We went as a family of four with two kids, aged 11 and 14. We were very lucky with the weather most days 30°, and still warm enough in the evenings to sit out in T-shirts. The sea was lovely and warm and we took goggles so you could see lots of fish not far from the beach. The hotel is fantastic, although absolutely huge there are lots of staff who were all very attentive. The food was mostly amazing. There is plenty of variety every night with a different theme. We used our free ticket for the a la carte restaurants one evening, but to be fair there isn’t much choice so would’ve preferred the buffet anyway. The photos of waterslides are actually of the neighbouring hotel, but they seemed to be linked and we used them every day without any trouble. Being end of season, there were a couple of other a la carte restaurants that were closed, but we didn’t know what we were missing, so it was no problem. All of the waiting staff were amazing, but we have to make special mention of Ugur who was incredibly attentive and worked unbelievably hard. The rooms were spotless thanks to the cleaning staff who deserve a mention as well. The only thing stopping this hotel being five-star is the quality of drinks as with most all-inclusive. These were very hit and miss. There are three or four different bars around the hotel with mostly the same menu of drinks, but we very rarely had two that tasted the same, and There are some peculiar flavours that you can’t quite put your finger on. We walked the short distance to the nearby bazaar, but wouldn’t particular recommend it unless you just want cheap counterfeit clothes. One excursion that was worthwhile was a three in one white water rafting, buggy ride and zip line about an hour minivan drive away organised through Tripadvisor . There really isn’t anywhere else nearby as far as we can tell that you would want to walk to or get a taxi, but for a week in the Sun with everything looked after for you we would definitely recommend this hotel.
