La Blanche Island Bodrum

Guests praise the spacious, comfortable rooms with elegant decor and sea views. They appreciate the exceptional service and top-notch facilities, despite some minor construction. Convenient location near the airport.

- It was a really nice visit, and the staff were all really friendly and amazing. Not all spoke English, but they'd find someone to help if needed. - Bar staff were really nice and make excellent drinks. Nice and strong and decent quality. - The room was really comfortable with plenty of space, very nice mattress and seating area. TV was a little small but you hardly used it anyway. - The entertainment staff were friendly, and the spa staff were not pushy at all - The food, while tasty and with enough variety for a week's stay, was always lukewarm. (Cold scrambled eggs) It was rare to get something hot, I dont think that the heating plates were working, or they were turned off. - Desserts were always rrally good, little tarts, cheesecakes, baklava etc - The snack bars were good, burgers, chicken strips, wraps etc were nice little bites.The tacos were not tacos, but a bit of chicken with spicy sauce covering. - The Starbucks on site was also really good, though it was only one girl working, and while she moved quickly the queues were about 10 mins -The pools were freezing, it was ucomfortable to be in there for a long time. The sea was warmer. - The sunbeds were all comfortable, plenty of shelter if you dont want to be in the sun, and dont want to mess about with umbrella's - About 30 mins from the airport so a little far from town.

Our stay at this hotel overall was extremely satisfying and relaxing. Lots of strengths with some little areas where they could improve. The positives are incredible panoramic views which enhanced a real relaxing wellbeing feeling. The restaurant and bar staff in general were extremely helpful and friendly, plenty of choice with the food and an excellent out door grilling area where you could get awesome grilled fish and meats, the turkey was particularly good. We also enjoyed using the spa facilities especially the sauna and gym again friendly and helpful. Especially the lady in the gym very nice, and Andy from the spa. If you fancy a trip to Bodrum a bus picks you up just outside the main entrance and returns all for about €3 ea saves a fortune on taxes, worked well for us and enjoyed the visit especially for shopping. Pools very clean always a life guard about plenty of fresh towels available. Some staff walking about to invite you for trips to Bodrum or water sport, a big shout out to Tom and Jimmy very friendly and welcoming. Entertainment was really good, excellent shows and bands. We saw Harmony 4 one night extremely good lots of people dancing, headed by the entertainment team who were excellent headed up by Madi and Will very friendly and professional. Another strength lots of themed snack bar restaurants Mexican, Italian, Turkey etc, enjoyed those. So little negatives hotels a bit dated and needs refurbishing in certain areas, ie lots of tiles cracked and patched up in the outside areas, runs need updating to although spectacular views!. A problem in rush hour timing at the main restaurant we could not find a table and had to wait. Also although Star bucks was amazing we spent to much time in queues waiting for our drinks up to 30 minutes sometimes. To resolve this it’s so popular just get another machine and person and problem solved. Although beach area was nice there was not enough staff clearly rubbish away after people had eaten so often left over paper plates and cups about, this aspect should be improved on as it would improve your experience. So to conclude very happy overall with great strengths some small problems but would definitely come back and would say excellent value for the money. Thanks la blanch we had an amazing holiday!!
