Dream World Hill

Upon arrival I was a little surprised that no-one guided us to our room as usually the bell boy does but we found it ok so no worries. We had a 2 bedroomed family room with an interconnecting door which was fine, the pillows were a bit too high but once we told the cleaner she changed them for us. Tea and coffee, a kettle and a mini bar filled with soft drinks, replenished daily if you wish were good. I found the hotel easy to navigate as its designed in a circular shape and not overly huge like some hotels in this area. The food was good, although the soup times at night were limited to 30 minutes which I thought was a bit tight. We enjoyed the themed nights and one night they even had Sushi. One morning they had a huge piece of natural honey comb too which was nice. The drinks provided were local alcohol and soft drinks, all sufficient and the waiters were extremely attentive. The animation team, especially Irem, were always friendly and accommodating without being too intrusive. Most of the guests are German at that time of the year, but they did play my music requests when asked. Considering it was out of season, there was a lot going on. For example, there were dance lessons and fitness to partake in during the day, and often some form of entertainment at night, we especially enjoyed the Asian acrobats, that was a fantastic show. My children soon discovered the patisserie which was a highlight of the hotel as they make fresh waffles with many different ice cream flavours and toppings to choose from. There were also lots of attractive cakes and a chef baking fresh pizza to order too! Down at the beach, there wasn't a lot going on as it was February, but we were lucky it was sunny though and around 21c. Not many shops were open around Kumkoy so one day we got a taxi to Evrenseki which never disappoints in terms of shopping and is only 5 minutes away. You can also get the dolmus there which is even cheaper. Outside of the hotel, left of the back entrance, there is a large shop which lets you pay by card and also if you pay in GBP for example, you can ask for your change in any currency so that was a handy way to get some Euros or Turkish lira for shopping. One thing that struck me about this hotel was that it was the first I have ever seen in this area where the staff seemed to enjoy their work and spoke highly of the management. Credit to the management for showing respect to their staff and making it an enjoyable place to work! Not something you often see in Turkey! I would return to this hotel, as the food and drinks were good, it had a relaxed atmosphere and the staff were great too. The location is good too as just a 5 min walk to the beach, it is surrounded by shops and just a quick ride to Antik Side (which is a must!) or Everseki or even Manavgat if you wish to explore your surroundings.

Best customer service ever, especially from bar staff. Rooms immaculate and food and cocktails delicious. They even had entertainment which was a bonus. Wish I was there now will definitely come back next year

If you’re not German, prepare to feel excluded. It’s a hotel that revolves around their German tourists, so if you’re from anywhere else it’s best to find another hotel. I was happy that it was all inclusive but honestly the food was awful, from breakfast to dinner I can’t name one thing I enjoyed. The photos people have taken speak for themselves. Everything either had no seasoning, is half cooked or runny when it shouldn’t be. The hotel staff were very rude, especially the receptionists. If you try to raise an issues you experience with reception they will patronise you and do nothing to help. Also found it annoying that there are no irons in the room, and you have to pay extra for the ironing service. The cleaners were the only nice thing about the hotel, they were polite and did their job well when I was out the room. Another downside was the air conditioning, it didn’t work. The nights were so cold especially since we were only given a single sheet to use, and the AC would not work so I would be shivering.
