Bodrum Holiday Resort & Spa

Convenient location with easy access to the city. Spacious rooms with sea views and well-equipped bathrooms. Excellent amenities including pools, beach, spa, gym, and entertainment team.

Very large hotel spread over a hillside lots of steps and slopes and a lot of walking to different venues like the theatre, water park. Rooms were clean but very dated. The restaurant was very noisy and very busy with food on chairs, more of a canteen. Food wasn't that good and sometimes I ended up with crusty bread and butter for dinner and I am not a fussy eater then half hour before end of service they wheeled the desserts away. It would have been lovely to sit outside to eat but was full of smokers making it impossible, maybe half for smokers and half for non smokers. It would have been good to have a toaster in the morning, I've been all over the world and never not had a toaster. The drinks well in the end we drank our duty free on the balcony. A chemical taste to most drinks which didn't get anyone drunk only sick in our group. The beach was lovely but my poor husband had to go down at 6am to get beds. Lunch time the pizza and jacket potatoes were far better than the evening food. A very busy holiday, needed another one to get over this one.

To be honest the resort is lovely very hilly but lovely, On arrival we was told we was being given a free upgrade to a room in the main building, but I had paid for a club family room and that is what I wanted but never got given The hotel is very picturesque and some amazing views but also very remote with nothing within 10 minutes Taxis to town are 9euros The room we was given was old fashioned, but very large in size The standard of cleaning was shocking and the pool area was not cleaned all week The cat situation as others have pointed out is just ridiculous I have a cat but they are everywhere and you just can’t enjoy a meal In terms of the food it was ok to be honest but mainly a Form or fish or chicken as the week went on the food options got less and less and the desserts were never replenished The negative being the breakfast which was awful As has been quoted the amphitheater was closed disco bar closed , pool bar closed when resort was still open for 3 days , they had an entertainments team on site but other than a game of water polo of an afternoon there was literally nothing going on ,although they walked round and you wondered what they was actually doing, music round the pool in the day was good though The evening entertainment, karaoke was fun and the dancing show was also great but that’s about it The staff on resort were friendly enough other than the lady in Turk bar with ginger hair who was rude quite a bit and the 1 receptionist who could smile every now and again Would we go probably not purely because we like to try other hotels and resorts , what I will say is it is only a 3 star not a 5 star To be a 5 star the rooms need modernising and the cleaning and cat situation needs to be changed
