Marmaris

First time in Turkey and 1st time all inclusive and I want to come back already best place I've ever been to. Everyone is super friendly and for a small £5 (200tkl) you don't have to leave your table the drinks keep coming. Very impressed

Not long got back from a week stay at The Poseidon Hotel in Marmaris. Overall it was a decent stay but there are a few things to point out and be wary of if you choose to stay in this hotel. We originally booked a room with balcony and when arrived we did not have this. The room itself was nice and modern but very small. The food provided at the all inclusive did not offer much variety and what they had to offer was….different. The main issue we had with this hotel is that I had left my belongings in a bag in my room and when I went to my room after the cleaners had done their job, they were no longer there. I reported this to the cleaner and reception staff but they did not accept liability and was faced with a very rude woman with an attitude problem who was the line manager, advising that it was our problem even though they were locked away in our room. So I would suggest being extra careful when keeping valuables in your room.

Had a really nice stay at Poseidon Hotel. The rooms are really clean, the food and drinks were high quality and as a vegetarian there were lots of options for me. We really enjoyed spending time at the pool area and got to enjoy some excellent evening entertainment. I had an issue with a flight cancellation and the staff tried their best to help me. I would just say if you book any excursions or transportation within the hotel to double check your tickets and how much you were charged as I had a couple of issues with an overcharging and also we asked for a boat journey for All Inclusive and were given soft drinks options only. Again the actual hotel staff sorted out these issues for us in a professional manner. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Marmaris and I would happily stay again.

This was a fabulous place to stay. The people working at the hotel were lovely. Nothing was too much for them. The food was good. It is close to the sea. Staff were very helpful. I would come again

Great place, hotel for adults, music sometimes was too loud, but I guess if I would ask they could lower it a bit. Beach is on the other side of sidewalk (it's 5m from exit and you can take drinks from hotel bar right from the sidewalk and go on the beach) and sunbeds are free. Very good food, all the time you have something to eat, drink. Pool is from 8-17.30. Great and nice personel, helpful and doing great job. Everything was cleaned quickly and smoothly.

This is classed as 3 stars, once upon a time it looks like it was but has been left uncared for. All-inclusive to them means meat balls morning noon and night, we hate out most nights as the food so dreadful, rooms cleaned every 3rd day they swept the floor, only changed the towels when we complained and there towels aren't fit to dry our dogs with. Only changed the bed sheets once in ten days. We have been to Içmeler several times and have had great holidays, but I wouldn't recommend this hotel to a homeless person, AVOID at all costs.

I am currently writing this review whilst still at the Mersoy Bellavist hotel. Firstly the good things about the hotel. The hotel is located in a good area that is only up the road from the beach. And Is also surrounded by lots of shops and restaurants. The rooms are alright. Nothing fancy but do the job. When we arrived the pool was amazing for the first 3 to 4 days. Then they buggered up the chlorine concentration and turned it into a murkey puddle. Onto the cons- when we arrived at the hotel the staff initially refused to let us check in stating that check in could only be done after 14.00. After arguing with the rude receptionist that we had paid for the previous day he magically found our room. Onto the cleaning, or should I say lack of cleaning because to be quite honest I don't know what they do. On multiple occasions me or my partner had to get our own towels or toilet roll from the staff storage cupboard. The chery on the cake was when the cleaner gestured towards us that we needed to pay them. We refused. The final and worst con of the trip was the food. Now just to paint the picture I play rugby in the front row and will eat anything you put in front of me, and clean the plate. However the food in this hotel is the worst food I have ever eaten. It's luke warm and all tastes like mush. Me and my partner ended up eating in other restaurants in order to get some quality food. Overall there is definitely better out there but icmeler is an amazing place.

Friendly staff and good location,but that's the only positive thing. Definitely not worth to be 4star hotel at the moment, don't be tricked by their pictures as lots of them are from the past and some attractions doesn't match/exists any longer. Stay away!

we had a great experience for the price we paid - £220 for a week all inclusive. the food was tasty although very similar each night, and the beer/alcohol did the job, so you can’t complain at that price. but from talking to other guests the rooms really differ massively and we were in the newest block so our room was quite nice. they did provide clean towels and do a bin change once a day for us - although a few times only giving us two towels when there were three of us. some things weren’t great overall though - the cleaning processes at the bar and in the restaurant were minimal. not once did we see a glass be washed in a dishwasher, they would just collect them up, rinse under the tap and then pour your drink. you have to hope that a more thorough clean was done when you weren’t looking but i wouldn’t be surprised if not. they also didn’t spray or wipe any of the restaurant tables, just brush crumbs off and relay with cutlery. pools were pretty cloudy and didn’t look clean, but i did smell the chlorine in them which was reassuring. spa attached to the hotel was great and well priced. overall, an acceptably good holiday if you’re only paying a small price!

I wasn't expecting much after reading bad review after bad review but when we got there we were pleasantly surprised We arrived at 01.00 and the gentleman behind the desk was very helpful friendly and easy to communicate with He took care of our bags and showed us round the whole hotel and then to our room before he left us to settle in he made sure the air-conditioning was on and working and that the room was clean and we had everything we needed including towels The bed was king-size and not separate mattresses so no risk of one of us falling into the middle The bed was clean and comfortable and we had extra pillows and blankets in the wardrobe should we need them We had a tv which was very small and a distance away from the bed but it worked and I rearranged the persistioning of it to suit us I emailed before hand to ask if the rooms had a kettle and the replied with yes but there wasn't one in our room when I asked about it they said they would bring one but they didn't so we ended up buying one from the local supermarket There wasn't much room on the balcony because they had the big air-conditioning mechanism on there which blew out hot air and was quite noisy but we had the best view over looking the pool and the hotel sat in the middle of the mountains so either side was magical to look at The bathroom was large had plenty of light and contained a hair dryer and shaving mirror The shower cubicle was a proper cubicle where you have to step into and it had glass doors to keep the water where it should be The shower itself was easy to use and powerful We had ample towels and clean ones delivered every day Our bins were changed every day and our room cleaned most days accept when we told our friendly cleaning lady not to bother Our sheets were also changed throughout our stay The room it self was very basic and tired looking it could do with a spruce up and a new fridge which was clean but old The hotel itself is old and tired and definitely needs some redecorating and bringing upto date They don't have adequate hand rails up the steps around the hotel and there are many steps the rails move about when holding onto them and they feel very dirty They have ramps next to the steps but they are to steep and you end up running down them and when using the ramps to wheel your cases your dicing with health and safety The hotel has two pools one for children and families and one adult only Children and families were often in the adults only pool and eventhough there were signs that stated 14 years and over they still crept in But on complaint they were told to leave promptly by staff which they did There was ample sun loungers available and a covered seating area to seek shade from the sun The bar was very basic and limited on drinks they also didnt serve snacks or any kind of food not even crisps or ice-cream and they close at 6pm along with the pools Being above the pool we did observe the staff cleaning the whole area every evening and testing the water and adding chlorine when required Over to the dinner hall This was a large area and it was very canteen and basic Very tired looking The staff working to clear pots and wipe down tables worked very hard and were pleasant and helpful BUT (The food) oh my gods It was disgusting We had 3 things to choose from and was the same every single day and night Limited choice often cold and not all of it was labeled and the ones that were labeled were not accurately described what it was or it's ingredients and allergy awareness All the food we're turkish dishes and we had to guess what we were eating The look of the food which is a huge part of our eating experience was awful None of their salad dishes were labelled with allergies advisories or even what it was we were eating they had a lot of dips and mixed salads that were swimming in a sauce that we had to guess The bread every day was stale and they only had one toaster which was old and always dirty I have so much more to say about the dining and food but it turns out im out of space

We have just returned from this fantastic resort and had such an amazing time!!! I visited with my wife and 8 year old child and stayed in one of the bungalows with shared private pool. The staff were all amazing and couldn't do enough for us! It's very down to earn and not a "snooty" place, giving a really good family friendly atmosphere.

Vernon Barber

We have just got back from this poor rundown hotel, the pictures are very old pictures as it is nothing like the hotel actually like, cannot fault staff, music is played night and day very very load and the arrogant entertainment guy just laughs when asked to turn it down, food very poor and repetitive, we were in an attic room alot smaller than on the photos and very run down rooms, shop expensive with poor and old stock, only one lot of toilets by the main pool, so had to keep going back to the room, would only go back there if it was cheap enough. Would only rate it as 2 star,

Overall really enjoyed our time at this resort. Rooms: One we had was basic and a little dated, fine for our needs. But they have a range. Staff: were very friendly and helpful. Facilities : In the main area, the resort has a large pool with shallow kids pool, and another pool with slide. There are more pools scattered throughout resort for swim-up rooms, and an adults only pool too. They have a Spa. Sky and Oscar were very persuasive and we enjoyed fantastic, relaxing massage treatments. They offer large range of treatments. They have bars located around main pool area, near snack bar and in main reception lobby. Activities: Throughout the day there's activities for kids and adults at set times from aqua aerobics, water polo, darts, french boules, air rifle shooting. There is a kids club that has activities such as painting/colouring, play area, face-painting, and one day they had a pizza making activity. Evening have a kids disco, and a different show each night, Turkish dancing, singers and more.

Ian Carney

Isolated, not safe to walk, roads very poor, rooms are desperate for a revamp, service was OK when they had finished talking amongst themselves, only decent service was the reception bar, but that's front of house, shop there was a rip off (captive audience), meal times food was stone cold and repetitive, service there was hit and miss had to go for own drinks on several occasions then got stared at when we did so, food at snack bar was alot better quality and hotter, however on several occasions had to wait too long when others received their orders before us even though we had ordered before them, head waiter needs more up to date method of sorting his orders out, napkins and loose bits of paper doesn't work in the 21st century, plus the pools were Baltic(more like therapy than leisure) but the kids club was excellent for our grandchildren who certainly enjoyed themselves there.

First word …..AMAZING I have just got back today from a week at the Sahra Su with my sister, and it is the best holiday we’ve had. Security is top, barrier and security guard, you feel like your walking into luxury on arrival, bag collection on arrival , even at 2am, the lighting of the entrance makes you feel like royalty in itself Surrounded by beautiful views of the mountains, this little gem has the perfect combination of wonderful staff, Sky, Deniz, Mohammed, Mumat, and many more, entertainment, food, amenities etc , Nothing is too much trouble. The Spa (Sky and her wonderful team of ladies) will treat you like royalty and make you feel a million dollars ❤️ try the Tea!! Mohammed in the barbers and beauty salon will then get you looking a million dollars. For coming up to end of season the entertainment is perfect, if I can learn to belly dance…..so can you! There is food for every taste and so delicious, with a snack bar (more like full meals 🤣) on had throughout the day for the seriously fussy eaters, pizza, cheese burgers , fries, waffle bar 5-6pm, a lady that will make beautiful pancakes, and cocktails ( no complaint there), We were in room 316 which is in the rafters, was small but very much did its job and the cleaners do an amazing and beautiful job, Tip well, they so deserve it, I spent all my money tipping within the first 3 days, no one asked or presumed to get, they were all so just deserving of it, which comes to my only con of the holiday……. No cash machine. They do take card and GBP if you like cats you will be in heaven as I was, if you don’t like cats just don’t feed them, they won’t bother you There is no where really to walk but I was on the tread mill in the gym , you can also get a taxi for around £5 approx to the nearest town and before you say , what £5 , you will say it was well worth it for the savings you will make for your shopping and eating out I will be back next year and urge anyone to just try it, you won’t be disappointed ❤️

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

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

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.

Louis Hutchinson

Would definitely go back. The staff were great, the animation/entertainment team made our week such good fun. Loved having the music by the pool. Food was good as-well and the vibes at the bar were great. Good to have the shops/barber/tattoo place on site aswell. Would recommend to anyone wanting to have fun on their holiday.

Raz C

We stayed here for 2 weeks as a family of 9, with a 2 year old child and I can firmly say I’ll never stay here again you couldn’t pay me too, the food was probably the worst food I’ve ever ate let alone seen, I think you’d get fed better in jail. Chips, rice and what ever chicken/beef/turkey in just a watery slop, brekfast was disgusting the food looks like the same food that was out the day before the only thing that is fresh is the salad and in fairness that wasn’t bad but we are not rabbits and cannot survive on that. The drinks were very limited and were certain all the soft drinks were either max’s or diets. And that’s if you was lucky enough for the soft drink machine to work😂 - the hotel rooms wernt bad but the mattresses was as good as sleeping on a concrete floor. The managers were helpful to a certain extent in fairness but I suppose you get what you pay for. Wouldn’t recommend - great potential but unfortunately no where near it to be a good hotel. How it is a 4 star is beyond me, I’d dread to stay in a 2/3 star.

Lee Montgomery

Stayed in Kaya Maris end of September through to Mid October. Hotel is in a great location literally 60 seconds from the beach front where’s there a whole load of bars restaurants and water park with in a 1 to 15 minute walk and turn the other way you are again 2 minutes away from the main shopping street. The hotel itself is a pleasant little family run place with the majority of staff working there very helpful in fact the only colleague who I thought was rude was a heavily built chap on reception early in the morning, the restaurant food is edible and is what you tend to find in all inclusive resorts chicken, rice, chips, vegetables etc the rooms are small and there isn’t a lot of wardrobe space but it’s adequate for a couple just bring a few hangers, the rooms are a typical Turkish hotel theme white walls with dated counters but they were kept very clean by a maid who is quite possibly the nicest person in the hotel. There is a small shop attached to the hotel and they are open until the early hours selling drinks chocolates cigarettes and alcohol as well as some toys for the pool. There is a jewellery shop also onsite selling silver items and watches. The pool area is clean however there is a few guests that get up early to get their towels on the sunbeds the pool isn’t overly deep and makes for a pleasant swim the private beach area does need cleaning up as there are a lot of cigarette butts just thrown on to the sand so a few bins could help this. The pool bar is open until 11 but do serve their drinks in small children party cups if they served them in beakers it’d be a lot better. As advertised the Kaya Maris doesn’t have entertainment at all although as I said earlier there’s a lot of bars and restaurants around you to keep you busy. All in all the Kaya Maris is a nice pleasant hotel if you are holidaying as a couple or group of adults it’s not really set up as a child friendly place

How this hotel is a 4star is beyond me the rooms air con is a waste of time it’s so hot here at the minute not had a proper nights sleep since Iv been here . The bed is like sleeping on a stone slab it’s so small & low . The food is rubbish same thing every morning fried eggs never really your lucky if the guy that cooks um is actually there . Dinner food ( I wouldn’t call it a meal ) is worse your waiting around for the to cook the food outside. Can’t get a sunbed at all the or a chair at night for the one bar . The only good thing about this place is the shop it’s open 24 hrs and not a bad price and the rooms are clean

Gary Gordon

Lovely staff, clean rooms, but the food was absolutely atrocious the cheapest of cheap food was dished up everyday chicken nuggets chicken dish boiled up beef tough turkey all in disgusting sauces and everyday there was the same old mackerel? no ice cream ,no custard. Fried eggs in the morning were burnt on the bottom and snotty on the top I asked for a easy over eggs and look what I got picture included. Bar shuts at dead on 11 and then he turns all the lights off so you're sitting in the dark enough to say go up to your rooms now so if you want to lose weight this is the hotel avoid.

Just returned from an absolutely fantastic holiday at Hotel Kayamaris. Came as a guest and felt like I left as a member of the family. From the initial greeting from the receptionist to the amazing, friendly and wonderful restaurant team. They all work tirelessly and as a team and seem to enjoy doing what they do. The rooms are clean, not the most modern but perfectly adequate for your stay. Pool area just as nice for a chill. Food is what it is, sometimes it’s excellent, other times it’s okay - but it’s never bad. The waitresses work tirelessly to ensure you’re looked after. The chef is always topping food up & the manager of the restaurant runs it well. Food is available throughout the day. Excellent bar staff who work long days. It was really quiet upstairs which meant a lot to me as it meant I could chill and relax after long days exploring. It’s also off the main road so a bit quieter for that too. Hotel works really well with tour operators to provide smooth shuttles / transfers to / from airport. Honestly, it was a brilliant experience & I’m already missing the place - I cannot recommend it enough. Special mention to Zehra. Brilliant staff member.

John Ward

Great hotel to stay in . The rooms are comfortable and clean with a decent size balcony and good air conditioning. Service is first class with very friendly staff and everyone is very welcoming. Location is very good and everything is on your doorstep. The food and drinks selection here is first class , it's varied, well presented and tasty. The pool areas are good and the water is warm. Great views are to be had from the seating areas around the hotel with a great view of the sea. There's a gym , sauna and steam room.t The private beach area is great to Overall a really good hotel

Laura Minde

When I travel, it is important for me to have a view of the sea and the mountains. I got everything in this hotel! I had a difficult time in my life, I was traveling alone, I chose this hotel to celebrate my 40th birthday. The hotel staff made sure it was my best birthday ever! I will always be grateful for the special treatment! Upon arrival at the hotel, my suitcase was taken to the room and everything was explained. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The room was very clean, everything was carefully cleaned every day. I had the best house keeper! The food was very tasty and varied. I really liked the spacious sauna. I liked the evenings with live music. The guy who serves wine or other drink at dinner was very kind, friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is very good, as you can walk to the center of the town along the sea itself. I really hope to come back to this same hotel someday. :)

Orsolya Fazakas

Great hotel for great price! All inclusive is great! Entertainment is excellent!! Hard-working staff! However, one thing that I felt it was lacking, was selection of kebabs and lack of sauces, such as garlic sauce.

Kelly EL Hage

It's an amazing place to spend a family vacation! Lots of high quality food varieties are presented daily.The staff is very friendly and helpful. Each evening presents an entertaining show to complete your day too. The hotel is very well maintained and cared for; permanently being cleaned and tidied by the staff. I vigorously recommend it!

