In fact, he ate the best he’s ever eaten at any time! The staff in the restaurant were exceptional! Being creatures of habit, we sat in the same section each mealtime and were very well looked after by ATA and his team
Once again, we want to thank you for the wonderful holiday of all dear people who have become close and make every year our vacation perfect and special. Lovely holiday, clean and cozy hotel with lots of facilities
Amazing and delicious food, fruit, baclava and coffee. Very good service from all staff, but especially Eyyup, Kadir and Suat in the main restaurant, so friendly and kind staff. Always welcome with a big smile
We booked all our beautiful trips with Incekumtour Kolibri, they are just opposite road from Pegasos Resort Hotel, lovely and friendly people, always ready to help. We can't wait to come again this year
The small touches like remembering our drinks orders for each different meal showed great customer service and care! ATA was a really positive aspect of our holiday given the attention to detail he put into ensuring our mealtimes were enjoyable and that we were happy with everything
All green plants and flowers are fresh and so beautiful. The beach is clean and welcoming. Cats, the little hearts, are part of this amazing place and they are full of love
As someone with food allergies, I was extremely satisfied with my stay at this hotel
stayed at this hotel because earlier this year I had a great experience in another property of the same chain in Antalya. Unfortunately, the level of service here turned out to be very different
Even simple requests became difficult, and sometimes the staff would avoid interaction once they realized I wasn’t a German speaker. Breakfast is extremely limited and doesn’t feel like a 5-star standard at all
Evening entertainment is minimal: bingo, some live music (average quality), a short dance program until 23:00 and then everything stops, while neighboring hotels remain active much longer
Lunch is slightly better, but still very basic. Only dinner resembles what you would expect from a hotel of this category. Drinks also vary greatly in quality depending on the bartender
The building itself feels dated. The beds and mattresses seem new, but other furniture is worn out, and the TV looks like it’s from the early 2000s
We were given an incredible room with a sea view, from which we watched the sunset every evening
for which a special thanks to the hotel☺️
Of the minuses, I expected that the hotel would be exclusively with tourists from Europe, at the same time during our stay at the end of September there were a large number of tourists from Russia(((
Would I return to this hotel? More likely yes than no
Our family chose this hotel every summer, because it has so many advantages, like long beach line, free WiFi around the area of three hotels, bars with alcohol and non alcoholic drinks, very attentive staff, we especially would like to notice Nevzat, he is respectful and polite
WiFi was free and worked at the beach and across the whole resort (many reviews I saw said otherwise) We went mid September and never had a problem getting a sun lounger on the beach, even when turning up at 10am or later
Fabulous resort. Delicious food. Very clean. Amazing staff. Thank you to Selim, Koray and Burak, at the restaurant. Thank you to the lovely lady at customer services, the one with a little boy. Can't wait to come back.
You can use all the bars at the resort so there was a lot of choice on what vibe you were feeling (although the same menu) Cocktails could maybe be a bit stronger but guess that's what you get with all inclusive
An absolutely excellent old hotel. The service quality is top-notch, truly reflecting the beauty of an economically prosperous era; it must have been built to incredibly high standards back then
If I go back, I'd definitely choose to stay here again. The aromatherapy scent is also wonderful, a beloved local brand. All sorts of local experiences are perfectly catered for
Very nice hotel with fantastic views of the water. Huge, tasty variety at the breakfast buffet. Everyone went out of their way to make sure our stay was perfect. Victoria in particular made us feel like long time guests
The location is great, and the lobby is cozy. The view is nice, and you can see the bridge crossing to the Asian part.
The hotel is a bit old but overall the facilities is good. Not many choices for the breakfast buffet.
We booked a sea view room, and initially, we were given one with a side view of the sea. After speaking with the staff, they moved us to a room with a much wider sea view
Compared to many other five star hotels, this design was amazing!
