Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers one of the biggest standard rooms we have experienced on an all-inclusive holiday, with welcoming gestures like a bottle of bubbly, a fruit platter, and rose petals on the bed. The room amenities are top-notch, and the food is of a good standard. However, some staff members seemed indifferent, dampening the overall holiday experience.
The hotel offers lovely, spacious rooms with amazing amenities and plentiful food. The service was friendly and understanding of hygiene standards. The location is perfect near the beach and shops. Dining was excellent with a variety of choices. The facilities are top-notch.
My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were incredibly spacious and I was greeted with a lovely bottle of bubbly, a fruit platter, and rose petals on the bed - such a nice touch! The staff, though mostly polite and helpful, seemed a bit disinterested at times. The location was beautiful, offering easy access to the pool bar serving refreshing drinks all day. However, a taxi was needed to explore beyond the beach area. The dining experience was amazing, with different serving areas for fish and meat, making it more peaceful than the main dining area. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with two bathrooms, which was a great help for our family with two daughters. Having stayed in multiple Turkey hotels before, this one stands out with all the amenities one could wish for. However, the service fell short as the staff seemed indifferent despite being wonderful and helpful. The location near the beach was convenient, but taxi rides were necessary to explore the city. The dining experience was impressive with a variety of choices, and the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel is a gem with lovely and clean rooms on level 6. The hairdressers offer a real treat. However, the rooms do not fully match the five-star rating. The service was exceptional, from the kind trampoline man to the cheery and friendly staff, but a slight delay at check-in. The location offers a pool bar serving drinks and snacks, but some attractions require a taxi. The dining experience with a huge buffet and excellent staff was amazing. However, some themed nights were missing. The facilities were top-notch.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel. The rooms were spotless and comfortable with air conditioning, cozy beds, a beautiful bathroom, and a clean shower. I especially enjoyed the nice balcony on level 6 which offered a decent view. Despite a minor issue with leakage, the amenities in the room were top-notch.
My stay at the hotel was unexpectedly eventful, ending up in a Turkish hospital, but the rooms were huge and spacious with all the amenities you could want. The location was convenient and near the beach, although there was a slight push to sell things. The dining experience was amazing, and the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms with massive twin beds downstairs, making it a perfect place to stay. The service is outstanding, with friendly and polite staff always engaging with customers. The location is lovely, especially with the convenient access to Luna Park. The dining experience is amazing, accompanied by excellent staff. However, the facilities provided could be more diverse, and the early closure of the pool bar is a minor inconvenience.
The hotel was ideally located near the beach with a comfortable room setup for families. The service was lacking in English proficiency but offered fun activities around the pool. Dining options were varied and satisfying with exceptional staff. A few language barriers were evident but the overall experience was pleasant.
The hotel rooms were amazing, well-stocked with lovely toiletries and kept clean. The food was plentiful and the staff at the hairdressers were outstanding. Overall, a brilliant place to stay with no complaints, highly recommended.