Jeff UK

I stayed here for 2 weeks October 8-22 2024 had a suite room Emre hotel no complaints. The food 9/10 alcohol 9/10 service 10/10 I would definitely come back here again in the future not really much I could say negative about the place ❤️

Sam Bailey

Cocktails were great! Food was good Pool and the indoor pool were very cold to the point we didn't swim! Around the pool and indoor pool wasn't very clean Cleaners did the basics, there was a section of false eyelashes stuck to the wall in the bathroom (from the previous person!) and it took about 5 days for them to be removed. Staff were friendly Entertainment was fairly good, the same acts each week though Only a few mins walk from the beach Overall, it was nice enough for the money. Just be warned, the rep who sells all the excursions will get u on your first day and push u to book trips there and then, even offering a "free" extra trip shopping in Icmeler which actually turned out to be....a trip to 1 shop and back again, which is actually offered by the shop itself on billboards in the local area. So very disappointing when u think u are going for a day out and get that. We left and went exploring ourselves and walked back along the sea front instead

Emily Shufflebotham

We came at the end of the season and we can still say we had a lovely time. The only thing that would stop me coming back was how rude the customers were. The hotel itself was lovely and there were plenty of food options. The staff were very friendly. There are signs all over the hotel saying to please be quiet after midnight and we were being woken up at 2/3 o clock in the morning to people shouting at each other and laughing loudly in the corridors. Entertainment was good considering it was end of season and there was still a reasonable amount of things to do around the local area.

Scottish

This hotel would have got a 5 star review if they had dealt with a disturbance between a couple who kept our family awake two nights in a row. On raising the issue, they seemed not bothered about the situation or our paid holiday for some peace and quiet. Also, there is lots of transient footfall in the corridors and noise. Staff were brilliant, the food was good, the hotel was very clean and nice. Entertainment was medeoka compared to other similar hotels. Night time access to any food after last meal time was nil, so if you wanted a late snack, there was nothing available. Had a good holiday otherwise. I would use this hotel again. Oh, the holiday rep tried ripping us off with excursions/overcharging and harassed us on the telephone, which aggravated us!

saghar bahrami

I will not stop until I feel I am done fighting this battle of racism. For anyone out there who doesn’t want to stay in an environment which is filled with vibes of racism. The agency I work with told me that they didn’t accept my reservation because I am not Turkish. It’s a freaking hotel, do you do reservations just for the locals? It is a case of racism in bright lights, they simply rejected me because of my nationality. Please be aware.

sarah bell

Lovely staff and hotel, food was ok we didn't starve, some occupants very loud at night but a call to reception they send someone to ask them to keep noise down. Beds are clean but hard. Pool freezing but to be expected in November as nights are cold.

Jeni Eneva

I was on the hotel for 7 days! I like the yard, it has bars, a lot of pools! For five stars hotel It has minuses! The rooms are very small for 3 people. The lighting in the rooms was very dim! On to the food It was good, but not perfect. The staff was very good. They were very kind with guests! They did their job very well! In general it was very well! It’s so beautiful! The location is top!

Dina Laila

We stayed there 7 days last week. I loved the environment, everyone seems friendly, specially the staffs. I am leaving this 5 stars review for the friendly environment and one chef who specifically stays front of the dining area, She adores my son so much and I loved that. My son liked her very much, she is the cutest. Everything was very clean and they maintained hygiene properly. The food quality is good.

jean Robis

I've never been all-inclusive, but I didn't think it was my kind of holiday But blue bay, you have converted me. We stayed in apartment 3404, rooms clean and spacious beds really comfy Housekeeping... our lady was fantastic thank you for looking after us. Spent a lot of time at the relax pool. Alex the bar man was the best kept the place pours a good beer. Thank you. Food was excellent good choice every day. Serving staff work damn harm. All in all I had a great time.

James Fuller

I wouldn’t stay here if you are after decent rooms, when booking asked for a high floor and quiet room and had a 2nd floor out of 6 and wasn’t quiet at all. Booked a double room and came as a twin so had to move the bedside table and push beds together. No table and chair like picture showed, only had 2 blankets that felt more like towels not the one purple sheet it looked like when i upgraded room. Room wasn’t swept once in the 8 nights we were there, towels wouldn’t get changed even when put on floor/shower as asked. Free Wifi was slow at best and unusable 50% of the time. Got locked out our room and had to go back to reception to get the room card looked at. They don’t clean under furniture or wipe the drawer handles. Mini fridge door was broken so kept falling off, and didn’t get that cold. Shower above is quite loud. Beach/pool towels were very small and towel hut only open a few hours a day. Food was okay with dinner being the best, good that there’s a snack bar open most of the day.

Tamara Williams-Harding

This hotel is far from a 5 star! Whilst the location is ideal for exploring Marmaris and getting to the beach, we encountered several issues during our stay. I had emailed the hotel twice before our arrival requesting a ground floor rooms, I've still yet to receive an acknowledgement or response to my emails. We arrived early in the morning and was told one room was on the 5th floor and the other was on the 1st but in a different building, we were told to take those rooms and then once the manager arrives at 10am we can asked to be moved. Rooms: The 5th floor room (for 2 adults) was very small and needed a good clean. The 1st floor family room was very dated, mould and cracks in the bathroom and wasn't cleaned properly. It was located at the back of the main building and the view was of alleyways. The window didn't close properly and the stairwell to get to the room was filty. Luckily our grandparents were moved to a 3rd floor room which was much nicer, we were told that we would have to bring all their luggage down ourselves and give the key back whilst we sat and waited in the lobby for the room to be ready (no offer of help from management who could see me struggling with 2 elderly people, 1 in a wheelchair and 1 using a stick plus their suitcases). The manager also refused to move us from the otherside of the hotel so that we could be closer together so we made the most out of it. The hotel bedding is awful, really cheap thin material. The towels have seen better days, cheap toiletries and cheap toilet paper. Our next door neighbours had an all day and all night party on our first night, we had to call reception a few times because the noise (screaming and drunk girls running up and down the corridor) got so bad. It eventually got quiet after 3AM and we were able to sleep. Food: The ice cream parlour was one of the highlights of our stay otherwise the food was bland and repetitive, lots of food but it was the same thing everyday! Service: The entertainment staff were friendly and really helped to create a holiday atmosphere, the serving staff were always very helpful. Overall: Overall good service from the majority of staff but I was disappointed in the quality of everything. I was expecting much better quality from a 5 star hotel. Definitely would not recommend this hotel.

Pascal Terjan (CMoi)

We had a great stay, very relaxing. The views are wonderful, it is in a quiet area just outside town with a nice walking path along the sea to the center. Food was varied enough and we always found something to enjoy (special mention to the lahmacun one evening). Staff was helpful and friendly. The room we got on the top floor of the main building (which was presented as an upgrade from the bungalow we had booked) was large but very dark and had very few power sockets available, one being just on top of the pillow in the middle of the bed, others requiring to unplug a lamp (even the kettle shared one with a lamp).

Ekaterina Paramonova

The location is fantastic. The views from the balcony of our bungalow were amazing. The rooms are a bit outdated. Cleaning of the rooms is not perfect, one can find some dust here and there with a bit of effort. On the other hand, there is a lot more fun stuff to do then check for dust. The food was good with sufficient choices. Entertainment was well arranged.

Beautiful central position, great for walks, no beach/sand but nice Waterfront. Can hop on a water taxi at the cost of 200 lira (£5) each way. Entertainment could be better but if you're staying and able try to secure a high room to be able to see the beautiful vista view

I spend few days in Labranda hotel for summer holiday. First of all I like the hotel, it's huge hotel, with many good fasilities. The location is very nice, quite far from city center, quiet , calm, nice seaside. The room was super ok, with balcony, clean everyday. During summer they have different entertainment every night. The food was ok actually but for 5 days we spend there seems not that much varieties , but still ok for sure. Some of the staffs I don't know when they knows you are local people they will treat you not as same as foreigners (more like not friendly I guess) which is funny , i am not turkish but I went there with my partner (and he is turkish) :) . Anyway, all things are absolutely awesome actually . Oh and one thing at least the housekeeping staffs are super amazing, smiling, and very helpful :) . On our arrival they didn't created that , but then the following days , (We were not on honeymoon ) but everyday they made lovely hearts interior from the towel , that's super sweet and lovely 😍. Well, overall I like the hotel, everything are awesome!! Thanks 🫰

The first two rooms were substandard and unacceptable, we paid for standard bungalow with terrace. The first flat was dark, had no balcony and no view, the second flat had a view and q balcony but the shower flooded the bedroom and the lights flashed on and off and it smelt of sewerage within two days. The last room was supposed to be superior. It was OK but I wouldn't call it superior. The hotel is tired and in desperate need of an update. The food was the same everyday, cups and cutlery often dirty and we had power cuts every day nearly all day.

Our week-long stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience (8 out of 10 overall). The food was good, though not extraordinary. With snacks available throughout the hotel, you’ll never go hungry, even if you miss a meal. Bars are conveniently located around different areas as well. The rooms were clean, thanks to daily cleaning. The beach is just a short walk from the hotel and is well-maintained. One of our favorite spots was the coffee shop with an incredibly friendly staff. The only downside is the lack of entertainment options in the evening.

The arrogant staff members paired with underwhelming rooms and appalling food service is what gives this hotel its bad rating from me. When we first arrived at the hotel, the staff were friendly but that was due to change. We were showed to our “Sea View Room” (that we paid extra for. We walled into the room and the first thing we did was check the view, and we were appalled. The so called “Sea View Room” that we were given, was just a wall to the side with trees obstructing the entire view of the sea from the balcony. When we went downstairs to complain about the room, the staff were incredibly arrogant. They insisted that the room was a sea view room. It eventually took them 4 days- of our 10 day trip- to move our room. On the first few days on our trip, we were excited to see the food services and to say we were underwhelmed by it would be an understatement. We joined the seemingly endless queue for the “buffet” and once we saw the amount of options there were, we were just annoyed. They had an incredibly limited number of options, and over the nights we stayed the food seemed to be the same every single day. The kids club and pool-side entertainment were not active even though they were advertised as being open. In conclusion, please look elsewhere for a hotel. It’s really not worth the price.

Becky Lowden

Loved our holiday here. Was so relaxed. Our room was sea view, which was beautiful to look out on, especially in the mornings. The waiters and bar staff were always so friendly and welcoming. One of the young beach boys knew what we wanted to drink before we even asked, and the majority of the waiters were very attentive. A few of the ladies at reception could be more friendly and crack a smile. Icmeler is only a 20 min walk from the hotel. Lots of see and do here. Never went into Mameris as a lot busier and a tad further. Icmeler is the closest to a cash machine, without being charged. Will definitely be back but with our daughter next year.

We staid in this hotel for 10 nights. From start it’s look like a nice hotel but every day we discover more and more issues! Lifts are horrible! In main building where it’s restaurant it’s working only one lift and sometimes it didn’t work at all, so you have to walk by stairs 5 floors and there no lights, also lift doesn’t have fan inside witch mean it’s like in microwave. One day I found a long hair in plate with pickles During the vacation 90% of food was same, and sometimes you can see sausages for 3 days first boiled after fried and then boiled again, I don’t think this is healthy for kids Toilets next to reception couple of days was flooded witch it’s disgusting! Also we ask our parents to meet them in this hotel and they flew from another country. They’ve got a room on top floor. In their block lift doesn’t work for 2 days, image how was to climb 5 floors for elderly people. On check out day we have fly on midnight and we ask on reception if we can do late checkout, or maybe to keep one room for couple of hour for 2 families, first reception ask for 80€ and after that they said it’s not possible because they have reservations for this 2 rooms! All good but 3 days before one of my friend has same night fly and reception offer for free to him to say in room till 4 pm. I’ve been in different hotels in turkey but definitely this one doesn’t deserve 5 stars! And doesn’t worth money witch they ask for! Don’t recommend it !!!

Silvia Liefers

Jacuzzi room is perfect, but also other rooms are good. Just don't book the economy room, you will face a blind wall. Seaview is great, food is delicious and staff is very helpful.

Chelsea Parker

Absolutely stunning hotel, the food is great and so many different options even for the fussiest of eaters like myself. The staff can not do enough for you and are very polite, you barley have to lift a finger. entertainment at night is good. The 24 hour bar is great even if you just want a coffee. The only issue I do have is then sun bed situation around the pool, even at 7 in a morning you was lucky to get a sunbed but on the plus side you did have the jetty and private area of the beach.

Cat Watmough

Been here Twice. Both times was amazing. Lots of food to choose from drinks okay. Nice quiet area of Marmaris strip only a few mins walk to bars shops. Beach was good the jetty was even better service from the lad was 10/10 wifi was good through out

Linda Hawkswell

Lovely hotel with friendly helpful staff who work long hours. An adult only complex which made fur a relaxed holiday. Okan, the photographer, did a photo shoot of my son and I, he is a very talented guy. He was also very caring and helpful when my son was poorly.

Laura Cowling

I already can't wait to go back! The hotel itself is clean and very well decorated and looked after, the rooms are really spacious, free mini bar topped up daily with soft drinks and a few beers, the staff are what make the hotel, they are all so lovely! The manager couldn't have done anything more to accommodate. The waiters are all fantastic Enes, Lily & Salih made our holiday so much more fun , the service was amazing although we were told by other guests if you tip the staff at the start of your holiday they'll look after you better and I will say, you can see the difference, If you pay all Inclusive for a 5* you should be getting what you paid for however, if you don't tip your drinks will be weaker/off brand alcohol maybe.. it was good for us because we aren't big drinkers but if you want to get drunk it'll take a while the premium spirits aren't as strong. Putting that aside this didn't hinder our experience, we still had the best holiday, the entertainment was amazing every night it's something different and just incredible! We ate at the fish Al a carte restaurant and it was a great experience, service and food was faultless. Beste looked after us very well. The two ladies in the spa who did our Balinese massage and Turkish bath were incredible, if you stay here you must visit the spa!! The only thing thing which was annoying was some of the parasols are quite broken and hard to use. We met such lovely people here, everyone just wants to be your friend. It's great! As a side note for same sex couples - we were unsure how acceptable it might have been, in the hotel we felt comfortable there, we were just more cautious outside of the hotel.

We stayed at Casa Maris for 7 nights in June 2024. Overall it is a good hotel but not a 5 star. Pros - Room - large room size with good amenities. Rooms were clean, had good air conditioning and was cleaned daily. Hotel is also very clean. - Excellent entertainment team - entertainment team were great at making you feel welcome especially Anastasia. - Staff - 95% of the staff are friendly, provide great service. Thank you to Emre from the restaurant team, Elif guest relations, salih from the snack bar and AbdurRaheem from the reception team. - Variety of food - food in the buffet restaurant did offer a lot of variety. There is also a snack bar open 12-4pm which offers burgers pizzas etc. there are two a A la carte restaurants you are allowed one visit to one of the restaurants per 7 nights stay. We tried the fish a la carte and the food and service were good. Great service by the omelette and egg ladies. - Spa - spa was very clean and we enjoyed the hammam and the massage, we did this twice. Spa staff are excellent. - Pool - good size and kept clean although was 1.5 metre high so not great for those who can’t swim. - Entertainment - was mainly good but geared towards older people. Did not enjoy the entertainment every night. Cons - Favouritism for the Turkish guests - some hotel staff tend to provide special treatment to the Turkish guests. On one occasion we had asked one of the male general managers who said his name was Sairat / sara if we could have a small table for the entertainment (as they usually do this) and he said there wasn’t any and two minutes later a Turkish couple came and he greeted them with a kiss and bought them a table straight away and then told us there was some chairs at the back. Found this very rude and unprofessional - did ask him about it but he had nothing to say.. - Room - good size but we had paid for aa Partial side view however it was difficult to see the sea unless you pop your head out to the side. - Food - food is quite bland and lacked seasoning and sometimes the food was overcooked although there was lots of variety but similar food served on most days. - Some unfriendly staff - did find a few of the staff to be unfriendly, Moody bartender in the inside bar called. Bar staff at pool bar were a lot friendlier. - Entertainment - entertainment was provided every night although did not enjoy it most nights felt like it was more for the older guests. Could do with some more interactive games during the day.

Stuart Mcleary

Had a week here earlier this month with the family! Absolutely loved it from start to finish. Staff were absolutely outstanding. Friendly and full of banter! Made a big deal over my boy who turned 5 when we were there. Staff filled baloons and reserved us the table we’d sat at all week and all sang happy birthday etc. whole family loved it 👌👌

Lisa Marie

Excellent place to stay rooms clean and the food and pool was amazing.. Good all round. Definitely stay again

aminur rahman

A good 30 minute walk from the beach, but there is a bus service that will get you there in 10 mins. The staff are really good, attentive and very friendly. Went above and beyond. The food is really good offering a mix of traditional Turkish dishes as well as British and even some Indian/Chinese too. You have to pay extra air conditioning. The rooms are fairly spacious and the beds are comfortable. The staff here are brilliant. Overall quite a satisfactory stay.

Ryan Sumner

The hotel is great value for money. The hotel rooms are very basic, but that is reflected in the price. You'll also find yourself paying for optional extras, such as air conditioning (£8 per day), safe box and, bizarrely, toilet roll. The pool is great, and the water slide is good fun. Hotel was at capacity for the most part and we never struggled to get a sun lounger. Bar and restaurant are very reasonably priced, didn't eat too much there, but food quality was fine. Staff are super friendly and attentive. Location is good, around 5 mins in a cab (about 20-30 lira) to Long Beach (or 20 minutes walk if you're up to it) and 10 mins in a can to the Marina/Grand Bazaar (about 30-40 lira). You can also get the bus from outside the hotel which goes straight in to the Marina. There's also a few bars/restaurants around 10 mins walk away. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Darren Genther

Loved the place. Jack, Alfie and the rest of the staff made you feel very welcome. Food was excellent and service 2nd to none..everyone worked hard and long hours and always had a smile and time to chat with you. These guys made my holiday! Room was clean and maids came in every day. Good pool with a water slide. Only down side was I had to come home!

Alex Paraschiv

I was unsure between giving it 4 starts or 5 stars, in my mind it should be 4.5 stars. During the stay my experience was pleasant, the staff was helpful and kind and the room that I received was huge ( you could fit another family in there without any issues). The reason i hesitated to give it 5 stars was because of small issues we had, for example the bathroom door was mad out of frosted glass and not a solid door as we saw in the pictures or because of the bizarre cleaning schedule that would wake me up at around 5 AM because of the noise of the machine they were using to scrub the walk ways. What we really enjoyed was the excellent and varied food, the open bar that you would be able to take a free drink ( alcoholic or nonalcoholic) up until midnight and the private beach.

