The views at Orka are breathtaking. The staff are incredible and the hotel is fantastic. Just book it! First time in Turkey! We will definitely be back. Group of 7 girls( loose term) We travel annually to different countries but this hotel has stopped us in our tracks.
We booked sea view and wow! The hotel is right on the beach plenty of sunbeds, great choice of drinks from the beach bar. We also got overly excited when the ice creams were handed out in the afternoon. Crystal clear waters to top it off. Special shout out to our friend Sakir and all the guys on the bar. We tried all three a La carte restaurants. The Turkish was the most popular. The waiters Mertcan( did not stop) and Mehmet were incredible the food was great. They arranged a gorgeous cake for our friend’s Birthday. Nothing was too much trouble. Try the Turkish meatballs. The Chinese was my favourite, tasty food run by a lovely chap called Jimmy. However the highlight for all of us was the Italian mainly for the entertainment! Namely Fikri the waiter! Now I’m not sure where they found him but he is an absolute treasure. We cried laughing all night( think Manuel faulty Towers) I wonder should he be on the entertainment team . Beautiful setting and a night to remember. Also met a wild Boar on the beach that night! Shout out to icon club. Go it’s a fab beach club vibes, great tunes and have a dance with Jimmy from the ents team. Also search out Kevin ( Heavon) crazy member of the wants team. Both work super hard.
The main restaurant is also great. The team are so hard working. Gemil , our Jimmy looked after us so well. The team In there work dawn til dust. Ibrahim, Baruk so many I can’t name them all, under the watchful eye of Bilal. A super gentleman who really made sure our stay was extra special.
Icmeler is about 15 mins walk and from there try and get a water taxi to Turunc. Turn left off the taxi and there is a lovely restaurant serving lunch with a pool area and beach called z villas.
We used the hotel transfer. Great five seater. Great competitive price. Just. Contact the hotel and they sort it out. Saves all the stops with the coaches.
We will definitely be back. Thanks to everyone from house keeping to bar staff to entertainment staff. Who knew Turkey was going to be so amazing
Room lovely, steps need lighting can be dangerous at night. Food repetitive not much English breakfast choice. Staff Mücahit, Keziban, Kwiz and Aisleule all friendly looked after us.Mucahit went beyond to make us feel special credit to the hotel. Entertainment great saw the micheal dancers
Every morning at 11am there is a yoga session on the pier hosted by “Kwiz”, very nice and relaxing and a great way to start the day at the beach.
Holiday at Orka Lotus Beach! We are still here enjoying our holiday at Orka Lotus Beach, staying in room 3403, and we just couldn't wait until we got home to write this review! What an absolutely brilliant holiday we are having! Everything has been wonderful, and we cannot praise this hotel enough. The animation team are absolutely fantastic! They work incredibly hard, are so friendly, full of energy and enthusiasm, and really make the holiday special. They are a credit to the hotel and deserve a huge thank you for everything they do. The food is excellent, with a fantastic selection and something for everyone. We are thoroughly enjoying every meal. Our room maid who looks after room 3403 is wonderful. She does an amazing job keeping our room spotlessly clean and comfortable. Her hard work certainly doesn't go unnoticed, and we really appreciate everything she does. The beach is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views and lovely surroundings. It's the perfect place to relax and soak up the Turkish sunshine. We are still here and already don't want to leave! That says everything about how much we are enjoying ourselves. A huge thank you to everyone at Orka Lotus Beach for making our holiday so special, particularly the incredible animation team and our lovely room maid. We would highly recommend this hotel and would absolutely love to return! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5 stars!
