Our stay at Poseidon Hotel was truly a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, the cute and lovely ladies at the reception welcomed us with such warmth and kindness. The waiters were always friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home, and the housekeeping team kept everything spotless with great care. The food was excellent — fresh, tasty, and varied — and the cleanliness throughout the hotel was impressive.. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay, and we are grateful to the whole team for making it so special. We would definitely be happy to return noting that this wasn’t the first time at Poseidon!

My partner and I had a fantastic time at the Poseidon Hotel. We got a surprise by being upgraded to a sea view room which was amazing! As you can see in the photos, the view was glorious. It was great to sit out on the balcony and relax. The room itself was lovely I liked the blue theme. Everything was in working order and the standard of cleanliness was extremely high. The housekeepers did a fab job every time! The facilities were also great and I especially loved the pool and Turkish bath. The private beach with pier was also a huge bonus to this hotel. Relaxing on the beach with all inclusive drinks was living the dream. The floating area was also fun! The restaurant was big and always had an array of food to choose from. I definitely never went hungry at any point. The staff were always attentive and kind and very friendly with guests. Another big plus for me were the cats. I'm a huge animal lover so it was such a bonus to see cats in the lobby, dining area and outside. They were treated kindly by guests and staff and were never forced out. They seemed to be respected which was nice. If you aren't a cat lover or are allergic, this may not be the best hotel for you. The only downsides for me was that the bed and pillows were a bit hard and vegetarian options were somewhat limited. Overall though I was very impressed with the hotel and would stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff was incredibly kind – they really cared about every detail to make sure we felt comfortable. The food was absolutely delicious, with lots of variety and fresh ingredients. Everything was clean, well-organized, and had a relaxing atmosphere.

Don’t pay extra for a sea view. It’s just a lottery anyway and you get what you’re given. I asked to see other rooms and got told to wait until Friday (6days after arrival) as there would be more options. On Friday we got shown 1 other room which was just as far back and 1 floor above. Many people who we have met have far better view’s (so a good view does exist) despite these guests not paying any extra. I will be seeking a refund on the elevated price - but I suggest you don’t risk paying extra in the first place and just chance your luck. You could get a far better view without paying more

Disappointed by Some Aspects of Our Stay While the hotel staff at reception were absolutely brilliant and kind — genuinely helpful and welcoming — our overall experience was let down by the restaurant staff. During our stay, two of the restaurant workers (one of them named Furkan, the other I can’t remember, but they were always together) made my friend and I feel uncomfortable. They kept making snarky comments and even went as far as asking my friend for her number, which was completely inappropriate and unprofessional. Their behaviour came off as very weird and off-putting. The food itself was also very disappointing — it really didn’t meet our expectations at all, especially considering the price and the fact that we were hoping for a relaxing holiday. Another major issue was the room. Our balcony faced directly into nearby residents’ homes, and they could clearly see us from their balconies. It felt awkward and uncomfortable — not ideal when you’re on holiday trying to relax and enjoy yourself. We had music playing quietly on our speaker, but we could tell it was bothering the locals, which made the whole experience feel tense. Honestly, I don’t think it’s fair for either side — us or the residents. The only real positive was the beachfront location. It’s close to all the main shops and areas we like to visit when we come to Marmaris. Sadly, despite that, we won’t be returning to this hotel.

Let’s start with the good point. LOCATION. Room are dated but can’t complain with how clean they were fresh towels daily That’s the only positive this hotel provides. Arrived Wednesday hotel was pretty quiet food very limited but did manage egg on toast. By Thursday the full hotel was rammed (fully understand it was Eid) 99% of the hotel was occupied by Turkish people celebrating which I have zero issue with however the hotel seemed to them only accommodate for them,food music and even speaking! The hotel was so full we could never get space around the pool or at entrainment,which resulted in us having to seek alternative outside the hotel, no ideal on a ALL INCLUSIVE HOLIDAY. Due to the celebrations we had people around the pool till 6AM YES 6AM!! Playing music and drinking then by 9am pools rammed again. Hotel allowed this just going to say this as a fact if that was British people we would have been made to leave the pool and keep are noise down!! After day 1 the food was totally inedible couldn’t find anything we could eat other than chips so again we eat out everyday. Will say most of the guests were friendly despite the language barrier however some were rude and entitled. Wouldn’t come again

Romeo Yildiz

Im now giving this a 2 because I’ve been reading the reviews and everyone is saying its horrendous. Me and my mum came here 7 or 8 years ago and it was a 5 star, just looking at it now it looks very poorly and not taken care of very well. It’s gone downhill so badly.

Robert Gordziejewski

I went on trip to Marmaris with mine family and we stayed at this hotel for 10 days. Food was lovely and always fresh. Everyone could find something to eat.

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

Stell

Overall, it was a nice hotel. Food was quite bland in taste, for me, but my Turkish bf liked it. Entertainment was not as expected, but given the time of year, there were hardly any customers, so I totally understand on the hotels part. The location was a 10 minute walk away from the beautiful beaches and Entertainment on the strip was good. I highly recommend going to Sweet Corner for food and night entertainment. They do a great full English/Scottish breakfast too, with real pork. Sweet Corner also provide a free travel service to and from thos hotel as they are in partnership with them!

Kevin Cook

Great holiday resort, got a last minute deal and was much better than other hotels we've stayed at in Turkey (including Lara beach). Drinks all fine and in decent sized glasses (not the tiny plastic things). We stayed all inclusive and can't fault the food at all, snack bar was really good as well for burgers, pizza, pasta etc. Entertainment not the best but same sort of stuff you get everywhere, mini disco, magic show, fire show etc. Great scenery around the area. All staff were polite and helpful.

Emre Akarca

We've had an amazing experience at the Sahra Su Holiday resort, all staff are very friendly! The food is amazing and its a 5min ride to the beach with their own bus service to the Paradise beach. Our kids loved all staff especially this gentleman named Ferhat who was always taking care of them and playing every time he’s around. I do highly recommend this resort and we will definitely be coming back!

Tayla Roe

We went here July 2025 , we loved every minute . We were upgraded to a swim up villa which was amazing . We spent time in both our swim up pool and the pool for all where the entertainment took place . We found that the snack bar was the best for English snacks - burgers , pasta , chicken nuggets , chicken strips . They did crepes and waffles which were to die for 😍😍 We ate in the restraint three times a day . Breakfast was my least favourite but that’s because I don’t really eat in the morning a so I just ate fruit but there was a large variety of foods , freshly cooked fried eggs, omelets . Beans salads , toasties Each meal time was all different . Lunch and dinner were great we chose to sit inside with having my little girl it gets very hot in the evening so there is a always a choice of sitting outside however we found there were a few wasps and I hate wasps 😂 We booked a boat trip and a trip to the markets through Frank who works at the hotel , he was so lovely and helped out with any problems you had with the hotel , he came and checked on everyone most days just to make sure everything was all okay , he was very polite and friendly. If you want to book a trip I definitely recommend contacting him or finding him around the hotel. Finally if you are unsure about the hotel there is a Facebook page which has a group chat so any questions or concerns you can put on there and someone will always answer . Like I said we rate this 4-5 star We’ve even got family going again next week due to how much we enjoyed it . Taxis take you to the local town cost no more than 5 pound Paradise beach , book through the hotel ! That way you get beds included and a lift there and a lift back . Otherwise it’s 10 in a taxi and 10 pound per bed per person .

Peter Davis

Unfortunately this is a 1 - 2 star resort at best. The rooms are terrible. The pools are terrible unless you book a bungalow etc. you can only access two pools if you have not booked a bungalow or swim up apartment. There are plenty more decent resorts around. Don’t go here. The staff are okay. Really helpful. The food is okay. The main pool is loud all day with music and people. The alcohol choices are limited and pretty foul tasting. There are not many great things to say really. Sorry.

Kerry

Whilst I don’t think this hotel is quite a 4 star the grounds are absolutely beautiful and with lots of pools to choose from you really can’t grumble. Yes there are cats, which isn’t the hotels fault but they are harmless. We had that in a hotel in Turkey before too. All the staff are super friendly and make such an effort with you, the entertainment was okay but nothing special (however maybe because we were early season). We still had an amazing time making new friends round the pool. The food was okay , I stuck to meat and salad but the snack bar was good, and taxi is cheap into the town. We also had treatments in the Anka Spa, did the after sun program on our last day and really added an extra treat to our holiday. My daughter was covered in chocolate which she absolutely enjoyed! Skye was fantastic and offered brilliant customer service. It is a lively hotel but we’re okay with that , drank lots, made some new friends and absolutely loved our holiday here

Just come back from this hotel with my family of nine grandchildren. This hotel is absolutely fantastic in the prime area food excellent so many areas to sit down coffee areas mocha areas great kids area cleaning staff for excellent I Was on the second floor room 217 cleaning staff always was polite and clean the rooms very good tiles change bedding changed I found most of the staff to be very friendly specially in the dining room area. English manager was excellent. Done everything to help you while we was out there we booked to come back in June 28 next year The only thing I didn’t like about the pool area was the baby pool There’s a fence that goes round I thought that was too close to the sunbeds not giving people enough space to walk-through always constantly having to move for other people. Maybe this needs to be looked at but that is the only thing I can about this Hotel, I believe it’s not the hotel’s fault. It’s just badly designed all in all my family had a great time out here excellent.

Kate Stevenson

Absolutely lovely hotel, only big gripes is the room/bed sizes, the rooms are tiny, we got moved twice to different rooms but still extremely small, as were the beds! So pre warning if you’re a larger person. We ended up upgrading to a suite at £25 extra per night just to get room to move. Another gripe is the entertainment, if you can even call it that. However apart from that, the food was incredible, not a single complaint about any of the food on offer, as well as the drinks, especially having iced coffees included on all inclusive! The pool is also extremely large however it is one solid depth the whole way round which my child struggled with as there’s no shallow to deep end it’s just 150cm everywhere. The hotel was always spotless! The location is also great, few mins walks to the beach and also shops galore everywhere!!! Over all we were sad to leave and enjoyed this holiday!! We would recommend it but just be mindful of the bedroom and bed sizes.

Anam Ahmed

Very disappointing stay. On arrival, we were given a tiny room with just one double bed and a single makeshift bed. Completely unsuitable for a family of three, especially as one of us is very tall and couldn’t even stand properly without hitting his head on the ceiling. When we raised the issue, we were told to come back the next day for a room change — so they clearly knew they had made a mistake giving us that room in the first place. By then, most of the proper family rooms were already taken, and we ended up losing half a day of our holiday waiting to be moved. When I asked for a late check-out to make up for the wasted time, they refused, saying that giving us a new room was enough. The attitude was dismissive — Tania in particular couldn’t have cared less about our situation. Unacceptable service and very poor standards. Would not recommend.

Sharin Akhter

Been here last year aswell but never reviewed so thought give my review based on my experiences- the staff were helpful and polite. We received two rooms as there were 6 of us. My room included me, my daughter and baby, we were provided with a travel cot, room was clean and so was bathroom, only thing it was very small! We had our small suitcase literally on the small table because there was no room but aside from that fantastic. The cleaning staff were absolutely lovely and a gem for the hotel, food was perfect with attention to detail, clean and spacious. Pool was fab only downside is you either wait for hours for someone to leave to get a sunbed or you don’t get one as majority people were putting towels on sunbeds at 6am! There’s a spa which is extremely quiet but looked immaculate and the male in charge would walk around looking for newcomers to use their facilities which is an additional charge. The male made it clear that a male would be providing services of massages/turkish baths, facials etc for males and females would provide for females. Twice asked and given same answer. Unfortunately it was a front they let on perhaps to be considered professional? Or the fact that it’s supposed to be a 5* hotel. Anyways it was a massive let down as when going in for Turkish massage it was a woman doing men- very awkward! And reassured for Turkish bath would be a male for man, really wanted experience before we left as had couple days left and to my surprise yet again, it was a woman giving Turkish baths to the men. They are quite secretive about it so ladies if you or your partner want to experience the spa, please be aware. Really enjoyed the rest of the holiday the spa was such a let down.

Not beachfront but neighbouring properties must be annoyed as it is loud nightclub until 1am. Then you have drunks making noise in hallways. We stayed 7 night all inc. No issues with food or drink. Rooms were small we tried to get 2 adult 2 children but sofa could not be slept on it was too hard. Tip those who serve you well some workers are definately better than others. Reception a bit funny with me talking to me like i was stupid there are a lot of working class holiday makers staying mayve that was their view of English. Security is good. Lifts are small so expect to take the stairs a lot. Would say more adult based as limited things for children no activities the animation was for adults. The heated pool is not to UK standards of 29 degrees it felt same as outdoor pool around 18 degrees. It has hammam but expensive close to UK spa prices. Lack soundproofing as you can hear neighbours easily and even floor above clear conversations can be had. Overall is a 4 we paid around £28.10 per person per night with destination2

From the bottom of our hearts, we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel. My husband and I booked it through a travel agency and read the reviews beforehand. The hotel has two sections, but they are located close to each other. We were first given a room with windows facing the road — it was very noisy, and the sound insulation was poor. However, the next day we were moved to a different room, and there was no more noise. The staff are friendly, and the cuisine is a true form of art. Everything was incredibly delicious and fresh — not a single day did we get tired of the food! A special thank you for the quality, taste, and freshness! The cocktails were also great. The housekeeping staff are like hardworking bees — every day they cleaned thoroughly, changed towels, and kept everything tidy! It was truly amazing. We sincerely thank you and recommend this place to everyone. The beach is from the hotel and located nearby. There is security, plenty of sunbeds for everyone, and no need to rush in the morning to reserve a spot. Order is always maintained, which is another big plus — thank you again! We highly recommend this hotel!

Irina MN

To be honest, i choose this hotel by the reviews and it was the best decision i made. Very comfortable hotel, the rooms and the furniture at the beach side are a little bit old, but everywhere is very clean and thats what matters. The food and the deserts are simply amazing. Very warm atmosphere, and everyone is very attentive and respectful. A big thanks to the manager Irina, who made my birthday special by organizing the dinner on the piers. Definitely will recommend

Victor Tobi

Excellent choice for families or couples. Rooms are cleaned daily and feel modern. The staff go out of their way to make you comfortable. Food selection is great – so much local flavour. The spa is a bonus after long beach days. Location is convenient for walks into town. Really impressed.

Laura Sitiajeva

We had a lovely stay overall! The hotel is clean, and the rooms are nice with great showers. The staff truly stood out – exceptionally friendly and polite, making us feel really well looked after throughout our stay. The food was very nice, with a good variety and even some vegan options. The cocktails were delicious, and the waffles were absolutely to die for! The desserts are quite good. One of our favorite parts was the charming gentleman who played the piano in the reception area during the early evenings – such a lovely touch! There were a couple of downsides for us. The beds were hard, and we woke up achy after poor sleep. Also, we were a bit disappointed that the coffee station on the terrace wasn’t open – we really enjoy a good espresso, and it's usually one of the highlights of our day on holiday. Evening entertainment ends quite early, so if you’re looking for a livelier atmosphere, this hotel might not be the best fit. We love to dance, and while there’s no disco on-site, there are several fun pubs nearby if you're up for a little outing. All in all, a great experience with just a few things to keep in mind depending on your preferences!

Jane Kot

It’s our first time here. Hotel is close to the beach with amazing sea view. Food was the delicious. I’m vegetarian and had many options to choose from. Entertainment wasn’t very loud and finished till 11 p.m. Rooms were clean and room service was very pleasant. SPA procedures were extra paid but a quality was excellent. Hardly recommend the turkish foam massage (this option is available also for kids). It is the place to come back over and over again.

Senga McIntosh

All inclusive stay, wish I was self catering Location good. Rooms very small but clean. For a large hotel NO ENTERTAINMENT they need to keep up with the times. I kept the best for last THE FOOD IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE not a lot of choice for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and the snacks are disgusting, if you can call them snacks, everything is overcooked and they can't seem to keep the food hot, the only choice is take it or leave it, and that goes for the drinks too, sofa's and alcoholic very limited, please take on board my review as this is true and factual,

SH NR

We stayed here in August 2025 and had a really nice time overall. The hotel is in a great location—just a short walk from both the beach and the main road, which made it super convenient. The pool area is lovely and a great place to relax, although some guests lacked consideration and behaved as if they owned the place, which was a bit frustrating. The staff were genuinely lovely—always helpful and friendly. At no point did we feel uncomfortable or unwelcome. A few things to keep in mind if you're a bit picky: the food selection at breakfast and lunch was quite limited. Dinner was the highlight, with more variety and live cooking stations outdoors, which added a nice touch. One minor downside is the noise from a neighboring hotel, but it quiets down at night and didn’t affect our sleep. Overall, we had a good experience at Kayamris and would recommend it—with a few small caveats.

Reneta Parjova

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Kayamaris! The rooms were very clean, the food was delicious and varied, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The location is perfect – close to the beach and the city center. We would gladly come back again!