Josh Willingham

This was an amazing experience with this hotel well definitely be returning again and again as the staff are soo friendly and helpful with everything that you need. Definitely recommend this place to everyone as its fair prices and location is key as its on the beach front with amazing views

Helen Challis (Helz)

Just back from a 2 week stay at Pasha beach hotel. Travelled as a couple. Check in was hassell free and the bell boy was very helpful, took our cases and showed us to our room. We were on the 3rd floor with a view of the other side of the hotel looking down on the entrance of the hotel, this wasn't any issue as we have never minded really what view we have. Room itself was clean, had 3 beds which for us was a waste of space but no issue, however the lack of storage which was an issue could of been resolved by getting rid of the single bed. Kettle in the room, small fridge, and nice bathroom with a great shower. 1 usable plug socket which to me seemed wrong? My biggest gripe was paying for the use of a safe, which intermittently broke. We both thought that charging for a safe was wiped out years ago, how wrong were we, 1,000 lira for the stay. Room cleaned daily, kind of, the cleaners we could see had their job cut out for them, most days our room wasn't touched until 3.30 -4 pm bearing in mind we left the room around 9-10ish and they were hard at it then. If we had returned to our room before it had been cleaned it didn't get touched and when we asked for extra toilet paper I thought we were going to get thrown out. The lady who cleaned our room was lovely but others were just cross about everything. It appeared there were just too many rooms and not enough cleaners. Hotel facilities were adequate. Really poor WiFi which was neither here nor there as we don't tend to use our phones on holiday, however when we did require wifi it just dropped out. In house spa was beautiful and staff were friendly and welcoming. Would recommend. In house shop and barbers great too, again staff were lovely. 2 pools, one with slides which we didn't actually use, and another pool close to the main bar. Neither were big at all and sun beds were pushed together to maximise space. Everyone was on top of each other. The beach was OK, Couldn't always garauntee a sun bed as towels were out early doors. We saw, on a daily basis people on the beach using the beds for less than an hour yet leaving their towels from 7am to 7pm. The life guards were helpful and friendly. The hotel staff excluding the animation staff were not particularly friendly at all. Everything seemed too much of an effort for them, there was no personal touches with any of them, the bar and restaurant staff made no effort in customer relations at all, despite our best efforts.They had a job to do and that was that. Massively disappointing as between us we had never experienced this before. No one appeared happy. No greetings or eye contact, or friendly banter. There was a luggage room where you could leave your cases on the last day, this wasn't locked and anyone and everyone could walk in to it. Food...this for us was the biggest letdown. The buffet restaurant was poor, the same stews and fried foods every night. Salad smelt like it had been washed in disinfectant and barely any choice. Breakfast was OK and they did have a huge bread selection. We discovered the hotels Al la Carte restaurant by mistake as unless you asked you would never of known, it is stiuated at the bottom of the steps before the beach on the left, even the waiter told us that many people only discovered them on their last night. We chose to have breakfast in there most mornings, which we didn't budget for however the food and drink were lovely. The staff were lovely and their freshly squeezed orange juice was heaven. I would highly recommend using them. The evening menu is great The steak mushroom burger was amazing. We wouldn't come back to this hotel, it's so commercialised with no personal touches. That's not to say it's not a good hotel, it's clean and well situated. Just not a good hotel for us. There seems to be a huge shift in Turkey, prices have increased, no haggling over prices and the bars and restaurants in the evening don't seem as busy. Not that many brits in marmaris which the shops and bars seemed to be suffering for.

Alan Pollock

Paid all inclusive but had to go out and buy Bailey's as none at the bar. We got one bottle as one of the bosses got myself but had to pay for my own after that very un onhappy we should have been told that some drinks were unavailable no excuse that they are closing down at end off month .we did pay all inclusive not happy

Wiktor Polak

I recommend a holiday in this hotel, I think that 4 stars are well deserved. Great location with a beautiful view of the sea and mountains, several pubs and souvenir shops opposite, 30 minutes' walk to the center (or 5 minutes by local bus). Animations made by polite and very friendly animators every day, disco in the evenings. While reading the review, I found that plates with unattended food were taken away, I haven't encountered anything like that during my 7-day stay. The food is tasty, a bit repetitive, but I think everyone will find something for themselves there. However, the hotel has a few minuses that influenced my overall rating. I had the impression that if you come there for the first time, the hotel staff are not very polite, they do not engage in any long conversations, they look like they are working for punishment, unlike people who have been there for several times, talk and chat, etc. Reserving sunbeds is a failure, it is true that there is a private beach, but if you come after breakfast, no sunbed is free, that is, he is "reserved" with a towel, and for many hours there is no one there, the same is true at the pool, although the hotel asks guests not to reserve sunbeds before 8 a.m., but no one controls this :// Wi-Fi in the hotel is available practically throughout the entire facility, which is a plus, but functionality does not necessarily require frequent loss of coverage in the room, which does not even allow you to make a video call. Wi-fi is free and works best at the main pool and in the lobby. Another big minus is the paid safe of 2 euros per day, I thought it was included in the price like in most 4-star hotels. Adding to the hotel's location, it is right next to the promenade, a very pleasant place for evening walks. There is also a hotel restaurant by the beach, I didn't have the opportunity to try the food there, but I heard it was good. The rooms were clean, cleaned every day by very nice cleaning ladies. Overall, I recommend it, but when choosing Pasa Beach, pay attention to the things I mentioned.

You should be very careful when using the services of a tour operator or buying travel packages including accommodation at the four-star Palmea in Marmaris. You pay for and expect a standard room, and you find yourself in a hideaway on the attic floor - it's hard to walk without hitting your head on the cracks in the ceiling. The hotel has two swimming pools and also it is very close to the sea but you have to dry your bathing suits and beach towels on plastic chairs - no other way. You have to move the plastic furniture every time to open and close the terrace door. You cannot fully open this door, the width of the balcony is insufficient for this. There is no place to arrange the clothes, except for two special ones, which may be hanging on a hanger in the wardrobe in the hallway. In it, apart from these two clothes, there is space only for shoes (on the ground) and in the superstructure, around the safe, you can possibly put something up there, out of sight. Your clothes must be in the suitcase during the entire stay. Despite my tour operator's efforts to move me to a normal room, I've been living in this hideaway for the fourth day now. It seems this will be the worst 6-days accommodation in all my life. And the attic "rooms" aren't even mentioned on the hotel's website, but they exist and people stay there.

Maria Loghin

The worst one. I do not recommend it to anyone . Staff is very unfriendly, and the food is very poor. Boys from reception are very rude. For 7 days, we ate eggs and cheese for all our lives.

Aleesah Ali

The best hotel ever!!! The food.. exceptional .. fresh grilled food every single day. The service.. incredible! JIMMY and BEN, you made my trip so special. Cleanness - I wish the rooms were cleaned to a better standard, however housekeeping were more than happy to accommodate once we called. I love you guys and I’ll be back!

Shenika Davids

Poor food poor WiFi there was no wifi in the rooms at all had to buy a separate dongel to move around with which was at a extra 30 pounds charge rooms not clean bad service the only good thing ot was a short walk to where you could go shopping the shower was cold first thing in the morning and last thing at night omg the cats cats everywhere on the food tables begging at your feet for food climbing on table when you are eating very nasty the staff are rude aswell

Baby Suri

This has got to be the worst hotel I've been in my life. Where do I start... We arrived at 2.30am and was told we had to wait for 20 minutes for our room to be cleaned. The room was filthy. No kettle, no iron, ironing board, tea or coffee facilities. There is NO minibar, a dirty fridge with 2 bottles of water. The food is disgusting, the same stuff gets served everyday. My mum was sick on the way home. The manager screamed at my mum for not wearing her bracelet to show that we are all inclusive. The pool closes at 5pm and there is no entertainment. It's so boring there. Cats roam all over the restaurant and jump on the tables. The staff speak little or no English and they're very rude. There is No WiFi whatsoever so be prepared.

Stephanie Mcguckin

Had a great time staying at the Ada Julian hotel , Every single staff member at this hotel where excellent, They where really accommodating and the hospitality was great. The staff alone at Ada Julian hotel make it a lovely place to stay they are an absolute credit to the hotel. The food at the hotel was lovely and well presented and the staff member Erol was very friendly and professional ensuring we had the best dining experience at every meal. The hotel was clean and comfortable, everything is within walking distance, we will definitely be back and would definitely recommend 😁

emma mccallum

Stayed here a couple of times, recent stay in october. Great location,food wasnt great but not a huge issue. Room was nice, staff were polite, pool area peaceful glad its adults only. Only conplaint i have is when we checked out i left an outfit on the balcony i asked reception if i could go back up and get it or ask the maids if it could be left at reception. Apparently it wasnt there

Matthew Piasecki

Advertised on Expedia as “all inclusive” in Nov 3rd 2024. Management stated all inclusive is over despite not clarifying the start and finish dates in writing on the advertisement. Breakfast free. lunch/dinner/supper costs 15 euro. Drinks 150 lira each. Pay for spa service separately. No day visitors allowed.

Ali Paton

Just had 2 weeks in this hotel… great looking cation for the beach, bars and shops. we had a room overlooking the Main Street and were not affected by any noise. The food on the whole was lovely… breakfast was same every day but afternoon snacks always tasty. Great pool and sunbeds although a little tired, were pretty comfy. Staff were always helpful around the hotel and generally we had a fabulous holiday.

Andy Self

Great location, food is way below standard for a 4 star hotel. We are all inclusive and you are limited for food and snacks. The alcohol is watered down the wine is off but still being served and all the cocktails are made with syrups. Some staff look dirty as their clothes have marks and holes. The sun loungers are broken and the pool isn't very clean. All social areas look dirty and the furniture is worn looking, lots of glass marks on tables that haven't been cleaned.

michal s

Beautiful place , hotel and food is great although there is a lot of Russians and is better to stay at hotel as in the city they all want your money. My daughter was approached by some weirdo who was apparently some boss son. Not the best experience for me and my family overall. Spain is much better .

YJ W

Just had a 5-night holiday with two young children 3 and 6 in late October 2024. What I like about this place: 1. WiFi available on beach (but the coverage is not great) 2. Great view 3. Good ice cream and milkshake from 1100 to 1800 everyday. 4. There is real coffee from the coffee corner 5. The hotel offers a good value one day boat trip to some great places to swim and casual dive. 6. There is a path by the beach - great for relaxed and quiet walks to two nearby towns. 7. Take away from food court is handy. What I dislike about this place 1. Quality of food is not very consistent - two dinners basic and nothing special and two dinners above average. 2. There is a long queue everyday during dinner time. 2. No food between 2100 and 2300. 3. Gym closes at 2100 and opens at 0900. No chance for a morning or evening workout. 4. Uncomfortable beds and pillows 5. Kids club is basic and can only take 4+ 6. Lots of mosquitoes by the three outdoor pools. Overall, will I recommend this place to friends? This place is not perfect but can be shortlisted. Will I return in the future? Probably no.

Hannah Patton

We had a fantastic week at this hotel, visiting at the end of the season with our two children. It is quite a shady spot, so I imagine in very hot weather it is perfect, but at the end of the season the pools were quite cold. However, the sea was lovely for swimming and there is a good indoor pool with a great Turkish spa. Some reviews don’t rate the food, but we thought it was fab. Loads of choice, all cooked well and very tasty. When it’s busy the buffet area could be quite crowded. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and our bathroom looked like it had recently been re-done. Great shower. There isn’t a beach, so for young children there isn’t an option for playing on the sand and paddling. We didn’t use the kids’ club but it didn’t look very inspiring when we visited. Entertainment in the amphitheatre was ok but not much on as end of season. Imagine it’s much better in height of summer. We opted for the Asian meal as our a la carte option - I strongly recommend not to do this as it was quite bad. Of course we should have gone for Turkish in Turkey! Staff were kind and attentive, the kids loved our waitress Eva. Overall we loved this hotel and would recommend.

Sharon Rutherford

Beautiful location, clean and tidy, as a veggie/pescatarian I loved the food, so much choice, the salads are devine. Always somewhere to sit on the beach/pier. Saw some fab acrobatic shows and enjoyed the boat trip from the hotel. Hotel a bit old fashioned but that's not an issue for us. Our grandson had a wicked time. We would return. Would be great if the hotel could supply reusable cups and water chillers rather than water in plastic bottles.

Jo Davies

Honest review. Quite disappointed with this hotel, it is very dated and dark. Rooms are ok comfy enough and clean very small balcony, paid extra for a sea view but had a tree view also a couple of cockroaches first night reception said they would disinfect and didn't see anymore. The staff are amazing they are the best part of the hotel. We stayed for 10 nights and not once did we manage to get a sunbed round the pool or on either of the jetys. Gave up after a few days people must be putting towels down before 6am. The hotel is basically in the shade,so many trees. In my opinion the evening buffet in the main restaurant is very limited not much variety at all for the size of the hotel, lunch wasn't much better was a bit hit and miss if the pine bar was serving food. I tried the burgers twice and both times they were fridge cold started to go out for lunch. The noise from the 24hr bar kept us awake until 2am most nights. The staff are truly amazing though, ive been to Turkey many times different hotels towns etc. This is the only 1 I wouldn't go back to, very disappointed.

Emily

Everything was just okay. Rooms were fine, maybe just not as nice as the pictures alluded to and rather small. Food was typical repetitive all inclusive stuff, nothing special. Waiters are very biased, sucked up to some people for tips while others are ignored. I recall asking for a straw and watched as the waiter completely ignored me and stood chatting to his colleague. The highlight was the spa where we received 3 massages for a very reasonable price. The entertainment was great in a lovely area by the beach. A nice place for drinks and shisha. Rico as well as the entertainment team were also great. I highly recommend the jet ski’s in this area as the water is calm and the views are nice. It was also lovely to have a quiet adult only pool away from the commotion with more sun beds free.

Abdulloh Abduqayumov

Excellent hotel. Everything is clean. Nice design. The staff is polite and friendly. There were no complaints about the cleaning. The beach was fantastic, clean, vast and perfect for relaxing or strolling. If you are looking for a beach holiday, this hotel delivers on that. The food was another big plus. Every meal was delicious, with plenty of choice for every taste. Whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner, the culinary experience was first class. The rooms were a bit of a mixed bag though. While they had a certain wild charm, they weren’t new and this showed in some wear and tear. They were comfortable enough, but if you’re expecting modern amenities you may be a bit disappointed. One major downside was the distance from the hotel to the airport. The long drive there was tiring and made my trip less enjoyable. If you’re planning on staying here, just be prepared for a long drive. Overall, this hotel offers stunning views, a great beach and fantastic food, but the older rooms and long distance from the airport may be something to consider before booking.

Drew Speck

Just returned for second year. Once again fantastic Hotel and Staff Food very good- how do they do it all? Hotel super clean in all areas- staff dusting, hoovering, cleaning tables continuously Bar service astonishing-I didn’t wait 60 seconds for a beverage Entertainment staff really engaged my children - actually getting my shy 15 year old boy up and dancing 😃 Beach and sea front very well kept- always a sun lounger available It cost 3 times last years price, I searched and searched- waited last minute but couldn’t find it at a better price. Because it was such a nice experience last year I was unfazed at this years price. Let’s see what happens next year if we can go again

Louise Havercroft

Came in may, it is a lovely hotel the beach is right through the otherside some staff are very happy and interact with kids and parents, They have afternoon games and anything else you need, The only annoying thing is when they constantly come around the pool area to promote or get you to buy a massage or boat trips, etc. And also the songs by the pool I feel as though they are on a constant loop! They try to do different themes for dinner in the week, which is nice, but lunchtime is always the same food, especially in the pool bar area, The rooms are nice a little bit dated, the fridges are so loud though it's a bit hard to sleep with the noise. Definitely if you're a light sleeper like myself! Sun loungers, you have to go early to get one near the pool but not too early, or they will take your towels off the chairs. Slide into the pool, which is always a bonus for the kids! There is plenty to do through the town and so many activities for people to do.

Very clean, good food with plenty of choice. Reception staff Mertcan and Senem were brilliant, professional, cheerful, efficient and very very helpful. Waiters and barmen were excellent Firat who went beyond the call of duty to assist and udennis who should be working in a bar in the Ritz London. A really nice hotel manned by great staff. The combination of that and the good weather just made the whole holiday a joy. I will definitely be back.

Oct 2024 Myself and my partner have just returned from a 10 night all inclusive holiday at this hotel. It is located close enough to the beach (250 yards) but far enough away from the busy nightlife not to hear any of the beats. It was one of the best holidays we have had together. The staff were excellent, Maids, waiters/waitresses, cleaners, receptionist, Chefs and many more were the most helpful and polite staff I have met. The food choice and taste were excellent throughout the whole day. The entertainment was acceptable and both hosts worked very hard to please all aspects of the customers. I would definitely return to PD hotels. Thank you all for a very memorable, enjoyable relaxing holiday.

Myself and my wife stayed at this hotel for a short break. We had a fantastic time here. Location - close enough for shopping, not too noisy at night, little road noise even when sitting at the pool. Rooms - rooms were excellent, really well furnished, modern and comfortable. The cleaning staff (we were on floor 2) were excellent, friendly and worked with a smile on their face - room was spotless. Bar area and pool area - excellent. No difficulty in getting sun beds, pool good temperature. Staff at the bar once again excellent Nük and the guys (apologies I can't recall their names) were excellent, always served quickly and in a friendly manner. Drinks again excellent and consistent. Food - good selection, enjoyed the outside grill area. Would have liked more Turkish food available, but overall food acceptable and always found something nice to eat. The entertainment - acceptable, maybe could be improved for night time with acts/variance in performance. Both hosts worked very hard with limited resources, and friendly and definitely not pushy. I would definitely return to PD hotels. Thank you all for a very memorable, enjoyable relaxing holiday.