I will absolutely recommend this hotel to everyone who looks for high-end quality of the place as well as peace of mind
As a frequent guest at The Marmara Taksim, I am consistently impressed by the high standard of service, but the restaurant team truly sets this hotel apart
Booked this trip for my mum's 60th birthday. I emailed The Marmara before our arrival, to let them know of the special occasion. We had an upgrade and there were fresh flowers, chocolates and fruit
A special thank you to Aysun, Hasan, and Hatice for their outstanding hospitality. They are not only professional and quick but have a remarkable ability to anticipate guest needs
On the day of mum's birthday, we came back to the room to find a delicious cake and a hand written note to wish a happy birthday
It’s the simple, thoughtful details that make the difference—like remembering my specific coffee order before I even ask
-We had requested a sea view and no ground floor room, and the hotel really listened to us. We had the most stunning room overseeing the swimming pools, greenery and the sea
-There were pool snack bars and night snack bars. These people don't joke about their snacks 😂 We arrived at 1am in the morning and were sent for some food at the night snack bar and we were presented with a full menu
The evenings was sometimes a hit and miss, with livs performances in the amphitheatre or the lobby bar. My partner won in the bingo game, so that was cool, and the Fantasy dance group was really amazing
I thought for a relaxation oriented resort, there needn't be too many activities happening so for me it was more than enough. Some pool activities in the afternoon for like hskf an hour to an hour
You really get this luxury sense, you have everything in one place, absolutely loved the private beach, the 3 different outdoor pools and the waterslides were cool, all the bars, the food
I and my partner did the aqua bikes and it was fun. The beach activities, I engaged in Boccia, still don't get the rules, but it was ok, and had lots of fun playing beach volleyball

The hotel is spotless and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The hotel feels luxurious at all tines
We stayed here last week and had a brilliant holiday in this hotel. The hotel was kept very well, lots of maintenance and upkeep work evident all week to keep this hotel to a very high standard
The gardens and groundskeeping was excellent. All the staff are a credit to this hotel, very helpful and friendly. Barut Hemera really is a well run hotel who aim to give guests the best possible experience
Barut resorts are known to the best one. we had great time and love to go back in future , all the hotel staff was very friendly and very cooperative. Food was very high class and lots of choice
The warmth and genuine hospitality of the staff are among the best we’ve experienced in all our travels. Attention to detail truly feels embedded in the DNA of Barut Hemera
The service staff are equally impressive — attentive, courteous, and always one step ahead, anticipating your needs before you even ask. And the food… simply outstanding
Whether it was cocktails, wine, or classic beverages, everything was prepared with care and tasted excellent. What truly made the stay stand out, though, was the level of service
The staff were attentive, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. It really felt like they went above and beyond to ensure guests had a great experience
Overall, I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for great food, amazing drinks, and top-tier service
It’s centrally controlled and during my stay it only provided heat. I had booked a quiet room since I was working remotely, but still got a room where you could clearly hear both neighbors and people in the corridor
Rooms Fresh and fairly modern rooms. Cleaning is OK – more of a light clean with new towels rather than a full clean. Good range of products in the shower
Also missing basic information in the room – for example what’s included in the minibar, restaurant times, and reception contact details

There is an entertainment program in the pool and in the evenings in the amphitheater. There is a lot of entertainment, your hotel guide. I recommend both for a relaxing and active holiday, including with children
It's a really good hotel and a very good team in this hotel I'm really coming back to this hotel. The quality of the food here is excellent.
Had soup at about 2 am - that was a new experience The next day we went for breakfast and met some of the friendliest waiters you could ask for - Hakan was lovely, as we're all the other waiters
The lady who does the amazing flatbread was so nice, and looked after us, and showed my partner how they were made from start to finish, and even did her a heart pancake for breakfast on our last day
They held tables for us, got us drinks and checked on us the entire time. We met the 2 lovely people who promote the hammam on site, and had a laugh with them every time we saw them
Well, we arrived, were greeted by amazing reception staff at around 1am, who made us feel so welcome, took us to our room and showed us round
There was also a great selection of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. The entertainment team did a fantastic job – the animations and activities were fun and well-organized
A true gem! The hotel was spotless, and the cleanliness was clearly a top priority. Everyone here was warm and welcoming, which really made the atmosphere enjoyable
The slides at the pool were good too, although there’s still some room for improvement. The beach was nice and a great spot to relax. Overall, a truly enjoyable experience – I would definitely come back!
Special thanks to Yasin, one of the waiters, who provided exceptional service every single day. He was always smiling, attentive, and made every meal feel special
The room is clean, the beds are comfortable, the location is good, close to the center of Alanya, the atmosphere in the hotel is good, the service is nice, there are no language barriers - I had the pleasure of being in a Mexican restaurant, thanks to Yvcel Drhan for being professional and serving delicious dishes, they looked great
This was the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at! The food selection was incredible – there was a wide variety to choose from, and everything I tried was delicious
At the reception, they put bracelets on us and we brought our things into a separate room, then we ran to the hammam (this is to get an even tan) and we were offered a massage in the hammam, it was unforgettable, then we went to the reception, a cozy room with air conditioning was waiting for us - for 8 days of rest, my husband and I liked everything: delicious food, a variety of salads, soups, cakes...