Kiyara Adielle

We had an amazing experience. Thank you so much. Everything is perfect and nice. All the stuff are friendly and approachable. The open buffet and the unlimited drinks are my favorites. We will definitely be back again. A plus for the cute furry cats. Thank you for letting us experience a beautiful staycation.

Sally

The hotel and most of the staff we're lovely. Well where to start on the food...if you like salad your in for an enjoyable slap up meals. But as for the cooked food it was awful, not everyone wants chips or wedges everyday, and the chicken beef and turkey looked and tasted watery bland and just not appetising at all. Dessert's so minute you could miss them. Drinks package not much 5 cocktails wine beer As for the all inclusive only snacks we're 3.00 in the afternoon. We decided to do a Rhodes day trip through the Rep of the company our transport picked us up for 7.30 am.. no problem apart from they refused to let us have breakfast before we went, as breakfast doesn't start until 7.30..I explained we we're being picked up then, got told no breakfast until 7.30..nothing offered for packed lunch either. 2 meals down one very angry holiday maker. Hubby being diabetic, couldn't get brekky until we got to Rhodes ar 11.30. I will definitely never return to this hotel again..everyone I spoke to while on holiday felt the same.

Martyna Sargalska

The view is beautiful and the location is great. The reception staff is friendly and helpful. The lifeguards are attentive and ensure beach safety. Unfortunately, some people break the pool rules, but the lifeguards are vigilant. More thorough cleaning of the common areas would be helpful. The hotel needs renovations. However, the food selection is limited, as it's almost the same every day. Everything seems to have been reheated hundreds of times, so it's not very fresh. Overall, it's not the best value for money.

Barbara K.

I really like this place—I’ve stayed here twice already. The undeniable advantage of this hotel is its location and some of the wonderful people who work here. The hotel itself isn’t brand new and could use a bit of a refresh ;) But I can see progress compared to last year, and it’s great that the hotel listens to guests’ suggestions and tries to improve. As for the food, I think it’s really good—there’s always plenty to choose from. I try to eat healthily, and there were always lots of vegetables, greens, and good quality meat available. The gentleman who makes delicious omelets for breakfast always brightened my mornings 😀 Unfortunately, I don’t remember his name. In general, the staff in the main restaurant really go above and beyond 👌🏻 The atmosphere at the hotel is perfect for relaxation—beautiful views, nature, plants, and a peaceful area. The pool is great for people who like action, music, and entertainment. Personally, I loved spending time by the sea—there was no loud music, just the sound of the waves and a wonderful view of the bay, plus professional lifeguard supervision. Especially The lifeguard Mahmut working at the sea is very professional, his work on the beach gives a lot of confidence 👌🏻 People like him really create the unique vibe of this place :)

Mihaela Gabriela

We have just checked into this hotel and unfortunately we are very disappointed. We received a room without a balcony even though we paid for a standard one, and a miserable apartment. The sewage smell is unbearable, and the conditions are no more than 2 stars! They also charged us an extra €35 per night for our dog, even though this is not specified on the website. I have stayed at over 30 hotels in Turkey, but this one is by far the most disappointing! Be careful to avoid this resort!

Aliaa Abdo

Extremely Disappointing Experience Not Worth a Single Star I rarely write negative reviews, but my stay at La Branda Mares Hotel in Marmaris was beyond unacceptable. The room was shockingly dirty — thick dust everywhere, even inside the closet and drawers. The windows were so filthy they were barely transparent, as if they hadn’t been cleaned in over a year. The bed sheets were stained and covered in hair, clearly not changed after the previous guests. We asked for housekeeping multiple times and were told someone would come — no one ever did. The bathroom was in a disgraceful state, with dirt and grime that made it feel unhygienic and unfit for use. As for the food, it was honestly terrible. Poor quality, no variety, and not worth the risk. This hotel does not reflect even the most basic standards of cleanliness or hospitality. Avoid it at all costs there are much better options in Marmaris for the same price or less.

Aleksandra Rybinska

We had a great holiday in Marmaris but the hotel itself leaves a lot to be desired. First off: the food in the main restaurant is not very good. The same dishes again and again, the meat dishes are tasteless, overcooked. The meat dry. The service is badly organized, the tables dirty, you have to look for cutlery yourself. The young people working there seem not to know what they are doing. Our room was nice and cleaned regularly but the main lobby in the afternoon was always dirty. Tables and chairs covered with crumbs of food and spilled drinks, that nobody cleaned. There were not enough sun loungers by the pool and beach so people were putting their towels there already in the middle of the night. I got up once at 5 am to get a spot at the beach but i was on holiday and not ready to get up that early every day so that was my only time at the beach which is a pity. The servers at the lobby bar did not know how to make drinks and their work was also badly organized. Even if there were few guests they had trouble keeping up with demand. Generally you had the impression that the hotel couldn't cope with the number of guests. My husband wanted to participate in archery which was continuously advertised for the afternoon but during our 2 week stay did not take place once. Once the target was broken, another time suuposedly the animator had an accident. The list of excuses was endless. Although i would not call staying at the Labranda Mares a bad experience, i would not repeat it. Mainly because of the food. We rented a car and drove around the region and ate out a lot. And the food was fantastic which made the contrast with the hotel food even greater. It can't be that hard to cook meat properly. The animations in the evening were also not for me, but many people seemed to enjoy them, provided they'd find a place to sit as there were not enough tables and chairs for such a large number of guests. In general: the Labranda could be a great hotel, but it needs renovating, larger facilities and better management. Less chaos. The way it is now it is not a 5-star hotel.

Declan Fitzpatrick

What a wonderful hotel. Food was great, staff service and cleaning was top notch. Did not expect to be waited on so well, especially on the beach where drinks were brought to us. Big shout out to all the staff, all of them were great and would gladly go here again. Definitely the best hotel around the area from what I could see from exploring! Thank you to Figen our cleaner, who arranged our towels into a nice lovely heart with petals on the day of our anniversary. It was really unexpected and nice! Most clean hotel I've ever stayed in

King Abuja

It's worth every penny you spend. The only thing you will be sad about in this wonderful hotel is your vacation is over. My wife and I have traveled a lot, and we have never had such memories, happiness, delicious food and peace of mind as we did in this hotel. Don't hesitate for a moment to book this wonderful hotel with its staff, its cooks, to everyone working in this hotel. Thank you from the heart, Nabil from Lebanon.

A Truly Unforgettable Family Holiday at Casa de Maris – Already Counting Down to Next Year! Our recent family holiday at Casa de Maris was nothing short of magical – from the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the exceptional hospitality, luxurious facilities, and warm, welcoming atmosphere. The food and drinks were out of this world – every meal felt like a five-star dining experience. Whether we were enjoying breakfast with a sea view or sipping cocktails by the pool, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The variety on offer kept the whole family happy (even our pickiest eaters!). The staff were truly the heart of the hotel. Impeccably professional yet incredibly warm and attentive – nothing was ever too much trouble. A special thank you to the housekeeping team, who ensured our rooms were always immaculate – spotless, fresh, and beautifully maintained throughout our stay. We also have to mention the spa, which was simply sensational. So relaxing and luxurious – our family loved it so much we went twice during our stay. Total bliss! Another unexpected highlight was the barber – absolutely outstanding! My dad, son, and son-in-law all visited him twice during the holiday and couldn’t stop raving about the service and quality. The entertainment team was brilliant – full of energy, fun, and creativity. They kept using smiling all day and into the evening with great shows, games, and activities. However, the absolute star of the show for us was the lifeguard. This amazing staff member worked tirelessly and with genuine care, ensuring every single guest was safe, happy, and well looked after. His dedication and constant presence gave us such peace of mind – he truly went above and beyond. And of course, we mustn’t forget the resident cats who added an extra bit of charm and character to the whole experience. They were so friendly and clearly well cared for – our animal-loving family adored them. We were so impressed that we’ve already booked our return visit – this time for two weeks! We simply can’t wait to be back at what we now consider our second home. Casa de Maris – thank you for the most incredible holiday. See you next year! 🌟

Our first time in Turkey and what a lovely holiday it was, we spent most of our time at the beach as we found the staff at the pool did have there favourites and would give people right next to us drinks and completely ignore us, this was the same in the evening a dinner& entertainment. However the staff at the beach were amazing with everyone, the life guard and man who does the drinks for the jetty are lovely people and work very hard, made our holiday 100 times better thankyou🥰. Food was lovely and entertainment was amazing. Overall we had a lovely stay and would come again. We went with sunny temel for all our transfers and airport pick up/drop off- highly recommended using him lovely man as well and good prices- doesn’t rip you off unlike some who linger in the hotel.

We stayed at Casa De Maris for our Summer holiday in July, 2024. We were super excited to visit this hotel after seeing such fantastic reviews on facebook groups. Upon arriving to the hotel, staff were lovely and helpful. However, as our stay went on it was clear that staff had their favourites. They'd get a lot quicker service when stood at the bar and great drinks made for them, special drinks that weren't on the menu, just fab presentation and just a friendlier demeanour. It became very clear that these facebook group admins that promote this hotel, are clearly treated very differently to normal people visiting, for example, pictures of the drinks on these facebook groups look excellent, we weren't once given a drink like that, despite tipping when we got good service. There were a few times I saw cocktails that were blended, with cut up fruit in them, in lovely glasses with colourful straws etc. I'd ask for the same and i'd get it in a tumbler with no effort of presentation whatsoever, which I wouldn't care about usually but it's just the difference in treatment, I was also happy to tip for it. When analysing it, the facebook group is rather strange and a bit cult like if i’m honest. But, I don't think you should have to tip to get what you paid for, the holiday wasn't cheap and I understand that workers are probably underpaid, however it is their employer's job to pay them, i will tip when i receive good service. Another example would be that at meal times, the waiters and waitresses would reserve tables and immediately go up to their favourites to chat with them and take their drinks order, whereas we would have to ask for a drink as somebody walked past. Also, sunbeds are impossible to get around the pool, we visited in July and it was clear that beds were being reserved during the night, I heard a few people say that the lifeguards/ waiters reserve these when paid to, which is ironic because the hotel has posters everywhere about prohibiting sunbeds being reserved before a certain time. In general though, throughout our stay, the staff weren't rude and were mainly pleasant, we just noticed this. The rooms are nice and spacious, good sized balcony. Bed wasn't the comfiest though and we were told the room was cleaned daily, with the minibar restocked daily also. The minibar was only restocked once during our 5 night stay and only with two waters and a fizzy drink (didn't restock everything we'd used). Food throughout the hotel wasn't the best, we aren't fussy and didn't like majority of the food. If you're a fussy eater, I certainly wouldn't book this hotel. They also need to increase their selection for people with allergies and dietary requirements. The hotel advertises that they use branded spirits, they certainly do not, at least not with everything. I love Disarrono and their Amaretto 'Disarrono' was certainly not Disarrano, despite being told it was. Regarding the area, the area around the hotel is lovely, however expect to be harassed by the shop owners selling counterfeit designer items. I know this happens all over Marmaris, so it doesn't reflect anything about the hotel but just beware. Finally, on our last day, we decided to pay for the late checkout as we had a late flight. I asked the man at reception how much it was, whilst opening my purse to see how much money I had. He clearly saw the money in my purse and he says "45 pounds" '. I paid it and went back up to the room, my boyfriend was gobsmacked at the price and then after seeing the facebook group, we realised it was cheaper than this. So yeah this wasn't a great end to the holiday and made us a bit more wary of trusting the staff. All in all, l'd say we didn't have an awful stay but it wasn't amazing and it could've been better. The main thing l'd say is that this certainly isn't a 5 star hotel, so if that's what you're looking for id book elsewhere. For the money we paid, I don't think it was good value. For our first visit to Marmaris, this disappointed us, I’d definitely recommend Oludeniz/Hisaronu as opposed to Marmaris.

My stay at this hotel was wonderful. The view were wonderful. We had a wonderful time with friends. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The staff were all very attentive. I'd like to thank Sultan, who was part of the animation team. She was very warm-hearted and always took great care of us. I recommend everyone to come here.

Denys Honcharov

The best hotel I’ve ever stayed at! Excellent service, always polite and smiling staff. Clean and cozy rooms, delicious food, great cocktails, well-maintained grounds, and a perfect location. The beach and bars are a real highlight. It’s a place with a special atmosphere that makes you want to come back again and again. I recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality and comfortable vacation. Special thanks to the bartenders at Blue Bar - you’re amazing! Thank you for the great vibes and incredibly tasty cocktails! The only downside: some guests reserve sunbeds with towels as early as 3 AM and don’t show up. I hope the management will address this (for example, by removing towels from unused beds and then return it for additional fee). This hotel leaves lasting memories and a strong desire to return. Highly recommended!

My family and I stayed at Orka Lotus Beach and had such a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely lovely, with a great variety every single day that kept meals exciting and enjoyable. Our room was spotless on arrival and beautifully cleaned every day throughout our stay. One of the real highlights of our holiday was the entertainment team. They were always friendly, sociable, and full of energy, making the atmosphere so much fun. I especially want to mention Sultan, who truly went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. From day one, she made us feel welcome and at ease, always taking the time to chat, laugh, and keep us company. Her warmth and positivity made such a difference and turned a great holiday into an unforgettable one. I can’t thank Sultan and the team enough for their hard work and kindness. Thanks to them, and the hotel’s wonderful service, I would highly recommend Orka Lotus Beach to anyone looking for a perfect holiday!

Aysel Aliyeva

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were always friendly. Breakfast was wonderful, with a wide variety of options, including fresh fruit, pastries, and hot dishes. I'd also like to thank Sultan for his warm welcome. We were always chatting and laughing. Her warmth made our stay wonderful.

Me and the family have just got back home from our stay at this stunning hotel, we have had the best time and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. The staff are amazing, rooms cleaned daily and the food was delicious. Lots of entertainment throughout the day and evenings. Hoping to return very soon and once again look at the beautiful views. Thank you Orka for an amazing holiday ☀️☀️

ali zaiter

came with my wife from Lebanon to spend 4 nights at Blue Bay Platinum Hotel on September 6 till 10, after reading many positive reviews about it. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the room, which is closer to a 4-star standard rather than a 5-star, for the following reasons: 1. Soap and shampoo were not provided regularly. After several requests, we only received shampoo but no soap. 2. There were no 5-star amenities such as a proper minibar or other essentials. 3. The air conditioning was difficult to use with the remote control, and there was unnecessary plastic covering at the bottom of the unit. 4. The electronic room key was frustrating and often problematic. 5. The safe box was not free of charge and quite expensive to use. On the positive side: The food was excellent, very diverse, and of high quality, with a great kitchen staff. A staff member named Aygül was extremely kind, professional, and helpful. Overall service in the resort facilities was good, except for the room experience. The beach was beautiful and relaxing, and the pools were enjoyable.

Alan Newman

We have just returned from a two week holiday at the Blue Bay Platinum Hotel and give it 5 stars. All the staff were amazing and could not do enough for you. One of the waiters in the restaurant always tried to keep a table for us in busy times, can`t thank him enough. The bar staff were friendly, especially the one at the adult only pool. House keeping were always cleaning as were the pool attendants always tidying up after us all. I would highly recommend the Spa-fitness centre attached to the hotel. Tarzan the salesman is a genuine nice guy and the girls working in the spa definitely are brilliant at massages. I would have no issues in returning next year. Thank you again all of you for making our holiday so enjoyable.

Iain Scott

Lovely staff. Food really nice with lots of variety. 3 pools including an adults only if you want to avoid the busy other pools. If you visit definitely go for a Turkish bath and massage.... We opted for the deluxe package (£150 for two people ... Lasting 2 hours) and can honestly say it was superb. Great way to start the holiday

ken De Rock

The reception on arrival was excellent, the staff were great and friendly. The food is lovely with choices from breakfast, lunch to dinner. Oh, you would love the snack bar, too. There were 5 swimming pools, including an indoor and kids/ toddlers section. The rooms are very spacious for families. I would definitely recommend The Blue Bay Platinum anytime or any day. My kids and wife loved every experience. Every second night, there was live music or acts performing.

Mert Gökkurt

This hotel is amazing to come on holiday with your family. The rooms are well maintained and clean. The food is really good en you can eat throughout the days. The bar is also nice with different cocktails everyday. The location is the best part about this hotel in my opinion. It is litterally like 150 meters away from the private beach you get when you book here.

Jessickaaa Penn

Honestly would not recommend this hotel in the slightest, not only do the reception staff understand a word of english they are very rude and unwelcoming. We had cameras/sensors in our rooms and the doors did not lock, the staff messed around in the lobby early hours in the morning creating ample noises when we asked to be moved rooms they told us if we didn't like it to leave, we had to book a new hotel.