This hotel was "ok," and that's as good as it gets for me. Was shown to our room. Spoke good English when at reception but as soon as we got to the room and told them I wasn't happy with what we were given , he suddenly couldn't understand me. I'll post a picture of our room. 3 times I asked to move rooms. So, I had an aful view for 10 nights. It was mine and my husbands wedding anniversary whilst out there. I put this on the request dorm before flying out. Not once did they make us feel special, no congratulations....nothing! Our room was above the kitchen, we would be woken up at half 4 every morning to the sound of pans banging, staff shouting and the smell of cigarette smoke from the staff who was smoking just outside the kitchen. The entertainment was very repetitive. If you loved darts , then you're in for a treat. Every day without fail at 11 am. Scratch card at mid day, and that was it. Entertainment in the evenings was very basic. The location of the hotel is good. It's just off from the main strip, and you can't hear any noise from bars. The hotel was clean and tidy. The cleaners would always be polite and say good morning. I wouldn't come back to this hotel, I'm afraid

Sam Smith

A lot of positive and just a couple of negatives. Food was good plenty of choice and a microwave to heat up if you want as is with all buffet style food can be luke warm. Rooms spotless and clean not much storage space for clothes. Balcony quite small but ok if only 2 in room. Beer was ok but spirits leave a lot to be desired! Wine was awful. Staff were all really nice and very helpful! Holly and Ozzy do try to get everyone to join in but if you're firm but nice they do leave you alone!! You can tell they have no budget to work with for the entertainment they do their best with what they have.Had a great holiday but possibly wouldn't stay at this hotel again. Mo and Hassan behind the bar were amazing!!

Tony Carty

Great hotel, great price, very clean and everyone very friendly from barman, housekeeping, kitchen staff and especially the entertainment team. Always something going on weather darts, pool games, karaoke etc. Location was good, a few mins from the ocean and buses into the main strip. They treated the cats very well there which is always a massive plus. Iced coffee service is a game changer. Had to cut short holiday at short notice and they booked a taxi for me to run to the airport, would definitely come back.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it has some positives, there are several areas that could be improved to enhance the overall experience. Location: The location is fantastic, with great access to Icmelar taxis, water taxis, and within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants. The convenience of the location is definitely a major plus. Service & Room: Service could use some attention. The receptionist was unwelcoming at check-in, and there was no offer to assist with luggage. The room itself was basic, with WiFi that was slow but functional. Although the rooms were cleaned daily, it didn’t feel thorough—beds weren’t made, though towels, soaps, and shampoos were restocked. A safe was available in the room, but it came with an extra daily charge, which was a minor inconvenience. Staff: Most of the staff were friendly, though some were a bit too familiar, especially with female guests, which could make some feel uncomfortable. Amenities: The hotel is entirely self-service, so don’t expect poolside drink service. The pool looked inviting, but no one used it during my stay, possibly because it’s overlooked by the dining area and receives no direct sunlight. Indoors, the décor was quite plain, and the atmosphere felt a bit stale. Adding plants or some bright decorative touches on each floor could make the hotel feel more welcoming and warm, improving the overall guest experience. Beach & Facilities: The beach could use some extra attention—it wasn’t as clean as expected, and the deck chairs were placed too close together for comfort. That said, the swimming was fantastic. Oddly, despite serving wine, the hotel didn’t provide proper wine glasses. Having proper wine glasses would elevate the dining experience. Food & Dining: The highlight of the food experience for me was the salad bar, which was fantastic, offering a good variety of fresh and delicious options. The desserts were also varied and a real treat. One particularly enjoyable feature was the evening BBQ, which added a nice touch to the dining experience. However, the main meal selection overall was a bit underwhelming, and the lack of entertainment left something to be desired, especially compared to other hotels in the area. Overall: The hotel benefits from a great location, but it would greatly benefit from improvements in service, décor, and amenities. In terms of value for money, it's still pretty good.

I feel there are both pros and cons to this hotel. I will list them for anyone thinking of staying here and these are my honest opinions. Pros - - location is perfect, I’ve attached a picture of our hotel room view overlooking the sea. Everything is on your doorstep and there is a great strip of shops and bars within 10 minutes. As well as being directly opposite the beach, the canal is a 10 minute walk. - rooms are basic, but are cleaned everyday by a friendly team of women. It suited us for our stay. Including a fridge, safe and air con. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. - staff were always friendly and spoke decent English, had a bit of trouble with the WiFi but easily sorted. Cons - food, we didn’t enjoy a lot of the food at this hotel. We went all inclusive but only had a few meals here, the salad bar was nice. It may be personal taste as I haven’t been to Turkey before but the food wasn’t for me. There’s about 3/4 hot meal options, plenty of salads and dessert options. The good part of the food however is that they have an outdoor grill which was very nice. - rooms, the aircon wasn’t the best, don’t get me wrong it worked, but it wasn’t very strong. - staff, the staff were friendly, but some of the bar staff were a bit too ‘friendly’. Be careful if you’re going in a small group of girls as they may be flirty and intimidating. - pool, the pool is right next to the dining area and is quite small, you couldn’t do much swimming, more so for cooling off, but don’t think about getting a sunbed. This hotel has about 8 sunbeds next to the pool. I suppose a good thing about being next to the beach is that you get a beach chair on the beach. However the chairs were very cramped together and always had towels on them so were reserved for people who weren’t using them. Sales rep, we were told on arrival by reception that our ‘travel guide’ will be with us shortly, confused to this we went to our rooms, when I came down for the WiFi password a man greeted me and asked me to join him in a conversation regarding excursions. I got my friend and we sat with the rep (who we didn’t know). And he tried to sell us excursions. Just be wary of how much you pay for these trips, we didn’t book anything as he made out we had to book it there and then as we may not see him again (a lie as we saw him multiple times in our hotel). So be careful. Personally overall, it’s not a bad hotel, but I don’t think I would stay here again. Like any hotel it has good points and bad points. Friendly staff, good location, however food and pool area let it down a bit. But I would thank the staff for helping us when we needed it :)

Tracey Moffat

Update to initial comment: Spoke to Hotel Manager first thing Monday morning, he had seen my comments and said there was another room available for us to move into almost immediately, which was good news. Member of staff took me to the room and let me view and agree the swap, this one is so much better, we still have a sea view and it’s on the second floor (rather than the fourth floor). Room is definitely more spacious, clean and tidy and we are happily continuing our holiday. I passed on my thanks to the Hotel Manager and said I was very happy. NB. One thing I would say is if you get allocated a room on the top floor, be mindful that it may not be as expected….. (First impressions of hotel, tired looking, needs some TLC in various areas, room is VERY small and, feels claustrophobic. Could do with a deep clean and a fresh coat of paint and maybe a few bits of furniture updated and wardrobe moved from the immediate doorway. You just about get past with your suitcase, bathroom is very tiny, no handrail by sink for towels, needs a hook or two in the wall or door so you can hang clothes whilst showering.

Sophie Louise Parsons

Great location, no outside noise at all apart from buses and local traffic to go beyond the mountain. Room 404 had an excellent view of the beach & mountains. Room was small for my likings, but for a weeks holiday it made do. Cleaned regularly. Great selection of food & drink, timings for when food was available was given upon our checkin, which went smoothly even at 2am.

Charley Costello

Would definitely never book here again, I come to Turkey every year but would never come to this hotel again, the staff are rude and unhelpful or friendly. The food is disgusting we tried breakfast lunch and dinner the first day just to see if there was anything edible how ever there isn’t so we’ve now had to pay to eat out every day, nothing going on at the hotel very boring and disappointing hotel definitely would not come again and would strongly recommend to avoid.

John Craig

A wonderful resort. My wife and I had a 7 night break here in September 2024. It was just fantastic. The hotel was spotless, the staff were amazing and the amenities were first rate. We particularly enjoyed the cinema evening on the beach and the cocktail classes. The trip to Marmaris was just splendid. This is a great adult destination. There's not much for kids to do, but if sitting by the pool, or lounging by the idyllic waters at the private beach, sipping a cocktail and recharging your batteries is what you're after, this is the place to do it. Be mindful, the taxi from the nearest airport to the resort is approximately 90 minutes. It's not a bad journey at all. The shuttle drivers are super friendly and are happy to serve you a beer or wine during your trip.

Suzanne Tate

Stunning long weekend here in September 24. We will be back. Stunning waterside private location nestled in a quiet bay with a gorgeous private small shale beach. Stunning pool, amazing spa. The staff resolved a room issue we had promptly, nothing was too much trouble. All the food is freshly made to order. We did sunset yoga next to the beach and hopped on a water taxi for a day shopping in Marmaris. Lovely morning coffee by the pool with Ibiza chill out vibes wafting round the pool and beach. Superb. Like I say, we will be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Niesreen Khojah

The room is dark, there is no adequate lighting. There are no toiletries in the bathroom except shampoo, shower gel and soap. There are no robes. The slippers are of the worst kind. The food is bad. The self-service is bad. We left a cup of coffee on the balcony. It was not cleaned. The resort does not have adequate lighting. There are no activities or entertainment at night. It takes a long time to carry the bags from the room. Despite the proximity of the place to the reception, I do not recommend it.

samira vaghei

The location was excellent for both swimming and relaxing, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beaches. The staff were incredibly friendly, contributing to a fantastic experience overall. Marmaris is just a 15-minute boat ride away, adding convenience to our stay. It truly felt like a real vacation.

Mo El-Haj

We recently stayed at this picturesque adults-only hotel and overall had a pleasant experience. The setting is beautiful, with easy access to a pebbly beach and a large swimming pool. The breakfast offered a wide selection, and we chose not to go all-inclusive so we could explore Marmaris and sample the local cuisine, which was a great decision. The staff, particularly the cleaning lady, were very friendly, although the night receptionist was not as welcoming, which felt out of place for a hotel of this calibre. What I really appreciated was the stunning scenery, the clean seawater, the perfect pool temperature, and the attention to detail throughout the resort, such as the water refill points and the excellent breakfast selection. The air conditioning in the rooms worked flawlessly, and the coffee was fantastic—though sometimes slow due to limited staff. The hotel also organises daily activities, announced on their Instagram page, including yoga sessions, beach movie nights, boat trips, and other excursions, which added to the overall experience. However, there were a few downsides. The rooms were quite disappointing and didn’t offer much. They were sparsely furnished in a straw basket style with very dim lighting, which made the space feel dull. There were no drawers and limited space to hang clothes, apart from a small rail. It didn’t feel like a place we wanted to spend time in, other than for sleeping. Additionally, the hotel has three private beaches, but they aren't well advertised and don’t offer much difference between them. One even seemed to be outside the resort, and very few people appeared to notice its existence. The resort provides a single complimentary bottle of water as part of the welcome pack, but instead of informing guests about the convenient refill points available around the hotel, they make a point of saying only the first bottle is free, which seemed unnecessary. Another area for improvement is the reception staff. They provided minimal information, which made interactions feel awkward, especially when we were trying to find out what to do or see around the area. The receptionist who checked us in seemed rushed, spoke softly, and left us with a slightly underwhelming first impression when we were in the holiday spirit and looking forward to a more enthusiastic welcome. On the downside, the resort’s prices for food and drinks were quite high, which felt unfair given its remote location—about a 30-minute taxi ride from Marmaris. The road to the hotel is steep and winding, making the journey feel a bit risky with the local taxi drivers. While the water taxi service was a lovely option, it was unreliable and costly for groups larger than two. The breakfast service was another drawback. Moving away from a buffet style, guests have to request everything individually, which sometimes led to awkward interactions, such as asking for specific fruits or cheeses. While the coffee was good, there were long waits due to the limited number of staff preparing it. Additionally, drinks and food were priced at double what you'd find in Marmaris pubs. Lastly, there seemed to be a shortage of sunbeds at both the pool and beach, often reserved by guests who never showed up. The nearest mini-market is a 10-minute walk away, and beyond that, there’s not much nearby. Despite these issues, I would still recommend the hotel. It offers a very relaxing and enjoyable experience in a beautiful setting with plenty of activities to keep you entertained, but there are areas where it could improve to better match the expectations set by its beautiful location.

roy harrison

Very poor hotel. Not much to choose on the drinks. Very limited as all inclusive they turn the machines off at night. Long cues . Pool is very small for the size of the hotel. Food is repetitive not much to choose from. If you like fish then your ok. Every thing is cold. Most of the people went and ate out. Soon as you arrive you get asked to book your trips. 100 percent don't do it with these. Think is name was Joe. They charged double it Cost me £450 for all what we choose. Same thing accross the the road and its £220 . One day no one picked us up and they dint let us no that the day/time changed. Asked for a refund. Not a chance. Went to Turkish bath. That was approx 3 hours. Took 7 hours in total as there wasn't anyone else going back in the area we was staying. So we had to wait 4 hours sitting around then missed a boat trip ride we sorted. Dint get a refund on that ithere. Spoke to (joe) wasnt intrested at all . Wasted a day on that.

Reba Khan

I stayed at this hotel from the 31/07/24 to 07/08/24 total of 7 nights with my husband and 3 year old son. I knew this was a 4* hotel so I did not have too much high expectations, but I was expecting somewhat of an average experience. Negative The first night we were given a very small double standard room with a cot. How could they expect my 3 year old son to sleep inside a small cot. I wanted to change the room immediately but nothing was available until the following morning. The morning 01/08/24 a slight bigger double room was provided with x1 double and x1 single room. However, more problems occurred. I found in the bathroom x5 cockroaches & flies in the bathroom, and x2 big snails in the balcony. It was absolutely disgusting. I reported this to main reception who were not surprised at all and blamed the hot weather. They cleaned the room and sprayed something for the cockroaches. On the 3rd day, I got stuck in the bathroom as the door handled had broken. It was a horrible experience as I am very claustrophobic. My husband went to main reception and they managed to unlock the door. No apology provided. The following day this was sorted. The room TV was very fuzzy and the screen could not be seen properly. The we were booked as all inclusive. The food was very disappointing. Breakfast - food very limited and same everyday. No fresh fruit or croissants. Lunch - food very limited, and had to queue for about 5-8 minutes for BBQ food outside. No ice-cream or cake for kids. Dinner - very busy during 7-8pm and no space to sit. Food very limited & queue for BBQ outside for 8 minutes. Soggy cake for dessert. No ice-cream for kids. Dining room was very hot and AC very limited. Hotel is in 3 buildings. Would be wise to have this all in one, for convenience for the guests especially those with children. Positives The kids pool is excellent and slide. Entertainment was average Unlimited drinks were available Bar is good I personally will not be visiting this hotel again. Requires a lot of improvement.

Jay cox

Really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is well situated, just a minute or two from the beach on foot. The buffet had a good selection of food, we stayed for 10 nights and found something different to eat each day. The service was great with very attentive staff. Rooms are basic but very clean and presentable, housekeeping was also great with our room being cleaned daily. Brilliant value for money.

Zoe Brindle

Its not actually on the beach, it's about a 10min walk away which isn't a problem but it was misleading. The blurb on 'On The Beach' stated the hotel had its own private beach.. nope not even a section of the beach was reserved like it was for the other all inclusive hotels that lined the beach strip. The hotel is split across 2 sites, one half with the main reception, some rooms, and a pool. Meanwhile across the road behind the market is the dining area, another pool and more rooms. Again it was advertised that there were 3 pools - 1 'adult' pool, 1 large pool with slide and one 'kids' pool. In reality, 2 fairly small pools, one with a small part of the pool sectioned off for 'kids'. No adult pool at all. Barely enough sun loungers for the number if guests at the hotel. Small hotel trying to host way too many guests! The food was bland, boring and incredibly repetitive. Nothing was labelled so you had no idea what some dishes even were. This made life even more difficult for me with being coeliac. None of the staff, especially those at the bar and in the dining room looked like they wanted to be there, ever! The room was basic but clean, however the lock on our door was barely worth having, a small nudge on the door and it would unlock and swing open, so we carried all our valuables with us all the time. Our room was supposed to be facing the gardens (which were non existent) or pool facing, we got neither. I let this slide initially but the first night at 10pm one of the bars started playing ridiculously loud music for 2-3hours. I though this would only be at the weekends.. nope it happened every night for the whole week. And the songs played were repeated every night. Overall the hotel is in desperate need of proper repairs and decoration. The food was just about edible and very repetitive. 'All inclusive' meant that all imported drinks and even bottled water were off the table. There was a choice of 3 soft drinks and 5 spirits, everything else was extra. No snacks or ice cream available during the day. Wouldn't recommend and won't be returning, cheap and nasty rather than cheap and cheerful.

Roman Korvyakov

Had a good time here. The apartments are cheap and cheerful. The location is great. Its near the beach and central to everything. The rooms themselves are very basic but are clean. For the price it's not bad. I would stay here again.

Caroline Minshall

Best thing about this place was location. Beds were uncomfortable. Three flights of stairs with no lift. Pool was green and slippy. I was violently ill after eating a meal there. Lost day of the holiday with D and V. Local chemist was brilliant with advice and medication worked and was really cheap. One toilet roll given because it is self catering but no personal food, drinks or even your own water bottles allowed around the pool? The plates were tacky and plastic. The electric cord for rusty hot plate had been burnt. The icebox in fridge was full and needed to be defrosted to use. When we asked to pay to keep the room my husband had to go to reception 4 times for someone to help. Overall not pleasant. Would not recommend this place.

Arran Hunt

Jack what can I say, your answers are great and so honest we love it. We stayed 12th/18th oct 2024. Room 15 It's the middle east 99% of the self-catering hotels we have stayed at have the same solar heating for the showers. The pressure of the water was 10/10. Beds was 9/10, cleaning 9/10, kitchen equipment was 8/10 (with a toaster we could grab from down stairs would make it a 9/10) but has bin all cutlery and sharp cutting knifes, loads of pans and plates and glasses.drying equipment 09/10 (it has a line and pegs on the balcony) noise 09/10 (it has lots of keep quiet signs and poster's) Staff 10/10 not pushing us to spend, and very friendly, we loved that they eat and chat together as we felt included when we came down to go out in the evening. No one coming in to sell either. The young guy behind the bar was funny we saw him finding local English funny sayings and using them when he saw us. We saw Jack 6 out of 7 days chatting to customers and made this clear and easy to follow. 5/10 on the tv in the room but it has English cartoons most of the day and 80s to 2024 music all day. 10/10 for easy good tasting English food, the young guy knew we had transfer and asked to get a fishfinger sandwich and a bacon sandwich to keep us going for our long trip. The best thing for us was when we got to keep the room for an extra 4 hours for free at the end of our holiday after hearing we had a big flight delay. The tables and chairs are nicely spaced apart but close enough that at 32 and 35 made 6 friends with ages 24 to 65 with 2 we are going to visit on the island of man. Facts are as follows. £500. For 2 people including flights, Hotel and transfers. It's cheap with plenty of things you can buy when there ( extra WiFi, safe, aircon, ect ) Food grate, prices in the middle, people great, location Is one street away from the sea. They even shut the bar conservatory after 1am to make sure noise is at a minimum. We have started plans to come back 2x next year as it is a great base to explore the country and local country roads. Well done team 👏 👍

paul rawsthorne

Stayed here for a week with the family, it's a really nice place and the staff were amazing. You have to pay extra for the air conditioning and it's only in one room so the rest of the apartment was way too hot but not the hotels fault the weather was so hot. The hotel is close to the main stretch of road with plenty of restaurants and bars to choose from. The hotel is also located close to the beach and a 30 min walk down to the harbour and castle. All in all this was a really decent place to stay. Thank you Sebnem

Lewis Mather

Just spent 10 days here the staff are amazing and the place has a family style environment making everyone feel welcome We will see you next year Thanks Lewis

Yassine

The hotel is beautiful, budget friendly, good location and very close to the beach and other attractions, clean room but can be renovated as well, they also serve a satisfying breakfast, the staff are very friendly and helpful 😀

Sheila

The hotel is very old and in very bad conditions. The bathroom is gross. There was a leak on the ceiling of the shower from the restroom above (so water was falling from there). The shower was full of hair. Beds are comfortable! Breakfast was poor and even the bread was not good. Recepcionist and people who works there were very nice though! It smells like tobbaco everywhere (in the rooms too).

