- Miramare Beach

This pleasant hotel is situated just outside of Side, only five kilometres from the old town centre and beautiful Roman ruins, including a Temple of Apollo and amphitheatre. A long stretch of sandy beach dotted with sun loungers and parasols is just steps from the hotel, and guests can spend lazy afternoons lounging in the sun by the outdoor pool, which features three waterslides and a separate children's pool. The onsite spa offers rest and relaxation with its services including massages, Turkish bath, and sauna, while the kids' club provides entertainment for children ages 4 to 12 as well as a ‘mini-disco' in the evenings. The hotel also offers an animation programme and volleyball, tennis and basketball courts for guest leisure. Whether visiting Side for a fun-filled family holiday or a couple's relaxing weekend away, this hotel provides all the services and facilities needs to enjoy a carefree stay.
Great hotel, fantastic food, the staff are all so nice. Mustafa from the animation team included us in boccia and volleyball, he was very good with the pool games
The hotel is beautiful and the staff are great and Mustafa from animation has been so welcoming and always tries very hard with all guests a great asset to the team.
Had an amazing time. The hotel was amazing as we're the staff, especially hotel entertainment staff - Tarik and friends. Hospitality was fantastic. Plenty of things to do for all ages. Had a lovely relaxing family holiday.
Mufasa and Tarik a part of the entertainment team helped me fit in right away and made every volleyball game an incredible experience so massive thanks to them from Charlie
We had an amazing all-inclusive holiday at Miramare Beach in Side and completely understand why so many people rate it so highly.
One of the first things we noticed was how stylish and well looked after the hotel is. The rooms, restaurants, bars and shared areas are all spotless, modern and finished to a high standard. The gardens are beautifully maintained too, with plenty of palm trees and greenery that give the whole resort a really relaxing, tropical atmosphere.
The food was consistently good, with plenty of choice and different themed nights that stopped it becoming repetitive. The branded drinks were a nice bonus, and having a mixologist making cocktails definitely added to the experience. We also appreciated the little extras like the water refill stations, the patisserie, and the beach parties, which were always good fun. The gym deserves a mention as well—it has everything you need and was never overly busy while we were there.
The entertainment team really made our holiday. A huge thank you to Posha, Mustafa and Tarik, who were absolute standouts from start to finish. I must mention Mustafa as being an amazing magician aswell with his tricks that confused me. They worked incredibly hard every day, got everyone involved and created such a friendly atmosphere around the hotel. They deserve loads of credit because they genuinely made a difference to our stay. The daily beach volleyball became one of the highlights of each day. The only thing I’d suggest improving would be the evening singers, who were a little too relaxed for our taste.
The location is another big plus. The hotel sits right by the beach, there’s no shortage of shops nearby (including plenty selling designer-inspired goods), and the historic town of Side is only a short journey away. Walking around the harbour is lovely, and the Roman ruins are definitely worth taking the time to explore.
A couple of things future guests should know: there are quite a few families with young children, so the hotel has a lively atmosphere during the day, although there are still plenty of peaceful areas to unwind. During our stay, the majority of guests—probably around 80%—were German, which makes sense given the hotel’s ownership. Occasionally there was a slight language barrier with some bar and restaurant staff, but everyone was always polite, welcoming and happy to help.
The weather was incredibly hot while we were there, regularly exceeding 40°C with high humidity, so make sure you come prepared if you’re visiting in the middle of summer.
Overall, we had a fantastic experience. The staff genuinely care about making sure guests enjoy their holiday, and that really shows. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back and would happily recommend Miramare Beach to anyone considering staying here.