Ashton Wallace

I beg that no one stays here ever!!!! we have had over 11000 lira stolen out of the room by staff , the window was broken when we arrived and took over 3 days to be fixed after reported but also the manager was very rude and aggressive when confronted about the theft from our room claiming he makes over 1million lira a month and that he do not care about if the money was taken and that he hoped it was more so the police was called and dealt with the situation and from talking with other guests they have had similar experiences when staying here. Read before booking this hotel

Don't reply SiA

Would not recommend, I stayed here with my wife and 2 children and we have had nothing but issues I have had money go missing rooms not being tidy on arrival and also staff stealing. On the night of the earthquake a manager from the bar was laughing at my daughter for being scared and frightened so I will never be staying here again

Naeem Mohamed

Had a fantastic stay at Golden Orange Apartments in Marmaris. The place was clean, comfortable, and had a great atmosphere. A special shout out to Mehmet and Mohammed Yousaf at reception they were incredibly friendly, helpful, and made us feel right at home. Would definitely come back

DK

3 STAR who gave it this rating a blind man with a dog. CRAZY Everything cost extra, Air Con, safe, Internet, all extra. SAFE : advised to do its a metal lock box system at the front in reception, where the master key is hung up, but our stuff was kept safe. But there was alot of thefts from room from other guest. AIRCON: LUCKILY weather wise we managed, but you can't open the windows for some fresh air until the music stops around 1am. INTERNET: Not alot of money but it was also poor, my advice get the WiFi code from the bars in and around the hotel it's free and signal was better. LOCATION: As a family of 4 with teenaged kids having Turkish waiter oooppss im mean entertainer gyrate their hips and waite towards my wife and young daughter was not acceptable. BIZARRE: 25 minutes walk assault course of avoiding men from every bar and restaurant. Witching Hour : 2030hrs (8.30pm for you northerners) seems to be when the places really gets going, but in you face loud, CRAZINESS. BLUEPORT : Nice area, good for shops we took a scenic route avoiding the Crazies down the main drag, 25 minutes. Taxis approx 300 turkisk. No more. Golden Orange: sorry not coming back, some staff very nice, other could need a little more understanding of their clientel and customer service, MOROCCAN waiter was the best in my opinion, who was the true "GOLDEN boy" Cleanliness around the pool was poor glass and cups left, and their was broken glass or thick plastic in places. NO LIFE GUARD ON DUTY- and people aloud to get away with some outrageous stuff. Room cleaners were very much hit or miss as well, sometimes a good job the next time looks like nothing was done, Everyone quick to leave Tip envelopes. Give us the respect and services, and we will part with our money.

David Richardson

Had a fantastic stay at this hotel. Room was spacious enough, with very effective air conditioning which kept the room cool. Beds were quite comfortable, although unfortunately the traffic noise from the road outside did disturb me on a few occasions. Maybe the offer or provision of some ear plugs would have been helpful. This was the only thing stopping it from being a five star visit. The cleaners, though, excelled at their job, and were very gracious, friendly and pleasant, always offering a smile. Food was excellent on the whole - a vast selection of food, so you could eventually find something you liked in a massive seating area, and breakfast outside if you liked graced with absolutely breathtaking views. Entertainment throughout the day was tremendous. The team were brilliant and the foam party was an amazing experience. Heartfelt thanks to Memoş, Sam and Bella in particular for their friendly attentiveness. Lots of shops and stuff about to keep you occupied. Absolutely brilliant stay - would certainly recommend - the slightly disturbed sleep did not deflect from an enjoyable stay. Would definitely stay again

Tom Williams

Entertainment team were amazing, especially Sam and dobby. Stuff going on from 10am to 11pm never a dull moment. All staff helpful, food has its basics everyday then some stuff changes everyday. Snack bar from 12-5 is delicious and drinks are amazing

Andy

With a long professional experience in hospitality and a passion for beach holidays, I can confidently say Pasa Beach Hotel is among the top my family and I have experienced. Great views, delicious food, and exceptional service stood out—led by the ultra hands-on GM, Mr. Huseyin Kaz, whose leadership sets a very high standard. Huge thanks to the whole team for making us feel welcome an appreciated. Highly recommended for anyone seeking quality and value.

Demi French

We had a lovely holiday in this hotel. And Security.... Bahar, is an asset to your team such an amazing woman who is helpful goes above and beyond made our trip to Turkey so much easier. We enjoyed our time here she is always happy.

Nigel Barney

Had a fab holiday, drink, food, staff all good....only downside was could never get a bed by the pool and not gonna get up at silly o'clock to do it.....just need to stop all doing it......other than that it's a 4 star hotel as you'd expect great place

Farida Shahzad

Not a Comfortable Stay – Needs Serious Improvement I stayed here recently and was really disappointed. The room wasn’t clean, and the mattress was extremely uncomfortable—hard to get a good night’s sleep. The blanket looked very old and worn out, which made me question how often things are replaced or cleaned. On top of that, the cupboard and hangers were broken, making it difficult to even unpack properly. Overall, the room felt neglected and poorly maintained. Even though i paid some extra money for upgrade the room. Wouldn’t recommend unless major upgrades are made. Basic comfort and cleanliness just weren’t there. some staff members were helpful but some were rude and disrespectful. Food was good.

genabicav

The moment I arrived and saw the hotel, my first thought was, What have I booked? From an aesthetic or facility standpoint, it definitely needs improvement. The exterior gave off the impression of a motel in a rundown area. The room itself was very outdated, and even the fridge was empty. There wasn't even any complimentary water provided. The food was bland and just adequate, with a very limited selection available. In my opinion, this hotel should be rated no more than two stars—it certainly does not meet four-star standards. On a positive note, the reception staff were pleasant, approachable, helpful, and friendly, which was a redeeming aspect of my stay.

Zak Roberts

We stayed for 7 days in May-June. Lovely staff, good pools and decent grub & pub. Some people complained about the food; We enjoyed it but can be a little repetitive after a week. Rooms are genuinely decent and spacious but if I were you I would opt to pay for the key-locker within the wardrobe just in case. Since me and my partner enjoy doing outings for most of the holiday, the hotel was perfect for us and we had food to look forward to after returning exhausted from our daytrips out. AlsoAWESOME STAFF.

Can Kanbay

The hotel is at a nice location but that is the only good this about this hotel so far. Room we recieved was old. Air-condition was from 90s and was barely cooling itself. Mini fridge was not working. In fact it was heating up the room so we had to unplug it. TV also very old. Didnt try if it works, no need to get electrocuted. Room in general was dirty, hairs all over the place. Needed to clean the room ourselfs to stay. Didnt have chance to change hotel since it was part of a 5day tour. The maid left the balcony door open soo we had some mosquitos to kill during the night.. so much fun when u have to get up at 6 and had no sleep because you where chasings mosquito all night. This is our 3rd hotel this tour and it is the worst by far except for location. Location in good. Cant comment about the food, the room was so bad/dirty we ate outside to minimize our stay.. Forgot about the elevator that goes to 4th floor when u press 2..

Malcolm Hale

Don't go there , food crap staff not very friendly half way through shower no water. Went to bar got 2 drinks and the barman pushed the tip box in my face .

G Rat

In a pretty good location for beach and amenities, rooms are of a decent size but you have to request them cleaned. Food and food selection is poor at best, same offerings presented differently every day. Hotel management really needs to learn some manners and maybe attend a customer relations course although the reception staff were very pleasant and helpful. Has a 4 star rating on the plaque outside, would rate as 2+ at best.

Trinity Steel

I had such an amazing time at the Ada Julian hotel. We stayed for a week, and I have no complaints whatsoever. The staff are all so so friendly, and polite. The spa was brilliant (thank you very much for the experiences). The food is delicious, with many different choices each day. The beach is only a minute away. I would recommend this hotel! Thank you again.

Selma Elezovic

Truly a harrowing experience at this hotel. We checked into our “non-smoking” room after check in time to discover a cigarette smell so strong that a cloud of smoke might as well have left the room when we opened the door. We opened the balcony door and immediately advised reception that we would have to move rooms if the smell was still there on our return that evening. We were told this would be fine. A few hours later we returned to the same strong smell, even after housekeeping has supposedly attended. We again went downstairs to the lobby to report this, however this time we were told that the hotel was full and we were unable to move until the next day - we were never able to move even the following day due to high occupancy. My partner and I ended up buying air freshener just to be able to sleep that night. A bad smell would not warrant such a scathing review, however that was just the tip of the iceberg. Snot from the previous guests was still on the walls of the bathroom. Large puddles of water were left by the bed and bathroom; a safety hazard if someone less stable on their feet was to check into that room. Worst of all however, the mattress protector was not changed from the previous guests. Suspicious stains, dead skin and hair were littered all over the sheets. At this point having visited reception 3 times for things that should have been addressed before we even checked in was exhausting. Housekeeping finally attended to the issues we reported after much back and forth with receptionists that looked like they were completely mentally checked out. It seemed there was only one helpful person at the front desk. I had informed them that we would be requesting our first night be refunded from Booking.com as I honestly felt disgusted to even lay my head on the pillow. We ended up getting a measly 58 euro back after paying 350 euro for our accommodation. No offer of further compensation and no answer from the hotel itself, just a generic apology email from the customer service team at Booking.com. I would advise you stay anywhere but here.

The hotel is in an excellent location, conveniently close to local amenities and just a stone’s throw from the beach. The bedrooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The pool area is spacious, with plenty of sunbeds available—each benefiting from all-day sun exposure. One drawback, however, is the gym. The facility is significantly under-equipped for a 4-star hotel. It features only three sets of free weights, with the heaviest being 10kg. Additionally, the benches are outdated, and the treadmills were not functioning during my stay. As someone who enjoys maintaining a training routine while on holiday, this was quite disappointing. I ended up using a local gym nearby, which offered far superior facilities. A noteworthy perk is the hotel’s private beach access, which includes complimentary sunbeds. However, this feature is not advertised or signposted, and I only discovered it by chance. The buffet is of a good standard, with high-quality food, and the staff throughout the hotel are friendly and attentive. One area that could use improvement is the air conditioning in the communal spaces. Unlike other hotels I’ve stayed in, the lobby and shared areas here were uncomfortably warm, despite AC units being present—they were simply not switched on. Overall, the hotel enjoys a fantastic location and offers a pleasant stay, but a few improvements, particularly to the gym and communal comfort, would elevate the experience significantly.

SIobhan McCabe

Positives: The location is amazing! 😊 The pool is gorgeous, very clean, and there were always plenty of sunbeds available. Our room was spotless with plenty of space, and the bathroom was large with a nice walk-in shower. The staff were helpful, especially the cleaning team – they do a fantastic job! Negatives: We chose the all-inclusive option – don’t do it. For beer drinkers, there’s only one beer on draft, and it’s not even the local one. The cocktails are awful, coming from a machine and served in terrible plastic cups. The food was disappointing overall. I asked for ice cream and was told it’s only served at 4 PM. When the time came, the queue was around the corner – it honestly felt like feeding time at the zoo. Lunch was awful, and dinner was only occasionally okay. We ended up eating out most nights – the restaurants on the strip are all fantastic. It felt like the hotel didn’t really want you to eat or drink there. I would stay here again for the location and the facilities, but I definitely wouldn’t choose the all-inclusive option next time.

İlkay Yuksel

We stayed at Green Nature Diamond Hotel for 7 days and everything was absolutely perfect. The staff were amazing, always smiling and extremely helpful. The Food & Beverage team was excellent, the bar staff were so friendly, and the food was both delicious and full of variety. Our room was always spotless thanks to the housekeeping team. The adult pool was calm and peaceful, ideal for relaxation, while the animation team went above and beyond to make sure everyone had fun. Even though the hotel was very busy, the service quality was far above expectations. Another great advantage is the location – the beach is literally right next to the hotel. There are lifeguards everywhere, which made us feel very safe, and there is even a doctor available 24/7 inside the hotel. On top of that, the hotel has its own supermarket, which was very convenient. Definitely one of the best holiday experiences we’ve ever had. We would love to come back again and we highly recommend it to everyone! 👏👏👏

Kat Salak

Amazing hotel, great location, right on the beach, helpful and friendly staff. Very clean, good food, lots of options. Separate grill area outside for dinner. We booked side sea view room and the view was a bit disappointing with a tree blocking. Plenty of bars, good drinks and fast service. There is also non all inclusive bar showing live sport on site. Friendly entertainment team but it does get too much sometimes when they come over for a chat when you try to relax by the pool. However, there is adults only pool and it is much more quiet. Felt very safe, security visible and doing great job. The only criticism is, we were constantly approached by hotel sellers, both by the pool and in lobby bar area - hairdresser, photographer, excursions, spa, massage etc. It really is too much, I am happy to listen to what they have to offer but then they come back and ask if I decided something. I had a massage and it was good. Overall a very enjoyable holiday and we will come back next year

Went here for a few nights after prime beach hotel and I have to say it's good in comparison. We had a very young baby in our family group, so we weren't looking to sunbathe or swim etc. We just wanted to entertain them and this hotel was perfect for them. They had a whole section full of toys, where they could play and crawl and do what they wanted. There were more choice of foods and a la carte menus. Very delicious. It is dark but when we went it wasn't busy (April 2025). Couldn't hear much noise in the rooms and all the guests were polite.

Nicola Roberts

Mixed Experience – Some Highs but Many Lows The staff are friendly and work incredibly hard, which we really appreciated. Rooms were okay — we had one with three single beds, and it served its purpose. However, the mini-fridge wasn’t refilled daily as expected; we had to track down the staff member each time to get it sorted. Day and night entertainment was decent, though it did get repetitive in the evenings, so we ended up going out a few nights for a change. The food was lovely — you could eat plenty if you were willing to wait. Expect to queue for about 20 minutes at dinner after spending 10 minutes trying to find a table. The dining area felt chaotic, with people pushing, shoving, and cutting in line during tea time. Finding a spot in the lobby bar to relax after dinner or a night out was nearly impossible. The hotel doesn’t seem to have enough seating to cater for the number of guests. No entertainment there either, which was disappointing. In my opinion, the hotel is just too big to properly function as a 5-star resort. I’ve stayed in smaller 3- or 4-star hotels that offered a much better experience overall. One major concern: my mother-in-law was asked by a cleaner for money because she was going to be off for two days. She was approached directly and asked for cash before even cleaning the room — this felt really inappropriate. If you can get this hotel at a bargain price, then sure, it might be worth it. But I personally wouldn’t rate it as a true 5-star experience.

Spart Icle

Booked this place very last minute with Jet2 for 6 (4 Generations from 89 to a 19 Month old). It was a risk as we had no time to research etc. Definitely premium Marmaris in every way, location, resort, services, the food was amazing, the desserts are truly works of art. Staff are everywhere you need them to be and super friendly and helpful. The place is immaculate everywhere. Will come again it was that good. Everyone had an amazing time. Not the cheapest place but worth it looking at other places in the vicinity.

B H

Staff are great, very friendly and accommodating. Bottled water and juice is restocked in the rooms regularly. Balcony is a good size. Great location, short walk to the beach. Plently of bars nearby and quiet compared to other areas. Unfortunately the hotel itself let's it down. The rooms were much smaller than advertised with half the ceiling sloping away. If you're over 5ft you'll have to crouch down. Showers are tiny. Sunbeds by the pool seem to be reserved every morning by 8am As I'm writing this there must be 100+ sunbeds with towels and less than a dozen people sat by the pool. Staff need to remove towels if the sunbeds are not being used. Food is average, drinks are watered down and music is very loud. You are also woken up by the mosque at 3/4am everyday.

dale harris

Me and my partner stayed here for 5 days. The staff were amazing. The hotel was very clean. We were surprised by the hospitality, all were very helpful and the entertainment team “Bobby and Diego” are very friendly. The food was lovely with lots of variety, the drinks are what you expect at an all inclusive. The location was really good , lots of pubs, bars and shops nearby, the beach is a 5 minute walk and you can get the public bus for a small price into Marmaris from the main road near the hotel. We recommend the spa downstairs for a Turkish bath and massage although they will try to upsell after saying that you need more treatments to fix whatever ailments they’ve diagnosed you with. However , they probably make a lot of money through that and the services they provide are excellent. The only annoyance we had was not with the hotel itself. Like most all inclusive hotels there seems to be a sun bed war going on and to get a decent sun bed you will need to put a towel down at around 6:30-7. Overall, the hotel was very pleasant and I definitely recommend it.

Nice hotel, clean but small. Lacked the 'luxury' feel id expect and had from other 4 star hotels - no alcohol in the mini bar, no towel service round the pool, Rooms small but well kept and comfortable. Unfortunately our room didn't have a balcony which was missed, but on arrival we were given a double bed rather then two single they swapped us immediately with no fuss. Pool is small and glad we didn't go in peak summer time as I don't see how there is possibly enough space when the hotel is at full capacity - literally sitting on top of each other. Food was good, something different every night, drinks ok - obviously watered down but they always are! The entertainment team Bobby and Diego where funny and friendly but the evening entertainment was a little hit and miss - Turkish night was good, Latin dancers were not. Bingo game every night with the odd quiz. Sundays however there is no evening entertainment which leave the atmosphere a little stale A really wide range of ages staying- from 60+ to young 20 somethings All in all an enjoyable week at a nice hotel

Anderson Krew

Room cleaning, hot water shower, air conditioning conditions were very good, my room with sea view and balcony were enjoyable, I was very satisfied, I want to come again in the summer season. I recommend it for those who want to come to Marmaris. There were not many options in the hotel, it is a small hotel but we also experienced the spa with my wife, the staff was very attentive but the staff who did the skin care also got into my massage, although I did not ask if it would be soft, they did it hard and it hurt, I did not enjoy it, in general, it is a nice hotel, would I come again, I will come but I will not come to the spa, my holiday was trash, I suffered and despite telling them, the staff continued the same, the skin care was short, I do not think it is worth the money I paid.

