Hello! I stayed at hotel with a friend and her daughter from August 22 to August 30. I want to thank you for the wonderful reception and rest. The staff is very attentive and polite. Especially the girl who works in the lobby bar named Guldan! Guldan is the sweetest, most polite and smiling bartender I've ever met in my life!I will definitely return to your hotel! Best regards, Maxim.
Bad and rude
As a female of a certain age I am usually caught short, so I thought I would ask this hotel to quickly run in and use there facilities, but the lady security guard set a rude flat NO, felt humiliated by this hotel and I would never recommend staying here ever

Family vacation
We were very happy there. The hotel was nice and clean, the pool was good, room service nice, good meal, nice sea. The slides were fun. They had tennis…
There were minor issues - they could change the towel used for the beach every second day. The wifi was very bad - did not work in the room but we solved it with Airalo.
Overall very nice experience, we would come back.

Amazing hotel
We had an amazing holiday here. The Hotel is beautiful, extra clean, plenty of food choices even for the picky eaters. Also the beach bar was super nice, the team is also very cute. The only complaint I have was the wifi, it doesnt work in the rooms, that made my stay uncomfortable as I needed to pay a lot of money for data in my country. Special thanks to the Reception Team, and Erkan who was absolutely amazing!😍