Lisa Aytoun

Basic hotel but does the job. Really lovely helpful staff. Nice cold pool. Turkish breakfast. Right on main road for shops and 2 min walk to beach.

Mohammad Bjanthala

I recently stayed at the Almena hotel for a 3 days and had a fantastic experience. The location is perfect for a relaxing vacation, with easy access to the beach and a short walk to local shops and restaurants.

Mila

First of all, when we arrived, the girl at the front desk didn't speak English. She asked about our names and said that she doesn't have our reservation, even though we had reserved and already paid and called twice to check the booking (we did this two weeks earlier, and even when we called to check, there wasn't anyone on the phone who spoke English, so we had to let our Turkish friend talk to them to check out our reservation, and they told us that all is good and it's paid). She kept nodding her head and acted like she couldn't do anything. After pushing, she went to another place to check, then she came and asked for our passports (it seems she checked with someone else). After that, we went to our room. The room was fine, tidy, and small, with a balcony providing a pretty good view of the main street. The air conditioning was working well, and there was hot water in the shower. However, there was so much noise coming either from the street or the room next to us since our room was linked to it by a door, which was really weird; we could hear everything the other room was saying. Our room was on the 4th floor, and we could not reach the Wi-Fi, so we had to use our own network, but the Wi-Fi at the lobby was working pretty well. As for the cleaning part, the rooms were not that clean, the sheets were not renewed all our stay there, and the towels were not changed for the whole time we stayed there. For the pool, it was fine, but the surrounding area is kind of filthy, with dirty sunbeds and trash everywhere that weren't cleaned. Also, for breakfast, it was mediocre, with the same things served each day, and maybe you could face a day when something could be missing + the water from the container is dirty, be careful. Last but not least, the location is the best thing about this hotel; it's close to the beach, food places, mall, grocery stores, and everything. Also, the prices were kind of low compared to other hotels. So if you are a low budget person and find, at the time of reservation, that this is the cheapest hotel, go for it, especially if you need just a place to sleep and plan to have fun all day and night in Marmaris. The hotel's location is perfect for all the activities and experiences you would love to do there.

Rachael xox

Reception staff not helpful and very arrogant men. Rooms are okay but if you have a 2 bedroom you have to pay £140 for air-conditioning and your not allowed another key it's one key per room. Top rooms are very very hot even with air-conditioning. The pool closes at 6.30pm and they throw the chemicals in so it will burn if anyone goes in not ideal for a pool to close that early. Cleaners are lovely and hotel is beautiful and in great location. Don't think I would come back to this hotel.

Daz

This is an honest review, the hotel is ideally situated and the pool and pool staff are great, the reception staff are a complete joke. They are unwelcoming and rude, and they are talking nastily about you in Turkish whilst you are still stood there. The room has a charge of £70 for the air con (quite common in turkey) but keep in mind that if you have a 2 bedroom apartment you will need to pay double ( £140) as it is £70 per unit... This is not as common and seems a rip off compared to other hotels. The cleaners are good and the rooms are ok, dated, but ok. The hotel shop is twice the price of the supermarket up the road... And the pool bar is a little pricey. But the staff around the pool seem nice, there is no lifeguard at the pool but the pool itself is good. In short.... Don't ask for any help whatsoever with anything at reception, they are useless and not interested. All in all we had a great holiday and it is a cheap place to lay your head.

Twenty for Seven Relaxation

Stay away from this hotel we had nothing but problems with this hotel , wrong room and claimed they offered us a room on the 5th floor which we didn't went straight to the room they took us to which was on the ground floor they claimed we asked for a ground floor which we never we booked a 2 bedroom only got a 1 bedroom, I took photos and videos of damage to the room when we got there and they rectified some problems they claim we damage the room and took the photos, they try blaming you for damage to the room which was already there, this is a very bad hotel to stay at and the staff try ripping you off at the restaurant, they also have a guy claiming to be a rep whose from love holiday/Jet2 and he's from adamtravel called Ferrit ! , only decent staff there was the lovely Pandora Jeweler great man can't fault him very caring and great deals there other then that dont stay here and only pop in to see the jewler.

Jacky Gregory

This hotel was very good . The pool was cleaned and checked regularly. The service and entertainment around the pool was good . They kept kids entertained . So if you want quite maybe not so good. The turkish bath in hotel was excellent. The drink and toasted cheese sandwich s around pool were good . They also have on site doctors, shop, hairdressers . Tattooist. Helpfull friendly staff . All 5 of us would return to this hotel

Sonny Gill

We stayed here 10 nights, hotel rooms were good size, plenty cupboard space, fridge freezer and a microwave all included. Ac is an extra (£6 a day per room) Pool is a good size and has 4 slides which is a bonus, kept relatively clean. Staff at reception are very friendly and help with whatever u need. Defo recommend getting the massage here at the spa was well worth it ! We were half board however a lot of the menu is not on the half board option so you have to pay extra, be sure to see what comes on and doesn’t as some nights we could order certain food but then others we couldn’t depending on who takes your order. Food was average, service however wasn’t the best when they were a little busy they would just rush starters and mains out together which isn’t ideal and when you complained about it they would just look at you like it’s not their fault ! The hotel has a little shop which is reasonably priced but you weren’t allowed to buy drinks from here betweeen (10am - 4pm I think) meaning you would have to pay the bar prices which was high, however there is a little shop just around the corner if u wanna save yourself some money ! Entertainment was ok (kids enjoyed) just very repetitive. Location is good only a 15 min walk to beach and to the main bars and restaurants. Turkey is a lot more expensive then our previous visits, everyone is trying to rip you off however if u can haggle defo haggle some places will knock a good £20 off!

Today is my mum and my last day. I cannot rates this hotel enough. The staff are so friendly and helpful. In all honesty I don't know how they do it given the longs hours they work. Food is lovely and rooms are not so clean.

Top quality experience. Can speak for my family aswell when I say that Musti's is one of our favourite locations in all of Marmaris. We have been many times and I haven't a single complaint, amazing staff, and the food is worth every penny. Definitely try the chocolate milkshake if you visit! Staff always catered to our requests and were geniunely happy to do so, they themselves boost the entire Musti's experience. I'd also like to mention the night time shows and events that make it just that extra bit more special for the whole family; my personal favourite is the pool party, in which the pool is open late and everyone has a blast. Would definitely reccommend, and i only wish i wasn't limited to 5 stars!!

This is a budget hotel. It's great value. You do have to pay for Aircon and wi-fi if you want these in your room. High level of service the food is OK.

anita kennedy

We had a fantastic time, staff couldn't do enough for us. Rooms spotless, food was tasty and plentiful, drinks spot on. Nightly Entertainment was good. The bus terminus is just outside the hotel. So it makes for a good location. They have a kids' pool and a large slide into the adult pool, which is quite deep. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool and on a sun terrace. The bus: 5 mins on no. 2 will bring you to the main strip, 10 to the markets, and 10 mins on the no. 3 to the beach. 25lira pp on the bus.

I don’t even know where to start I booked this hotel thinking it was going to be at least half decent and it turned into a disaster the first time I arrived I was waiting around for ages to be seen as soon as I was checked in I realised you then got to pay to use air con in the room and also WiFi! Which both cost over an extra £200 I got into the room and it was a shambles it absolutely stank like someone just smoked 40 cigarettes in the room and we couldn’t get rid of the smell for at least 5 days, the balcony door was broken the shower flooded evertime you used it and talk about safety on the balcony all the safety bars was wobbly so I couldn’t trust my kids out there alone, I also paid for breakfast which was a total waste of time you can’t even get a piece of toast with your breakfast unless you like olives for breakfast this might be for you but I had to pay every morning for jam & toast which was one of the most expensive things on the menu just for the kids to be able to have something for breakfast, the worst thing of it all was when we was leaving we checked out I had to pay a final bill and I wanted to use my card as I had no more money and the manager was livid screaming in my face saying “ cash we don’t want your card “ also threatening me just for the fact that I wanted to pay by card I have never in my life been spoken to or experienced something like this before and I have been to hundreds of hotels and im the last person to moan about anything but this whole experience in this hotel let me and my family down especially when you have spent thousands of pounds for this trip! I would definitely not be coming back to this hotel that’s for fact and I would tell everyone to avoid!! You can get much better places for value with no hidden charges and also not to get spoken to and treated like a fool!

Marek Mazurkiewicz

Professional and very helpful staff. All speak English. Rooms clean and well equipped. Highly recommended!

Jo Vine

Read mixed reviews before visiting here.. Staff were so lovely.. I always felt comfortable and safe. Ali in reception was great and all the other staff. Cleaner worked so hard every day fresh rooms. Food was always lovely and tasty. Always fresh. No complaints and look forward to visiting again. My favourite place to stay so far

Алена Ивонова

Excellent hotel in a quiet location in Marmaris, close to the sea. Just 5 minutes and you are on the beach! Everything is clean, cozy, tastefully done. Excellent swimming pool and sun loungers on site. Nice design, white furniture, comfortable beds, orthopedic mattresses, snow-white fluffy towels. Breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet. Cheese, sausage, eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet watermelon and much more. Good tasty tea and coffee machine. Everything is fine. Delicious cappupino. The staff is polite and friendly. There were no complaints about the cleaning. I was pleasantly surprised by the free Wi-Fi with good speed. I will definitely come back again.

Siavash Gharib

It's a good place. The guy on the breakfast is a nice and friendly person. The rooms are good. Water pressure is not incredible. The rooms are clean. The breakfast is ok. You can find coffee all day which is great. I asked how I can lock the room, they instructed me. However, when I tried what they said, it didn't work from outside, when I am was not in the room. It would be great if they could go with the visitors to make sure their issue is solved. The AC works well and no problem with that. Over all ot has a nice atmosphere and I recommend it if they can help with the door locking as well.

Jorge Necesario

We had a very nice stay at this hotel. Rooms are comfy. The outdoor area is enjoyable. Big thanks goes to the cook, who delivered every time a really delicious meal! The staff is mostly friendly and the cleaning ladies do an amazing job! Location of this hotel is also great.

Alicia Overfield

Came out for a short four days. Checked in late and dark, couldn't really See what was going on. The next day, Monday started to see the disappointment. "All- Inclusive " Our room was dated and in dis repairs "Broken" The shower cubicle only had on sliding door .. when having a shower water whent out onto the bathroom floor. Extra towles to mop up water. The step into the bathroom was loose, definitely trip hazard. The main light in the room didn't work Only side light by TV & door working The toilet rool holder was broken. Sharp metal stub sticking out. There is no hot water in the shower for 3 days Only last night /day hot water after Complaining to receptionist. If you have mobility problems as in walking This is not for you . Differences in levels and the steps are steep. Going down to the bar area and pool Bar.. if you want to drink the local alcohol Any branded alcohol and cocktails need to be paid for. Restaurant . Food can be hit and miss depending on what the chef is given in the food order. If you have any dietary requirements It's hard to translate .. food allergies The chef does try his best to accommodate you and the head barman The server are young teenagers, and they are just following orders but extremely helpful. Pool area Small pool . Needs updating same as sun roof area above the bar House keeping Our rooms clean daily But you notice that rubbish and left out food trays dont get picked up and cleaned I complained 3 days about rubbish on sun deck. Never saw a management untill last day when checking out. Very rude attitude Spa / Gym dont work stopped two years ago. After every day complained, some of our rooms were fixed or repaired Positive The location was 10 minutes flat walk to beach. & shopping area 2 local supermarkets within 5 minutes of hotel The agents Martin to book travel day trips or experiences, he was good with local knowledge. We made it our holiday and what we needed from it. I would come back to Turkey , in a resort or better class of hotel.

Ahmed Hassan

We were travelling with an elderly lady an required a room on the bottom floor(as the building they gave us rooms in didn't have a lift). We arrived late so for the first night she had to walk up 4 flights of stairs to the top floor, however, on the next day, a lady who speaks good English had sorted this issue and gave us a room on the bottom floor, however it would have been good if they could have helped us before we arrived(we tried to contact them and On The Beach multiple times with no help). The staff did however offer us use of the safe and AC for free to make up for this. The rooms themselves were very clean, and were cleaned well daily. However, one of our rooms had an issue where the AC was spitting some water out, so we had to move the beds away from the AC in that room. The balconies on the top floor rooms had a very nice view of the mountains. Some locks on bathrooms would get stuck which was very irritating. The top floor hallway stunk of pee on the last day, which was a shame, as the hotel was very clean during the rest of our stay. The food in the all inclusive was hit and miss. Half the time it was average and the other half it was quite bad. It seems the food was catered to the majority british tourists who visit the hotel, however, a more authentic Turkish cousine would have been nice. I can't fault the staff at all. They were extremely friendly and would always be willing to help us with any issues and ordering taxis. The staff save this review from going down a star. The hamam and sauna were not available, however as you have to pay for these, it is not a major issue, and we could go to one outside the hotel. The gym was not available for use. The outside area of the hotel was very nice and the pool was nice too. Location was also ideal. Overall, if they improved the food and issues around AC and locks, as well as the smell on the last day, I would be able to give them a higher review. The staff bring the rating up. The hotel is absolutely fine for a 3 star hotel and I would come again, just not with all-inclusive.

Lee Van Der Tak

Just back from my holiday. I stayed here in the last two weeks of September 2022, at a cost of £800 pp all exclusive. This is a quiet Hotel. The alcohol and the beer was very good and served for 12 hours a day. For an all-inclusive hotel, the food was the best I've had. obviously you get what you paid for, as this was a low-cost Hotel the food was not perfect but reasonably hot and varied, not having the same food more than once a week. A great plus is that the air-conditioning was free and worked very well. Also the WiFi is free at the bar and around the pool. At this time of year, a lot of the sun loungers are in the shade, but to be fair with temperatures at 36 degrees centigrade, it was a blessing. Also at this time of year the hotel was very quiet and there is no problem getting a sun lounger in the morning. I would recommend this hotel well and I certainly would go back again.

Alison Wignall

The staff here in the day cannot do enough to help you. All the staff in the bars are young but they speak little English but will help you with everything they are very nice especially Mehmet. Nas at the reception speaks a bit of English along with other languages and will help you as much as she can. The rooms are not as advertised but the room service in regards to cleaning is brilliant although they dont always guve enough towels or bedding. The food is not as good as I thought it would be there is mostly chicken rice and salad most days but some of the dishes were really nice. The sauna is not working and neother are the turkish baths or gym so dont expect to use this!

Christine Parker

Hotel is nice well located close to beach and Blue Port, quiet area. Saw no evidence of previous issues mentioned rowdy guests cockroaches etc. The reason I give it 3 stars is the all inclusive, the choice is extremely limited at all meal times and it is tailored to the Turkish diet, in fact Turks will live it. Also the drinks range is limited anything out of that range charged. I am staying one week all inclusive and one week b&b ( daughter's and grandchildren coming out the second week and will eat and drink out. Difference in cost makes the B&B an more attractive proposal. All staff are extremely friendly, aforementioned manager is very quiet during day and surround himself with cronies at night time

Sameer Qumsiyeh

Although my wife and I didn't stay at the hotel. We tried its cafe and it was amazing. Breakfast was huge with a lot of plates and we were shocked how cheap it was! The coffee is also really good and cheap price. The staff are super super friendly and welcoming. We felt warm!

Tremour77

Great Hotel just 1 minutes walking distance to the beach. Clean and spacious rooms. Nice inner decoration with glass elevators. We were extremely happy with our stay

Nathan Tsang

Great hotel to stay in. The rooms are good, except the shower kept going hot and cold. The breakfast here is nice too, make sure to get in early for the pancakes. Pool area is nice and chill. Supermarket and convenience stores all near by. Great for pickups for excursions.

Wadih Antoun

Very good value for money. The hotel had everything including a pool, a very nice spa, and a kids play area. The room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The breakfast was served at a restaurant in the hotel, there was no variety though. So that wasn't great but we only stayed for 2 days. I imagine it can be quite boring if you're staying more. The man at the reception was not very friendly either but aside from this, it was a great stay.

paul Nott

Hello again 😎 This hotel is one of the best for me because the hotel is not too big and has a lot of great features and relaxed areas to sit and read a book with a glass of wine 🍷 food is also stunning 😍

Mesrur Salahov

We stayed at this hotel for a week with my friend. The hotel is located by the beach, with a distance of 0 meters to the sea. The view is very beautiful. The hotel staff are very helpful. In particular, Ms. Inna and Mr. Yusuf were very helpful during our vacation. I express my gratitude to each of them. The food was delicious. The rooms were clean, and cleaning was done once a day. Overall, we had a quiet and pleasant vacation."

Mohamad Hakim Kharboutli

The rooms are small. The food is good but could be much more better. What I didn’t like is that the eating area and the reception could be air-conditioned but they kept them off all the time. Which was uncomfortable to have breakfast and especially lunch. Marmaris is very very hot in summer and the temperature during my stay was reaching 42 c. Services are top in the hotel, room services, cleaning, extra towels, extra pillows were all provided upon request. Elevator could be better, sometimes was malfunctioning. I booked the room with full sea view which was top. But between food quality, eating area + reception cooling, elevator condition, I would give the hotel 3 stars and not more.