Rami Gupta

Me and my friend stayed at Ideal pearl for 5 nights and returned last night. All I can say is that it was a vooooow experience. I am very surprised and aghast to see few of the bad reviews which don't make any sense. This hotel has a superb location, food is vivid and extremely tasty, staff is so very kind and hospitable who will do their best to give you the best experience, rooms are clean n beautiful. You can try and find flaws but I promise that you will be unsuccessful. They deserve 5 star plus. Please don't get carried away with fractional bad reviews as these are from people who are genuinely sad in their lives and are serial moaners. Thank you so much from bottom of my heart for such an enjoyable experience and time. Thank you xx

Doga Ozmen

The staff were all wonderful, especially the food & beverage team. They worked like bees – so fast and efficient that I don’t think they even had much time to rest! Our table was never left dirty for even a moment. In general, the whole team was incredibly attentive and friendly. Thank you to everyone for making our stay so enjoyable. The view and the sea were also absolutely beautiful! 🌊✨

Lovely place to spend a day on the beach at Harmony Beach Club. Great Service from Willy, lovely friendly welcome from the owner. Such a shame we were only here for a week as we loved it here. Free sunbeds & parasols, which were so comfortable and right by the water. Delicious food & drinks at reasonable prices. Highly recommend Harmony Beach Club.

Shar B

I booked 5 days stay at Marbas hotel May 2025 and stayed for 1 night as I was misled by photos of the place when booking. I was absolutely appalled and disappointed when I arrived at the hotel. It was nothing like what was advertised and HAS NOT HAD ANY UPGRADES! If I wanted a 2 star hotel then I would be fine but on top of this failing hotel, the bed sheets and towels were dirty, not to mention the bug that the guy kicked out the room onto the balcony whilst giving us the tour. We booked as a couple and given room with two single beds. The amount of cracks and holes in rooms was awful (was shown 4 different rooms when I complained but each of them were equally poor.... To add Ali the manager wanted to charge me for "upgrade" of a room due to sea view which was also very tired looking and dirty). I checked out the very next morning and had to pay to book into a better hotel, namely Prime Beach. My holiday actually began from this point on! I would not recommend this hotel if you're looking for a decent standard! Check out Prime Beach Marmaris and guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Raphael Maza

The staff was great. Everyone was friendly, the food was good and the location was perfect for us. The room needs a little TLC, the wardrobe was broken and it was missing one bedside table but the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. It is a great value for sure.

The Mar Bas Select Beach offered a Tranquil Early Season Escape with Delicious Food and Outstanding Service (stayed 17-20 April 2025). Location: The location of Mar Bas Select Beach in Icmeler remains a significant advantage, offering direct access to the beautiful beach and a pleasant short walk to the town center. The serene views of the bay and surrounding mountains in early April created a truly relaxing backdrop. Being situated slightly away from the main hub of Marmaris (approximately 8 km) contributed to the peaceful ambiance. Rooms: My standard room provided a functional and clean space, equipped with necessary amenities such as air conditioning, a mini-fridge, and TV. The balcony was a lovely spot to enjoy the quiet mornings and evenings. While the décor might be a bit dated, the room served as a comfortable base for my early April getaway. Free Wi-Fi was available throughout the hotel and beach area, which was convenient for staying connected. Facilities: The direct beach access was a major highlight, with the hotel providing comfortable sun loungers and parasols. The main restaurant was a pleasant surprise, and the pool bar was also open and accessible. Food & Drink: The all-inclusive dining experience in early April was a definite highlight. The breakfast offered a good variety to start the day, and both lunch and dinner exceeded expectations with a delicious selection of Turkish and international dishes. The fresh salad bar and tempting desserts were particularly enjoyable. The local alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages included in the package were perfectly satisfactory. Service: The staff at Mar Bas Select Beach were exceptional. From the moment of arrival to departure, they were consistently friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Whether it was at the reception, in the restaurant, or interacting with housekeeping, their positive and proactive attitude truly enhanced the entire stay. Atmosphere: Early April offered a wonderfully peaceful and relaxing atmosphere at the hotel. The quieter setting, combined with the "Adults Only 14+" policy, created an ideal environment for a tranquil break before the busier summer months. Value for Money: My early April stay represented excellent value for money. The combination of the prime beachfront location, the surprisingly delicious food, and the outstanding service made it an incredibly worthwhile and enjoyable trip. Specific Highlights/Lowlights: * Highlights: The direct beach access, the peaceful early-season atmosphere, the surprisingly excellent food, and the exceptionally friendly, attentive, and helpful staff were the standout aspects of my stay. Overall: My stay at Mar Bas Select Beach in early April 2025 was a truly delightful and relaxing experience. The hotel's prime beachfront location, the surprisingly delicious food, and the outstandingly friendly and helpful staff made for a memorable holiday. If you're seeking a quiet, adults-only beach getaway with great food and exceptional service in the early season, I wholeheartedly recommend Mar Bas Select Beach.

We stayed for one week at this hotel with Neilson Holidays. The food at the hotel is excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. My daughter lost her one in a taxi one night and the reception team reassured us that they would be able to locate it and get it returned - and then did just that! first class service and a team that really cares. Thank you.

Best 5* hotel we've ever visited! I cannot praise this venue enough it is really top dollar! No cheap buffet meals, all cooked fresh for you at individual chef stations. Lovely chilled pool vibe with DJ playing ambient mellow beach music and great scuba diving!! Highly recommended 5**

Paul Grant

This is one of those situations where the great reviews match the reality. This resort hit the mark on so many counts. The location...really picturesque - from the sea to pine hills behind. Food superb and staff friendly and attentive. Really lovely ambience. Hope to be back soon.

Rooms are very small, no closet no iron & coffee machine. Just 1 big bottle no other complimentary or hospitality service The bathroom has only hand wash , shampoo and shower gel nothing more. The service is bad I ordered a glass to my room it took 15 mins to come , the food is bad and expensive I wouldn’t recommend it tbh

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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

4 star 🤣🤣🤣🤣 not a chance. Drink selections are a joke. The food.... utterly horrid. Had a bad belly from day 3 of 11 days.the scenery is out of this world but the hotel needs major changes.family of 5 and we got 4 beds and the youngest had to sleep on a sofa.not a sofa bed. This was after 3 room changes. If your british, avoid at all costs.Trust me !!

Cazza Short

Lovely place, good quality food, but let down by cleaning staff, we were informed on arrival that sheets were changed every 3 days and were only changed the day before we were leaving. The cleaning staff really did the minimum effort, had to ask for toilet roll twice, all they seemed to do was fold up the top bed cover. However we really did love this hotel, the dining waiting staff were excellent. The room although large was tired, huge rips in the net curtains, but again on a positive we had a large balcony with a room within the main hotel. I would have scored it much higher had it not been for the cleaning.

A Hidden Gem That Sparkles! ✨ I approached this trip with slight trepidation due to some negative reviews, but I am so glad I didn't let them deter me. This hotel is an absolute gem, and my experience completely surpassed what you'd typically expect from a 4-star establishment. First and foremost, the cleanliness is simply outstanding. I've never seen a hotel so meticulously maintained. There was a constant parade of staff, diligently cleaning rooms, corridors, and public areas. It was truly spotless. The rooms themselves are basic, yet clean and comfortable, providing everything you need: TV, fridge, and air conditioning. The staff across the entire hotel were incredible. In the bars and restaurant, they were always attentive, proactively looking after guests, cleaning up, and sweeping the floors. The service was consistently top-notch. A big thanks to all the staff for making it a great time. The food was a delightful surprise. The buffet style offered a wide variety of hot and cold dishes, and we were never disappointed. Lunch was a particular highlight, with an extensive selection of items to build our own fabulous salads. The kitchen staff even went above and beyond by cooking my wife a special pizza, different from the buffet offering. Even the small issues were handled with remarkable efficiency. When our bathroom light blew on the second day, it was replaced within a mere 10 minutes of reporting it. WiFi was excellent overall. It was a bit temperamental, with the signal dropping briefly on two occasions. Finally, the location is superb! It's just a 2-minute walk to the beach, with everything you could possibly need right nearby. Overall, our experience at this hotel was exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend it and would definitely return.

Do not stay here! Just to be clear, we are in no way hotel snobs. We stay at 3-star hotels most years in Marmaris. This hotel is by far the worst experience I've had on holiday. The rooms are tiny and dated. We had to ask for a bigger room due to having a cot for a 3-year-old child. The food is honestly some of the worst food I've ever experienced. If you don't get there for the all-inclusive opening, everything is freezing cold and some of the weirdest combinations of food I've ever been offered. The main swimming area with the slide is not attached to the hotel building, and you have to walk across the street to access the main pool area. Staff are friendly; that's about the only bonus. I've stayed at Club Candan and Alenz Suite in Marmaris, both 3-star hotels, and they are ten times better than this dated hotel. It's also a death trap when wet. Tiles everywhere, and people are falling all the time. Avoid this place at all costs!

On arrival we were in a family room, when the holiday was booked we had upgraded to a connecting family room, this was not the room that had been paid for. When the reception was approached by myself and this was questioned I was told that 'it 's the same size' & 'it's still a family room'. I demanded we were given what had been paid for, which was responded to with 'we don't have any rooms available until tomorrow', when I asked why it was allowed to be booked and pointed out that they had fraudulently sold a room they did not have, their tune changed and we were offered a connecting room once they had been cleaned the next day. Overall initial interaction was poor, and hard to communicate due to lack of English speaking staff. The food was simply a regurgitation of the previous day, every day. This was boring and did not really warrant the price that the hotel charges. Between 1400 and 1600 snacks were offered which was a saving grace as they offered pizza, chips, nuggets and pasta/Bolognese. If it had not been for this, then it would have been difficult to find anything appetising at the onsite buffet. Pools were ok, they were small and crowded unfortunately as the size of the complex is not reflected on the space in the pools, the slide was good fun, open between 1000 - 1200 & 1400 - 1600. WiFi. What WiFi... I mean the symbol shows up but if you enjoy seeing 'obtaining IP address' more than actually being connected, then this place will suit you to a tee, however if you would like to be living in the 20th century, go somewhere else. Overall, I am being overly generous with the 3 star rating, the only reason it gets that, is simply due to everything locally around this complex putting it to shame. I will not be bringing my family back to the hotel as every other option in the locality seems like it would be a dramatic improvement. The reception manager I spoke to was smarmy and undeservingly self assured. Which was a bit of a kick in the proverbial teeth considesmarmyt seemed like we had been fraudulently miss sold a connecting room upgrade and they could not have been less accommodating to fix the problem they thought they would get away with. The grounds of the complex were boring. If you do book here, punt for Room only and save yourself some money, or go somewhere else and you are likely to have an overall improved experience.

Nicole

We were wary about staying because of mixed reviews but for anyone considering staying at Sebnem, don’t worry. They have a nice pool, the staff are lovely and the rooms are comfortable, just slightly dated but for the price this place is fine. It’s close to the beach and shopping centres, excursions are easily booked through the staff or on the main strip. We are due to leave today and because we have 2 small babies the owner has let us keep the room for the remainder of the day free of charge! We would return!

theresa Turner

No privacy where our room was, could not open our curtains due to our room had the bar and eating area straight infront of it . no proper bed linen just a itchy blanket to cover , room always smelt of smoke , would not recommend. Full of rules and prices incase items got soiled yet they give you rough holey towels .

Mandy Corson

I would just like to say I've just come back from my holiday stayed at sebnem Apartments jack the owner he makes you feel welcome and so do all is staff the rooms are clean everyday and the food is so nice twice I've been now and I will be going back again x

Hey, it's me - who was shaking more than the earthquake🫣😂 My stay in Sebnem was a fairy tale😍10 very intense days in a beautiful climate☀️💦🌴 I went to Marmaris for the first time and I couldn't have found a better place👍😁 The Sebnem apartments meet the standards of a small cozy apartment with own swimming pool and bar area, the rooms are clean, room service at the highest level💪‼️The food they prepare is fresh and delicious🤤in the bar you will get delicious drinks at an even better price💎🍻 The owner Jack is very friendly and helpful, as is the rest of the SEBNEM crew 😍 Charlie is the star of this place, a very friendly, cheerful and caring gentleman who serves his knowledge in every situation 🤗☺️💞 I highly recommend this place for a holiday at any time of the year 💓 Best regards 😍 Monika

Oliver Gajtanski

We had a great 10 days here. All the staf were so friendly from reception, to waiters, entertainer's and cleaners. We had such a lovely holiday. The food was amazing. All "A la carte" menu brekafats and dinner made fresh to order. Good variety of dishes and cuisines. And the entertainment was amazing from pool party's, water volley ball, water polo. They were working so hard to keep us entertained throughout the day and night. Kids disco and dance club every night and then adult entertainment with different shows and acts. The hotel was close to shops and amenities and only about 10 mins walk from local beach and strip of shops and restaurants. Thank you Alenz Suite staff for an amazing holiday.

Michael N

Just home from 10 nights here.... FABULOUS!! Check-in was smooth and easy and the reception staff were pleasant and helpful on a few occasions throughout our stay. The room was clean and comfortable. We had a two-bedroom apartment, which had an en-suite/shower in the master bedroom and another bathroom and shower for the living room and kids' bedroom. There were cooking facilities (two-ring hob, extractor, fridge, microwave, kettle, cutlery, utensils etc) provided and a pleasant balcony with chairs and table. Housekeeping attended daily to make the beds and freshen the room and to provide fresh towels. The pool is amazing, especially for kids, with big slides. There is also a baby pool with little slides. Staff were always vigilant around the pool, keeping everyone safe. There were plenty of sunbeds; our family of four never had a problem getting beds together. There is a separate terrace area with sunbeds which is a bit quieter and popular for those without kids. The entertainment was excellent and pretty much non-stop throughout the day, with activities for everyone from toddlers to adults. Evening entertainment was brilliant, with big shows every few nights and smaller events in-between. Dr. Curly and his team made sure that there was never a dull moment. There is a playground for the little ones and an arcade/pool shack for the bigger kids. The on-site restaurant was very good, food was excellent, great service and very reasonably-priced for a hotel, serving meals and drinks throughout the day. The location was fabulous. There are loads of restaurants, bars and shops within easy walking distance and a taxi rank right outside. It was only 5-10 minutes by taxi to the harbour but this meant that we were far enough away so that the prices for everything were significantly lower. The area felt very safe with police cars passing every so often and there was never any sense of trouble. There is an on-site tattooist, hairdresser, shop and health spa (all payable, of course). There is also a currency exchange service available... the rates were very slightly lower than the local banks but I'm ralking maybe 1 or 2 lira per GBP than the official rate, so if you're exchanging a couple of hundred quid, you're getting a couple hundred lira less, which will not get you much. If you prefer though, there are plenty of exchange options within a 10-15 minute walk. Overall, an excellent experience and I would recommend this hotel, especially for families with children.

Nick McCann

Deceiving (family of 6) On the face of it, this place looks nice, and it is....BUT.... If you're looking for a peaceful family holiday, this is NOT the place for you. If you wanna be up till 12am drinking and partying, fighting and shouting, then definitely book it. Walls are paper thin, music goes on beyond 12pm, making it nearly impossible to sleep. Lots of rowdy guests at night. Has more in common with ragamuffin. Most of the staff pleasant enough. Air conditioning for 2 weeks is almost 300 pounds, which goes off when your card is out of the wall. (If you leave it in, the cleaners take it out). Extra card? Extra 10 quid! Entertainment times at night need a rehaul. Kids Entertainment doesn't start till 8.30pm. Food not great but ok. Place is too busy for the facilities. You need to be up at 5.45am to go and get a sunbed, otherwise you won't get one. If you do bring your kids, look out for them and ask them to respect others. The waterside attendant "Curly" is brilliant, but none of the kids listen to him. Seen young kids swearing at him because they cant follow rules. Unfortunately, we won't be back here again, and in fact are thinking about either changing hotels or flying home early, 5 days in to a 2 week holiday

Jonathan Kilvington

Just returned from 14 nights here, we've thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The bar staff where all excellent, the waiters Kadir and Aussi looked after us well. Kadir especially went out of his way to sort out a bill discrepancy with mixed up drinks put on our bill. Not saying it was done intentionally but these things happen. The entertainment team where fantastic. Scrooby, poppy, john, funky and even fiona kept us all laughing. Thanks to you all for making it an unforgettable experience. The only downfall to the whole time we was there is the food. This could need a bit of a re-vamp to bring some better chefs as most of it came out too well done. The rooms where adequate for our needs, the air con worked well just a bit expensive if your paying for both rooms.

