Review of barut 10/10
Me and my family loved it! We Got new friends, but what was especially amazing about Barut is the activity leaders and the workers. Me and my brother are still in touch with Yagmur and Vladimir(activity leaders). 10/10 experience.
Great hotel! Not the nicest location
We stayed 9 nights, arriving late on the Saturday. The room was one of the best we have stayed in! The hotel is compact and easy to navigate. AI is AI, the food was ok - not the best I’ve had but a lot of choice. Drinks were good - I’m now an iced coffee convert and partial to a baby Guiness - the other half is addicted to PS martinis 😂. The A la carte Olea was really really good. Never an issue with getting sunbeds and no silliness with people reserving at stupidoclock.. The biggest issue was the hotel isn’t on the beach and you have to get a minibus over - they are every 30 minutes. It’s a 10 minutes walk but you are warned about packs of aggressive dogs living in the sand dunes - so not great. I did see them a couple of times and was glad it was at a distance. The beach was good though and the beach bar was great for snacks. The 2nd issue for us where the hotel is situated, it’s not the nicest walk to the old town, along a busy dual carriageway, not the nicest area. By the end of the holiday we had it sussed and would do a daily walk to the harbour and visit to Dream Cafe for a Guiness 😍 If you want to sit by the pool or beach and chill, this is perfect! For me I don’t mind a walk, but like a prettier walk - i can’t knock this place for value and the staff, all were superb! 6 days in and we discovered that you can do lunch without a reservation at the Olea - a much better experience - highly recommend! A couple of standout staff members: Nisa Ramazan
We had 2 evening meals at Olea - 10/10 One at Fely which was shocking 3.5/10 tough steak, grim. Shame because the one we wanted and looked forward to was the Fely.
So in summary a really good hotel! I would return if it was the other side of town as that’s a much nicer walk into the old town. I still gave 5 stars because the hotel is fab!

Can't wait to come back!!! Amazing food
I don't normally write reviews but I had to make sure people know how good this place is. First holiday with our nearly 1 year old and I can't wait to go back next year already. Here are a few things that we loved about Barut goia.
The rooms were perfect for a baby as we have our separate space when he went to sleep but we want to chill for a little while
All the staff were incredible and kind, didn't make us feel bad for our little one making a lot of noise or mess
Launderette free to use, just bring you own detergent. Much needed with kids
Inflatables can be filled up for free at the shops
Great entertainment, especially the kids disco even if it was a bit late
The chef made food specifically for our baby on order if we couldn't find anything including boiled veg and grilled fish or chicken. It was served beautiful. One day they even boiled his baby pasta for us
Have al carte lunch at olea restaurants everyday was great, the chicken shish was delicious
The 1 in 3 days evening al carte was great, but avoid the steak at fely restaurant
Loved the pools
Loved being close to Side town centre
The coffee shop included was great with delicious cakes and coffees
The waffles are Jos bar we're divine and they even had sandwiches to take out if we were not going to be back for lunch time
Only thing we found hard were the dinner started quite late for our babies preferred dinner and bed time
Perfect first family holiday
We've had a fantastic stay at Barut Goia. I think everyone coming into this hotel and has done some research knows it's a bit further out from Side town and there's a bus to the beach. The bus ride is so quick and the beach is great with towels available there so no need to cart any across. There's a beach bar/restaurant for lunch which was great and toilet/shower facilities as well. As part of the all inclusive we could not fault it. We were based on the 'noisy' side which just meant they play music by the pool but it wasn't too loud and had a good mix of music. The good morning song is a banger and set us up for the day! Never had an issue with sunbeds - maybe that's the time of year but even by 9/10am there were still loads of sunbeds to choose from. Loads of fridges of cold water around so you could grab them whenever. The toddler pool was perfect for our 3 almost 4 year old to splash about on her own (with supervision) and the main pool with it's gentle slope was great for building her confidence swimming. We even went down some of the slides. The animation team was brilliant, encouraging but not pushy and everyone who joined in seemed to be having a good time. We didn't use much of kids club but the hotel is well set up for families and our daughter enjoyed the mask making. We never went to mini disco as it was too late for her after spending all of her waking day in the pool she was exhausted. Food was delicious, never had an issue with anything to eat and the kids buffet area was good for my daughter to put food onto her own plate so she felt more grown up. Yes only 3 flavours of ice cream but basically unlimited and good quality. The gym is air-conditioned and I managed a couple of runs on the treadmill no issues there. Water and towels provided. The staff were incredible especially with my daughter they treated her like a princess and were so friendly. Definitely a family friendly hotel. I would 100% recommend

Good experience
Great family holiday at Barut GOIA
We had a wonderful stay at Barut GOIA and really enjoyed the hotel. The atmosphere was great, the staff were friendly and helpful, and there was plenty of entertainment for both adults and children.
A special thank you to the entertainment team, especially Vladimir. He was very energetic, friendly and professional, and we really enjoyed his shows. He definitely knows how to create a great atmosphere and make the evenings more enjoyable.
Our child also spent a lot of time at the mini club and really enjoyed it. A special mention to Yagmur, who was very kind, caring and attentive. Our child felt comfortable with her and really enjoyed spending time at the mini club. It was very nice for us as parents to see our child having such a good time and being happy there.
Overall, we had a great family holiday at Barut GOIA. Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so enjoyable. We would be happy to come back again!
