Megasaray Club Belek

What an excellent hotel. This hotel has everything we wanted for total relaxation. We arrived in the small hours and were pleased to find that from 10pm until 7am when the main buffet opens, there is an area providing snacks like pizza and drinks. So effectively you can eat or drink any time 24 hours. The buffet was outstanding, there was so much choice and such nice surprises. For example fresh salmon on the breakfast buffet, fruits, egg station, soups, a huge selection of olives to try out, lots of cooked choices at every meal and an outside seating area if you didn't want to be indoors with aircon. As I am vegetarian/avoiding wheat, I asked for help with choices, most of the main choices are labelled for dietary needs and I was invited to request anything I wanted made for me - I had a gluten free pizza and a gluten free pasta made for me. There was plenty of choice throughout the week and even a gluten free area with bread/cakes/desserts. The salads were on the buffet for every meal, really good with fresh herbs, fruit and veg, cheeses and meats. There is a huge cake and bread area at every meal too. There are themed restaurants but we didn't try them as the buffet had so much on offer.
The grounds are well landscaped, clean and easy access for disabled (lifts to rooms). The ampitheatre offers very good entertainment (a 'circus' of acrobats and contortionists was a nice surprise). It was so nice to have open air bars around the pools with music/band playing - and especially nice to have a quiet bar at the pier open at night until late.
We had a nice room with balcony in block K which got afternoon sun, a well stocked fridge, powerful hot shower and daily cleaning. Plenty of storage and mirrors/sockets/hairdryer/tv. We had a cabana for a day - it was a lovely experience with a safe, fridge, service of fruit, food and drink from the all inclusive. We don't drink champagne so declined but were offered as complimentary).
Theres a very good coffee 'shop' which is part of the AI package, it has an outside seating area, open during the evening with candlelit tables - such a nice touch. The pools are clean and safe. We liked the Relax Pool best although some folk did hog the sunbeds and not use them all day until late afternoon! The main pool had activities, we joined in some water games and also the pool foam party which was fun and well organised (safe for all). There is another large pool with a huge bar which we also enjoyed. We were impressed that there were life guards on duty at the two main pools and on the beach. The beach was crowded and sunbeds were hard to find unless you went early morning. I think some people put down towels and didn't use the sunbeds, maybe this could be monitored. The sea was calm and safe for children. The hotel has its own waterpark area with slides, a games room and kids club - we didn't experience these but could see others were enjoying themselves . We took a 10 minute bus ride to the nearest town for souvenirs although the hotel has adequate shops we wanted to explore, there is very little outside but everything you could possibly want is on hand within the hotel complex. It is an unusual and pleasant surprise to find brand name drinks on offer in an all inclusive and we enjoyed some nice cocktails. Also were surprised to find brand name icecreams in a help yourself freezer at the pool and a lady cycling round with a chilled branded icecream service (ie. cornetto). Lots of fridges around the hotel with help yourself bottles of water access 24 hours. Only one towel station which is at the beach front - could do with an additional towel station near the pools. My husband invented his own cocktail: he's called it the Megasaray Nicespresso: made with espresso coffee/milk/kalua/coffee liquer ice and a scoop of icecream! The staff are all very friendly and attentive, especially the animation team, guest relations (to pass on dietary needs, print boarding passes, give general info).
To sum up, there's something here for everyone and Megasaray Belek exceeded our expectations, we would love to return.

We had a lovely holiday, food was amazing, entertainment was good and staff was friendly. Loads to do for children

We spent a wonderful week at Megasaray. The resort has everything you need. Abundance of food, different themes every night and snack bars in the day. The entertainment was excellent and had something for everyone throughout the day and evenings. The facilities ( pools, spa, beach and water sports) were great. All the staff were so friendly and helpful..highly recommend and would definitely go back.
