“3* at a push,keen Turkey traveler.Read all bad reviews!”

Writing while I’m on my 4th day in this hotel. Hotel is not 5* in appeal ,services and general quality.MAX 3* . Extremely outdated in places . Visually not creating a feel of 5* complex ,only grounds(very beautiful green gardens with pomegranate trees /lemons and other greenery)leading from lobby to main pool area give visual aesthetic appearance and for this I give this hotel a credit. Rest of the grounds just look very tired and not looked after,with lock up places all over and some smell coming from there. Gym:big ,lots of older style machinery,can have decent session ,but…it’s super hot inside ,no air cons and half of the gear was broken and not repaired. No main building /lobby bar to enjoy proper late evening in unless you go to noice feelers pool bar .They have one small bar(I call it take away booth ) serving couple hot drinks ,soft machine drinks and water . Rooms are clean ,but dated(not that this was super important for me).Main thing there is no kettle in the room (I’m keen health/fitness goer and need my evening and morning hot water).Safe is €2 a day(even though I wasn’t aware of that and locked my stuff in and couldn’t remove until I was told payment required;no sign or note to say safe is not free). Food :this hotel doesn’t serve food on the level of others 5* hotels(I’m not talking ultra inclusive hotels here) in Turkey .Presentation non existent ,no special nights with food nicely prepared in style in front of you .Choice is 50% less than normal with poorly displayed,but in general you won’t get hungry. Main disappointment for me Is breakfast.I’m keen Turkish omelet person and simply they don’t do it well at all.Prepare some generic tasteless ones and just leave in common tray.Also they not do them daily. No fresh juices or Ice creams available unless you pay separately .Disgusting coffee and you won’t get anything else in terms of proper coffee machines,so if you keen coffee addict you will be highly disappointed. Shocking concept ! Doesn’t have that 5* feel service you get in all other resorts /hotels (I traveled a lot to Turkey in my 10years ). Most disgusting thing done on hotel part (to safe money obviously )that they give you only 1 physical key for the room that attached to plastics board for electrics activation in your room.There is no way you can charge your gadgets while you away from the room.On your return your room will be always hot .Key can’t be removed as it’s welded to the ring (unless you brake it) .Imagine room with two + people and only one key!! This is so low! Pool Bar always crowded serving some nasty smelling alcohol (I’m not drinker ,so didn’t bother me ).Animation is not existent in my opinion (even though I wasn’t looking for much ) ,but it looks very empty and uninspiring. Hotel have areas designated for Turkish tea/coffee and that what actually made for me for the rest of hotel. Beach area ok ,but nothing to shout about .Sea for me was good as always . It’s primarily family hotel with mix of Eastern and Western Europe guests . .Please read negative reviews as they definitely tell a true story for this hotel. Verdict : 3* only and not worth £1300(assume for 2 people it would be ~£1800) I paid(solo traveler) for 8 days stay .ONTheBeach UK holiday provider should remove this hotel from 5 advertising in my opinion .So misleading!

“Not a 5*”

To be fair , I start with the positive bits. Large grounds, nice gardens. On a beach. Food not great very samey . The biggest problem is with the actual restaurant itself. It's not well run.

To be fair , I start with the positive bits. Large grounds, nice gardens. On a beach. Food not great very samey . The biggest problem is with the actual restaurant itself. It's not well run. Food not kept at correct temperatures. Very few staff. Tables left dirty for a.long time. Too busy for the chosen available.capacity. No.drinks.available at dinner. The only bar after 5pm.is at the main pool Even though there are physical bars in relax.pool on the beach and in the pleasant air conditioned reception. The hotel has chosen to have only 1.operating usually with only 1 bar person.leading to long queues and no plastic glasses.( actual glassware is nowhere to be found). Usually they will serve beer in a paper cup! At the same.time claiming to.be 5*. Hotel ok as a 3*
