Istanbul Beach Hotel

The hotel was clean and staff friendly, our room was a basic corner room, but was sufficient, pool towels provided an room cleaned daily. The food & drink was basic, not the best variety but sufficient for a few days! (Disappointed no omelette for breakfast) The pool area was clean with decent sunbeds and umbrellas. There are shops near by with bargins to buy. What made the break great was the super friendly animation guys Sabir & Diyar, they work so hard entertaining throughout the day, morning dancing an water aerobics, darts in the afternoon an bingo. It was nice to have Diyar have some English speaking as all the other hotel guest were Russian an most the staff were not English speakers. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

My boyfriend and I stayed here in October and we were very happy and had an amazing time.

We were checked-in quickly by Hamza from Reception who was very polite, spoke excellent English and checked us in with no issues. He showed us to our room and gave us lots of information about the hotel schedules and the local area. Throughout our stay, Hamza was always so kind and helpful and said hello to us each time we walked past Reception.

We had a Large Standard room which was clean and a good size. The furniture was modern, and we had an amazing view from our balcony. The bathroom was a bit small, but the shower was modern and had good water pressure.

The pool area was always clean and tidy – there were lots of workers always tidying up and available for any queries. The pool was a good temp, we would go in everyday and the two waterslides were really fun too. There were always enough sunbeds around the pool. We also spent a few days on the beach which was a short walk out of the hotel (about 2-3 mins). There was loads of sunbeds with umbrellas at no additional cost. There was also an all-inclusive bar at the beach which was part of the hotel. They also offered burgers & chips and ice cream there at certain times of the day.

There wasn’t a great selection of food at the buffet, especially not at breakfast. The buffet area always looked clean, lots of workers always wiping surfaces and keeping things tidy. You can either sit in the restaurant which has an inside or outside, or can sit down by the pool near the bar. The all-inclusive bar closes at 10pm which is a bit annoying as we often found this too early, after 10pm you can pay for drinks but we never did as they were off-brand spirits. The beer on offer was Tuborg and had local spirits which did the job. Water is always available from the pool bar which was great.

The animation team was really friendly, we went out to a club with Diyar and the animation team. We paid 10 Euros each and got picked up from the hotel at 11:30pm and then picked up from the club at 2:30am. The price also included entry into the club. The shows at the hotel were aimed more at families which we were fine with as we knew this wasn’t an adults/couples hotel.

Overall, we had a really great time and loads of facilities at the hotel. For the low price we paid we were extremely happy. Thank you!!!

The hotel has a brach about 300 meters away. We always found sunbeds and umbrellas. The food was also good and the medium sized room we booked was about 27 square meters, large enough.