Fejda Saran

The worst vacation! Only good thing, location. Meals depend who cooks.Rooms are old. Very small. Not good cleaning. Towels’ colour turned to gray due to over used. Sheets change every 3 days otherwise they don’t touch it. Sinks are blocked! Elevator never cleaned! The second day of our arrival they announced that there was going to be disinfection of the rooms for bugs and insects and bacterias! I’ve never seen such a disinfection in a hotel while there are guests in it. Clearly there was a problem even they called it routine . It proved in the end that first, my husband, and then I got very very sick vomiting and diarrhea , a terrible one, on our last 2 days of our stay. Staff inexperienced! They seem never worked in a service business (one or two excepted but those were very rude anyway except receptionists). 2 girls from the staff were argued badly in front of the guests. The hotel owner was there with his whole family for a vacation. I wanted to talk to him to make a positive comment.I was reacted very aggressively and rude, tried to redirect me to the hotel manager whom was never ever seen on site. When I said I was there for 4 days and never seen him, the owner got very frustrated and told me that if I was questioning their management! When I said “I am sorry but I am a customer” I was told to Stop there!! I didn’t argue further! Later I learned that that person called Adil Tunca, was VP of Southern Aegean Tourist Hoteliers and Operators Association. No comment !!!

M Shirazian

We stayed for 4 nights in a sea view room and all inclusive. Considering it is a 3 star hotel the food, price and amenities are acceptable. But there are some points that can be improved and make stays more pleasant. First of all cleanliness, not that the room was dirty but it was not acceptable. Curtains are dirty and smell awful. Lamp shades need a deep cleaning so as the air condition vents. Blankets had spots on them. Other than cleanliness, staff behavior was not friendly. They are grumpy, no smile, not hospitable. Weird! Just Aysu who served ice cream was smiling all the time. All in all the good points is the sea view, beach, location. But with little improvement it will become a 3 star top hotel

Luc Reuvers

At the beach, hearing the waves, pretty food and very kind personel to make you feel very welcomed.

Benjamin Skalski

Very nice hotel. Less party people, more friendly staff. We really enjoyed our stay there. The food was really good and I appreciated the kindness of the people there. We had an awesome view to the sea. I can really recommend this hotel, especially for families.

Caitlin stott

Good for the money. The food is ok but not brilliant, the staff are lovely, and the location is beautiful. The stairs are hard work, esp with young children. The pool is fun, and the slides are fab.

tracey wall

The hotel is beautiful in stunning surroundings something different than your normal hotel. You have your own little separate mini villa . Rooms are spacious & immaculate. Staff cannot do enough for you .

Liza Campbell

Just returned from a lovely 10 day break here with my friend and her 5 year old son. the food was lovely and fresh with a wide selection and staff in restaurant made sure that your drink was always topped up.The entertainment team were fantastic in particular Oscar who made sure everybody has fun and was so good with the children always making sure they had something to do..him and his team were absolutely great. other guests were friendly and we made some great friends...rooms were clean and maid came every day to replace towels and tidy..i would highly recommend this hotel . The steps and hill also are not as bad as made out either and are easily done!

cathy davis

Have just returned from a week at this lovely hotel. I have no complaints at all. I stayed in a twin room which was very comfortable and cleaned every day, towels were replaced daily. The choice of food was wonderful, very varied and fresh. I cannot praise the hotel staff enough, nothing was too much trouble for them and they were all extremely friendly with most speaking very good English. The whole of the entertainment crew were wonderful and kept us all busy with various activities, such as water gymnastics, water polo and various hilarious pool games. The crew and the pool staff do not stop working, they are on the go all day making sure everyone is having a good time. The only downside would be for anyone who has difficulty with steps as there are loads of them, but saying that, a lift is available. I would not hesitate to stay here again :)

Waqas Ali

Another decent place for kids as much as adults. It's about 5 mins away from the marmaris shopping area. It had a lot of fun things for kids to do. It had a few adult stuff to do such as pool. It also had a baby train which my son enjoyed

mohamad kasemagha

The period of each game is so short. No variety for the games.

Gokhan Dirik

The employees were very attentive. It was nice to be given information about the games. Especially the sand painting section is an activity that children will love, I recommend it to everyone. They are having a pleasant time. We thank Ada for her interest.

Irem

My daughter and I used to come here all the time, but it seemed to me that the people you hired most recently were very close to people. People come to play with their children and relax, but it's annoying when they stand over you all the time.

Busramiratuncer

Our daughter loves this place very much, you can have a great time with your children, let me share it right away.

Shristi Sharma

Hotel is situated on a beautiful beach. The rooms are big and view from “rainbow tower beach view room” was unbeatable. The housekeeping service was amazing. Guest service staff was always available to answer the phone. Things which we didn’t like- our fridge was auto shutting off and in both of our friends rooms AC was not working. Though they fixed it quickly, but in short stays you don’t want to get up in the middle of night and call the maintenance. Apart from this I would recommend this place. We were couple of friends with 3 kids and they all enjoyed the stay.

Nick Sieler

There is good and bad to be found in this review of the Hilton Hawaiian Village. The good: We spent a lot of time at the Paradise Pool. Our kids are 7 and 9 and loved the water slides and the hot tubs at this spot. The pool was crowded and finding a chair was hard to come by, but it was worth it. We liked having access to the lagoon and beach and all of the food options in the village. The housekeeping staff and check in staff were very friendly and helpful. The bad: Everything felt over crowded and over priced. The activities and food at the resort were all very expensive, much more than typical Waikiki prices. We ended up leaving the resort, more than staying, just to get away from the crowds and the exorbitant prices. The staff at the pool were very cold and seemed very annoyed to be in our presence. The sand at the lagoon was hard and course and felt fake. We loved swimming in the lagoon, but the lagoon sand looked like sand and felt like cement. Overall, I don’t think I’d stay here again. I’m glad for the experience, but I’d prefer to spend my hard earned dollars at a place that is less about trying to bring in crowds with pretty pictures and more about providing a quality service.

Maureen Sharkey

Stayed here for five days. I was in the Rainbow tower, with a ocean-view room. The room was spacious and comfortable. I had two beds - only slept in one. Which was lucky, as the other one squeaked a bit. The chairs were comfortable and there was enough closet and drawer space. I don't care for Hilton's feather pillows, but there was a regular one in the closet so I was comfortable. The insulation is very good in this hotel. There are easy paths everywhere (though not flat - so be aware if you have mobility issues). There are signs to lead you, and, being a Hilton, everyone that works there is friendly and welcoming and will happily answer questions. The landscaping is quite beautiful and well maintained. There are a variety of restaurants plus a market, two Starbucks, and the Wiki Wiki market that had good food to go (or room delivery, for 30% extra). There is also a Dairy Queen tucked into the bottom of the Rainbow tower that has drinks, ice cream, and hot dogs. The beach is great, and the hotel has loungers, umbrellas, floats, and (at night), lighted toys for the kids. Every Friday night are fireworks that are so much fun! I loved staying here, and would go back again.

Heather H Griggs

The Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki is in the heart of the city. Great location that’s accessible to restaurants, shops, beach, tourist activities. The staff is very accommodating too. I’d like to give a shout out to Kristie S with the Tours team as she made a great recommendation for a whale watching tour that did not disappoint! We saw so many whales, which was amazing! Another shout out to to our housekeeper MaryLou R who has been absolutely fabulous during our stay. My husband and I have enjoyed the Hilton Hawaiian Village, its staff and the many fantastic amenities quite a lot. Addition: We discovered that the only pool with a hot is an adults-only pool (bonus) located in the Kalia Tower is only open until 6 pm!?! This is an adults-only pool…it should be open until 10 pm or at least 9:00 pm. It’s also the only hot tub on the premises. Hilton is doing their patrons who are visiting without children a disservice by not extending the hours to that pool/hot tub. Or consider adding an additional hot tub on the premises.

Frankie Misra

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel with my friend Patty, and it started off perfectly thanks to Alyssa, Tony, and Lani at check-in. They were incredibly helpful and kind, upgrading us from our Klia Tower room to a stunning ocean-view room in the newly renovated Rainbow Tower. They even honored my Diamond status, which I really appreciated. The stay itself was lovely, but their warm, high-energy service—despite what I’m sure was a long day of dealing with guests—made it so easy to enjoy. They kept smiling and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. I hope Alyssa, Tony, and Lani get the recognition they deserve—they’re absolute stars!

sheila Cook

loved every little thing about our 14 day holiday. the rooms were cleaned every day and fridge was replenish towels fresh every day .the restaurant had lots of food to choose from, some of the best cakes I've had for dessert. the two pools are lovely, the main pool with music was very popular with its own bar and afternoon snacks from burgers and chips to ice cream. the quiet pool was very well equipped with bar and toilets facilities. the beach is just a little stroll away on the doorstep. I expect in high session this beach will be buzzing, there are plenty of sun loungers. and with lots of boat trips leaving from this beach I would call them big pirate ships to be honest they looked amazing. there are plenty of souvenirs to be had in the many shops on the strip from tee shirts to sweatshirts and the usual fridge magnets. there is also plenty of restaurants to choose from if you fancy eating out .

Dmitrij Košelev

Today we returned from our vacation in Ölüdeniz. And it was really perfect. Maybe if you are looking for an only resort-situated vacation, this hotel isn’t optimal for you. For our group was very important the sea… I haven’t never seen so beautiful water! The beach is really about 50m from the hotel, and we had our private part in the beach. In Ölüdeniz it isn’t common, and it was super. We liked the territory of our hotel, it’s really big a green. The cleaning of our rooms was every day. Also I liked food there. Thanks to the staff we had a variety of vegetables, every day different fish and plenty of meat.

Kimi Patel

Arrived to this hotel in May and it was so unhygienic and disgusting. The rooms had blood stained pillows, wardrobes with mold, dressing table with make up and dirty marks all over. The staff do not help you, they weren't even phased by the issues i raised, i think it is a normal thing for them. If you are a clean hygienic person then do not book this hotel. I was on edge everyday with my kids! Save yourself the hassle and book somewhere else to enjoy your holiday.

Dionne Milligan

I loved my time in this hotel, very central to everything, we had one of the rooms to the main building when you comedown the ramp a lovely little room people always say go to the back near the adult pool away from the noise but, after all the entertainment is done it is quite. My room refreshments was always water no other juices I had to ask for stuff, the burgers by the pool are lovely, staff are nice, boat tours and buses on your doorstep. I'd love to come back.

Demi

Stayed at this hotel September, stayed for 14 days. Rooms were basic but clean, some of the staff were friendly and helpful others weren't so much, especially the blonde lady. Overall had a pleasant stay.

Andrew Firth

So this review is made on what we had based on what we paid! Overall we had a good stay, the room was fine, apart from some initial teething problems which were resolved rapidly. The bed was comfy and the room was well serviced.. The food was good in both the restaurant and lunch time snack bar, with plenty of choices to suit all. As this is really a children's orientated hotel, if you don't want to put up with them don't go!🤔 If can, or have children you should have a good time 😎

Aimee scanes

This place is lovely. My partner and I came for a last minute week away, and were impressed. Transfer from hotel was about 1.5 hours. Check in was very easy and informative and told us all we needed to know. Someone came to help us to our room and showed us around, although the lift was broken so we had to go up five flights of stairs!! but was fixed the next day The next day we got up 6:45 and so many sunbed reserved. We were lucky to get one in the sun, but one half of the pool didn’t get any. It was quite a mission to get sunbeds, but towards the end management took towels off of sunbeds which people put down and went back to bed, which was a lot easier Food was great, no complaints. There was food that everyone can enjoy no matter what. Yes they do the same foods most days but you get what you pay for. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Rooms were perfect. Maids were amazing and very chatty. Bar staff were so polite and enjoyed everyone having fun and joined in Although, a lot of husband and wife’s falling out, and your usual drunk people who take it one step too far. A few big arguments which were soon sorted by hotel security would definitely come back again

Jingo Bells

Rooms are very basic. This included broken wardrobes, dirty socks on a roof directly outside our balcony which we had the unfortunate pleasure of looking at everyday, a tv that didn’t work, air conditioning that sounded like it was ready to take off at any given moment, uncomfortable beds the list goes on and that was just our room alone, a couple we met said their room was covered in mould 🤦🏻 We also arrived at 6am in the morning and the staff gave us keys into 2 different rooms that people were sleeping in before we got the rubbish room we eventually did. The staff are also constantly on top of you in an uncomfortable way trying to get you to buy stuff despite it apparently being all inclusive (it’s not) and not a smile among the majority of them either. The shop in the hotel was overcharging everyone and giving them the wrong change in lira constantly to a point that everyone we spoke to there was boycotting the place. Even the parlour I got my tattoo in although his work was good overcharged me about £40 and said it was for a design fee, a design I MADE 🙈 Food is very average. I’d avoid the breakfast as it’s bland and gave me constant heartburn. It’s pretty much the same food you’re eating every single day and there is parts of the day there is no food available at all which is no use when you have young kids and it’s advertised as 24/7 all inclusive. Dinner doesn’t start till 7pm which is late for young kids and the queue for it is out the door, reminds me of a homeless soup kitchen and the kids didn’t really like anything on the menu so they were constantly hungry and we had to get food outside the hotel. The poolside was covered in fag doubts, tables were always sticky with drink which was attracting wasps constantly and I noticed people taking pool water to clean it themselves. The pool itself seemed ok which is literally the only reason I’ve given it 2 stars because the kids enjoyed that. Same repetitive entertainment every single night which I can only describe as something out of Butlins in the 90’s. Last but not least the mosque next door to the hotel was blasting out hymns and prayers at 6am every morning and throughout the day so don’t expect a long lie. If we go to Turkey again it won’t be here 🤣

martin

Lovely hotel, some rooms need to be updated but they are kept clean every day and maid's are friendly . Restaurant was a big size but needs to be with the amount of holiday makers, it was kept as clean as possible, floor sweepers on hand plenty of staff always friendly. Food standard was good plenty of choice but generally the same every night but again not professing to be ala carte.very impressed but a bit lively if you want a quite'ish holiday may be not for you. Overall the hotel was excellent and would reccomend.

ryan goodyer

Just come back from a week holiday with the family, hotel is in a good location, food was spot on. Pools where good. Entertainment team where great and all other staff always smiling and helpful. Only downer on the hotel is they wanted £120 for a 4 hour late checkout which I find is very overpriced

amber bevan

My partner and I went to this hotel for our annual holiday back in October. I will start of by saying we had an amazing time! Massive shout out to our favourite waiter of the trip Engin who offered the best service, he went above and beyond, always bringing us fresh drinks when they were nearly empty without us asking! The flight was long and so was the transfer, so being able to check in and go straight to our room was amazing however, we did encounter a problem on our first night. The room we were first put in was right next to a place called shake bar, we soon realised that it was far too loud. My partner and I have been to multiple festivals and both agreed it was just as loud if not louder than being there. I headed downstairs to ask for a room change. They agreed to move us and didn't seem surprised we had complained about the noise level, we were moved the next day to a sea view room. After the room change we could settle in and enjoy the holiday. The food was fab and it was great to try some more turkish food, if you get peckish throughout the day there is a snack bar which offered lots of basic foods like pizzas and burgers. Unlimited ice cream was the best and the drinks were good too. As we were all inclusive we didn't try too many places around the hotel but there were a lot to pick from if you like to try different restaurants. The only thing we would say is be cautious of people trying to sell you things as you walk around, like anywhere else you would go on holiday, we fell into the trap and luckily had the best time on our boat trip. Overall a great trip and we look forward to returning in the future.

The location of this hotel is beautiful. But after 9:00pm expect loud music until midnight from the bars next door. Seaview rooms have truly beautiful view, and the best showers I've even seen.

Anoush Jahanyar

OK Just let me give this hotel 5 star. best location, superb food ( we were in All inclusive) excellent drinks, good stuff but the hotel in the middle of season suffer from lack of entertainment activity except monday night that there was a turkish night, anyway because of the other points i gave this hotel 5 star. ofcourse i choose here again

Everything was great, especially the rooms, cleanliness, bars and beach. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would like to thank Ali, Arslan, Rojbin and Aydan. The hotel's service quality and the cleanliness of the rooms were amazing. There is only one thing that needs to be improved, and that is the food. The variety of dishes could be increased, more meat could be used or they could be tastier. The desserts were very nice but I think the breakfast and main dishes should be reviewed. But overall I really enjoyed my holiday. Thank you for hosting us.

It's a Motel not exactly a Resort per se... it's located in a very small town north of Downtown Marmaris. Streets are very narrow. Finding parking can be difficult. The property itself is compact. Like a spring break town. Loud music throughout the street till 4am. Beach was very small and questionably clean. Everyone smokes. Staff doesnt speak English fluently. Rooms are very small. Despite all these things, i have to give the staff credit. They went above and beyond to accommodate vegetarian options . Thank you so much

Від відпочинку в цьому готелю, залишились дуже приємні враження, сподобалося все, номер, кухня, пляж, єдиний минус, на такую велику кількість відпочиваючих замалий ресторан, не хватає місць, і ще порівняно з іншими готелями як що ти виїжджаєш рано вранці готель, не надає даже легкий сніданок🥺 , все остальное сподобалося, персонал ввічливий, прибирання в номерах кожен день, були в готелі з 23.07.23.

