Reviews
The sea is wonderful, with a clean sandy beach, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We were especially impressed by the attitude of the hotel manager, who kindly helped us resolve a few questions that came up during check-in.
This hotel allowed us to discover a different side of Turkey — as a high-quality destination with a truly European approach to hospitality.
Highly recommended for families and anyone looking for comfort, relaxation, and excellent service.
I made a reservation and requested an invoice after paying by card, and the staff told me that it would be sent by email — however, this was a lie.
I called several times, sent emails, and even chatted with the hotel representative online, but I never received a concrete response, and the invoice was never issued.
The behavior and complete lack of professionalism are unacceptable for a hotel that claims to provide quality service.
❌ I do not recommend this hotel under any circumstances.
The kitchen was perfectly fine for us: good food ( focus on Turkisch kitchen), wide choice and sufficient variety between the dishes in the buffet and a neat presentation. The beach is about 10 minute walk which was no problem for us ( shuttle service available ).
Our only niggles were that eating at the restaurant on the most popular times was a rush. ( with people skipping lines etc. ) and
that there were not enough sunbeds and parasols for the busy times at the pool. We definitely recommend Glamour Resort Spa hotel for a sunny holiday with children.
