Side
This charming apartment hotel is situated in the coastal city of Side, just a five minute stroll from the sea and within easy reach of the resort town's shops, cafes and restaurants. Side, which means ‘pomegranate,' is an ancient Mediterranean city dating back to the Hittite period, thus offering a rich history and a plethora of ancient ruins throughout the region, including remarkable castles and city walls, beautiful Roman temples and amphitheatres. The hotel's 85 apartments are air-conditioned and spacious with two bedrooms, sitting area, kitchen, and balcony overlooking the hotel gardens and pools. Guests may lounge by one of the two sparkling outdoor pools or relax in the Turkish baths, while younger guests can play in two children's pools, kid's club, or the playground. There is also a shuttle service to the nearby sandy beach. This hotel is the perfect place for families to enjoy a relaxing holiday in the warm Mediterranean sunshine.

Another Lovely Stay at Sunlight Garden Hotel!
Great location Yet again, we’ve had a lovely stay at Sunlight Garden Hotel! The staff are wonderful, friendly, and always willing to help in any situation, making you feel welcome throughout your stay.
Our room was cleaned every day, and fresh towels were provided regularly. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed, with great entertainment. The entertainment team do their very best to involve everyone who wants to take part, making sure everyone has a chance to join in and enjoy themselves.
Another fantastic stay, and we look forward to returning again! Highly recommended. ☀️😊
Great - last minute booking
Great Hotel We’ve just stayed here for 9 nights as a couple and absolutely loved it - for the price we paid we really cant complain.
Arrived early hours of the morning, the security guard was there to check us in no messing and we headed straight to bed.
Food - fabulous, plenty of choice, fresh and never repetitive ( the only down side was no fresh milk but we just went to the supermarket and bought it very cheap and stored it in the fridge in the room)
Room - spacious clean and the cleaner came in everyday to change the bins, drop off fresh towels and the sheets were changed every other day.
Pool - there’s 2, plenty of sun beds however had to get up early to get a bed that stayed in the sun all day ( but that’s just my own personal preference) there’s plenty of parasols too.
Entertainment - we didn’t stay in at night time so didn’t watch it however there was something on most nights.
Location - 10 minute walk to the beach there is a section for the hotel however the guy on the beach watches you like a hawk and doesn’t allow you to take your own food or drinks ( was 200 lira for a coke and 300 for a beer and food was about 600 lira for a basic toastie and chips) we didn’t mind paying it as the hotel was such a reasonable price.
Few slight niggles
- shower wasn’t very powerful
- No jam or pastries at breakfast ( I bought a jar of jam for about a quid so no big deal
- no waiter service for drinks at meal times
For the time of year and price we paid we were very pleasantly surprised.
