Rixos Premium Bodrum is a beautiful resort located on a stunning bay. Our room was very clean and equipped with all the necessary amenities. During the day, there was plenty of sports activities, thanks to a professional animation team. The main restaurant offered a very diverse buffet, and at Restaurant People’s, we enjoyed delicious pides and other Turkish dishes for lunch. In terms of food quality, we consider this resort one of the best we have visited so far. The lobby served amazing cocktails; we’ve never had them this good before. At the Godiva bar, we savored delightful cakes and chocolates.
The staff were also very friendly and helpful!
One suggestion for improvement would be to add an adults-only section in the main restaurant. During our stay, there were many young children, which sometimes resulted in significant noise disturbances during meals.
All in all, it was a fantastic experience, and we would love to come back!

Great hotel and employees. Truly enjoyed our stay here! Would recommend it for individuals as well as families with small children and friend groups.
The staff was super kind! Food was awesome. The beach, spa and pools were great as well!

We recently stayed at Rixos Premium Bodrum in Turkey for a week-long family vacation, and we had an excellent time! The resort is set in a beautiful bay, offering gorgeous views that made for a stunning backdrop each day. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, contributing to a very relaxing stay.
The food quality was top-notch—one of the best we’ve experienced so far! The main restaurant featured a wide variety of options, and People’s Restaurant delighted us with delicious pides and Turkish specialties for lunch. We were also impressed by the cocktails in the lobby, which were probably the best we’ve ever tasted, and the Godiva bar was a treat with delightful cakes and chocolates. Additionally, the animation team provided ample sports activities, adding a fun and lively atmosphere during the day.
The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. We’d love to return, and we truly had a fantastic experience.
However, one downside to note: while the resort itself was incredible, we found the prices at the shops within the hotel to be unreasonably high. For example, a plastic cigarette lighter that costs around 1 Euro for three elsewhere was being sold for 5 Euros each. The barbershop was asking for 45 Euros for a beard trim, a service we usually pay 9 Euros for in Germany. Additionally, renting a paddleboard was priced at 30 Euros per hour, which felt excessive. While we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we recommend venturing outside the resort if you need any of these services or goods.
All in all, Rixos Premium Bodrum is a wonderful place to stay, and we hope to return!

The worst Rixos I’ve ever been to. The staff is indifferent to you. Your requests are ignored. Moreover, the staff goes out of their way to ruin your stay. They make up their own rules. When asked to show where these rules are written, they don’t provide anything.
Situation: A friend of mine came to the lobby to talk, without ordering anything or using hotel services. The staff kept telling us he could only stay for 30 minutes, and after that, we would have to pay 400 euros! For what? For simply wanting to talk to someone in the lobby of the hotel I’m staying at, without ordering anything? This is disrespectful to me as a guest. I’ve paid for the hotel, and yet, they’re rushing me and telling me to finish the conversation quickly.
There’s also constant noise from music in the lobby from 9:30 PM to 11:00 PM, which disturbs children from sleeping.

We stayed for our honeymoon and were pleased to have been upgraded upon arrival. The room was decorated with bubbly, cake and nibbles board. The view was beautiful.
Our only disappointment was that the A-la-carte restaurants' were all closed expect the Italian. Considering the hotel was full it was disappointing that they saw September as end of season. Disappointing as this was one of the reasons we chose the hotel.
Otherwise the hotel was beautiful and public areas immaculate. The staff were all lovely especially the ladies in the Turquoise restaurant.
The one negative about the hotel were the other guests who were extremely rude and demanding. Seeing how they treated the staff (especially the ladies) was very upsetting to see. They seemed to think they were above everyone and even had to call staff to put towels down on the bed for them. Lazy & Rude.
Additional safety points would be for Rixos to pay some attention to the steps around the resort & leading to the room. They are uneven with no hand rails. The rails in the stairwells of the rooms are loose and dirty. This could do with some attention.
Otherwise fab resort and holiday.
