Blue Dreams Resort & SPA

This is a large hotel with a large amount of land space and a nice private beach. There are lots of options where you can sun bathe, given the three different pools and two piers equipped with sun-beds. We went as a couple with no kids but we believe it’s definitely one of the best resorts if you’ve got kids as there are a wide range of activities for them including water slides and kids disco. The food options are quite good, though they may start to feel a bit repetitive if you’re staying for more than a week. The staff, however, truly stand out for their warmth and hospitality. A special thanks to Gökhan, the most caring, friendly and attentive guest relations staff member and Melike, the kindest and most caring nurse, for looking after me after my hands injury. Melike did and used everything she could to make sure my hands don’t become infected and Gökhan offered us two reservations for their a la carte restaurants which was very nice of him. The entertainment team also deserves praise for their friendliness and for always recognizing familiar faces, adding a personal touch to our stay. The gym is quite nice to get some workouts done. While the rooms are fairly basic, they are spacious and offer lovely views ( the air con works quite well as well). Housekeeping could use some improvement, particularly when it comes to changing the bed sheets, which unfortunately wasn’t done daily during our stay. In addition, The music by the infinity pool could be improved either by switching to more relaxing tunes or simply lowering the volume. As it is, it doesn’t contribute to a calm or peaceful atmosphere.

Pros: The resort was really nice and the staff were really friendly! Additionally, there was a large selection of food and drinks to choose from, for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The facilities were also amazing. There is access to a private beach, with many sun loungers and multiple separate deck areas too (if you don’t prefer somewhere sandy!). The entertainment team are sure to host many events nightly also, so there is plenty to do on sight such as: live music, darts competitions, bingo etc. Cons: In terms of the rooms overall cleanliness, it was clear to see that there were numerous water marks and stains on the cabinets, mirrors and in the bathroom. When housekeeping would arrive, it would seem as though they were only replacing bed linen and re-stocking towels (as opposed to vacuuming, mopping or wiping surfaces). On another note, one member of the entertainment staff (Hilal) was overly flirtatious and inappropriate (towards my partner) - both of which made my boyfriend and I extremely uncomfortable. So if you’re planning on travelling here as a couple, probably take note of this and be conscious of your surroundings.
