We stayed at the holiday village from 4th-11th September 2023. Having travelled all over the world but never Turkey this was one of those last minute choices - but what a choice it was. From arrival at the hotel to check in, immediately, any thought or horror story you read about Turkey holidays went out the window. Reception Staff and welcoming porters, friendly, informative and nothing was too much trouble. Directed to our room, the short journey from reception tells you of the quality you are to receive ... the village grounds are immaculate. Arrival at the room, perfect! Just as described, clean, full of information, and a personal touch left from the maid Meryem, welcoming us for the week. Incidentally she was our maid for the week, and visited daily to clean the room and change the linen, top us up with bottled water - a great service. As mentioned, the grounds are spotless, the pools pristine, water slides are awesome fun, and the activities available are pretty endless, both day and night - worth noting though, the areas around the pool sides are extremely slippy when wet. Entertainment staff work tirelessly, day and night, and there is always something to do, take part in for everyone from the smallest to the adults. The true highlight of the stay however, much against some of the reviews you read was the food. You read many bad reviews about food at hotels in Turkey, but honestly, to fault the food here, you have issues. Having travelled all over the world, the quality, variety and sheer volume of food on offer here is astounding. Breakfast dinner and evening meal, freshly cooked food, in such variety and volume it was impossible to try it all. Themed nights in the restaurant, Turkish night - wonderful, Asian Night - Superb, but even on these nights there was plenty to please those who had no interest in eating something new. The restaurant has so many staff working at once, it is astounding. These work so hard from the start to end of each service serving, cleaning and continually chasing the needs of the guests. If something is dropped on the floor, it is seconds before someone appears and cleans - most impressive. The lunch restaurant / snack bar situated between the pools equally as impressive - vast choice for all, and everything the same high standards. Bars are situated in various locations, so wherever you are on the complex, there is always one nearby and again the staff are first class, efficient and this keeps the queues to a minimum. The night time bar waiters in the Activity bar, what a superb bunch of gents too. Couldn't do enough for you and they ensure your glass never sits empty for many minutes. For this service we tipped them well, and as the week progressed, the service just got better ;) All in all, an absolutely faultless venue, and a place we will happily return to many times in the future. Our children adored it just as we did. In all honestly, those who leave poor reviews here, clearly would be better suite
