Firstly it’s clear that with regard to value for money, the Mukarnas hotel is very good. We have done numerous 5 star resorts over the past few years and whilst we wouldn’t rank the Mukarnas at the top of those places, we have had a fantastic and enjoyable trip for a low price. Small things such as the quality of the cocktails served within the All-Inclusive package is relatively extensive and of a high quality. The hotel is clean, especially the rooms with pretty viewsand there are plenty of amenities available to all travellers. We had plenty of fun in the pool and on water slides but particularly enjoyed revisiting our youth playing pool and arcades in the evening. Kenan was superb. Our trip would not have been the same without a number of key individuals, so I would like to take this opportunity to thank them personally and we hope they get the appropriate recognition for their hard work during our stay. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ahmet from the bar team. His language, skill in the bar and customer service skills are fantastic and he was a pleasure to be around during our stay. The best cocktails ❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Kadir also from the bar team, not only did he provide superb service whilst at the bar with superb drinks and cocktails, but when our private taxi did not arrive for our transfer to the airport, he assisted us for over 30 minutes until one did. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Zuhal was the best waitress who not only also provided service with a smile but was especially kind and helpful throughout our stay. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Haldun What a superb manager of the bar and man. ❌❌❌❌❌ Things the hotel need to address: ❌We felt the General Management and customer service at the hotel was quite poor and lacking in comparison to other destinations and experiences of ours. It would be fair to say that the Mukarnas is at the lower price point, However, in our opinion if you’re a 5 star resort aspire to deliver an exceptional service, not just an acceptable one. If the bar staff can do it the management team should certainly be able to manage it! ❌❌❌❌❌ A La Carte / Food: When using our booking platform it clearly states an additional charge for arcades/pool tables/bowling etc. There is absolutely no mention of an additional fee for A La Carte which is still only a set menu. This would have affected our choice to book The Mukarnas and for that reason we would not revisit. It’s misleading, wrong and was a huge disappointment for us. The food is generally of a high standard with great variety and quality included within the price, given there were only two opportunities to experience it across 10 days we’re disappointed that the management didn’t recognise the fault on their part and it has cost them returning visitors. ☀️☀️☀️To wrap it up if you’re looking for a low cost holiday but still want a good level of quality you won’t have a bad time here.