***WOULD AVOID*** Green Nature Resort in Marmaris offers some positives, but overall, it falls short of the experience expected from a 4-star hotel. Our room (Room 4000) was spacious, but noise was a constant issue, with guests running and shouting late into the night, making it hard to rest. When I inquired about packed lunches, the response was condescending, as if I had made an unreasonable request. The dining experience was also frustrating. Staff would clear food and shut off drinks machines right as mealtime ended, even if guests were still serving themselves. Lights were turned off, and tables were cleared around us, making us feel rushed and unwelcome. A little flexibility would make a big difference. Bar service was inconsistent. While most staff were okay, one young bartender was rude and careless in preparing drinks. Thankfully, a senior waiter provided attentive service, which was a refreshing contrast. Security was another concern. We found the safe open and our room door left ajar, and only upon returning home did I realize that two of my designer t-shirts were missing. When I rang the hotel, I was told they couldn’t do anything because I had already left and would need to report it to the police if I was still there. The representative implied that it was my responsibility to check my luggage before departure, which felt dismissive and unprofessional. The on-site shop experience was disappointing as well. My young daughters (2 and 6) were testing some toys, and the shop owner began shouting at them for making noise—even though we were planning to buy the toys. A friendlier approach would go a long way. The tattoo shop delivered good work, but prices were inconsistent. Initially, I was quoted £95 per hour, then later £80, which felt unprofessional. While the result was fine, I could find more reliable and consistent artists back home. Overall, Green Nature Resort has potential but lacks the service and security to live up to 4-star standards. I would not recommend this place to anyone, and I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

It's a really nice hotel, the location is great. About 900 meters from the beach and mountains in the background. You could go with the bus to the beach which comes every day. Food is good, sometimes little bit cold but overall good. The hotel is mostly English so most of the food and drinks are from English culture. For the waiters on the other hand, they were mostly talking to each other and didn't do much. If you are sitting on one of the furthest tables chances are small that they are coming to ask for drinks. And for the tables, some big tables are reserved every day. Little bit weird. Swimming pools are great. Fun waterslides. Some extra things that the resort could change are: animation costs, some activities costs money. Like the bingo and pizza making. For a all inclusive resort this could be changed in the future. Overall this is a great resort and we had a lot of fun!

Samia Imran

We loved our stay here, the food was okay, had enough of a choice not to get bored. The nearby beach isn't the greatest and it's an hour's walk from the grand bazaar or about a 8 min cab ride for about 8 pounds The best part about this hotel to be honest was the staff, we had our infant son with us and everyone was super accommodating. The Spa staff especially were excellent and so kind so much so I would return just because of them. Low points about the hotel were, no iron provided you had to rental from the on site shop and the WiFi wasn't the greatest.

Mohammed Banares

Stayed here for a week commencing 19.05.24. 12 family members including 6 children and it was the 2nd time at this hotel. Great experience once again. It has a sister hotel on the beach which is newer and more expensive but according to friends who have stayed at both this is better. Great variety of food and free ice-cream for the kids. Rooms are average but regularly cleaned and no extra cost for Internet or safe. 2 large swimming pools and slides + children's pools. They have a foam party once a week and daily evening entertainment for kids and adults. 10 minutes walk to main road near the beach with plenty of shops and seller's of excursions. Hotel can get very busy. We all had a great time.

Marine Hagendijk

Marmaris itself? Absolutely stunning. But this hotel? Let’s just say it won’t be on my list for a return trip. They might advertise as a 4 or 5-star experience, but in reality, it’s a stretch to even call it 3 stars. Next time, we’re opting for a smaller, beachside hotel to enjoy the breathtaking views—something this place, sadly, lacks. The Good: The diversity in activities for kids was a plus. My daughter made some lovely friends, and they enjoyed a well-equipped playground and a range of fun activities. Halloween night featured a fantastic band, adding a nice festive touch. The restaurant team? Truly lovely, welcoming, and doing their best to make the experience pleasant. The Not-So-Good: • Pool: Way too cold, even the baby pool! We ended up in the sea more often for a bit of warmth. And if you want a spot by the pool, be ready to wake up at 7am to claim it with a towel—not exactly a relaxing start to the day. • Food: Very English-centric, clearly catering to the predominantly English crowd. Think fried food galore with limited healthy options. Melon and apple were the only fruits daily—hardly a diverse menu. • Cleanliness: The kids’ pool had an unpleasant smell, and the communal toilets were consistently dirty with no soap, which was especially tricky with a toddler in potty training. And beware of the on-site jeweller! He turned what was supposed to be a repair into a disaster, irreparably damaging a family ring and showing little honesty in the response. Overall: Next time, we’ll be going for a smaller, beachfront hotel to enjoy Marmaris’ true beauty without the disappointments. This resort might work for some, but it didn’t for me.

Lola

When I went in August last year with my friend and my family I had a blast :D The slides are really fun, loved the cakes and food and the pools. You can also get photographs , hairstyles, spas, they even have a place called kids world which is brilliant. Although I do have 1 concern. In the main outdoor pool if your or your child can't swim pls do go in with out a life vest since the pool is 7ft deep! I rlly miss it and I wish I can go againn :D

Arvind Chalasani

The hotel itself has a grand look at the entrance, featuring a hotel spa, hotel hair salon, jewellery shop, hotel shop an few other extras. Ground floor rooms situated next to the kids swimming pool can be noisy, but usually less noise in the evenings.I personally think the rooms needs upgrading and the air condition takes a wee while to start. Food at the hotel was great ranging with live eggs counter for morning breakfast, good lunch choice and evening dinner with a live entertainment every day and when it comes to waitress, it is a bit awkard because they wouldn't bother at all, unless a good tip served they give the best service, yet blame them as extra money helps locals too. Hotel pool is great, a bit small size when it is busy. Local tourist adventures are awesome, for all age types and gino down the road is a local guys who organises local sight seeing . Overall a great experience, highly recommeded

MARTIN BULL

We had a great week. The courtesy bus to the beach was much appreciated. The sun beds were really too tightly packed at the hotel. We were on top floor with great views over Marmaris to the sea though you had to stand to get the best of the view.

Garry Toffoletti

Amazing hotel. The food is terrific with more than enough selections to keep anyone happy. Not cheap fodder, you get options of smoked salmon and local cakes which are just awesome. The staff are attentive and helpful, bringing you drinks to the table while you eat. Just a short walk to the beach where they have a contract with golden sands, so you get to use canoes at no extra charge. We'll be back!

kirsty manson

Having the best family holiday here. The hotel is lovely with lots to do, it has a great pool and splash pool for the kids. The food have been really nice with differences every day. If traveling with kids I'd definitely recommend the on site kids club, my little man (4) loved it and did lots of different activities. All the entertainment team are great fun and lovely people, especially Lilly, she has been amazing with my son and he loves seeing her. All the staff at the hotel have been really nice and helpful.

Jo Whelan

This hotel is perfect, I have had the best time. The staff are very friendly and will help in any way they can- waiters get to know you by name and make special cocktails. There are many facilities, I will be coming back to try them all. The private beach is beautiful and clean, many sun beds there is always somewhere to sit. There are some cats, they are well looked after and very affectionate. The rooms are spacious and accessible by lift. The food is fantastic there is lots of choice hot and cold. The town is a short 5 min walk with lots of good shops. I will come here every year it is amazing

Margarita Stankova

A wonderful and peaceful holiday. The hotel is fabulous. Romantically located in the embrace of its own bay on the coast of the sea. The service in the hotel is at a high level. The reception, bar and waiter staff are smiling and polite. The animation is fun, and during the day there are many games with the tourists. The evening programs are interesting, and every evening there is dancing and music in the night bar. Thanks for the wonderful vacation!

Daisy Cross

Fantastic area, love the hotel. Full of polite staff. The area is beautiful I would highly recommend coming here, the food is also great, a huge amount to choose from, and it’s constant. Drinks are good, not like other places. The beach is more than spectacular, just stunning! You can walk up the hill and watch the sunrise.

lucy waller

we had a lovely holiday and the staff were friendly and the setting is gorgeous. we really enjoyed our time at the hotel. the beach is gorgeous with crystal blue sea and the sun shone every day. we enjoyed lazy days on the beach and went on an amazing boat trip for the day visiting all the local bays. would highly recommend.

Robert Jonáš

Generally a nice place. Good and helpful staff. Bartenders are excellent. Their conversations are very good and they are smiling. Public relations Dilan loves her job and is sincere. Average food, some are excellent, others are average. We were not satisfied with the room cleaning at all.

Charlene Helen Williams

Just returned after a week. Despite this being advertised as a 5 star it definitely wasn't. Room was dated constant issues with balcony door sticking very dated hair dryer in room which was awkward use and got very hot to hold ! Bathroom was difficult go get into the bath an slippy. Food was worst ever had in Turkey an most days we were left hungry and pauly as alot of it was watery an meat undercooked pools were extremely cold and ladders loose when getting out hall of hotel is stunning, beds comfortable and is clean and great location. Just not what we had been promised.

Paul Morrissey

Pleasantly surprised as reading the reviews on route I was a bit concerned. To be honest I stayed at Marmaris Palace in May and its sister Grand Yazici Club Turban in July, so I think I can make a fair imput to this boutique hotel. With regards to staffing and problems therein I have to disagree- i found a very warm welcome from Serdar and his team front of house. I have found everyone to be friendly, I think it depends on the way you engage with people. For sure in the kitchen they could smile more and be more engaging. I have only one complaint with one person who doesn’t engage and clearly not a happy bunny ( may be stuff going on in her life and therefore rude to name ). This place is growing on me, however for me the food is the problem. Taking to some staff it’s been the same for 20 years. Breakfast for me is very poor, limited fruits no fresh juice / sweetened juices that will rot your teeth and the variety is way below par if trying to maintain its 4 star status. Lunch and dinner is better but very repeated, and you simply cannot serve salmon daily as it can be considered a bit risky from a health perspective. Security is also very poor and not much presence. Rooms lovely, staff make up for everything but sadly the food is not as good as it should be.!

Modupeola McCarthy

Quality from the moment you arrive if you don't believe me come and see for yourself food drinks snack bars late night soupthe entertainment Spa gym cleanliness in all areas😊 Delightfully quirky with something for everyone. I like the fact high adult ratio. Great place I dare you to find fault 🙃 Will definitely be back.

Bushra Shehzadi

Stayed here last year quite enjoyed it room was a bit shady but guna take family here in first week ov April hope I get a better room for my family

Aishah Saddique

I come here over 10 times. Hotel is very elegant , homely, loads of things available, comfortable rooms. I think the best thing ever is the food , so much tasty. Special people is Umit ,Hasan ,Bengu ,Mr Omar and Irfan for making our holiday especially amazing. There is one other man I don’t know his name but I always saw him working in the silence pool, an older man. He was amazing too.

helima zindani

We have just spent 7 nights and have had an amazing time. Restaurant staff absolutely fantastic, Antonio extremely friendly and helpful. Food is typical of all inclusive, so does get mundane. Always something to eat though. Rooms very clean, but very dated, they could do with better lighting and updating. Pool area was always busy and we could never get a lounger, so spent our days on the beach. Bit stony, and gets very deep very quickly so be careful . Hairdressers on sight was brilliant did a fantastic job on my hair, very reasonable compared to home. Overall a lovely experience. Would definitely recommend. Made a huge difference being a adult only hotel, if your wanting r&r. Look forward to a return visit.

Julie Langford

Just back from a week staying at this wonderful hotel. This is a repeat visit, we went same time last year. I was extremely happy to see the same staff working at Faros as they are such a wonderful group of people, nothing is too much trouble and they seem genuinely happy to be working there. I could pick out special names here but really, they were all magnificent. The room (sea view) was lovely, refurbished and although the balconies are tiny they have such an amazing view. The food was varied and very tasty. I enjoyed the Faros Special cocktails but my husband didn't enjoy the local spirits. We had a Spa, Turkish Bath and Massage on our first day which was amazing and worth every penny. Only one negative point, the evening entertainment was not nearly as good as last year. This hotel does need some TLC but the good definitely out ways the bad and I would return again.

David Rowbotham

Stayed at the Faros Imperial Beach hotel at the end of September beginning of October 24. It's an ideally located hotel with it's own beach and plenty of sunbeds. Along with a nice pool, again plenty of sunbeds although it was the end of season so not sure what bed availability would be like in the summer. Restaurant has plenty of choice, although served usually cold or luke warm. Let down by the lack of cleanliness especially near to the kitchen area, and unfortunately due to the way they display the yogurts / jams flies were a problem. Probably better in sealed pots ? On one day served out prawns which were, although cooked were barley warm and staff suggested using the microwave 🤔.  So stomach bugs could be a problem. Heard plenty of negative comments from other customers. The main issue with this hotel is the need for a major upgrade,  and certainly not a 3 star plus as Jet2 advertise. Carpets dirty outside the rooms, lights in corridors not working ( higher floors ). Upon arriving, finding empty shower gel still in the shower, and hairs in the drain. Old soap gunk on the bathroom walls now embedded. Shower head full of white gunk ( replaced with one that leaks and wrong type. Electric sockets hanging out of the wall, pulled right out when removing phone charger revealing live wires. Room cleaners rarely move coffee cups or replenish the coffee unless asked. Bedding with holes in. Balcony door left open everyday, which is a security issue especially in our room 122 and next doors, 124 /6 & 8 all of which overlook the hotel entrance carport and an easy climb from room to room. All made worse as the staff even though informed on a daily basis failed to put right. Managers even have a negative view saying ( " don't like it go to different hotel, and we provide a safe ") so good luck if you stay hear. Surprised to read other reviews as everybody staying there had something negative to say. So biggest issue, dated and dirty. On a positive, the staff in the restaurant and bars couldn't do enough for you and were so polite, cracking location. Management need replacing.

Lisa Allen

Much needed holiday and it certainly delivered. The hotel is ok. But the staff are what makes the experience. Service in the restaurant was outstanding. Ozenç is amazing. His attention to detail and service is top class. 😍. He made my holiday. As two females travelling we felt very safe in and around the hotel.

Rosemary Wright

The reception area and outside spaces are kept clean and tidy. The decor and furnishings are very tasteful. The pool area is very small for the size of the hotel but the beach area is large with plenty of sunbeds. The location is excellent, with bars, shops, and restaurants all within a short walking distance. The majority of the staff speak a good level of English and are friendly and polite. The selection of food in the restaurant is good. A big shoutout to Őzenç who is extremely attentive and polite. He helped me obtain gluten-free bread for my soup at lunch and dinner. Room cleaning is a little sporadic and on more than one occasion we were left without a sheet to sleep under. The rooms are tired and in need of updating but they are clean. Our fridge did not work for the first three days and we asked Reception three times to send up maintenance to have a look at it. In the end, we managed to fix it ourselves. The bedroom walls are paper thin but the view from our room on the fifth floor was spectacular.

Paul JNR

I honestly wouldnt bother, my 20th holiday 4th time in Turkey 2nd time in Marmiras an this his by far the worst hotel I've been to. From not washing cups properly to giving customers fake money from a staff member. Theres flys everywhere and the food is terrible. definitely a max 3star hotel, the but the pool and location is brilliant, The free ride to beach is perfect but that's where it stops, you have to pay for bottled water, the football pitch is like a war zone and the food is like the food at war. I honestly can't be more honest. Some of the staff are brilliant but the other half honestly don't want to be here. I honestly wish I spent the money elsewhere.

Jackie Mitchell gongyo

Amazing experience. Visited friends here and was made so welcome by all by Archie Elvis and all the staff. Entertainment amazing. Great size pool with kids area. Could not love the staff more. Even got lift back to my miserable hotel of London Blue (I certainly would not recommend all miserable) as the wild boar had come down from the forests. When leaving they all gave us hugs and farewells unlike where we were staying. I can't thank the staff enough to looking after us. There was just that feeling of family

Liz McFall

Stayed 1 week having visited before knew what to expect. Cheap and cheerful. Staff Archie, Elvis and child helpers children of the house keeper with handyman husband make a very hospitable atmosphere. Fast food is good clean fresh and cheap. Individual cooking from the menu. Plenty of choice. Peaceful - no hassles. If there is a problem they fix it. Snooker table much in use The pool is large, clear, clean and not crowded. Lots of loungers. Rooms cleaned twice with changed laundry.

Karl Larrea

Me & wife, Plus friends stayed for 2 wks, It was 1 ov the best holiday we had, Archi & topman was absolutely brilliant, We laughed every day, It's not a 5 star apartments, But your not paying for that, A shower, get your head down, Then bk out for another laugh Plus the pool makes it all the better. Will definitely go bk again with friends, See you soon archi & topman, Merry Xmas to you both. Take care till then x Karl & Donna / nick/ dave. Xx

Annabel X

Spent here some time with family. Good pool for small kids. Affordable prices. Very friendly staff. If you need Wi-Fi, you should ask for the room closer to the bar.

Allen Horne

Came home 20 Sept after 10 wonderful days at Marti. I am surprised at some of the reviews I found it to be set in a beautiful position by the sea. There was plenty of choice in food if you are willing to try new things… why only want typical English food when you are in Turkey. Our room was clean and tidy with good air conditioning the cleaner was warm and friendly and the view from the balcony spectacular. The pool area, gardens and private beach were well maintained and ideal to relax and soak up the sun. Reception staff were helpful, bar staff efficient and friendly. To be fair the entertainment wasn’t to my taste but other holiday makers enjoyed it. I would highly recommend

Grażyna Zmelty

I spent a week in Marti la Perla in October. The nearby sea and beach are great. The hotel itself looks good, however the cleaning needs to be improved. The staff is ... not involved at all, especially the young man working in the pub in the garden - he was unpleasant and arrogant. Talking about the pub... the drinks that were served were totally tasteless.

Brendan Vickers

Great location, lovely pool area . Rooms good size but not clean . Housekeeping disgraceful. Manager and guest services are not interested. Food was appalling. Drinks ok , coffee very good . Floors are scruffy right throughout the hotel . The bathroom is very dirty . Hotel management needs to be replaced with staff that are interested. Staff are rude .

