The hotel is clean, the staff are friendly, and the entertainers engaging - as I'm sure is their job, but they do it well. There's an ample amount of food and drink throughout the day too, including ice cream, a poolside snacks bar and fresh gozleme (stuffed Turkish pancakes). The evening entertainment visitors provided ample skills and abilities to keep guests entertained after the sunsets too, especially the fire show and acrobatic dancers. There did seem to be a slight delay however on the setup, and there was usually a 15-20min delay compared to the advertised start times. The pool is quite sizeable, although (half of it) can be disrupted by daily activities put on by the entertainment team - it's not a big deal, but it can effect those wanting to swim one end to the other. Get that done in the morning. The beach is literally just across the promenade too. From frequent visits to Turkey over the last few years, this resort actually has a TUI rep which is a welcome addition; for information about the hotel, to local catering suggestions through to the booking of trips. Plenty going on for kids too, from the daily kids club activities, to the evening dance entertainment shows. Would also recommend the Turkish Spa treatment; best taken earlier in your holiday if you've an interest in going home glowing - something to do with skin cells, if you have the spa treatment too late they'll just wipe away all your tanned skin! Do beware though, the actual spa workers (as I expect is common) work long hours, long weeks, for what I imagine is minimal pay, so tips, I'm sure would be appreciated on your way out. And then there's the cons - because there's no such thing as perfect. Despite what may seem like a modern(ish) gym facility from the photos, the gym here is small, dated and doesn't seem to have any air conditioning, nor does it open until 9am. The same disappointment can be attached to the 'entertainment room' which has a single pool table and some ************* (not covered in the all inclusive package). If you're active, or an early riser, you'll likely find yourself sitting around a bit in the mornings - short of a stroll or run up the promenade. Normally you may go to the gym, but in this case, you'd have to wait around till 9am and squeeze into a box. Breakfast starts at 7. Hotel staff could do with enforcing some policies too, such as appropriate restaraunt attire, smoking, eating restaurant food around the pool, and the reservation of sun beds etc.. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot going on outside of the resort either, but Kusadasi is only a 20-30min taxi journey away (at €15-20). There's plenty to see there if you want to escape the resort for a few hours - or the day, and that's in addition to the TUI excursions as well as those offered from beachfront adventure teams. Also not specific to the hotel either, but something to be aware of; visiting Germans apparently lack manners and seemingly haven't quite grasped the concept
