Reviews
This hotel is fantastic with a perfect location. The reception team is always friendly and makes you feel truly at home. The Guest Relations Manager Sule, is one of the kindest and most attentive people I’ve ever met. She was extremely supportive when I had a health issue during my stay, and I’m very grateful for her help. The overall atmosphere and the staff’s approach make you feel special and valued. I will definitely come back!
Very friendly attentive staff.
Great selection of food and desserts. Snack bar amazing.
Hairdresser and nail bar did not meet my expectations compared to other places.
Overall great experience exceptionally clean .
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.
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
The staff are very attentive and can't do enough for you.
One thing I will say about the food is that most of it was good (Waffle Corner and Gozleme). Some of the desserts were really nice and so was the milkshake cartons (at breakfast) and some of the non-alcoholic cocktail drinks. But there were times with the show/on demand cooking like on the last day we left, we had an early breakfast, and the pancakes were raw on the inside as the cook was also frying sandwiches. Once some of the evening BBQ kebab was pink on the inside, but we didn't eat those and left it. Also, several occasions trying to get a fried egg. The lady doing the fried eggs was also doing the pancakes and sometimes she wasn't there (tidying up). It would be good to have them prepared in advance like the boiled eggs.
The beach is a bit a bit stony near the water's edge, but it's more sandy further out and you can always get a sunbed at any time (if you can’t get a bed round the pool). Also went to the spa and indoor swimming pool, which was good if you couldn't get into the main pool, which was always very busy with games.
Also liked that the hotel was near shops.
