Bodrum Holiday Resort & Spa

We visited Bodrum Holiday Resort in October 2024. The hotel has the most beautiful views. At the resort is a lot of steps and it is quite hilly. Our room was clean, but furniture are old. The mattress was very very hard. My back hurts all week. We asked in reception to change mattress, but they didn't do that. In bar and main restaurant not enough seating for the amount of guests, so they ate outside restaurant. All areas - pool, main restaurant, bars were dirty - chairs, tables, glass wall in restaurant and bar, floor near pools. We liked grilled food - fish, salmon, chicken at the dinner. Food was normal. Waterpark was good fun, but no food options and it’s a long walk up and down.

I visited Bodrum Holiday Resort with my son in June 2024. The hotel has beautiful views and a great location; however, it may be challenging for older guests and those with mobility issues to explore everything, as the resort is quite hilly. To reach the sea and other facilities, you need to use either steps or steep paths. The rooms were clean, with fresh bedding and a well-maintained bathroom. A dolmuş stop is conveniently located just outside the hotel, making it easy to reach the center of Bodrum. Additionally, the reception offers a variety of tour bookings for those looking to explore further. Now, for the negatives: 1. The main restaurant was disappointing for a 4-star hotel. While the breakfast, salad, and fruit options were decent, the main meals definitely needed improvement. They were also severely understaffed for the number of guests, leading to long queues and a lack of table service—guests often had to clear and set their own tables. 2. The staff at the pizza bar by the beach were often in a bad mood. While I can understand their frustration—pizza is a popular choice, and the hotel only allocated one staff member to manage the demand—it made the experience unpleasant. The restaurant manager was also very loud, constantly shouting at staff, which made dining uncomfortable. The barbecue section was always busy, and the fish tended to be overcooked and dry. Despite these issues, I would still consider returning because of the location. However, when you book an all-inclusive resort, you expect a better dining experience and better staff management. The hotel definitely needs to hire more staff to improve service quality.

Tbh this is the best vacation I have ever had! Definitely gonna come here next year!! First of all, when you enter the hotel staff welcomes you very well and informs you about everything!! It has an aquapark as well and so many snack bars! In every corner there are places that you can get your drink. It has 6 different pools including for kids. Their animation activities are the best! Pretty fun program. On the beach they have pavilions service with extra charge but the prices are pretty much cheap and they are serving you very well!! I had dinner in the both Ala carte restaurants, you need to book a reservation earlier. They were both fancy! Olive restaurant's view was perfect and the stuff is lovely although I have a hard time remembering their name. Definitely gonna come here next year! Thank you for everything Bodrum holiday!!

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.

5/4 The view was amazing Breakfast perfect Lunch& snack good fastfood&salad bar. Dinner for me not very well.But most of the people like it. Drinks ,it was all included but cocktails can not drink ,ı try ones but can not drink.Beer is good but very soft.

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