Exceptional hotel experience!
Cuisine was outstanding-gourmet breakfast buffets, exquisite seafood, and decadent desserts
Themed culinary nights were unforgettable!
Hotel concept masterfully blends modern luxury with natural elements: elegant rooms, infinity pools, and serene spa zones
Animation team brought non-stop joy!
Engaging daily activities, lively pool games, and dazzling evening performances. Impeccable service and meticulous attention to detail
An unforgettable stay at this amazing hotel!
The food was exceptional - gourmet breakfasts, fresh seafood dinners, and delicious desserts
An amazing hotel experience!
The food was incredible - diverse buffets with fresh seafood, gourmet dishes and delicious desserts
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
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
beautiful. the clear sea . And generally cool
Located in the quieter Akyarlar area of Bodrum, this resort truly feels like a hidden gem
Just a few kilometres from the Greek island of Kos, it offers beautiful, open sea views that immediately set a calm and expansive tone
It's not a huge resort but that's not a bad thing as there's not too much walking and there is always a bar close by. Beds and pillow are firm and you can ask them to put a foam layer on top of the mattress which helps
We had an amazing stay at Jiva Beach Resort Fethiye. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The location, atmosphere, and overall experience exceeded our expectations
A special thanks to Melike at the reception for her warm welcome, professionalism, and always being helpful with a smile. She made us feel truly valued as guests
Also, a big appreciation to Executive Chef Serkan, whose food was outstanding. Every meal was delicious, well-presented, and clearly prepared with great care and talent
This is my second time at Jiva Beach and 7 years later the service is still excellent. The restaurant has a new extension ,the variety of food is exceptional and so is the service, the staff can't do enough for you
We were the only Asian family in the entire resort, so the staff called me by name as soon as I arrived at the front desk. It's very relaxing to be with my family. There are unlimited drinks and snacks
On the warm Mediterranean sea 2 minutes walking , with multiple pools for elders and childrens , and all the equipment for kids
The downside is that they do not explain anything and you just figure out yourself. Our rooms were cleaned daily!!towels where also changed and bottles of water,drinks where stored in the fridge in our rooms
My husband booked this hotel and I was a little scared after reading the reviews. Honestly don’t believe the reviews and be put of,people have their own opinions or it could be to put the resort down
Pools were clean and plenty pools for everyone to enjoy. 30
Also you would get a call from a tourist guide offering to come see you and then he will advertise activities and days out
30 they have burgers,chips,pizzas,wraps,spaghetti,shawarma for those who do not prefer Turkish cuisine,also unlimited drinks,coffees,tea and hot chocolate throughout the day
Plenty of food all day and different choices
There is a bar near the beach that opens at 12-4
We stayed at the hotel for 3 nights in mid-August with my wife and our 15-year-old daughter. Even though it was peak season, the place never felt overcrowded and we did not experience long queues
The food was plentiful and tasty, and there was always something available to eat at any time of the day. We never noticed any excessive waiting in line. The staff were always friendly and helpful
Like in many resorts, some guests reserved sunbeds early in the morning by leaving towels, but even after breakfast we were still able to find sunbeds by the pool or the beach without any problem
There is alot of uphill and down hill walking and with little children it wasn't easy. To go from the children's aqua park to the children's playground area was a good 10 min walk uphill
We stayed 5 days and enjoyed the break. The only thing which we didn't know was the amount of walking that needed to be done do get to the places we went to
Also the aircon wasn't cold at all. the breeze outside was better than the inside
I didnt get my partical sea view and ekstra bed i paid for. I just recive a sofa with pellows and blanket which is already excised in every room.
