Reviews
The pools are excellent, the food is high quality and impressively fresh, and there’s a wide choice of restaurants covering everything from Asian to European cuisine. It’s an easy place to relax and enjoy summer without feeling rushed or crowded.
A special mention is absolutely deserved for the watersports team. Their professionalism, warmth and genuine friendliness stand out. Welcoming, attentive and always positive, they reflect the very best of Turkish hospitality — the kind of people who quietly elevate the entire experience and leave a lasting impression.
An ideal destination for a relaxed, enjoyable summer break.
However, one aspect caused significant disappointment. One of the main reasons we chose this hotel was the advertised offer of water activities, as stated on the official website — including sailing boats and windsurfing equipment available to guests. To our surprise, on the first day we were informed that these activities were no longer provided by the responsible vendor. The only complimentary option available was a small single kayak. Other motorized boats and jet skis were available, but only at an additional cost.
I contacted guest services twice and was told that management would follow up regarding the issue, but unfortunately, no response was received during our stay. I find it highly inappropriate that the website continues to advertise these amenities when they are no longer available. This discrepancy represents, at the very least, a communication failure — and from a consumer’s perspective, it may be considered misleading advertising.
Although all other aspects of our stay met our expectations, the main goal of our trip — sailing with my children — could not be fulfilled. I sincerely hope the hotel reviews how it communicates its services and ensures greater transparency with future guests.
If it weren’t for this issue, I would certainly have rated our stay 4 to 5 stars. However, in our case, this was a major disappointment, and the only way to express our dissatisfaction to the hotel management is by giving a lower rating.
I would especially like to thank the animators Vako, Sevgi, and Nazmi, who took care of us throughout the day, as well as Hasan and Furkan, who served us during dinner. I also want to thank the team at the beach bar and the gözleme and döner hut.
In short, I’d like to thank everyone who made this holiday such a wonderful experience for my spouse and me.
The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. A special mention goes to Serkan from the bar, who made every visit a delight with his friendly service and great drinks. Hasan and samet from the main restaurant ensured every meal was enjoyable, making us feel looked after and comfortable throughout.
The entertainment team – Vakho, and Sevgi – brought so much energy and fun to the holiday. Their enthusiasm created such a lively atmosphere, and they always went the extra mile to keep everyone entertained.
The gentlemen doing the house keeping on level 1 room 711* was also very polite and done he’s job to an outstanding professionalism and made sure all our needs were met.
Overall, this hotel offers not only beautiful surroundings but also a team that genuinely cares about their guests. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing yet vibrant getaway!
The only constructive criticism I could give is ramazan (blue shirt) from snack bar next to the pool had an attitude for some reason, who knows he might have been having a bad day.
The hotel is located in a chic location, rooms with the most beautiful views of the sea and mountains. everything is equipped for children, there is a water park, playgrounds. Animation is on top!! every day at 21.00 they arrange discos for children, where animators dance with them. and at 22:00 there is always some kind of performance, whether it's a circus, dancing, etc.From 23:00 to 00:00, an amazing party with a DJ's masterwork. I would like to note that there are many themed restaurants with food from different countries of the world. there are also coffee shops, bars and small restaurants. the food in the main restaurant is very tasty and there is a huge selection. There are different positions every day. the cook cooks food on the grill, you can choose whatever you want.many thanks to the animators, their stay at the hotel was unforgettable. the rooms are cleaned well, the staff is very kind and helpful. a beautiful green area, these beauties are fascinating. there is an opportunity to play sports, dance, and take excursions. Everything is made for people, huh. the atmosphere is incredibly pleasant.
I definitely recommend it!! The hotel has left a huge mark on my heart and a storm of positive emotions.having arrived only yesterday, I already miss this beautiful hotel. I liked everything))
We fell in love with the hotel and everything. All employees except one are so friendly and supportive that increases the added value to customer journey and satisfaction.
Special thanks to chefs, life guards, Animation Team, reception team and everyone ! Thank you!
My recent stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. This is by far the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in. The towels provided were dirty, and even after requesting new ones, they were still not clean. The room cleaning service was equally disappointing, as they never cleaned the room properly—hair remained in the shower, the floor was always dirty, and the room was full of dust.
The rooms are in desperate need of renovation. The walls and floors are filthy and give the entire place a very unwelcoming feel. Although the location is a bit far from the main attractions, the hotel does offer an amazing view, which was one of the few positives.
Unfortunately, the food was another letdown. It lacked taste and variety; every day, it was the same bland menu. Unlike other hotels, where there are usually special dishes offered each day, this hotel failed to provide any culinary excitement.
On a positive note, the service personnel, in general, were okay, except for the cleaning staff, who really let the overall experience down. The pools were great, the hotel was not overcrowded, the air was fantastic, and the beach was simply amazing.
However, the positives do not outweigh the negatives, and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean and enjoyable stay.