Jacqueline Graham

Loved our family holiday here...1 week wasn't long enough. Staff were all amazing especially the lady who cleaned my apartment..above and beyond! Would highly recommend these apartments and if I return to marmaris I would not hesitate to stay here.

Chelsea Overend

Lovely staff, clean hotel, very enjoyable stay. We came as a family of 5 with a autistic son and everyone was so welcoming and happy! Nothing was ever too much for them! The staff were amazing with everyone made the holiday very enjoyable and would definitely come back again. We celebrated our daughters 15th birthday on our first day and they made it extra special for her was a lovely touch ❤️

Jimmy Kirk

Stayed for 7 nights, the room was very clean and adequate for our needs. Good shower and beds are very comfortable. Staff are amazing and can't do enough for you. Food was excellent, as was the cleaning service from the maids. About 2 miles from the city centre but there are plenty of bars and restaurants close by. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay. The only downside is there are some buildings being built across the road, but everything was excellent. Aircon is extra if you want it, but it's not forced onto you.

Leanne Burman

I want to write an honest review! We really enjoyed staying here, it’s a really relaxed, clean and welcoming hotel! The food was really tasty, I wouid recommend venturing out over your stay as there are many different places to eat. The staff were amazing - they really did make our stay complete - especially Kenzo! But everyone was so friendly. You have to pay extra for air-con and WiFi -Around £100 for both for the week. It’s a-bit of a walk to the beach/main strip - 40 minutes exactly but you can get bus directly outside. If you didn’t want to venture out you have everything you need in the hotel. They prefer you to pay with cash but we ran out half way through so used our card and they was ok with this as we had no other way.

Lesley Houghton

Well where do I start. Rooms and beds are spotless and comfy Food is delicious. They have some great meal deals so ask the staff Nothing is too much for the staff friendly and very helpful and will support those who may need a little extra help. Forgot to mention a great laundry service so get your washing done before leaving.

Waqas Malik

Small but beautiful and adequate rooms. Clear water pool. Nice slide in the pool. Kids friendly. Very nice for the price. Recommended

Jocelyn Capule

This is our last minute booking as our first hotel was cancelled. We are happy with the location! It's near everywhere I love. A short walk to Blue Port and the shops, bars you name it. Buffet breakfast is good. Room size is small compared to other hotels we stayed in but it's cleaned everyday and staffs are brilliant so can't really complain.

Abdullah DEMİRCİ

We booked this hotel from Expedia. It was a total of 5 nights. The hotel and its rooms were old but there was a nice buffet breakfast for 2 mornings. On our third night, there was a 5.8 magnitude earthquake. My family and I barely escaped with our lives. We shook very badly during the earthquake. The hotel was almost destroyed. We asked for a refund for the remaining two nights. Our refund request was rejected by the hotel because we left the hotel by our own decision. We will not come to this hotel again, considering the price-performance comments. You should love yourself and do not stay at this hotel any longer.

James Altman

the location of the hotel is just perfect really close to everything but also quiet enough to relax staff were super friendly and helpful they always tried their best to assist with anything i needed breakfast was open buffet with lots of options and everything tasted really nice the pool was big and very clean actually i heard other guests say the same thing so it seems like everyone was happy about it prices were quite affordable especially compared to other hotels i stayed in around marmaris but even though it's cheaper the quality is way better than most of them the place was clean comfortable and the service was excellent i’d definitely come back here again without thinking twice

Begüm Yılmaz

if you have no expectations from a hotel and looking for a place to sleep and be close to the beach and restaurants, this hotel can provide these... but from my side i never want to enter this hotel ever again, we stayed in a room at the top floor and the ceiling was so low, i hit my head multiple times and in my last day i had a bruise on my head, the room was not so clean, and the bathroom looked like it was from a horror movie...

John Sawyer

Me and my wife went in there for food and drinks, it’s in the hotel complex with a pool if you wanted to swim,bar staff really friendly and reasonably priced,people keep saying that marmaris is getting too expensive but u just need to shop about and look for the right price,me and the wife have been coming to marmaris for some years and we still don’t think it’s that expensive

Mirza A

Very good hotel and facilities overall. 1st night threw us off a bit where they were double booked but they sorted it by midday next day. Food was hot and miss but still enough to get by (all inclusive)

Jhon

⸻ First of all, I have never seen a hotel like this before in Marmaris. The towels were dirty, the floors in the rooms were filthy, and the beds were stained. There was no hot water in the bathrooms, the air conditioners were not working, and the ones that did work were leaking water. Even though there were available rooms, the woman at the reception refused to change our room. I even saw her yelling at an elderly woman. None of the guests seemed satisfied. The food was terrible. There were flies all over the hotel and in the open buffet. I even found an insect in my food. None of the staff speak English — not the bartenders, not the receptionists — so we couldn’t explain our problems to anyone. The chefs were behaving inappropriately towards my wife and other women. Despite all these issues, the general manager spent his days drinking tea and playing board games. The hotel has two blocks, and one of them doesn’t have an elevator. There are no bellboys, and no one offered to help us with our luggage, so we had to carry our bags up to the fourth floor by ourselves. I definitely do not recommend this hotel. Do not come here!

meike altink

The people are friendly. The rooms are simple somewhat outdated but clean every day. There is a salad bar but as a vegetarian your dinner stays with fries and salad which is a shame because the food for meat eaters changes every day. And if I ask they say nobody is vegetarian here. Which is really not okay because I paid also for all inclusive and I don't feel included so this is a no go for vegetarians!!!!

Lisa Clabburn

First time and last time first, we got into the hotel and we’re not given bands so we’re all inclusive. I had to pay £25 for the safe. also the detour to the hotel they lay you into a local shop to spend more money before you get to the hotel. We got dropped around the corner and explained where to go which is not very professional the first night we were there there was a fight with the members of the staff With glass. The manager took him outside where an ambulance and police car came. Everyone saw it in the hotel as we can’t take pictures I have no proof told Thomas cook this and the hotel said it happened outside the front of the hotel which is a complete lie. The manager called all the staff near the pool table and shut the sliding doors never even said sorry to any of us there was even small children there it was very scary The next day half the kitchen staff were missing Thomas Cook know about this and I’m sure the people on the 23rd of June knew exactly what I mean but the hotel said nothing happens so there are big liars. I will not go to this hotel again and as for showing entertainment on your website there is none and also after 10 pm, you have to buy your own drinks as they are extra the food is the same every day nothing exciting been to Turkey before but never will I come back to this place I’ve told Thomas Cook I would write a review And Thomas Cook, I won’t be booking with you again again

Damian Kocur

Well placed, comfortable little hotel with great service. Clean rooms and good basic amenities. No major issues so definitely recommended!

Zuzana Uhrovicova

This hotel is a very good choice for a short stay in Marmaris. The location is fine—just a 2-minute walk to a private beach. The property itself is modern, spotless, and very well maintained, with a private pool that added a relaxing touch to the atmosphere. What really stood out was the staff. Everyone was exceptionally friendly and helpful, always greeting guests with a smile and making sure we felt welcome. Even during my early check-out, they prepared a delicious breakfast to go, thoughtfully packed and presented with genuine warmth. This hotel is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and conveniently located place to unwind. I’d definitely recommend it and would love to return in the future!

Besi

Clean hotel with a very good location, but no parking. You have to park the car elsewhere for a fee of €10 per 24 hours, which isn’t much. The breakfast was nothing special, but still okay since we stayed only one night. What I didn’t like was the air conditioner in the room, positioned directly in front of the bed, blowing straight into your face — leaving it on would be a 100% guarantee to catch a cold! I don’t know why the central air conditioning wasn’t working, but it seems they have an issue with it. Another thing that left a bad impression was that in the morning, the air conditioning in the hotel lobby wasn’t working, while in the restaurant it was. As I said, they seem to have a problem with it. For me, this is a 3-star hotel.”

Ruben Bus

We stayed 5 night at this hotel. While the room was alright overall, you can see in some aspects that the "premium" feeling is just upon the first look. Take a closer look and you will find shampoo and bodywash watered down to the point it slips through your fingers before you can apply it and rusty door hinges. However, the breakfast was our biggest nightmare. The staff seem to have no idea what is going on, add to that they barely speak any english. There wasn't one day where we got a correct order in under 30 minutes. Seriously, if a 4 star hotel is incapable of hosting an a la carte breakfast, maybe they should move back to buffet style. Add to that they have 3 main options: turkish, english or pancake breakfast with the option to add eggs and coffee (horrible coffee). Feel free to take a look at the "veal sausage" among the pictures I attach. This is the cheapest, worst quality sausage you can get in turkish stores. Good way to cut costs in a premium hotel I guess. Also, I have never seen a hotel where we dont get a regular duvet or blanket just some random sheet. Just to end this review on a better note: the outside pool area and fitness center were great, also the beach area with free lounge chairs. They always had enough lounge chairs for all guests. While I think the issues I listed can be rather easily fixed, it did have a big negative impact on our holiday here, if they can fix these this hotel has good potential.

Piotr Piatkowski

I highly recommend this hotel. It was recently renovated, everything is fresh and nice, the rooms look even better than in the photos. Each has a flat TV on the wall as well as a kettle, fridge and hairdryer and basic cosmetics in the bathroom and good air conditioning and a safe for free. Rooms cleaned every day, coffee, tea and mineral water in the minibar also refilled. The bed and pillows are very comfortable, it really looks very good. We had room 302 partially facing the street, but you couldn't hear the loud music that I read about in other reviews. We didn't hear anything. Breakfasts included in the price, only 2 to choose from: English or Turkish, but always fresh and tasty. Staff helpful and very friendly. Location good, just a step away from the Promenade, there were no sun beds on the beach or water in the pool in March, I recommend going from April.

Babayeva Kamilla

I don't know where these 4-5 star reviews coming from. This hotel has absolutely nothing to do with the word “premium.” From the moment we arrived, the corridor and the room were unbearably stuffy. The air conditioner barely worked and had visible mold inside. The fridge didn’t work at all, and when we complained, the staff simply dismissed it, saying their fridges don’t freeze, they “only slightly cool ” — supposedly to 4°C, but it was nowhere near that. So don't think to buy an ice cream and bring it to your number The hairdryer didn’t work, and the shower kept switching between boiling hot and cold. At dinner, we were served a "juice" — 20% juice , the rest is water. I Don’t even talk about the food. "4 star hotel" cant provide proper juice to their guests ????? This is insane ! For a 4-day stay, i paid around $743 — it was absolutely not worth it!

Louise Gillam

Just returned from a week, we wont be returning. Beach location was amazing, that's really the only positive. The food wasn't catered for the English, we ate out mostly. Many items not covered in the all inclusive, the cocktail are a basic juice with either Vodka or gin! Staff wasn't very welcoming, very limited English speaking on reception which caused confusion. No pool, we didn't reolise there were 2 Begonville Hotels and the pool was at the other hotel.

L IB

While the location and view was good, the rooms were small and had a few issues: - one light would not turn off unless the swipe card was removed meaning no electricity overnight for charging phones - there was a glass door fridge in the room and the fridge light could not be turned off, even through the night - quilt provided was basically a towel - incredibly uncomfortable and scratchy This made for a very poor nights sleep… Also, while this is not unique to this hotel and cannot be helped, expect to have music from nearby clubs blasting until 2-3am.

If you want to receive Helicobacter pylori, this is perfect location to received it, I was in honeymoon trip with my wife for 6 Days, food is terrible, everyday same lunch: chicken with sausage, rice and tomato, I returned yesterday and now i have Helicobacter in my stomach, only positive thing is people who works there in serving , animation program on hotel is same everyday

Oisin Doyle

The bar staff Emre and Burak made our holiday so much fun nice drinks good service and happy to play any music you like location is great close to shops and beach good value for money food is basic but for the price is fair.

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.

Nemanja Strbac

The rooms are very poorly equipped. In the superior room, the furniture looked like it had been cobbled together as if it came from a junkyard. The room is large but half-empty, with unused space. On the terrace, there was a chimney releasing smells from the kitchen, and it was very noisy. When we asked to be moved to another room, the staff were neither polite nor willing to offer us one in the same price range as the superior room we had paid for. First, they offered a standard basement room, which was worse, so we refused. The next day, they offered another small standard room at the far end of the hotel, which we eventually accepted.

Milica Sekulic

Excellent hotel experience! The rooms are okay and well-equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The staff is friendly. The location is perfect. Food is also great!

Ross Cooper

We had a fantastic holiday here, met some great new friends. Location is great, short walk to local bus or taxi rank... Very short walk to beach and local shops and restaurants... Food was good, there was always something to eat, Healthy options and as always non-healthy options... The staff were all friendly and work very hard to make your stay enjoyable. Gym is reasonable for a hotel gym, tennis court isn't the best, but we had fun on it. The pool was decent, cold though as we expected, okay once you are in though. Will definitely come again.

Ashley Dennis

Our first trip to turkey and to Oludeniz, but certainly won’t be our last! From the moment we arrived at the Hotel, the staff were friendly and make you feel very welcome! The entertainment at the hotel throughout the day is fantastic with something for everyone! The entertainment crew with DJ Tony, Miss Mary and Robin, keeps you enjoying the trip throughout! With something different on each night it’s a fantastic hotel! A two minute walk from the beach and five minute walk from the main town, what a place and what a country! Can’t wait to come back!

Angela Barton

We stayed here 18.07.25 for a week 1st time in oludeniz we absolutely loved the area , definitely will return 😀 and to this hotel also. Hotel. Absolutely stunning grounds Loved the cats and chickens around Both pools good size cleaned everyday Snack bar amazing Restaurant food was good we found something every day and night , had something different everyday . Only down fal in the restaurant is no air con the fans was blowing warm air , was absolutely melting everything we sat to eat , that's the only thing that was wrong in this hotel . Staff and entertainment team amazing , friendly, we played darts , joined in aqua warwe aerobics, and little boy loved kids disco and dancing at night . Absolutely loved the para gliders coming down over the main pool landing just outside the hotel. Our room was so spacious, was stocked with water and pop daily, cleaned daily , About 100m to the beach ⛱️ 😎 Strip just around the corner Transfer was 50 mins we used private transfer Batman Holidays Private Transfer & Excursions Would definitely return to this hotel

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.

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 :)

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 .

It works on a card system, you pay onto a card and swipe on the machine. It's supposed to pay any tickets that you won onto the card and you can collect a prize if you have enough points. I don't think half the point registered on the card leading to a very disappointed child

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.

Busramiratuncer

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

Irem

My daughter and I used to come here all the time, but the last people you hired seemed to be very close to people. People come to play with their children and relax, but it's annoying when they're always standing over you.

Vukosava Stojanovic

This feels more like a 2-star than a 3-star hotel. The room was small, with old furniture and bathroom, and the overall hygiene was poor (even the pillowcase was stained). The pool area was dirty, and we unfortunately got an ear infection from it. Food was okay, but tables were often sticky, and the dining terrace was too hot with no fans or ventilation. Water and coffee machines frequently didn’t work, and most things seemed worn out. On the positive side, the staff were helpful and kind, and the location is great – just a 5-minute walk to the beach, though you need a dolmuş to reach the center.

Tasha Salsese

If you looking for a budget hotel Myra is perfect. It’s basic and needs modernising but other than that it’s a nice little hotel. Pool is lovely for a dip and swim sun beds need a clean so don’t forget your towels. But comfy. Waiters are friendly and helpful Drinks are basic. I’d of liked a cocktail on the all inclusive but overall for the price. Iv no real complaints. If you looking for a nice chilled quiet cheap holiday. No frills. Myra is perfect

Millie King

The Myra hotel is such an amazing place for us to spend our holiday. The rooms were nice and clean, the food never disappoints and the wonderful caring staff made our stay truly memorable. The staff always went above and beyond for us and we were sad to have to say goodbye. The Myra is central to all of the shops, bars and activities which made everything so much easier. I 1000% would recommend the Myra!

FOLEX D.O.O.

The room looks old,bed also,the mattress is uncomfortable ,toilet is also old.They didnt have everyday hot water in room.Food was ok but ,we had only one day sea food. A break between breakfast and lunch 2-3 h so we skip the breakfast.I dont know why people give this hotel 4 or 5 stars.Obviusly they didnt see anything better

ayça özbek

Great location, helpful employes but the room was really bad. I am not sure the cleaning of the shower curtain and blankents. Also the floor was really dirty and air conditioning was not working.

We had a great time at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. Staff is very nice, the hotel is clean, spacious, and located right on the beach. We booked our room at the Rainbow tower top floor, which had beautiful ocean views. The pool is also very nice. However, I will say couple of things that this hotel can improve on; (1) restaurants- the choice of restaurants are very limited and the quality of food choices are very minimal. I don’t mind paying three times the price for good food (like we did), but variety would be great. (2) same with Bars- there are only two, one is the Tapas bar and the second is by the pool. More options would be great given the size of the hotel. Overall good experience at this hotel.

