Belcehan Beach Hotel

Just returned from another fantastic time staying here. From beginning to end staff when more than helpful… shout out to Geoff at the bar…such a great bloke Rooms are good sizes, pool is perfect with plenty of sun lounges. Breakfast was fresh and delicious. Great location and so peaceful, worth every penny spent.

First arrival at Hotel : on arrival to the hotel at 0930 we were told no rooms are ready and we had to wait until around 1300, has this was a package holiday the hotel would have know which guests would be arriving and when, you would therefore assume they have rooms ready. We spent a few hours walking around the area and sat for food and drinks, once in the room it was clean and tidy.

ROOM: basic but clean. Small fridge that was ok for a few bottles of water and milk ect. Tv with 1 x film and 2 x news channels in English, air con that worked, hair dryer (partner said it wasn’t good) but she’d brought a spare anyway. Lower floor with small terrace looking out onto the pool area, 2 small chairs and a tiny table outside, WiFi was hit and miss in the room but was ok on the terrace. Bed wasn’t very comfy (hard mattress) but most places of this rating are the same. 1 sofa in the room which was nice and saves sitting on the bed all the time. The bathroom shower was decent with either a waterfall head or hand held option. Room summary: basic but good.

FOOD AREA: hotel is b&b, the breakfast is standard Turkish lay out, salad / cold meats / cheese ect. There isn’t much hot choice but they do make omelettes / eggs fresh if you request them. There is cereals out but the milk is in cartons and just left on the side (not refrigerated or cold).

POOL: very nice clean pool area. Plenty of sun beds and no matter what time we went out during the day there was sun-beds available. The hotel doesn’t let people reserve them before 0700, after this time there’s the regular “reservers” putting towels on but only a few and really there was need to do this. The pool area is kept very clean at all times. Music is played during the day and does become repetitive.

STAFF: the regular serving staff (3 guys and 1 girl) were very nice, polite and worked all day everyday from starting at breakfast then working around the pool and bar for the rest of the day.

One of the main issues was the room cleaners. You have a digital button to show if you want your room cleaned or not each day. We set this to “clean” every morning but the cleaners only came in twice during the 7 days, on e they didn’t empty the waste bin and the 2nd time didn’t leave clean towels. So not really sure what they did.

SUMMARY: nice little hotel that was well worth the money paid. Improvement needed with room cleaning team and check in options when arriving outside usual check in times. We’ve stayed in 4 different hotels in Olu Deniz and would return here again.

We stayed earlier in the month. Overall impressed with the hotel however there were a couple of areas that need improvement. The pool was generally quiet with great staff who come round and check on you periodically. Drinks were great and reasonably priced too - would definitely recommend the strawberry daiquiri (ask for a spoon).

Location is great - quiet at night but only a minutes walk from the main restaurant and bar area.

Rooms are relatively basic but do the job. The beds are rock hard - I tend to sleep on my side and started to get swelling and bruising on my hips from where my hip bones were on the mattress. Air con is great and the rooms are cleaned and towels changed daily. I saw reviews saying don’t get a bottom floor room but we had one and didn’t have any issues with it (we weren’t directly next to the pool though).

Breakfast was OK - my partner loves a full English so was disappointed there was no meat at breakfast however they do have an egg, omelet and pancake station so that sufficed.

Would maybe stay again however would definitely stay again if the mattress is updated to something softer.
