Description

Dalyan Resort - Special Class is a riverside hotel established in 1999 and renovated in 2012, offering 58 rooms ranging from Superior to Deluxe categories, some with balconies overlooking the pool. The property features spacious gardens with views of the Kalbis River and the ancient city of Kaunos. Guests can enjoy two swimming pools, one designated for families with children under 12 and another for adults, as children are not permitted to stay in the hotel itself. The hotel provides a range of facilities including a spa with paid services like massage, sauna, and Turkish bath, a fitness center, and a restaurant serving mainly Turkish cuisine. Daily room cleaning and free Wi-Fi in public areas contribute to a comfortable stay. The staff receive frequent praise for helpfulness, especially individuals like Ali the pool attendant and John at the bar. The hotel’s quiet atmosphere suits travelers seeking relaxation rather than a lively family environment.

Location

Located in Dalyan, Turkey, Dalyan Resort sits on the banks of the Kalbis River, 3.55 km from the popular sandy Iztuzu Beach and 18 km from Dalaman Airport. The hotel is approximately a 15-20 minute walk from Dalyan town center, where guests will find numerous restaurants and shops. A taxi ride to the town costs under £4. Nearby, Gel-gör Restaurant is just 262 meters away and highly rated by visitors. The hotel’s river jetty provides access to Dolmus boats for direct transport to Iztuzu Beach. This setting provides a tranquil riverside environment while keeping key attractions within easy reach.

Tips

  • If you prefer a quieter room, avoid rooms near the kitchen area and request a room away from the generator noise.

We booked into this hotel for 21 nights and paid an upgrade for the room. We had 2 nights there, second night only while waiting to move to another hotel in Dalyan. To give this hotel one star is generous. We were allocated room 2108 on arrival. This room is next to the kitchen, the room had an awful stale cooking smell, and a kitchen generator near the back wall of the room louder than the air conditioning. The only cold beer on offer was a can of Effes at £4 each. To order food there were no Menu's, food had to be ordered via your own phone with a download. Sleep was impossible, generator till 10.30 at night then 4am tables were starting to be removed for the breakfast set up, these were stacked against the room wall so lots of banging and clattering. Not the peace and quiet promised on the web site . Room itself was not what was expected. Toilet roll holder hanging off the wall, beaker holder minus the beaker, 6 very nice coat hangers in the wardrobe for a 21 night stay ?? No big fluffy towels just the usual thin grey ones as found in other less expensive hotels. Breakfast was adequate, nothing out of the ordinary for Turkey. We felt sorry for the young man making the omelette's fighting with the wasps. Apparently it was our own fault for not asking for a room change, nothing to do with Management allocating this room knowing how bad it was.

Dalyan Resort Hotel Val and I have visited the Resort for 18 years, sometimes twice a year, that speaks for itself. Obviously things change over time, but not the policy of the Resort where the guests needs come first. We meet Many guests who return time and time again, The location is ideal for us, beautiful gardens on a river setting, no shortage of areas sunbathing. May not suite families with teenagers.

We stayed in September 2025. The Hotel, hotel staff and the location were very, very good and when we got home, we immediately booked to go back next year. Food in the hotel was typically Turkish - nice simple food but there are also a lot of great little places to eat right along the riverside or in Dalyan town that you can walk to or get a cab in the evening. A cab to Dalyan costs less than £4. Among the excellent staff, John in the bar and Ali the pool man were special. Not sure it would suit young families so much but we loved it. Shame they didn't include real balconies when they built the place but the Dalyan Resort still got an overall 5 star rating from us.

All the staff are fantastic, a special mention to Ali he’s amazing and John the bar man. Reception staff very helpful too.

Overall, we have had an amazing experience at the Dalyan Resort. Our rooms were both on the first floor overlooking the pool. They were extremely clean and up to a high standard. With housekeeping offered on a daily basis. The pool area was kept extremely clean with plenty of space around both pools. A pool towel is provided on your first day and exchanged as often as you wish. Breakfast is on a continental basis, however very basic and they could do with upgrading their coffee machines. It was more frothy milk than coffee. The restaurant in the hotel is to a high standard although there was a few times at lunch when staff didn’t quite understand the order ( there are many Malaysian staff) however was soon resolved by the very pleasant waiter Bulent! Who always took the time to come and greet us and ask us about our day. more than any other member of staff, He truly is an asset to the hotel and should be in a more prominent position!The views of the river make it a lovely location however ensure you have mosquito spray of an evening! Another person to mention is Ali, you will see this chap running around all day long from pool cleaning to handing out towels to carrying luggage. He really does earn his money and he stops to speak to everyone.! a very pleasant man and thank you for all your help around the pool. We will definitely return, however on the condition that we get to choose which rooms we are in as I don’t believe we would’ve had the same experience had we been on the ground floor? Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!

The hotel has beautiful grounds, lots of flowers,seating areas, swings etc. The staff are great in the bar / food area and Ali the pool guy is an absolute credit to the hotel he will do anything for you. Taxis are £4 to town or if you want to walk it's around 20 minutes. Cobbled and just slight lighting on an evening. Plenty of restaurants and shops etc. The river is stunning to sit by and relax. We had a Dulux room by the pool area, it was spacious and had a seating area outside. It's quiet as no under 12s are allowed. Food is lovely. The spa and gym are great. Mosquitos are a nightmare and I got bit a lot but the chemists sell things to help but definitely use insect repellents and antihistamines. Boat trips are available and free on some days. The pool is massive but one depth all round but as steps to walk into.

We arrived here at 3am in the morning very tied. I had contacted the hotel in advance to request a twin room not a double bed etc but with we arrived, yep we were given a double. Refused this so were then taken to an upstairs family room (we had paid to upgrade on the booking for a deluxe room) and told we’d had to sleep there for the night. They did move us the next day. We then realised we had booked the Spa Hotel which was adults only but they put us in the no adults only side. We didn’t make a fuss as actually preferred the atmosphere this side. Our flight home was not until gone 10pm so we requested a late check out. The man on reception was so rude to me that morning, refused my late check out then told me if I paid £50 I could have the room til 4pm which was no good as not leaving til 7pm and so hot to just sit around waiting so we showered and changed in the gym. Not ideal but it worked. Appalled at the way we spoke to me tho. John the barman is wonderful and Ali the pool/help guy is absolutely amazing these people make the place not the reception staff who need a course on customer service!

My wife and I have just returned from a superb 10 days at this resort. The Dalyan Resort Spa Hotel is nothing short of excellent. It is in a superb location on the river and a short walk into town where there are an abundance of bars and restaurants. We found the hotel, which is family owned and who live on site, spotlessly clean and superbly managed throughout. The rooms are of generous proportions, well equipped and cleaned immaculately every day. The entire staff were customer facing, pleasant and couldn't do enough to make our stay extremely enjoyable. Special mention must go to Ali at the pool and John at the bar. Breakfast is a simple affair with salads, cheeses, cold meats and olives. It also includes freshly made breads, pancakes and omelettes each morning which are delicious. Lunch and dinner are ala carte with a comprehensive menu which is equally delicious. There are two pools. One serves families with children under twelve whilst the other caters for couples. There is a Spa and a well equipped gymnasium. All in all a very enjoyable holiday. I highly recommend this hotel and will be returning next year.
