Foto Tui Blue Barut Andız - All Inclusive - Adults Only

This was our first stay at the Tui Blue Barut Andiz and it won't be our last. We read lots of reviews before booking and everyone told the same story about how fantastic this hotel is and we weren't disappointed. Most of the other guests we spoke to had all stayed here before. From the moment we stepped through the door we felt at home. The hotel has a wonderful relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Every member of staff we met gave us a warm welcome. A special thank you to Savas and his team who all do an amazing job making sure everyone has a wonderful holiday, too many names to mention, we can't praise the team enough. Our hotel rooms (1231 & 1232) were spotlessly clean, spacious and very well equipped, plenty of wardrobe space and drawers. The bed was extremely comfortable with a selection of pillows. The minibar was restocked with water every day. The bathroom again was spacious, plenty of surface space for toiletries. Soap, shampoo and shower gel was complimentary. The main restaurant served a good selection of food each day, breakfast, lunch and evening meal. The hotel also has 2 al a carte restaurants 'The Olive' (Italian) and 'The Culinaruim' (selection of world cuisines), the Culinaruim also acts as the lunchtime snack bar which is waiter service. Sandwiches and cakes are also available throughout the day from the coffee shop. Evening entertainment at the roof top bar included singing acts, Turkish dancers and a silent disco, (great fun, just wish someone had told me not to sing :-) ) A casino night was held at the indoor venue room . The roof top and reception bars serve wonderful homemade cocktails. Everything we ate and drank was first class! The hotel includes a private beach which is a short stroll. The sun loungers were clean and comfy. A member of the hotel team mans a fridge providing a good selection of drinks at the beach. He also handed out ice creams and water melon, greatly appreciated. Toilet facilities are available at the nearby sister hotel. The gym was well equipped and the sauna free. Side town is a lovely 30 minute walk along the beach or promenade or a 5 minute taxi ride (about 10 euros). The town center is built around the stunning roman ruins and looks especially great at night when everywhere is lite up. There are lots of shops along the promenade and in the old town. Tip - all the shops price everything in euros so it is really easy to calculate what something costs. The downside to this is that you will need cash or a physical bank card to pay in euros as their card machines only except virtual card payments in Turkish Lira. The shops are happy to convert the euro price into lira but it can get confusing. From our experience, I have ordered a physical card and will take more cash next time (cash is king). Thank you again for a fabulous holiday and hope to visit again soon.
