Katastrophe

Nie mehr in dieses Hotel! Gefühlt alle Kettenraucher Deutschlands in den Tagen dort gewesen als wir da waren! Morgens um 6.00 Uhr zog der Qualm vom Balkon ins Zimmer, beim Frühstück das Gleiche, keine vernünftige Trennung der Raucher und Nichtraucher! Am Strand sind wir umgezogen, mehrmals, weil es einfach nicht auszuhalten war! Getränke werden alle gepuncht, Cola schmeckt scheußlich, der Wein geht gar nicht , das Bier , Tuborg furchtbar! Nie wieder dieses Hotel!

Kommen bestimmt wieder. Das hotel kann man weiterempfehlen

Wir waren Ende Mai bis 12.6.25 im Defne Dream. Faszinierende Gartenanlage in Hanglage. Der Strand sehr groß und sauber. Die Zimmer etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Ein frischer Anstrich könnte helfen. Essen und Service sehr gut. Mein Mann hat täglich beim Boggia mitgemacht, am Abend meist das gleiche. Manche Musik furchtbar. Wir fühlten uns wohl ,vorallem weil alle sehr freundlich sind.

Krásná dovolená

V hotelu jsme strávili dva týdny a užili jsme si to. Úklid probíhal každý den mimo čtvrtka. Denně doplňovali láhev perlivé a neperlivé vody. Personál milý a ochotný. Co se nám líbilo, že v restauraci vám u první návštěvy přidělí stůl , který je váš po celou dobu dovolené. Jídlo výborné a výběr dostačující. Areál krásný a udržovaný. Pláž nejkrásnější široko daleko, hlavně čisto. A za nás super slunečníky, žádné plachty, kde máte lehátko vedle lehátka. Za nás hotel určitě doporučujeme.

not bad, not great

we were in this hotel for a week as a family. the transfer from the airport takes about 1 hour. on the way back to the airport, we left 4 hours before the flight. the hotel is in a beautiful garden, not in a busy location. it is old but nice. the food is very tasty and varied. several bars in the area. the big disadvantage is that there is no bar on the beach. it is necessary to walk up the stairs to the bar and to the main restaurant for lunch. drinks are poured into glasses, water bottles are missing (they are only replenished daily in the room). if you want to take a bottle of water to the beach, they won't give it to you in any bar. the second disadvantage is that the hotel staff only speaks German, 90% of the hotel's clients are German. The staff does not speak English. the room has a mini fridge and safe for free. beautiful, wide beach, parasols, sunbeds and beach towels available free of charge. in the vicinity of the hotel (approx. 10 minutes on foot) many shopping opportunities and a Migros supermarket. a dolmus to the antique side costs €1.50, a dolmus to the center (to the mall of side, for example) costs €1. there is a mini club for children, a playground and a children's pool. Wi-Fi is free of charge in the entire hotel area and on the beach. there is no wifi in the room. overall impression 8/10, I would return to this hotel, but it also has minuses.

Pleasant hotel with first class service - great value for money

Have stayed in this hotel for 12 days in September 2023. The hotel is very well located just 1 hr. transfer from ANT airport, at a beautiful sandy beach with rich a rich garden full of blooming trees and ceramic decorations. With possibility to settle under the palm trees in shadow or at the covered deckchairs on the beach with an attentive life-guard offering sport activities and bringing drinks from the bar above the beach any time. The rooms are spacious, although fitted with older furniture, cleaned immaculately with minibars providing 2 big bottles of water supplied every day, The food is fresh and variable, lot of fruit- tables are allocated for the whole stay according to room number- with an allocated waiter for each section who after 3 days knows all about your tastes and needs Possibility to order Lactose-free diet in advance online. Clean pool with a kids pool, bars and wifi in all common areas, pleasant staff - although speaking mainly German- 90 % of the guest are German The only negative is very frequent smoking on the beach - which however is not the hotels fault.