David Lewis

Paradise!! What a beautiful place to visit! There is sooo much to do! The resort offers plenty of activities for all ages! The restaurants and bars offer a great "local" assortment of dishes and drinks. The room had an amazing ocean view, and was perfect for my morning coffee. The area surrounding the resort had a million different restaurants and shopping for all tastes. I'm already planning a second visit!

janet Bettini

We loved the hotel! It was very accessible to the beach, shops, and dining. We had an awesome view. We happened to be there during the tsunami warning and the hotel was awesome with communicating with us and keeping us safe. Gina did a great job with cleaning our room every day. Anything we asked for she did it. The only one star I would give is for parking. $72 per day id ridiculous to charge your hotel guests. Paying the resort fee and parking fee for 6 days was an extra $700. Be aware if you are renting a car and staying here.

Tabatha Kennedy

Hilton Hawaiian Village – A Mixed Experience The staff at Hilton Hawaiian Village were genuinely kind and welcoming, which made our stay feel warm from the start. The room itself was basic but clean—nothing luxurious, but serviceable. However, the towels were surprisingly rough and abrasive, and felt more like loofahs than linens. Only two were provided. Let’s be honest, most women need at least two just for themselves, so a few extras would go a long way. The location is definitely the highlight. You’re centrally placed in Waikiki, with easy walking access to beaches, shops, and restaurants. That convenience is hard to beat. Now for the less glamorous part: the area around the Tapa Tower is overrun with pigeons. While the birds themselves are hard to control, the mess they leave behind—especially around the bar area—is not. At one point, I stepped away to use the restroom and came back to find pigeons eating our lunch. It was both frustrating and unsanitary, and the outdoor areas could definitely benefit from more frequent cleaning. Overall, the rooms felt average for the price, and while the location and staff were great, a few improvements in amenities and cleanliness would make a big difference. One thing worth noting is the hotel fees, which felt excessive considering what’s actually included. It’s not entirely clear what those charges cover for the price.

Sara Davis

The rooms are clean but are also a bit dated. Nothing more was needed, but for the cost, it felt a bit old. The location is very desirable and within walking distance of everything. Service was limited, but the housekeeping staff was unbelievably helpful and friendly. I do think they could improve signage for the ride share pick-up spot. The selection of restaurants and stores were pretty great. They even have a Dairy Queen

Rashad Nasibli

Hi, had a chance to stay in this hotel for a week. The hotel itself is located in a calm area in Marmaris. Territory - for me it was a bit small comparing to previous hotels I have stayed in but still it was big enough. Rooms - are clean generally but still can be cleaned a bit better ( for instance in our room I dropped my AirPods under the sofa and when I tried to take it my hand got very dusty as it was not cleaned under the sofa). Food - liked that it was very diverse and tasty. Service - in restaurant it was almost good but waiters and waitresses could work a bit faster and better. Entertainment - comparing to previous hotels it was a bit poor, but still animators were great and tried their best to keep people enjoying. Just would recommend making diverse programs for 2 weeks as sometimes guests stays for long time and they would like to see something new. Overall, can give 8 out of 10, thanks Martı Resort for such an amazing 1 week. İn addition, if the hotel will be renovated one day just please consider people with high height, currently the ceilings in most rooms and shower rooms are too low😅

Leon Ingham

Great hotel! We loved our time there. Lots of fun and lots of activities from the entertainment team. The pools are great and very large. Never an issue getting beds even in peak season. Food was also excellent. The rooms were small for a family of 4. All round great value for money.

Alexandru Popescu

The resort is quite well built and the initial designer had a great vision and executed it well, but unfortunately the owners has not kept in with the times. A simple renovation of the property would indeed but the resort back as a must visit destination in the region. The room was mostly clean, but still a lot to do. Some staff very pleasant, but if you're foreign and can't speak Turkish, it won't be easy. Overall the quality-price ratio is good

paul wood

As a disabled traveler we looked long and hard to find a hotel with all the facilities I required. What a find! The Marti Resort is a amazing place to chill out and recharge. The whole experience was amazing. The whole ambience is one of class. Staff are attentive with nothing being too much trouble. Rooms are spacious and very well equipped, our room had amazing sea views with every morning showing stunning sunrises. The bars and internal layout is immaculate. Pols are spacious and have easy disabled access. Live entertainment every evening and a dedicated beech just for hotel guests we're high points. The best thing about the Marti resort is the food, wow just wiw, amazing selection and quality of local dishes all cooked to perfection and stunningly prepared, just a note if you want English food don't come here, the hotel serves amazing local dishes NOT FULL ENGLISH BREAKFASTS AND WARM CARLING!, if you want those go to Blackpool! We had such a amazing time I booked and paib for next year after a couple of days stay. We will be back many times in the future. The best hotel in Turkey I've ever stayed at. The very best in icmeler.... Keap up the good work all at the Marti...

JAMES Street

Rooms were good but lacked AC a couple of days, not sure if it was an issue throughout the hotel. The Spa was lovely and recommended a Turkish bath, along with the massages. Pools and food were great and nothing to complain about. The kids club made our little boy's holiday (Oliver). He loved being there with Bella and Ezra and always looked forward to the disco with them.

Phil Downes

Our first time in turkey and we stayed here, excellent staff and service, the maids were the loveliest I’ve experienced anywhere. Air con in the rooms was excellent. Food was very good and a pretty wide range. Pools and facilities were meticulously clean and serviced. Very family friendly but not overwhelmingly like a kids hotel it was just the right balance. We did 2 excursions there, Jeep safari and the pirate boat trip. Both were fantastic days out and well worth the money. On our last day you have use of the spa showers and changing rooms so you can enjoy the full day and get ready for travel back. Very pleased .

melanie cant

After reading negative comments we worried for put stay but it was amazing service, pools and the food was outstanding,not repetitive, very tasty & plenty of choice day after day. The bars were entertaining & always delicious snacks in reception to nibble on. We felt truly spoilt & definitely felt this was value for money. Our only little negative was sunbed wars, people getting up to grab a bed...but the chap managing the area did do a good job of sorting people out with beds & umbrellas so there was no need for the panic. Overall the perfect holiday for us ,the first time abroad in 7 years did not disappoint us ❤️

Jacqui Cardy

We had 14 days at this very tired hotel. The staff were amazing . Far too many sun beds around the pool. There was no spaces between the beds at all if you complained about the beds the staff just wanted to squeeze more beds in. There was only three lifts in the main building and quite often you would have to wait 10 minutes to get one. They would only give you one key card per room.The beach was full of cigarette ends and was too far to walk too. The desserts all looked very nice but were all tastless.

Paul Dorning

Staff are amazing and have friendly, trip and they'll get you a table to sit on straight away at meal times. Food is very good, not excellent. Rooms very clean and tidy. 15 mins walk the the beach front Pool very busy, sunbed open at 6am most beds gone by 7am. I was a single dad travelling with my sin aged 7 and felt very help with everything the hotel offered.

Ashleigh Taylor

Our first time coming to Turkey and we LOVED IT! Already looking to come back especially to this hotel! From the moment we arrived staff were so friendly and helpful. Hotel room was lovely and cleaned everyday by the cleaners 🥰 we all loved the pool and slides and never had a problem getting a sunbed, food was good always found something we liked. Entertainment was amazing, the best shows we’ve ever seen. Staff were all so friendly and helpful, the cleaners, bar staff, waiters, the shop people, people who we booked trips through. The photographers were great also. Couldn’t fault this hotel or staff in anyway! The trips we done were amazing. We done water sports on the beach, a boat trip on the black pearl boat and the jeep safari and our driver was Richard, what a lovely guy he was! He was so fun and amazing with the kids. He deffo made the trip even more better! Also a special mention to Brogan, Christina and Elisha In kids club! Kids club was so fun, always different activists and the fact they bring the kids out to do the entertainment was so good. The girls were so welcoming and friendly with us and all 4 of our kids. We all made such a special bond with these girls, all 6 of us will never forget you guys and we miss you all so much already! We’d come back in a heartbeat just to see you guys again!

This hotel is appalling. NOT A 5 STAR!!! Upon arrival to the destination there was no parking available (although the hotel specify on site parking) when I had asked the staff I was told to drive to a run down plot of land about a 5 minute walk away. The building/rooms do not appear like the images. The smell was overwhelming. The whole place just felt unclean and run down. Once i had found my own room, i noticed that the decor was severely outdated and even more unclean than the reception area. The bed linen was stained there was a liquid on the bed (not sure if this was a leak or a spill). All the furniture was dirty and looked as if it had been left outside in mud on a rainy day then air dried and placed back into the room. Not to mention the furniture being plastic garden decor. Insanity!! The bathroom was of the poorest standard. It was filthy, it smelt very bad and the toilet itself had been used as there were poo stains. There was what I can only imagine to be a used sanitary towel in the bin of the bedroom. All the cupboards were dusty like the place had been abandoned. I did not even want to breathe in this room, it made me sick to my stomach. This was all seen at first glimpse. I did not stay long enough to take a thorough look around. With every turn came a new horror. I went back to reception immediately and left the facility. I had to find alternative accommodation in the middle of the night as the hotel manager was unable to rectify my concerns. I was not given any kind of refund even though I spent no more than 30 minutes in what I assume to be a used abandoned rotten room reserved for guests when there is no other space available. I paid large sum of money for the week. I was left devastated and quite frightened I did not even think to argue a refund I felt the need to walk away as quickly as possible. This is not a 5 star hotel. It would barely pass as a 3 star. Please note that all the glowing entries for reviews are from Turkish nationals who definitely do not use this hotel. I have spoken to many other hotels and business owners in the area about this and they all informed me that this hotel is a total scam. I am now back in Great Britain, and I have been informed that I will not be getting a refund. How awful. Other than the staff at this hotel the people of Turkey are lovely. What a shame. This needs to be investigated further as it has completely put me off from travelling to Turkey again. I will definitely be filing a complaint with consumer arbitration board and the ministry of culture and tourism. I am a British woman who travels to many destinations across the globe and never have I ever been so disgusted. You have failed me. This hotel will make you sick. It will make your skin crawl and it will ruin your entire holiday. I can go on about how unsettling this place is and how horrified you will be left but I’d rather just say do not book save yourself the distress.

Rob Swinfield

Our Third Visit – Still Amazing! My wife and I recently took a short trip back to the Elegance – our third time here – and what can I say? Just like our previous visits, it was absolutely amazing. The staff are always so polite and helpful, and everything from the pools to the rooms is kept spotlessly clean. The snack bar is always fresh and well-stocked, which is a great touch. The restaurant as a good mix of food. Overall, it’s been another wonderful holiday, and we’re already hoping to be back

Harriet Katube

For a five star hotel, my expectation was high. Our room was in a really but location, the phone line didn't work properly and we couldn't connect to WiFi for 24hrs. The adapters didn't work as well. We had to buy another one from there. The sauna and steam room was smelly. The food wasn't great. Oh be careful when travelling from airport to the hotel. Do not buy your excursion/entertainment tickets, they tend to push you to buy them, they don't take no for an answer and it's charged in pounds. I bought 3 and I only used 1. The massage and hammam baths didn't meet my expectations so I didn't participate. The boat ride was okay. Oh by the way, I stayed here in April 2024, I didn't have time to review. Maybe things has changed.

katie hocking

Me and my partner have just got back from our 10 night stay at Elegance Hotel, and all I can say is wow. The hotel is phenomenal, it’s spotlessly clean, the food is incredible, the atmosphere is a dream and the staff were amazing. I’ve never felt so at home in a hotel. The services they provide is also fantastic, from the spar/beauty treatments, evening entertainment every night and the day time activities, there is a water sport hut right on the beach that’s linked to the hotel, the trip we had was brilliant and you even get cheaper rates for staying in the hotel, the lifeguards working there are so friendly and helpful. The entertainment staff are also extremely friendly and really do make everyone smile. There is a quiet pool with a beautiful waterfall for if you don’t want to hear the music during the day which has a bar, snack bar and kids pool, it was the perfect hotel and holiday. The only slightly negative thing I can say is that the WiFi could be better. But other than that the whole place is perfect and luxurious. I already can’t wait to go back next year! A massive thank you to everyone at Elegance hotel for making our holiday a dream xx

Sade Caines

The staff were great, (loved Omër the piano man!) we got the large room which was gorgeous. Assumed location was in town center but it wasn't. Wasn't too far though. Only downside was no entertainment so spent loads out on an evening & not being able to take food out of the restaurant. Definitely recommend the hotel spa! We loved it that much we went back the next day lol. Overall we all had a great stay!

charlotte evans

This is a fabulous hotel overall. I agree with previous posts about certain families being very rowdy etc, but it doesn't really affect you, you just have to ignore it. Food is gorgeous and the hotel reps are just the best, they go above and beyond to make it a fun atmosphere, especially for the kids! The rooms are basic but all work fine and are spotless which is all you can really ask for at this sort of price range. If you have children, they will not be disappointed and will have a great time. We will definitely be back again!

**🏨 Club Julian Hotel Review: Honest Thoughts – "You Get What You Pay For!" 🌴** If you’re looking for a **budget-friendly holiday** with decent food and a lively atmosphere, **Club Julian Hotel** does the job—but don’t expect luxury. Here’s the real deal: **🍽️ Food – Surprisingly Good & Varied!** The **buffet had plenty of choice**, and the quality was better than expected for the price. Fresh salads, grilled meats, pasta, and even some local dishes kept things interesting. No complaints here—we ate well! **🛏️ Rooms – Clean & Functional** The rooms were **basic but spotless**, and housekeeping did a great job. No frills, but comfy enough for a good night’s sleep after a day in the sun. **☀️ Sunbed Wars – Good Luck!** The biggest downside? **Not enough sunbeds** for the number of guests. If you’re not up at dawn to claim a spot, you’ll be lounging on a towel. The pool area gets **packed and noisy**, so if you want peace, head to the beach early. **🎉 Crowd – A Mixed Bag…** This isn’t a quiet, refined resort—it’s **lively, sometimes rowdy**, and you’ll get a few "rough around the edges" guests. That said, we just **kept to ourselves**, and nobody bothered us. If you’re easygoing, it’s fine, but don’t expect a 5-star clientele. **👍 Final Verdict: Worth It for the Price!** For a **cheap & cheerful** break with good food and clean rooms, Club Julian delivers—just **don’t expect luxury**. If you can handle the crowds and the sunbed scramble, you’ll have a fun, no-frills holiday. **3.5/5 – it does what it says on the tin!**

Hannah Smith

Great wee hotel! Here for a holiday with my partners family and was great! Lovley nightly entertainment for children and adults, plenty of space at the pools with lots of daily activities going on, lots of options at meal times (especially for people who are a bit fussy with food), the rooms were nice and clean with daily cleaning. There's also an onsite supermarket, hairdressers, tattoo shop, and more. All staff were very friendly and happy to help with all questions, always with smiles on their faces. The lovely wakeup calls from the chicken pen across the road from our room was the cherry on the top 😅

Sarah Hayes

Absolutely amazing hotel, central and fab location. The hotel was super clean, the rooms were amazing. The food was outstanding, we couldn't fault any part of the food. Breakfast had an amazing choice, snack bar at lunch time was our favourite as you were spoilt for choice and evening meal was amazing. The pools were fab, busy pools but clean. Entertainment was fab too, Jay and his team were extremely friendly and helpful. The only down fall from us was the showers in the communal area once your leaving , they were disgusting- so advice is to pay extra to keep room on. But overall amazing, definitely recommend from us.

Ryan Brady

Stayed at the Julian club hotel for 10 nights, 5 adults and 4 children the hotel was brilliant the staff were very friendly and helpful. The all inclusive food was amazing a very good choice for everyone the snack bar was best I’ve had! and the cakes amazing plus a great choice of drinks. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would be certainly returning in the future 10/10 fantastic family holiday.

Maria Koukou

We just came back from our one week stay at the Grand Yazici Club thermal turban. I must say it was an amazing experience. The hotel was wonderful with lots of things to do. It has a "village" layout which offers a relaxing atmosphere and despite being full of guests you could find a place to relax or a place to party if you need to. The kids club was really nice and all the ladies were sweet and caring. The beach was clean and the water ideal for adults and kids The food was of excellent quality. There were plenty of choices all of them yummy. The staff at the main restaurant was so polite and helpful, if I could give them more than a five star review I would. (Merve and the other ladies that side of the restaurant) Overall cleanliness was 100%, rooms and facilities. Just maybe a couple of suggestions, perhaps a few more water toys at the kids pool and also the room doors at block B are really banging when they close which can be a bit annoying when you are trying to sleep.