Jamie Heaton

A hudge let down. We came here as a group of 8 (four couples). I never booked it. The hotel is clean enough but the food is horrendous. The entrainment staff during the day are great but the same staff do the evening entertainment which is boring and not put together professionally. Management please hire in professional people for evening entertainment as it's boring. The bar doesn't have enough staff working to serve multiple guests, as making cocktails takes a long time. Management, if you're reading this employee, more staff at the pool bar during busy times as the wait time for a drink is ridiculous. The food is the worst part, I've been to six hotels in Turkey, and this is the worst for food. It's the same junk every day with no thought into presentation or anything. Not being able to bring other food into the burger bar is retarded as my wife doesn't eat burgers. Equally not being able to eat the burger outside of the burger area is also retarded. Management, please review this rule its truely pointless. The rooms are fine, very dated and basic but that doesn't bother me however it had no ironing facility and the fridge turns off when you leave the room so it's pointless really as your almost never in your room. The entrainment staff are great, but the pool barmen are miserable, and asking them for a cocktail somehow upsets them which is weird. When you arrive at the reception, they ask if you have any dietary requirements or intolerances, which is pointless because they absolutely don't change, cater, or even care. Seems like a tick in the box question with no follow through when you arrive. The major upside is the location, on the beach. I will 100% not be returning to this hotel which is a shame. ***Update as of 24th August **** They hired some semi-professional dancers for an entire 30 minutes at 21:30. Now just background music for the rest of the night 😂 Management go to the Aqua hotel next door and look at their evening entertainment.

kathleen day

beautiful location, room's nice but basic cleaning was very poor, I had to clean the room and shower myself. In the 2 weeks I was there there was no bedding change.

zom b

Stayed here with my family for a week mid November and really enjoyed it. Staff really friendly and helpful. Our rooms were really nice, cleaning staff did a great job leaving plenty of fresh towels every day,plus water. Food was lovely with plenty of choice. Food Court in grounds was fantastic with great food, plus ice cream place next to it. Only thing is it's not good to stay if you're not used to walking, they're stairs and slopes everywhere. This didn't both us, but some people could find this a problem. I would recommend this hotel and I would stay again x

Jessica Evans

First time here an it’s wowed us, we’re struggling to find another hotel in other country’s that we will like as much as here!! Such a fabulous place! Safe for kids and families , children are safe to roam the resort, 24 hour bar , kids can get drinks an food Amy time, at nighttime they have sandwiches an soup which is amazing when checking in or out late at night! Cannot recommend this place highly enough! Staff are amazing from front of house to restaurants to room keeping. Love the Turkish people 🇹🇷 And my family are in love with this place ! 10/10 for everything! Also when we left the hotel to do excursions the security checked the details of drivers etc and made sure we were safe with who we were leaving with ❤️ Felt like a celebrity here they make you feel so well looked after !! Thanks to all the staff xxx

Asha

Really lovely hotel. Has everything you need for an all inclusive. Baby and child friendly. The pools were a little cold (end of September). Beach close by and lots of seating if people didn’t reserve with towels (so annoying!) lots of food selections including for kids, each night has a different theme for the freshly cooked food. Meat, veggie and fish dishes. Al la carte (Asian) wasn’t good at all. The buffet was better. The entertainment was good including kids disco but WAY too loud!

dawn of the dread uk

We had an amazing holiday here. The food was really good. So much choice! I lived off the Turkish meze. So, so tasty. The swimming pools were very cold so we ended up swimming in the sea as that was much warmer. The rooms are very spacious. The only thing we didn't like was very the overly loud music on our first 2 nights as there was 2 events on til almost 5 in the morning. Other than that it was a perfect holiday.

More Winner

We stayed for 11 nights as a family of four, the location is amazing on its own private beach. The rooms are okay, but in need of some repair work. The staff cannot do enough for you. What let's the hotel down is they host dance competitions, or conventions. The live entertainment, stated at the hotel should end at midnight but for the dance groups they decide to allow parties to continue until 5am and the dj is incredibly loud, the hotel effectively turns into a 18-30s party hotel with young dancers being sick and passing out found in the morning. We would return but not while the hotel ruins everyone else's holiday for other groups.

Robert Currie

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.

Viola z My British Journey

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.

Ieuan Griffiths

Our stay at Marti Resort was absolutely amazing! The hotel was spotlessly clean, and the rooms were spacious, with excellent air conditioning. The pools were fantastic, and the food was delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Doano, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Although we had to check out by 12 pm, they graciously allowed us to stay and enjoy the full resort facilities until our transfer at 6 pm. Highly recommend this resort for a relaxing and hassle-free holiday!

Plenty of staff, but none of them are doing anything especially the young ones just walking about their advertising. Loads of keep fit like a like body combat but they say that haven’t got any instructions to do it but there’s loads of people instructors just walking about not doing anything a lifeguard is under a tree with a towel wrap round and not doing anything never seen nobody clean up or anything, the older stuff seem to be doing a lot more work like clean and looking after people. We have not got ourroom clean for two days we have to ask reception. Positives very nice Hotel lovely views drinks very good top drinks you have to pay a bit extra file, but we’re having Gordon’s gin and swept tonic. On the hall, a fair tidy and clean Hotel

This place should not be labeled as 5 star! When we arrived the staff member did not seem enthusiastic about helping us with our bags and our room was not 5 star quality. Although they moved us, both rooms were dim, and they also had a weird smell. My shower had dirt on the floor as well. The location is great and on the water and there is a lovely walking track. The food was also very average and some food was bland and not to 5 star standard. The grounds are pretty and very European style, however with the food and room quality, this hotel is not 5 star at all. If you are just looking for somewhere to sleep I would stay here, however if you are picky and like to spend time in the hotel I would not recommend.

Hotel basic not good especially been but on the top floor attic room because they have over book, staff are ok but not as friendly as in the past years, prices were ridiculous £6 for a no make fizzy pop 1 litre yet only £1.20 for 2 x 2litre in supper market £8 a cocktail then it’s also a self catering hotel and you can not bring your own food down to eat you can only can eat there food around the pool, cats always on sun loungers. Defo time to us a new friendly hotel self catering we’re welcomed and no been made to feel unwelcome,

Rooms very basic but nice and clean. Staff were lovely and helpful. Air con was very expensive. Good location. A bus ride to town. Beach down the road. Great bars surrounding the hotel. Cleaning was done everyday by a wonderful lady. Very friendly. Only problem is there are no lifts.

Denise Yates

I was on the top floor in a studio. There was no wifi up on the top. I had to go down to reception if i needed to use the Internet. My room was cleaned every day, and the cleaners were lovely. Great location for the beach and shops. (8 minutes walk). All but one member of staff were great. Helpful, polite, and chilled out. Yes, there was late night partying and music, but it's a holiday, I would expect that wherever I go. However you can hear everything from the other rooms. Doors slamming throughout the night. The pool and bar area needs a bit of a refurbishment and a clean-up. Food was not cracking. Eat else where or cook your own. Overall, it was a cheap and cheerful place to stay. I'm going 60 years old, so the staff aren't going to try it on with me, but I did notice them flirting with the other women, who were not in a couple. Yes, I would stay again for a cheap getaway

Lorna Sherwood

Just stayed here. Room basic but that's all u need as don't spend much time in room. Cleaner came in everyday Bar staff are brilliant and so friendly,food beautiful only a 5 min walk to main strip and beach. would highly recommend and will definitely be visiting again.

Steve Flaxvert Cherry

The reviews are correct, the bar staff will try and rob you all the time. I was charged for 9 beers when I had 6 all night but how can I prove it when they keep a total on a bloody note pad. A few nights later I had 1 beer, paid on my phone at the end of the night then 2 nights later they said I didn't pay. I went on my banking app and proved I did. Disgusting thieving bar staff who have made me and my autistic son never come back. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! PAY FOR YOUR DRINKS AS YOU GO. Or go to the bar down the road that is half the price and a much better atmosphere called the Emporium Fun.

Mark Sheppard

Great place to stay. The stuff were very friendly with no issues. Located in a fairly central location but without too much noise. Food is traditional and tasty. Plenty for everyone. The bar is basic and has soft and fizzy drinks along with some spirits and beers. Room is comfortable and was cleaned every day to a decent standard. The air conditioning is great and was ideal to cool down after a long day by the pool.

FABIHA AFIFA

rooms were average and the food was edible. some of the items was smelling bad though. room service was great, they cleaned the room everyday. first day our ac wasn’t working so they changed our room, then the soap dispenser was broken but we didn’t make a fuss about it. there was this evening receptionist who can only speak russian and turkish, i don’t even know why he even works there bc he doesn’t help at all and not to mention he’s a racist. on a good note, the location is great, 2 min walk from the beach and bars, has many supershops around it

Richard Fitzsimons

Stayed here for 7 days last month. The food is edible, that's all I'll say about it. Some staff are friendly and some are just rude. Room cleaned every day and air conditioning was great in the room. We paid €25 to keep room till 4pm, as out transfer was due at 6:45pm. It's in a good location in Marmirus. N'joy bar, near by is good and there is a supermarket near by.

Andrew Davies

Rooms are basic, could do with an upgrade but the maids are lovely and friendly. Service was okay. Location really good. Food is not the best and could do with more drinks at the bar and stay open longer and not close early.

Boris Vujic

Excellent location - away from noise and crowd. Lots of green and trees, really spacious pool area, with a big pool. Excellent food, great choice! Polite reception staff! Everyday cleaning and towels change. Two things they should work on to be better: 1) elevator is out of service often, and also one elevator is not enough for a hotel of this size; 2) rooms should have some additional bedside-table, shelf or furniture peaces to put small things on. But overall, this hotel is for a recommendation for its location and food.Real example of a "BestBuy".

This hotel has been proposed to us as a 4+star hotel and we got all inclusive , unfortunately this hotel is very old and the manger/owner doesn’t take good care of it. Issues: in the room one of the electric socket was coming out, the door will open sometimes after 10-15 swipes with the card (maybe that’s why some doors look like somebody punched them). Entering the lift (in the left wing) was dirty and smelly, in the lift itself were some strange stickers. In many places outside, the floor tiles were broken which is a hazard, playground for kids is forgotten by staff and there are many cigarettes on the ground. From 3 water slides 2 were working and just one was functioning as on the blue one you just need to push yourself to get to the bottom. For an all inclusive 4* we had just once in 7 days some burgers for snack time. From 7 days just 2 days we had some entertainment in the evening and that one came straight after a lady came to do some checks on the hotel. In the same period the outside toilets started to be cleaned, in the full day, when people were using it (my son slept on the tiles and bumped). Food was average, not great but you could find something. Coffee machine was getting broken or leaking often. The waitress (guys) were a bit too “crazy” when seeing a more pretty/sexy woman which I think is inappropriate. Room was ok but looking tired. We looked at the other 4* hotels nearby to compare and we could see that they look much better than this one. Internet connection el was just at the reception, nothing in the left wing. The good things: food - you always could find something, fresh vegetables and fruits. The beach was very close and they had soft sun beds and it was fairly clean of stones compared to other parts of the beach. The view was great from our balcony and we were thankful that they have offered our room when we arrived early in the morning. The pool was ok, in good state but not the tiles around the area. This hotel definitely needs a good refurbishment and good care!

I am writing this review to express my significant disappointment with my recent stay at this hotel. Unfortunately, my experience was far below my expectations for several reasons: Cleanliness: Upon entering the room, the first thing that caught my attention was the poor cleanliness. The floor was visibly dirty, and the carpet had not been adequately cleaned, leaving it stained and dusty. The bathroom was in terrible condition; the sink was grimy, and there were smudges on the mirrors and glass. Even the bed linens and pillows seemed like they hadn’t been washed in a long time, making for an uncomfortable and unsettling sleep. Furniture: The furniture in the room was extremely outdated and showed signs of long-term use without any updates. The chairs were worn out, and the tables were covered in scratches and stains. The bed itself was uncomfortable and looked very worn, which made for a less than pleasant stay. Honestly, it seemed like the furniture hadn’t been updated in decades. Staff Attitude: One of the most disappointing aspects of my stay was the staff’s attitude. They were unprofessional and seemed disinterested in ensuring the guests’ comfort. When I requested to change rooms due to cleanliness issues, I was met with indifference, and no action was taken. Additionally, the front desk staff were unhelpful and seemed unwilling to answer any questions or provide necessary assistance. Conclusion: Based on my experience, I would not recommend staying at this hotel to anyone looking for a clean and comfortable stay. There is a dire need for significant improvements in cleanliness, furniture updates, and staff training to ensure professional and courteous interactions with guests. I hope these issues will be addressed to improve the service in the future.

the hotel is horrible, the food is the same every day. The staff is very rude, the rooms are dirty. Also on the beach there are many stones and the water is dirty. The city is beautiful and recommended for young people.

Bar staff were friendly. Room service were good. Location is good for restaurants and shops. Good size pool. Cons- Beach area too small one member of staff serving puddings was extremely rude. Cocktails are only served 4 hours a day. Rooms are basic Beds not the comfiest

Where does one even start. Got to the hotel at 2:30am, no security at the front of the hotel. No one to help with bags or suitcase. Made it inside the hotel where apparently the system is not working and the receptionist asked if he could keep our passports until the morning which we declined and he was fine with it. Randomly started working after 1 hour of waiting in reception. We was asked if he wanted tea or coffee by the manager. Finally got into the room and the young boy tells us that this is just our room for the night as our room which we booked is not ready. We were to tired to argue and slept in a small bed. Breakfast was very basic and horrid which was included in our package but only went to it once as it was that bad. In the morning, our room was changed. Not the greatest room. Bathroom light did not work, we ran out of toilet paper and bath towels which I had to ask a few times from reception. Housekeeping kept coming into the room whilst we were sleeping and when I asked if he could come back after an hour, which he did not. No issue with reception staff although English was very little I do not expect them to know English as I am visiting their country. On the last day, the two receptionist staff a girl and boy were VERY unprofessional and made my friend and I feel very uncomfortable. They kept looking over at us and talking and then laughing which we ignored. The girl then took a photo of us which we found extremely rude and weird. The only people who are nice in that place is the two managers and one of the young boys on reception. The girl on reception needs to learn some basic people/customer service skills. Nothing deluxe about that place. Would not stay again. Great managers shame about their staff & hotel itself. Would not recommend this place based on the services it offers or lack of, horrendous customer service & food.

Did an all-inclusive 7 night stay. Rooms were decent. The air conditioning wasn't great but when I complained they offered to move me rooms so couldn't ask for more. Service and friendliness is impeccable! They couldn't do more for you. The food was decent, and the bar staff always sorted me out decent strength drinks. The gym, however, was a disappointment, I like to workout, but I didn't go there for that, but it was very much a token gym so they could have a tick in the box. People's home gyms are better equipped. Had a massage and traditional Turkish bath, which was great! Recommended staying there.

Had a wonderful holiday here. The staff were amazing and couldn't do enough for you. Food and drink were plentiful and with a good variety. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hopefully we will return one day

Hotel Aqua is a very strong four in my opinion, although it seems a bit dated. It's very clean. The room is cleaned daily, floor mopped, towels changed, disinfected, the mini fridge is also refreshed daily with some branded drinks in there and the pool is cleaned daily after six. What I do like about the venue is that outside the Palm bar, there are knives and forks always in a plastic bag so that flies can’t crawl over them. The staff are very attentive and can't do enough for you. One thing I will say about the food is that most of it was good (Waffle Corner and Gozleme). Some of the desserts were really nice and so was the milkshake cartons (at breakfast) and some of the non-alcoholic cocktail drinks. But there were times with the show/on demand cooking like on the last day we left, we had an early breakfast, and the pancakes were raw on the inside as the cook was also frying sandwiches. Once some of the evening BBQ kebab was pink on the inside, but we didn't eat those and left it. Also, several occasions trying to get a fried egg. The lady doing the fried eggs was also doing the pancakes and sometimes she wasn't there (tidying up). It would be good to have them prepared in advance like the boiled eggs. The beach is a bit a bit stony near the water's edge, but it's more sandy further out and you can always get a sunbed at any time (if you can’t get a bed round the pool). Also went to the spa and indoor swimming pool, which was good if you couldn't get into the main pool, which was always very busy with games. Also liked that the hotel was near shops.

I really can't believe all the fantastic reviews for this hotel. I guess it depends on your experience of 5 star hotels - but this is definitely not a 5 star hotel. 3 stars maybe. We went for 2 weeks in August for a family holiday (2 adults & 2 children aged 16 & 9) The hotel is clean and the staff work really hard and are friendly. Rooms were ok but not 5 star. No alcohol in the minibar (not that we are big drinkers but we kind of expected a little something). No hot water first thing for a shower in the morning - reminds me of being in Greece in the 1980's! Food in the restaurant is very limited, repetitive and very "Turkish" for every meal. Most of the dishes are a concoction of various foods, are unrecognisable and sometimes unlabelled so you have to chose with your eyes. Not sure what the "meat" was. We noticed lots of English guests (us included) walking around the food dishes, lifting the lids then putting them back down without taking any. Whoever is filleting the fish in this place needs a good talking to as every dish containing "fish" has some bones in it. Children are not very well catered for either as far as the food goes. The outside BBQ grill was ok but the same food every night. The sweet/pudding section was probably the highlight of the main meal if you like that but there's only so much one can eat. We decided to eat out quite a few times in Icmeler town to break up the food monotony which in itself was a bit of a chore due to the fact that every restaurant/bar you pass is trying to drag you in. Drinks are rubbish - no premium brands available or on display. However I did see a few Turkish speaking guests getting them at the "sunset bar". When I asked for them, all the bar staff just looked at each other for a second and then I was told that I couldn't have them. The standard cocktails and spirits all taste watered down and tasteless - they even put ice in the fizzy white wine (which didn't resemble prosecco what so ever). Beer was ok but you get fed up with it pretty quick. The only outdoor pool is way too small and the sunbeds are really cramped round it so you'll likely get to talk to the person who's sitting 6 inches either side of you, or be shrouded in their cigarette smoke/vape plume. It's noisy and cramped. Of course that's if you can get a sunbed - you'll need to be up putting your towels out before 6:30am. We were a bit wary of going in the pool after about 3pm as there's a lot of people in and out of it (being so small the water gets a bit "soupy" towards the end of the day) Beach was ok but not great. That was until my son spotted what he thought was a jelly fish in the water but turned out to be a tampon. Needless to say we kept out of the sea. All in all, we were very disappointed that this hotel didn't live up to the standard advertised. Top Tips - Go somewhere else if you want a 5 star experience. - Don't believe all the "fantastic" reviews - chances are someone is paying for them.

The best choice for Içmeler. The personnel is very kind and prompt even if sometimes doesn't understand the English language. The 5 stars hotel is a Turkish valuation, unfortunately not in line with the European standards. But, it's very appreciated all the efforts the personnel does to let the holiday be at the top. The beach is too busy and a bit dirty, nothing compared with the fabulous turkish beaches. The position is very strategic, and this is the point up because it's situated among the beach front alley and the main streets full of pubs, garment stores, and jewellery shops. In brief, if you've passed the 70s, come here, and it will surely be the best choice for you and your partner or friends! In any case, to evaluate a place for a one-week stay is not simple, and it is a great responsibility. The people involved in a perfect organisation like a hotel are not easy enterprises. Finally I've really appreciated this hotel. Elder people are a warranty of a good stay, that's why I came here... there are also many children and teen agers. Buone vacanze a tutti!!!!! I'm VERY HAPPY.
