TripAdvisor Review
Turkey, Europe
Side

This family-friendly, modern resort is located just a few steps from a beautiful, fine sandy beach and the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea in the popular holiday region of the Turkish Riviera. It offers delightful landscaped gardens, two large pools with water slides and an excellent spa area. The historic city of Side is just a short drive away, the international airport of Antalya about 55 km.

TripAdvisor Review
Worst hotel service and rooms ever! NEVER AGAIN!

Worst hotel and customer service I’ve ever experienced.

I’ve been coming to Turkey for over 10 years, and I’ve never had such a disappointing experience.

We booked a standard room for three people, so you would expect it to be suitable for three guests. Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth. The room is unbelievably small. There is barely enough space to walk around the beds, and we have to change our clothes while standing on the bed because there is simply no room.

Our son’s bed is nothing more than a wooden board with a very thin mattress on top. It collapses every time he sits or lies down. To make things even worse, we have to climb over his bed just to reach the tiny balcony, which is far too small for three people to sit on together.

There isn’t even enough space for our suitcases. The bedding is uncomfortable, and the double bed is extremely hard.

The most disappointing part is the hotel’s attitude. We even offered to pay extra for a larger room, but they refused. No alternative room, no refund, no solution. Every day they tell us to speak to the manager at 10:00 a.m., and every day we hear the same answer: “Sorry, we can’t do anything.”

This is by far the worst customer service I’ve experienced. We will never stay here again, and I sincerely hope other travelers read this review before booking. Save yourself the disappointment and choose another hotel. What a shame.

In dutch:

Slechtste hotel en klantenservice die we ooit hebben meegemaakt.

We komen al meer dan 10 jaar in Turkije en hebben nog nooit zo’n teleurstellende ervaring gehad.

We hebben een standaardkamer voor drie personen geboekt. Je mag dan verwachten dat deze geschikt is voor drie gasten, maar niets is minder waar. De kamer is ongelooflijk klein. Er is nauwelijks ruimte om langs de bedden te lopen en we moeten ons omkleden terwijl we op het bed staan, omdat er simpelweg geen ruimte is.

Het bed van onze zoon is niets meer dan een houten plaat met een heel dun matras erop. Het zakt telkens in zodra hij erop gaat zitten of liggen. Alsof dat nog niet erg genoeg is, moeten we over zijn bed heen klimmen om het piepkleine balkon te bereiken. Daar is bovendien niet eens ruimte om met drie personen te zitten.

Er is niet eens genoeg ruimte voor onze koffers. Het beddengoed is oncomfortabel en het tweepersoonsbed is ontzettend hard.

Het meest teleurstellende is echter de houding van het hotel. We hebben zelfs aangeboden om extra te betalen voor een grotere kamer, maar dat werd geweigerd. Geen andere kamer, geen terugbetaling en geen enkele oplossing. Elke dag wordt ons verteld dat we om 10.00 uur met de manager moeten spreken, en elke dag krijgen we hetzelfde antwoord: “Sorry, we kunnen niets doen.”

Dit is veruit de slechtste klantenservice die we ooit hebben meegemaakt. Wij zullen hier nooit meer terugkomen en hopen dat andere reizigers deze review lezen voordat ze boeken. Bespaar jezelf de teleurstelling en kies een ander hotel. Wat een enorme tegenvaller.

The best

One of the best hotels in turkey not to expensive and very good, it is busy but it's okej, the pool is good but I recommend the pool at the burger station not as busy, the highest water slide is super cool and nice, good view from the balcony. 💯

G.r.e.a.t

Hotel was renovated this year + new waterslides, pools, we had a Nice view from our Room to the poolside and garden. Garden was very beautiful and always tidy, animation programs were excelent. U Can choose from many types of food and cakes in the restaurant and beach too. Beach was always tidy, no crowded sunbeds, many shop right out from the hotel, you will be excited if you are shoppaholic like me . We had no problems with communication in english. Hotel IS ideal for families. Thank you ♥️

Not beachfront, not for english speakers unless speaks german or turkish

Absolutely no. They don't speak english for once, we been told that the hotel is for turkish and germans, and they come from 20 years, their behaviour towards people that speaks english was terrible. We had food poisoning unfortunately, we had to buy from pharmacy medicines, drinks disgusting. The shows not so great. Beach is 10 min walk at least . NOT BEACH FRONT .Never been able to get a sun lounge, people would throw one towel on 3 chairs and never show up or at least till 3pm . Absolutely terrible service. Room wasn’t properly clean and very small for 4 people. We had a terrible stay (10days) (14ppl) . I would not recommend this place.