Wing Yan

First time here and we are leaving today! Going to miss this place, great restaurants, great beach!! Plenty of night time entertainment. The garden bungalow was kept immaculate throughout our stay. The maids, bar, restaurant, reception maintenance staffs were all exceptionally helpful and friendly ( too many of them to name) Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone! We will definitely come back soon. Thank you and much appreciate for all your hospitality you’ve given to me and the family. ☀️😎

Jonathan Swift

Great place for a family vacation. Lots of options around things to do during the day. Several pools and excellent beach/sea front areas that are patrolled and very safe. The food is good, nothing overly special but the main restaurant has a good selection and everyone, even fussy kids, will find something they like. The baklava is very good and well worth a try. The only downside is the rooms. We stayed in the chalet style units, these are on top of a big hill (especially big after a day at the pool). The rooms are dated and the bathrooms are poor with really terrible hot water pressure. My recommendation, stayed at the main hotels - nice rooms, good water pressure and no hill.

Maral Sabri

The service isn’t great actually. Waiters cant take care of everyone equally. We asked 3 times to get a drink. Probably need more waiters or someone that leads them? Not sure ! Aha another bigger problem people put towels and they never come! Why would theu even do this? There should be a rule if no ones there place can be taken! That was absolutely annoying. Location was good though

Ian Allison

Just returned from a family holiday to the Grand Yazici and we had a wonderful time. The location of the hotel set in the pine trees overlooking a beautiful bay is just perfect. My family loved the large pool and even though I'm not usually a fan of the beach I loved it here because the hotel has it's own wooden piers/jetty's to relax on with steps down to the sea but still within service of the roller skating waiters! The food in the main hall was delicious and family varied, this is a big hotel so the restaurant area is on a massive scale and can be quite busy and bustling. There are several different a la carte restaurants on site to use a couple of times during your stay, we chose the Turkish option and really enjoyed it. Big thanks to the entertainment team, they work very hard and are always good for a laugh particularly the daily poolside bar darts competition. The evening entertainment is excellent in a purpose built tiered amphitheater. Acts such as dancers and acrobats every night. The access to clean dry towels by a card token system works very well. The bar staff were always polite and friendly and one thing we loved is that there is a proper coffee shop on site so you don't just have to have machine coffee. I only have the most minor criticism. For the dinner service access to clean cutlery seems to be the limiting factor. The waiting staff are happy to clear tables etc but quite often we were waiting on cutlery and you can't seem to get your own anywhere. The bedroom was clean but nothing particularly fancy and we struggled a bit for clothes storage space (we are a family of four and our room had a double bed and two singles in a separate area. Two wardrobes but no drawers for clothes).

Miles Purnell

This resort is located in a beautiful bay with lovely waters for the sea and pools. The food is incredible and there’s no shortage of it! There’s 3 very good swimming pools that I’d recommend to anyone. Staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, they will get you whatever food or drink you want if you ask. Good drinks on offer. I’d recommend the lobby bar as they serve excellent cocktails. Rooms are comfortable and well air conditioned.

Geo Dalton

My family and I have spent the past 10 days here. It’s been the perfect holiday. The staff are super helpful and the entertainment team have been amazing with our son. The hotel location is brilliant, short walk from the main town. The views from the hotel are beautiful… a very beautiful back drop for a proposal - which I was lucky enough to receive. The only downside was the slightly dated but for how much time we spent in the rooms it did not change our holiday experience.

Sema Yassibas

We had a lovely stay at Turunç Resort Hotel. The rooms were spacious and airy, which made our stay very comfortable. The staff were all extremely friendly, attentive, and had a genuinely positive attitude throughout our visit. There were plenty of fun and engaging activities for kids, which was a big plus for us. The aqua park wasn’t too big or too small — just the right size for families to enjoy without feeling overwhelmed. The beach was absolutely beautiful. The sea was calm and crystal clear, almost like a protected lagoon — perfect for swimming and relaxing. We usually didn’t go to the main restaurant for lunch, but the poolside snack bar offered a good variety of tasty options that kept everyone satisfied. I also had a mixed massage at the spa and was genuinely impressed by the professionalism of the service. It was one of the best massages I’ve had in a hotel setting. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend it to families looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.

William Reeves

Beautiful resort, couldn’t ever get bored. Restaurants are delicious, bars are well stocked and open until late and the facilities are all well maintained. Rooms have all the amenities you could ever need, and are cleaned thoroughly every day. Most importantly, all the staff were friendly and helpful. The aqua park is also particularly excellent.

Laura Keast

Had a fantastic time. This hotel is in one of the most beautiful areas I've ever seen, the views are gorgeous. The staff are great, very friendly and can't fault the service, and the rooms and grounds are always spotless. The entertainment team are great and are also very friendly. We went to the spa and would definitely recommend - great experience and very reasonable.

Ольга Вонсович

Resting in this hotel left very pleasant impressions, I liked everything, the room, the kitchen, the beach, the only minus, the restaurant is too small for such a large number of vacationers, there are not enough seats, and compared to other hotels, how do you leave early in the morning, the hotel does not even provide a light breakfast🥺, I liked everything else, the staff is polite, the rooms are cleaned every day, have been in the hotel since 07/23/23.

Perfect hotel for a holiday, everything was perfect

We have just spent a week at Elite world hotel in Icmeler. Wish we were back there now.! As adults only it was an volume pleasure to be by the pool. The hotel is very clean and tidy. The staff are extremely helpful and the food is good. Location is ideal with the private beach, shops and restaurants all only yards away. The only negatives I can find are the rooms a little small and the pool bar needs a coffee machine. Definitely would go again.

Jack Elson

Great hotel in a good location. Amazing food at the all inclusive, not the biggest selection but a great variety and everything we ate was delicious. Pool is a good size, always sun loungers available whenever we went, no matter the time of day. Had a bit of an issue with our room when we first arrived being opposite the shake bar, which was very loud, but Beyza from guest relations was absolutely incredible and had us moved to a much quieter room within an hour. She really is an asset to the hotel and was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

Gillian Unsted

I stayed from the 1st September to the 8th of September. The hotel is lovely clean and there is loads of choice for breakfast lunch and dinner. The all-inclusive of drinks has plenty if choice. All the staff are great they cannot do enough for you. I was a solo traveller and they looked after me

Ollie Young

We had such a lovely stay at Elite World Marmaris and would happily come back again! The location is perfect – just a short walk from the beach – and the whole place has a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The staff were amazing throughout our stay. Super friendly, really helpful, and couldn’t do enough for us. The food was great too – tasty and different every evening, which we really appreciated. We treated ourselves to a couple of Turkish massages at the spa and spent time in the sauna and steam room – all really clean and relaxing. The steam room was very hot, but in a good way! Our first room was a bit noisy at night due to some nearby bars, but when we mentioned it to reception they moved us to a quieter room with no fuss at all, which made a big difference. Probably wouldn’t bother younger guests, but it’s good to know the team are happy to help if needed. Overall, we had a fantastic time. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for a well-priced, comfortable holiday with great service. We’ll definitely be coming back. P.S. We also did a brilliant boat trip through Antonio, who has a little kiosk down by the beach near the hotel. Really nice guy and the trip was amazing – definitely recommend checking him out!

Had an amazing stay! Super clean hotel and very friendly staff. But let me tell you – the food? Next level. Huge thanks to Chef Çetin Deniz – every meal felt like a fine dining experience. Can’t wait to come back just for the food alone.

Jamie Jamieson

Absolutely loved our time here. Room comfortable and clean food plenty of choice. Location was great nice clean beach with plenty of water sports activities available just a little further up the beach. All staff and management could not do enough for you and all worked very hard to make our stay very pleasurable. Would definitely come back again. Many thanks for a great holiday Jamie and Sharon room 317

The wife and I have just returned from our holiday to Turkey and stayed in the Faros. Staff are attentive friendly and nothing is a problem. The chefs give you plenty of choice of good quality food. The entertainment is what you expect on the circuit but most enjoyable was the bingo caller 5 and 4 fivety to four…. The rooms are basic and could do with a spruce up during closed season but in general a good hotel Drinks are by the eye measure so need to be careful if your not a big drinker views from the balcony were stunning. You do get hassled from the vendors but it’s all part of Turkey. Would we go to the hotel again ??? Yes. Not for everyone but it done what it needed to do for our holiday.

We booked a sea view room for a week end of June as a couple, all inclusive. Overall I'd rate the experience 4/5 stars. The staff around the hotel were friendly and attentive, the waiters and waitresses were very good. Unfortunately the Reception staff let them down as they were not very welcoming or friendly. I never seen any of them smile once. The animations team were very friendly and encouraged everyone to take part in activities. The pool was disappointing, it is small and the same depth the whole way round, for me 5'6ft I could not touch the floor in the pool. The sea was very nice, I would recommend sea shoes as it is rocky. The views are stunning from the hotel, I have put some photographs. The food was good quality and tasty, although after a week it was very repetitive. There is a good drinks selection with the all inclusive package. The hotel could do with some more lifts as you will often wait ages for an available lift. The room was large and mostly clean. We were given fresh towels everyday which was great. The mattress is very, very hard and uncomfortable and you only get 1 pillow. The balcony is just the right size to sit on, and the view from the sea view rooms is stunning. The hotel is in a good location, in walking distance to a lot of shops and right on the sea front. The air conditioning is very good. The chairs at the beach bar were very uncomfortable. Whilst we wanted to stay and watch the entertainment, we mostly found ourselves leaving early as the chairs were not comfortable. We saw other people bringing cushions for the chairs as they were so uncomfortable.

Day 4 of 5. I’ve had the most wonderful solo holiday at the Faros Premium Beach Hotel. As a solo traveller, I was made to feel very welcome by all the staff- especially the restaurant staff. The service in there was the best in the world! Nothing was too much to ask and the warm welcome from Antonio and the chef made each day feel special! I never felt alone. Thank you for making my holiday! I really enjoyed the food. There were lots of options but I especially enjoyed the chicken dishes. The spa treatments were exceptional for the price and the gorgeous views and pool facilities were excellent. All in all, this was a great trip. Thank you so much. I hope the staff in the restaurant realise how much they are appreciated! Please let them know! Emma

Me and my wife stayed at this hotel for a week a few days ago. The staff were very friendly and we had no problems with them. Some of them even had the patience to listen to my bad Turkish to them and speak it back to me, which was nice. The restaurant and bars were efficient and service was quick overall. At the food times the staff often checked and brought over drinks to you while you ate, which is very good. The food was good and varied. If you like Turkish food like I do, e.g kebabs and grilled meats you will enjoy the food a lot. They have a patisserie which you can get ice-cream and pastries from throughout the day and was unlimited. The animation/good vibes team were walking around the hotel and beach area most times of the day, trying to encourage people to take part in the entertainment in the evenings. They were friendly to talk too and had a few jokes as well. The only issues I see witnessed were aesthetic and small issues. There were only two lifts, which had to be shared by the cleaning team in the mornings. Sometimes it took a few minutes to be able to make it to the ground floor if you did not take the stairs. The rooms felt slightly dated and the lights in our bathroom did not work fully and the air conditioning unit was not in an ideal place, but it still worked all day and it kept the room cool anyway. There were two pools, one was 45cm deep while the other was 1.5 meters deep. The pool area was fine and it had a pool bar with seating, sun beds and also had shaded areas with comfy outdoor sofa type cushions. The beach area had plenty of sunbeds to use when we went and it was never full. There is a section of the sea you can swim in freely. It got deep quite quickly and was good for keeping you cool in the hot temperatures. Overall we had a very good experience here and the only thing I say would be needed was minor quality of life updates for the hotel and maybe a service lift for the cleaners and workers so they do not have to use the main lifts in the mornings. I would come back here and I do recommend this hotel if you are considering coming here.

Chris Weir

First time in Turkey, loved it. Nice hotel, it's an adults-only hotel I think that's why the pool doesn't have a shallow end. Lovely friendly very helpful staff, nice facilities nice food, lots of bars, restaurants and shops to buy cheap clothes but haggle with them you get a good deal in the end. Overall a very nice hotel

Steve Flybework

Avoid at All Costs. A Health Hazard Masquerading as a Hotel This was, without exaggeration, one of the most appalling hotel experiences I have ever endured. The promotional photos are utterly misleading. Yes, the pool and rooms look nice, but that illusion is shattered the moment you arrive. There is no welcome, no guidance, no information—just a dismissive wave toward your room and the expectation you'll figure everything out yourself. The food is not just bad; it is potentially dangerous. We are talking borderline salmonella risk. Flies swarmed over uncovered fruit and cakes, which staff made zero effort to protect or remove. It is a buffet of bacterial roulette. Sanitation is nonexistent. We walked into our bathroom to find excrement left in the toilet for hours, accompanied by a stench that could knock you backwards. This was not a one-off incident—it spoke volumes about the management’s complete neglect of basic hygiene. While the bar staff were polite, the drinks were shocking. The local gin was so watered down it was undrinkable, and even a single glass left me nauseous. It was clear corners were being cut at the expense of guests' health. Health and safety is a joke here. There were literal holes in the decking, perfect for breaking an ankle, and slippery pools of water at the bottom of ramps turned walkways into hazardous traps. Combined with the bathroom filth, the entire facility felt like a lawsuit waiting to happen. We raised these concerns with a very kind and understanding customer liaison representative, but the real issue lies with management. There is no accountability, no urgency, and absolutely no intention of resolving guest complaints. Instead, we were offered fruit as some kind of pathetic consolation, which felt like a fitting metaphor for the rotten state of this hotel. Save yourself the money and the risk. Stay elsewhere.

-Pet friendly hotel, they respect the strays and allow pets in the room -Kind and respectful staff but they work so hard and long hours, hotel might be understaffed. -Location is perfect next to the sea with private beach -Food is delicious especially the Baklava is really in a next level. -Really nice views. -Peaceful atmosphere with island views. -Comfy beds and pillows But: -There is no hot water after 17.00 (we stayed 7 nights) which is absurd for a 4 star hotel in 2025 -The glasses in the bar are always dirty. You can visibly see the previously drunk substance which is disgusting. -There is not enough beach towels, we had to use the same towels we got for a week because whenever we asked for a renewal it was not available especially after noon. -Alcohol selection is really limited. They don’t even provide tequila. (You can buy one if you like but it’s not free for the “all inclusive”) -The live music at nights are at best mediocre.(except Tuesday and friday nights) -The lights at the live stage are blinding, we had to ask for them to be closed every night. It’s not even possible to look at the stage. -The towels provided in the rooms are usually stained. -There is no auto parking available. -No air conditioning in the gym. -The shower head in the room was broken and half of the water was pouring to the wall (since it’s freezing cold water it’s not even important though) P.s. They fixed most of the problems after talking with the customer relations.

Zuzana Uhrovicova

Great location, great staff. The room view was amazing. Lots of greenery, flowers, fresh air. We never had a problem finding free sunbeds with an umbrella, whether by the pool or on the beach. Many activities around - boat trips, water sports, trips to different areas like Pamukkale, Saklikent Canyon, Turte beach... The rooms are a bit dated.

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

Katie Jones

I don’t usually write reviews, but the this hotel deserves one! The place itself is beautiful, with clean rooms, a variety of pools, and a nice location close to the centre of Marmaris. Still, what sets this hotel apart is the entertainment team. From morning till night, there was always something fun happening. Potter and his team made sure no one was left out, whether it was a poolside game, a fitness class, or a comedy sketch in the evening. The laughs we shared every night with Potter’s energy and quick humor were unforgettable. They made our holiday feel truly unique.

Susan Dunbar

Highly recommend this hotel we have been 6 times over the years and away to book for next year. The hotel photographer is amazing and captured so many brilliant memories and family photos for us over the years at a great price. Food is brilliant and my 2 fussy kids always find something to eat. All the staff are brilliant and nothing is a problem. Can't wait to go back here again

Paul Hickinbottom

Visited this hotel for third year running and it didn’t disappoint. We had another fantastic family holiday. The staff are amazing especially the entertainment team! If you want to go to the beach or main shopping area it’s less than a fiver in a taxi if you don’t fancy the walk. Although there is a decent selection of shops within easy walking distance. We will be back again!

Cha De Leon

We stayed here for 4 nights, 5 days the hotel's location is about 10 minutes bus away from marmaris town, it is easy to to commute there is a bus stop down the hill, and a few restaurants and souvenir shops around the hotel. Check-in was smooth and staff are friendly and helpful. We had the family room, it was spacious lots of storage for your luggge and clothes, there is a mini fridge and a safe you can hire for a fee. The downside of the room is the decore, it look tired but overall the room is okay. We booked for all inclusive meal, Breakfast was okay there are lots of options to choose from they even have a outside cook to order section where they serve pancakes, omelettes and fried eggs. Lunch and dinner was the same there are lots of option but needs improvement on the quality of the food. Pool area a big enough it does not get crowded (we travel May half term). The highlight of our stay is the SPA! I highly recommend trying the classic hammam spa. Overall we had a great stay.

