We love it at melissa gardens!
What can I say I absolutely love this place. We come every year. The first time, we came for the giod deals and stayed fir the staff and vibe! We feel completely safe and well looked after at MG. Its homely and so accommodating. The staff that always stand out are Yaz, Ahmet, mustafa, emir and kasim. They truly make the hotel what it is. The other staff can not be faulted either. Theyre always smiling and happy and cant do enough for you! Its our favourite place. Always going above and beyond to make sure guests are comfortable. Highly recommend if youre looking fir a comfortable, very friendly, clean and accomodating place to stay. Thank you all for another beautiful time 🫶
Dirty apartment
The place was filthy my apartment definitely hasnt seen a mop in months, went out and came back to find my door open and unlocked, not very interested on reception when i complained, paid extra to keep room until 4, maid hammering on the door at 3.45 to get in. Pool area was nice, drinks expensive. Room on a busy road and the curtains didnt take the light out so it was never fully dark
Best family holiday once again!🇹🇷☀️
I came to Melissa Garden for the 6th time on the 26th of June and have just returned home today. I can honestly say this hotel will always be my go to destination for the best holiday, we have even booked to go back in September for 10 nights too. Yes, this hotel is basic and isn’t going to be up to 5 star fancy resort standards - but the treatment from the staff and the cosy feel makes it 1000x better than any other hotel I’ve been to. The food is lovely, it may not be what everyone is into but there are plenty of lovely places available nearby also which the staff will recommend. The staff are absolutely phenomenal, the boys go above and beyond for you to make sure your stay is the best it can be - a special shoutout to Yaz, Ahmet, Emir, Yousaf, Mustafa (behind the bar) and the bosses Deniz & Mao🤍 I always feel like I’m returning home to my family when I arrive! But yes, rooms are basic but they are cleaned daily and have everything you need. Entertainment is always exciting, a new thing every night of the week. The pools are lovely, they are always clean and the area around them is beautiful (lots of greenery etc). I could go on for hours talking about how amazing it is to come here, but definitely don’t expect anything extravagant- as I said, it is basic and things might not be to everyone’s taste, but the staff and activities etc etc, truly make it special. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who asked for a chilled out holiday recommendation for a single person, a couple, families, elderly (anyone), because they cater to whatever needs you may have. See you all in September boys, missing you all already and thank you again for the wonderful time☀️🇹🇷
Enjoyable 2 weeks
Just come back from a very nice 2 week holiday, our room was spacious for a 1 bedroom apartment. Always kept clean by our maid. All the Staff are great but especially Emir ( 5☆ ) 😃 and Yas and his team. And sorry, can't remember his name, but he was the night porter and breakfast man. 😉.
We were half board, couldn't fault the food served. Breakfast was normal continental and 6ou could ask for, omelette, scrambled or fried egg, and pancakes. Evening meals, was nice to relax at a table a choose a meal from a menu. My only suggestion would be, give a wider choice of starter and desserts.
Overall, an enjoyable 2 weeks.

Most amazing time!!
We recently stayed at Melissa gardens as a family 13 for 8 nights and what an amazing time we had! That staff 💯 make this place more special. Ahmet, yaz, amir, mustafa and Joseph plus every other member of staff have been absolutely amazing and so much fun, nothing is ever too much. A special thank you to Ahmet for helping me get in contact to find my missing luggage, also for sorting out our jeep safari day trip, he even helped my daughter out with an hair issue (don’t use the hairdressers outside the hotel) Thank you to yaz for looking after us all week and always greeting us with the biggest smile and such a warm welcome he also makes the most amazing chateaubriand . We planned to eat out while visiting and ended up eating eating at the hotel every night because the food was so delicious and the atmosphere was second to none. Yes the rooms are basic but are sufficient enough. Pool, restaurant and bar areas were always clean and well maintained. We Honestly had the best time at Melissa gardens and can not fault this hotel and cannot wait to return in 2027.
