“A beautiful family holiday”

We visited this hotel at the end of the summer holidays, as a family of four (2 boys aged 13 and 8). i was a little apprehensive before going, having read some of the reviews, but i needn't have been.

We visited this hotel at the end of the summer holidays, as a family of four (2 boys aged 13 and 8). i was a little apprehensive before going, having read some of the reviews, but i needn't have been. We arrived at the hotel at about 1am, and we were all very tired. Originally there wasn't anybody at the desk, however they soon realised this and were very pro-active. The sign posted me and the children to an area were some drinks and snacks were available, whilst they helped my husband check in very quickly, and had our luggage sent to room pretty much immediately. We decided to upgrade our room in the inter-connecting family rooms, and very us this made a real big difference to our stay. Upon arrival I noticed straight away the hotel was immaculate and the room was beautiful and we had a great view of the pool. The hotel is stunning, and it would be quite easy to stay on site for the whole of your stay. The pool at this hotel is huge! And even though we was at the hotel in peak season it never seemed overcrowded. I noticed people have mentioned about sunbeds, we never got down to the pool before 11, and always manage to grab atleast two (which was fine because the boys didnt leave the pool). The water slides are a great fun addition that will keep the kids entertained for hours. The food at the hotel is plentiful, you will never be hungry at this resort, however for us, we did find it repetitive and bland. But this hotel is catering to the masses, and if your happy to venture out, this resort is not far at all from some lovely restaurants. We did visit the spa, and yes it is expensive, but its for added luxury, and we really enjoyed our experience at the spa. And if you haggle they do offer 'a deal'. The beach is beautiful, and offer lots of sea activities. And if you fancy a cheeky little photo shoot, the guys downstairs by the main restaurant do an amazing job. We have got some snaps that we can cherish for a lifetime. We did have to request for a mini fridge to be topped up a couple of times, and on one day for some unknown reason housekeeping took our duvet, and then it did take a while for them to bring one up to us. But other than that we had a great time at this hotel. And I would most definitely recommend it as family destination. Thank you Royal Dragon Hotel

“Food was good, good location but bad experience”

Hotel size is huge and no chance off getting a sunbed as they are gone by 7.30am. Lots of food choice but restaurants very big and hard to find each other. The kids club is awful as no ones looks after kids properly and cannot speak English. My child went there and was struggling to get on slides s… more

Hotel size is huge and no chance off getting a sunbed as they are gone by 7.30am. Lots of food choice but restaurants very big and hard to find each other. The kids club is awful as no ones looks after kids properly and cannot speak English. My child went there and was struggling to get on slides so I helped her, the gate was left open so kids could out so No Safety at all. One kid was hurt and lots of blood everywhere he was taken to hospital for stitches, took my child out after 30 minutes and no one called to see where she was or we had collected. Lots of noise in bedroom every night which was never resolved so hardly slept all week. complain to staff who say they will sort and then you never see them again. Would not go back.

“Spend your money elsewhere”

Hotel facilities were lovely, however food was not good, too much on offer and nothing done well.

Hotel facilities were lovely, however food was not good, too much on offer and nothing done well. Attitude of staff was disgraceful, especially at the pool bars, just slammed drinks onto counter and no conversation, like they didn’t want to be there. No properly run Kids club, inappropriate behaviour form a lifeguard witnessed on tick-tock (pulled a young boys shorts down and exposed his privates), didn’t feel safe letting children wonder around unattended, no rules with sun loungers, 3 times out towels were taken / moved and had to complaint o reception, they just bring out new beds and don’t deal with the perpetrators, terrible WiFi, not worth the money paid. TUI also terrible, I was advised as the hotel were meeting their service levels, they wouldn’t offer any form of compensation. I’m obviously not the only one that’s had a bad experience. Spend your money else where, I’ve heard about so many nicer hotels in Turkey.