Hudson's Choice

This was our first visit to Turkey for a family holiday (we usually travel abroad in August) and while we loved exploring the country itself, unfortunately this hotel really let us down. Positives: • Staff were friendly and tried their best, especially keeping the bar and pool areas tidy. • Our kids enjoyed the evening entertainment and the pool with slides. • Location was convenient – just a short walk to shops and restaurants, and very easy to get a bus to the Marina. • Our Jet2 rep, Suat, was fantastic – caring, helpful, and a real credit to Jet2. • The Dalyan Express excursion was brilliant (highly recommend!) and the Jeep Safari was another highlight. • Air conditioning worked well. • Sitting under the big umbrella by the bar, watching the kids swim, was a nice spot. Negatives: • The hotel was extremely overcrowded – the busiest all-inclusive we’ve ever been to. Sunbeds were impossible to get after 8:30, and they were crammed in like sardines. • The pool was full to capacity daily – great for the kids, but unbearable for us as adults. • The atmosphere wasn’t family-friendly. Many guests were rowdy and drinking heavily at night, with arguments breaking out, shouting matches that nearly became fights, and glass smashed around the entertainment area. Even when we got a good spot, it was hard to enjoy the shows with people talking loudly or causing disruption. • The pool environment was the same – we witnessed multiple arguments, and some of the children were very badly behaved. Our kids had their floats taken or kicked away, and on several occasions we had to stand by them like bodyguards to stop other children from pushing them into the pool. Slides were often used unsafely when not manned, and the lack of control created a stressful atmosphere. Definitely not what you want on a family holiday. • Rooms were very small, and our balcony (next to a stairwell) was tiny. The air con unit blew hot air while we sat out, and worse, the maids often smoked outside the stairwell, leaving our clothes smelling of smoke. • Housekeeping was poor. Rooms were only “tidied,” not cleaned properly. Floors were never mopped, and towels were only changed if we asked. • A pest controller sprayed chemicals one afternoon while my husband was in the room – it went on our belongings, including a towel later folded back for us to use. Very off-putting. • Food was more miss than hit. Queues were long, guest hygiene was poor (people dropping tongs, touching food), and sadly, I had diarrhoea for most of the holiday. By the second week, the whole family did too. This really affected our enjoyment, and I couldn’t even drink alcohol as my stomach was too unsettled. • Entertainment, while decent in quality, was far too late and overcrowded. We had to rush down around 6pm to secure a table, even though dinner was 7:30 and shows didn’t start until after 10pm – far too late for families with young children. • The spa staff were pushy, approaching us daily at the pool to book treatments, which became annoying. Summary: We did our best to make the most of our time, but this hotel was stressful, overcrowded, rowdy, and lacked the hygiene standards we’d expect. At times we didn’t even feel relaxed letting our children play safely. The saving graces of our trip were the excursions, the evenings in the Marina, and even finding a smaller, quieter hotel nearby where we paid extra to use their peaceful pool. Turkey itself is wonderful and we will definitely return to the country – but this hotel was the worst all-inclusive we’ve stayed at, and for us it’s a firm 1★. Definitely not recommended.

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.

Siobhan POWERS

Disappointing for families – more suited to couples who don’t mind basic facilities and smoking. I chose Kaan Apartments for a budget-friendly holiday, but unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectations as a mum travelling with children. The hotel is very basic and feels more suited to couples, especially those who enjoy football, as there’s no evening entertainment unless a match is on. The overall atmosphere revolved mostly around the barmen and the receptionist. The room itself was clean, which I appreciated, but the cleaners would walk in without knocking—even after I complained, it continued. The breakfast (included with bed and breakfast) was very limited: just beans on toast, cornflakes, or egg on toast. Anything else had to be paid for, and only one drink was allowed. There was no fresh fruit or healthy options available at all. The pool was clean but closed strictly at 6 p.m. What I found particularly unpleasant was that the barmen smoked cigarettes right next to me while I was eating—not something I’d expect at a family-friendly hotel. Also worth noting: air conditioning isn’t included and costs an extra £50. Overall, while it was affordable, I wouldn’t return or recommend it for families with children.

Limara B

rooms are very basic. Cleaners come everyday and are nice. service is nice enough, they don't hassle you to stay at hotel and spend your money there. location is quite crap, not too far from the beach but found it had to get taxis to the good bars and areas. plus if you had a room at the front, you'd have to wait till 2 or 3am to sleep since it was so noisy.

Simon Johnson

On arrival I was given an attic studio when I had booked and paid for a one bedroom apartment. The man argued and raised his voice telling me I was late. I had told the hotel I was going to be there a few days late a few weeks before my room had been paid in advance. He then told me in the morning I could have the correct room as fully booked. (First LIE) on the morning the man on reception told me I cannot have a one bedroom apartment as I was a single person even tho I had paid for 2 people for an apartment. After him arguing he said I can have it but it should not happen even tho I had paid for 2 people. Staff are rude and very argumentative. A few days in the bar staff ran after my family and asked them to pay the bill. They told them they had not ordered food and he said you did. She had not (second LIE) the following day they then accused my other family saying that the barman remembers them ordering food (third LIE) they constantly lied about giving my aunt a ground floor room and nastily told her after 4 times. Rooms are first come first even tho she had requested in in person 2 weeks prior The hotel is VERY basic but if I’m honest it is ok. Apart from the shower being all over the place with water pressure. The staff are the WORST part of this place they are LIARS and 2 faced. Honestly spend the extra money and stay somewhere else as this is the biggest regret I have ever had staying here.

Tia Warwick-compton

Arrived the staff were rude demanding passports were then given an attic room due to being over booked my partner banged his head so many times it’s dangerous. The toilet didn’t work for first day. And our cleaner had taken money and perfume out of our bags. Was handed the money back and told she thought it was a tip (from out my suitcase!! We were called liars several times and when we left everyone around pool side went to check there belongings and also had things stolen. Never go back

Davie Martin

To be honest I've no idea what they look like ,my other half threw a wobbler on the morning we were ✈️ ☀️ due to visit ( 11nights ) . So I travelled light myself to Dalaman 🇹🇷 arriving at 03:10 .after calling driver at Kann apt ,I waited till "Sun Express "office opened and traded 2 returns to Glasgow for the 1st flight out of Dalaman to Instanbul 🇹🇷 .which computer 💻 said yes to woo ✅ . From there I booked a flight to Hànoi Vietnam 🇻🇳 🪷 with there national airline 9hr on a 787-800 , and my own holiday ☀️ / jolly began . Not very helpful I know ,but "it is what you make it" .Regards ✌️ & 💚

Kayahan Kaya

Best holiday, great location, good service, best entertainment and very clean overall. Me and my family just returned from the hotel, we were extremely satisfied and had the best time. I have been to more luxurious hotels in Turkey however, this hotel was by far cleaner, the staff were family friendly. The variety of food can be repetitive and didn’t not enjoy most of the desserts as they were too sweet and lack flavours.

Jo F

Just returned from a week's inclusive plus holiday there and can't rate this hotel high enough. The food range and quality is amazing and the staff are second to none. So friendly funny and welcoming. Treating them as you'd like to be treated is the key, not something all visiting guests remember! This was our first trip to Turkey and if we return, we will definitely come back to this beautiful hotel. Very highly recommended.

Corrine Lang

Honest review after 10 day family holiday It was absolutely roasting ☀️☀️☀️🤣 All staff were amazing specially Cengiz (or pronounce like jengo picture attached) Adem and Muhammad from the stone bar (bar at main pool) very helpful looked after us well. They were absolutely amazing. We were in a bungalow double, single and a z-bed (which collapsed as soon as my son sat on it) 🤣. The room was a good size, clean (ish) dusty in some areas eg tops of headboard. During our stay the rooms were cleaned on basic, coffee/tea and water was replaced once had to ask. Bathroom was very clean on arrival but noticed the sink and toilet weren't cleaned daily a medium length black hair appeared on the sink vanity (none of us have that colour or length of hair) i deliberately left it there to see how long it would take to be cleaned away it didn't so I washed the bathroom myself. Flush broke on the toilet and didn't have hot water for a night. Which wasn't really a big deal I was happy to have a cold shower. The mess from the maintenance man fixing it wasn't cleaned. Again. Cleaned myself Air con in the room was absolutely rubbish was cool when you first entre the room but after 10 minutes it was very warm and sweaty. Room was constantly at 21° I asked for it to be fixed but was still the same. Spoke to a few other guests and they said the same. I won't even moan about the sunbed situation at the end of the day it is the hight of their season so to be expected. But I do agree with some of the reviews there's no need to reserve a bed for your children they can share. Food it samish got sick of it near the end. One of my sons are very fussy so he ate chips 8 out of 10 days. Im not blaming the restaurant my son is just a fussy wee bugger. Although I did try their nuggets and they weren't very nice actually worse than turkey dinosaurs (and that he would eat) Evening entertainment was very good, one night there was a famous singer (sorry forgot her name) yes she was probably very good but alot of the guests and myself felt it was more for the Turkish as we heard tickets were sold for that evening. That night was not really catered for uk etc. Taxi to mamaris will cost you roughly £10 and to ichmeler £8 hotel will book one for you but taxis are normally up at the gate. Less than 10 minutes to both areas. Could walk along beach front to both areas. I know this review sounds really stuck up but coming from a hospitality background myself believe me I understand how hard it is and is probably harder for them due to amount of guests and heat that the staff work in. I'd personally give the hotel itself a 7 out of 10 as it definitely needs updating and room cleaning needs a bit more attention. But staff would get a 10 very friendly and working in that heat I take my hat off to them. *edit* also toilet roll wasn't replaced daily ran very low to the point it would have been a square each had to ask for rolls on a few occasions. Roughly 2 hour transfer from dalaman airport we booked a private transfer. Was nice to have our own space but didn't arrive much earlier than the coach half hour at most

Chris Cox

Our first family holiday and the hotel was all we expected and more. Nice selection of pools, food on offer and drinks around the area. Location was just right between the 2 areas of icmeler and Marmaris. The trees really were great for shade in the midday sun. Beach is accessible easily and relaxing. The staff were very attentive and helpful in all areas. Room was a bungalow and decent size. The entertainment was present if chose to do it as with kids club when used. Recommend the family friendly boat tour for those with small kids provided by Tui rep on site. When we arrived we had to remind reception to add an extra bed but it was very late so we were happy to bunk with young kids first night. The kids 6 and 8yrs loved it and found lots of friends. The grounds are safe and once they found way around were able to go and get drinks and ice cream as needed and water always available. They very much want to go back and so do my wife and I.

J Stevens

We took our two kids and had a fantastic time. The location is perfect. The food is great - especially the desserts. The best part was the kids disco and performances every night. That's on top of the amazing pools and seaside access. Would stay again.

Derin Merey

Our stay at Palmea Hotel was absolutely wonderful! The rooms were spotless, the food was delicious with plenty of options, and the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our visit. The hotel has a warm and friendly atmosphere that makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Perfect location, excellent facilities, and great service – everything you could ask for in a holiday! I can’t wait to come back and highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

lizzie

The hotel was fine—a basic hotel that served its purpose. While it could have been a little cleaner, the room itself was great, and there were no issues there. The food wasn’t to our taste, so we ate out most nights; next time, we will skip the all-inclusive option. All of the staff were great, and the pool was lovely, which made our stay more pleasant despite the other issues. Also, I think my mum fell in love with the manager, so she will definitely be coming here again!

Kaan DDD

I had an amazing stay at Palmea Hotel! Everything was simply perfect – from the cleanliness of the rooms to the quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff. The atmosphere is relaxing, and the location is ideal for exploring Marmaris. The team always goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. I truly enjoyed every moment here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable holiday. I will definitely come back!

Fatma Altindal

The hotel looks nice from the outside, but our room had severe mould on the walls near the beds. The smell was so strong it irritated our throats, and we had to request a room change. Unfortunately, management was dismissive of our complaint and refused to look at the photos we had taken, relocating us instead to a ground-floor corner room facing the trees. The food is very basic, and there are not enough staff to handle the number of guests during buffet service, which leads to long waits. Overall, this hotel may be suitable for a short stay, but we would not recommend it for longer visits.

Rufaidah Bibi

I have just come back after staying at the Palmea Hotel, and I was deeply disappointed with the level of service and uncleanliness. The staff seemed unwilling to assist guests unless they are Russian or white , and there was a noticeable lack of attention to our needs. Our assigned cleaner did not properly clean our room throughout our stay. As the room wasn't cleaned, it quickly became unhygienic, and without the necessary cleaning supplies, we struggled to maintain a reasonable standard of cleanliness. The overall state of the hotel was unacceptable, with dirt and grime visible in many areas. Furthermore, the management was consistently rude and unhelpful. They provided false information and made up excuses regarding the cleaning service, which was frustrating and disrespectful. To make matters worse, we experienced theft during our stay. Several expensive items, including pharmacy products intended as gifts, went missing after the cleaner entered our room to dispose of rubbish. This breach of trust was deeply upsetting. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Vanessa M

We had a great time there. Service was great, helpful gents. Room was very basic, no thrills, but clean. Bathroom clean as well. Food could be changed more often but it was fresh. Very close to the beach, shops around, positive vibes. Pool was very clean. Would stay again.

Gary

We booked this the night before, spur of the moment. Hotel was in a fantastic location, bars, shops, beach, main street all within 5 minutes walk. Rooms were very basic, just happy they had good AC as it was 40C. Food was basic, all inclusive, beer was efes, there was vodka, gin... too. Cheap impulsive purchase but was good to spend 4 nights away. I did mean to photo the room, just think basic.

Love Love

The best location in town, you can breathe here. Food is excellent, if you are normal.. there is always something you would like, stuff is great and you get rooms cleaned every day!! The only problem is club across the street, it gets really noisy at night

Marc Hoskin

The only good part about this hotel is the location The rooms are basic aircon not great either the belcony is so small with plastic chairs Beds are hard and not comfortable The food is the worst iv ever had honestly like broccoli for breakfast and warm cornflakes allready made up I mean 🤢.no choice of drinks 3 alcoholic drinks and same soft drinks it’s hard to even call it a bar and there very small watered down the bar closes at 10 no snack bar throu the day they come out at 4oclock with 3 plates of cookies The hotel is a joke and I don’t know how it’s still going tbh with you Most of the staff a friendly but fear there boss /jobs Never again!!!!!!!!!

Ryan Hoskin

Very poor hotel, food is terrible, bar and variety of drinks is poor, no snacks or ice creams, staff very miserable and rooms are as basic as they come. Would definitely not come to this hotel ever again

حسن باسم عبد الخالق احمد

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.

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!

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.

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.

Overall it was nice , after reading the negative reviews we were expecting the worst but the food was ok with a good selection, staff know little English but google translate sorted that , main kitchen staff were nice , go early to get the sun beds . entertainment was ok, rooms were basic but views were amazing. 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

Nothing negative really, just not as positive as it would have been in the past. I’ve stayed at the Aqua for the last three years in early July and will probably be back in 2026. The first year we stayed my wife took photos of the buffet in the main restaurant it was very impressive, this is where you begin to see the cutbacks. I appreciate that all inclusive hotels have to cater for all nationalities, but this year I did get a little fed up with the same food and found it difficult to make a decent evening meal,I’m Welsh by the way.The result of this was we went out for food and Turkey isn’t cheap to eat out anymore! Another example would be the mini bar in the room it had less in it than previous years. I’m not a big drinker but on the few occasions when I did fancy a drink I would have to ask the waiter to make them a little stronger and put a more alcohol in. There nothing major, but the cutbacks are becoming more and more apparent, particularly in the restaurant and people who have been there previously have noticed. I don’t want to seem negative and as I said earlier I’ll probably be going back in 2026. The hotel is very nice and in a perfect location, it is also spotlessly clean.The waiters and waitresses are extremely well trained and managed, they are very friendly and attentive towards the guests. Every member of staff goes out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. I wish them every success for the future. I enjoy my stay at the Aqua, but there is a fine balancing act between cutbacks and maintaining the excellent standards they are known for. I hope to see you again in July 2026.

What a sensational, unforgettable holiday! The hotel is absolutely beautiful and the staff are absolutely fantastic!! The entertainment staff were on top form every night! The waiters (breakfast, lunch and dinner including the staff outside at the bars and pool staff) were phenomenal! We were treated like VIPs and nothing was ever too much trouble. The spa was amazing, my husband and I had aromatherapy massages. The ladies were extremely professional. The facilities were always neat, clean and tidy! The pool was an amazing place to soak up the Turkish sun. My only reason we would go back to Turkey would be to stay in your hotel again. We have mentioned it to our friends and family members. We look forward to coming back again in the very near future. 10/10 in my book! From The Valentine’s xxx

This is my first time visiting Turkey and I am extremely happy with my stay so far at Hotel Aqua. The room I am staying in is nice, with an amazing balcony view. The staff are all so helpful and very attentive. The resort is constantly kept super clean. The staff are always checking up on us to see if we would like any drinks. The receptionists were very helpful with the check-in process. Shoutout to Can the receptionist for his hard work and amazing hospitality. I would definitely stay here again.

Best Hotel I've been to in Turkey. 1 the room is very good, Also beds are comfortable. 2 View is amazing I got pool view which I wanted. 3 Pool is amazing and the inside pool with the bubbles that come out look very cool. 4 Bar staff are very nice and polite, I like getting a sprite or a mocktail (cocktail) the mocktails are made very well.
