Cool ✌️
My stay at this hotel was excellent. It’s not cheap, but definitely worth the price. I stayed for one week in a family room with key card access. The bathroom was very spacious and clean, with no problems at all, good water pressure, hot water, and everything worked perfectly. There was air conditioning in both rooms, separated by a door. The balcony was small but nice, with a view of the pool. The pool water in September was a bit cold, but I still swam for a couple of days.
I really liked the area by the sea, especially the small pier with the platform in the middle where we could go straight into the water. Having a bar and snack bar right there was a big plus. I also liked the idea of getting towels with a special card (very practical).
The food was great, varied, and different every day. There was always plenty of choice for everyone’s taste. The staff were very friendly, and the spa area and sauna were also very nice. We had to figure out by ourselves what a hamam was, and when we entered, we didn’t really know what to do, which turned into a funny experience. Maybe if someone had explained it better in English, we would have understood it more easily, just a small suggestion for improvement.
I didn’t use the TVs, but the lifts were big and easy to access. The room service was polite and discreet, just like all the hotel staff. The mattress was super comfortable, I even forgot to ask where I could buy one like it for home!
The beach was only two minutes away, very easy to reach, and the Wi-Fi worked great. There were daily events at the pier or the beach club; I’m not much of a dancer (especially since I was with my family, mostly people 50+), but the atmosphere was really nice. I’m sure it would have been even more fun with a group of friends.
The hotel is located next to a shopping center, a bazaar, and a beautiful mosque nearby that honestly gave me goosebumps, it was so impressive. There’s also a bus stop close by, and we took a trip to Alanya, which was lovely.
Overall, a very good stay, I really enjoyed it and would love to come back. Definitely recommend this hotel!
Review by Eduard P Bucharest, Romania
Extensive review - Calm and pleasant stay. Highly recommended if you want a calm atmosphere.
We upgraded to family room. Me and my wife had 2 rooms to ourselves. Added an image from the room balcony, we could see the entire pool area. Hotel was clean and the cleaner came daily. Also refilled the minifridge (except one day when we forgot the do not disturb on but that was 100% our fault). The "Do not distrub" and "Needs cleaning" notices are controlled from a swith in room which was super comfortable. The location of the hotel is also great. there were 2 outlet stores and a huge bazaar 5 minute walk away.
We enjoyed the beach, the water can be entered from ladders from pier or from the coast. Coast was mostly sandy with a meter or 2 of small rocks, definetly easy to get in/out.
Animation was more on the calm side (which was good for us) with disco and dj at the beach every night. They had some events for children but since we have none we didn't check them. On Sunday there was a movie night on the beach which was super chill. Pool area was always super calm and relaxing.
I also have to note that during our stay there were 6 kittens living on the hotel area. If you like cats thats a big plus. It was okay to feed them so we bought some snacks from the nearby grocery store for them.
Food was also great. Every day was a different menu. Even my wife who is a picky never went hungry. Hotel has additional snack bar and beach snack bar. They also had great alcohol selection (including champagne which a lot of other hotels don't have).
One of the reasons we chose this hotel because reviews said the staff doesn't speak Russian. They did however speak English and German. The visitors seemed to be mostly european and didn't have a lot of Russians (if any).
The staff was super friendly and welcoming. I would specially like to thank our waiter Bali during the evenings! We dined with him most of the nights and even before we started looking at food he already took our drink orders. I felt a sense on geniuine friendliness and humbleness from him. Bali, if you are reading this, sincire thank you from me and my family in Estonia!
I would rate the hotel as average.
I would rate the hotel as average. I’ll try to comment on my experience: my friend and I stayed there from October 9 to October 14, 2025. The food selection was average (compared to other hotels we visited at the same time, it doesn’t quite reach a 4-star level). We booked UAI, but it turned out that the staff, following management’s instructions, were serving equivalents of imported drinks instead of the originals. We definitely felt we overpaid and did not receive the quality we expected. There were no activities or animation, except for a DJ one evening 😉. In the lobby bar area and on the residential floors, dirty dishes were constantly left around — possibly due to a shortage of staff. The rooms were clean and maintained daily. I would not want to return there a second time and do not recommend it. — Aleksandras
Lovely relaxing stay
Lovely hotel i would say 4* nice rooms with nice touches, robes & slippers supplied. Drinks were the best never had to wait to be served. Spotless clean & plenty of sunbeds on the beach & pool. I would of given 5* but we had a issue with one of us is cealic. So needed gluten free & diary free. I did email the hotel in advance so was disappointed when on our 1st day . The member of staff who would deal with was her day off. The manager did try her very best & even asked our friend to write a list of items that she would like. Also everyday & meal times a chef would take her round the dining room & advise when was suitable for her to eat. So top marks for that. There is entertainment at the beach bar everyday except Sunday. Also the cakes were amazing

Nice but not deluxe
Blue Marlin Deluxe Spa & We are spening 14 nights at the Blue Marlin Deluxe. The biggest strength of this hotel is undoubtedly the staff. Every member of the team has been warm, polite, helpful and genuinely welcoming. The Turkish hospitality has been a real highlight of our stay and has made us feel relaxed and appreciated as guests. The hotel is also extremely clean and well maintained. The food has been consistently good, with a nice variety of dishes and plenty of choice throughout our stay. We did find our standard deluxe room smaller than expected for a two-week holiday. I would not call it deluxe at all.
However, we had an end-block room with a partial sea and pool view, on level 2 which is not high enough to see the sea and aliitle away from the full impact of pool view.
Guests who like more space may wish to consider upgrading to a larger room. The beach area was slightly underwhelming compared with our expectations, and the drinks and evening entertainment could be improved. They were acceptable but did not quite match the standards of the food and service. Having said that, when we reflected on the overall value of our holiday, we felt we had received value for money. Fourteen nights all-inclusive for two people at this price point is difficult to fault. We have particularly enjoyed being in Turkey, experiencing the different environment, culture and the kindness of the people. Overall, this is a very clean and welcoming hotel with excellent staff and good food.
It may not offer a luxury experience in every aspect, but for value for money we would happily recommend it to other looking respectable, budget friendly 2 week vacation.
