirits but service was.a bit hit and miss. We had a standard room that was on a split level with no balustrade around the perimeter so could be quite dangerous in the middle of the night if you got up to use the toilet as the bed was close to the ledge and steps.we had no balcony just a Juliet balcony that you we couldn't really make use of as large 3 seat bed sofa was in front of it making it impossible to use.The room was traditional Turkish style a bit dated and dark and in need of some refurbishment
We stayed for one week and had a lovely relaxing holiday and would come again but in different room type.

I probably should have written this review much earlier, but ultimately it doesn’t make a big difference. I chose this hotel for our holiday stay (September/October 2024) because of the exceptionally good price and location. It was our first trip to Turkey, and we weren’t disappointed—a stunning country with wonderful people.
The hotel is located in an incredibly beautiful spot and has plenty of swimming pools, which was a real treasure for us as we love swimming. The rooms could use some refreshing. We were placed in what was supposedly the newer part (with a view of a construction site), but we’re not entirely convinced the finish was of the best quality. Initially, I wasn’t happy with such a view from the balcony—I think many guests had a similar issue. We were assured that construction work was paused during the vacation season, and indeed, we didn’t see any heavy works taking place. Ultimately, we only used the room for sleeping since the hotel offered plenty of spaces for relaxation.
The hotel gardens are like a fairy tale. We also appreciated the large amount of seating areas in the lobby, music halls, and various cafés and bars, including one with a view of the sea. A big shout-out to the restaurant staff—most of them were hardworking young people from Kazakhstan (special greetings to our waitress Alina, who took excellent care of us throughout the stay; she’s sharp and an incredibly kind person). However, it wasn’t just the young staff who were friendly—the local chefs (a wonderful couple), service managers, and the main hall manager were also very welcoming.
On-site, we had access to a wide range of excursions, and Kris from the TUI travel agency was not only well-informed but also very pleasant to deal with.
I don’t quite understand why the hotel has such a low rating here—perhaps it’s due to issues with the rooms.
It’s also worth mentioning the food. The variety each day was immense, and there were themed evenings and events, which were not only a nice touch but also a huge logistical undertaking for the staff. Well done! Everything was delicious. The selection of vegetables, sweets, fish, meat, cheeses, and high-quality local wines was impressive. One minor downside was the morning delays in refilling the coffee machines, which resulted in queues being a common occurrence.
The hotel also had a team of animators, but honestly, this aspect wasn’t the best, apart from the sports team. My husband and I participated in aqua aerobics every day, and it was conducted in a different style each time. The instructors were highly knowledgeable and really dedicated to their work. It was a fantastic experience, great for both body and soul.
As mentioned earlier, the other animators seemed to organize activities in a somewhat chaotic manner, as if reluctantly—perhaps the language barrier was an issue. Apart from the sports team, unfortunately, very few animators spoke any foreign language other than Russian, which, for a 5-star hotel, should really be a standard.
To sum up, I definitely recommend this hotel. The place is beautiful, and you can truly relax there.

Was amazing! We always come here and this time was the best everything was renewed and great. The staff is amazing in general and special thanks to Mr Tunahan who helped us a lot with everything. Definitely recommend it