We have had the best holiday ever. The staff, food and premises are amazing and we have never had a never a better Holiday. We have used the spa facilities and they have been great! We will definitely come back again
There are a lot of Russian people staying in the hotel so Russian is spoken more widely than English - Google translate was our friend! Would I stay here again - no Would I recommend - possibly for families with small children as that area looked great fun
There were 10 of us and we had a great holiday. The hotel is very clean everywhere and has lots of activities on offer. The drinks are great and the lobby bar serves the best cocktails
I have been to over 50 hotels in my life, including half a dozen similar resorts and never had such a great experience
We also loved the beach bar and the bar on the pier…. There’s a theme here! The Pâtisserie serves great coffee and cakes and the street food cabin is also fun and handy for a snack
Wonderful animations and evening activities. Very good food and a large selection in the restaurant. The only downside was that the bartenders did not speak English very well, which made communication a bit difficult
We would like to sincerely thank Erol for the conversations, the lovely experiences at the bar, and the great care. Special thanks for the amazing animations and fantastic fun to: DJ, Rio, Ronnie, Ferry, and Tiril
We stayed at Ephesia as a group of four (actually five 🤰) in May, and it was beautiful. A great hotel with large, comfortable rooms. Plenty of opportunities to spend time and a wide choice of pools
The fabulous entertainment team mentioned above were still working during the nighttime shows, they never stop!
We loved this holiday and will definitely be returning
Pleasantly surprised! Excellent resort. We went on a last-minute trip without too many expectations and came back with smiles on our faces and wonderful memories
The sea is definitely not its strong point, but it has everything you need to relax and have fun, for adults and children alike. Good food, pleasant staff and lots to see in the surrounding area
Numan went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect during my stay, and his service really stood out. Thank you to the entire team, and a special thanks to Numan for making my visit memorable
A nice classic vacation destination. Food at the buffet was delish every day, staff were we friendly and funny, and hosted events every night such as live bands
While the large outdoor pool was understandably closed in this season, the heated indoor pool and spa more than made up for it and turned chilly days into relaxing wellness afternoons
A heartfelt thank you goes in particular to Samet, Ibrahim and Numan from the reception team, who were graciously accommodating and welcoming at every turn, to Enes from the entertainment team for being such an amazing sport and bringing smiles even on quieter November evenings, and to Ali Tunç, Ibrahim and Irem from the restaurant staff for their wonderful kindness, attention to detail and constant...
Every single member of staff encountered – from reception to restaurant to housekeeping – was genuinely kind, attentive and helpful, treating the family and especially the user’s disabled father with real warmth and respect rather than just routine politeness
A special highlight is the Cafe Mandarin downstairs, which quickly became the favourite spot for coffee, cakes and a quiet break – it feels like a little café world of its own inside the hotel, perfect for recharging before the next activity
Positives : Very clean beach /sea with snack bar Sea warmer than the pool Patisserie /cafe fresh coffees cakes Lollies Snack bar with table service 24 hour restaurant Cleaners good Massive pool Friendly staff at the bar in the evening Branded drinks 24hr Entertainment every night was ok live bands mostly Some pool entertainment Mini bar in room stocked Dailey with beers and soft drinks 70tl...
It's faster than it looks as well. Quiet pool was a good place to chill out away from the hustle and bustle Beach was nice and sea was great for swimming in
Staff were friendly and helpful Food is generally good and plentiful-you won't go hungry Bars (lobby, pool, beach) drinks are good including named brands Main pool is of a good size and there were plenty of sunbeds (bear in mind it was October and not August) The slide is fun at the main pool but not always open
In my opinion it is a decent 4 star hotel and not a 5 star hotel. I was told that the company only took over the hotel in January 2025 and they are in the process of updating the rooms, but I can't verify this either way
I have travelled to Turkey on many occasions and stayed at some fantastic hotels. The Selectum Collection doesn't quite live up to these, but to be fair it is a nice hotel and well worth a trip if the price is right
It is situated in quite a remote place, but there are regular buses for 70 TL into Bodrum. Although Turgutreis is nearer and in my opinion a bit nicer than Bodrum, there are only limited buses which is a shame

Many thanks to Service Manager Sedat Bey, who worked hard for us to have a good vacation with his attention and smile in the mornings. As for food and drinks, it's one of the best in the area with exceptional flavors
The Estela 24 hrs A la carte is very good and Eyup, our waiter really took care of us on each visit. We loved the Fuego A la carte as well waiters and the chef who prepared our food provided great entertainment
Serenity's welcoming process is very nice from the start, with fast registration procedures and champagne treats like Dom Perignon, making you feel like you're having a premium vacation experience
We've visited several hotels in Belek to play golf. Gloria hotels are at the top of our favorites. Our current stay at Serenity is excellent. We've had fabulous food throughout the hotel
The 24/7 restaurant is a real world cuisine stop. The pastries at the Sunday buffet were amazing, our favorite being the cheesecake. We really thank and congratulate Ali Usta
Gloria Serenity once again delivers to the highest standards. The atmosphere is so calming and relaxing. The welcome at reception sets the scene and the rooms are beautiful
