***WOULD AVOID***
Green Nature Resort in Marmaris offers some positives, but overall, it falls short of the experience expected from a 4-star hotel. Our room (Room 4000) was spacious, but noise was a constant issue, with guests running and shouting late into the night, making it hard to rest. When I inquired about packed lunches, the response was condescending, as if I had made an unreasonable request.
The dining experience was also frustrating. Staff would clear food and shut off drinks machines right as mealtime ended, even if guests were still serving themselves. Lights were turned off, and tables were cleared around us, making us feel rushed and unwelcome. A little flexibility would make a big difference.
Bar service was inconsistent. While most staff were okay, one young bartender was rude and careless in preparing drinks. Thankfully, a senior waiter provided attentive service, which was a refreshing contrast.
Security was another concern. We found the safe open and our room door left ajar, and only upon returning home did I realize that two of my designer t-shirts were missing. When I rang the hotel, I was told they couldn’t do anything because I had already left and would need to report it to the police if I was still there. The representative implied that it was my responsibility to check my luggage before departure, which felt dismissive and unprofessional.
The on-site shop experience was disappointing as well. My young daughters (2 and 6) were testing some toys, and the shop owner began shouting at them for making noise—even though we were planning to buy the toys. A friendlier approach would go a long way.
The tattoo shop delivered good work, but prices were inconsistent. Initially, I was quoted £95 per hour, then later £80, which felt unprofessional. While the result was fine, I could find more reliable and consistent artists back home.
Overall, Green Nature Resort has potential but lacks the service and security to live up to 4-star standards. I would not recommend this place to anyone, and I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.
The Gamers (TheGamers)
It's a really nice hotel, the location is great. About 900 meters from the beach and mountains in the background. You could go with the bus to the beach which comes every day. Food is good, sometimes little bit cold but overall good. The hotel is mostly English so most of the food and drinks are from English culture. For the waiters on the other hand, they were mostly talking to each other and didn't do much. If you are sitting on one of the furthest tables chances are small that they are coming to ask for drinks. And for the tables, some big tables are reserved every day. Little bit weird. Swimming pools are great. Fun waterslides. Some extra things that the resort could change are: animation costs, some activities costs money. Like the bingo and pizza making. For a all inclusive resort this could be changed in the future. Overall this is a great resort and we had a lot of fun!

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

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

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