We visited turkey for the first time last year and stayed in Marmaris as a family of 4, this year we chose this hotel as it was the Hilton, 5 star, what more could we ask for. I won’t go into the bits that jet2 were responsible for but from the transfer from the airport to this hotel was 25 minutes, perfect when you’re flying into turkey late (we landed at 10:15pm). Upon arrival we were greeted by plenty of staff, who took our luggage straight into the lobby as we checked in. Check in was very smooth, they offered us an upgrade to a lake house but after reading many reviews we didn’t think this was for us, we already booked a family room with a swim up. Once we’d checked in, we left our luggage in the lobby and went for a bite to eat at the buffet restaurant which is open for supper 11pm-1am. Plenty of salad, fruit, and some hot food options, including cakes for those with a sweet tooth before bed, it was perfect for what we needed after travelling. When we returned to lobby, all the staff from before seemed to have finished perhaps? So there was no one around to show us to our room, so we had to figure that out ourselves and it proved quite difficult, the hotel is huge so it took us around 20 minutes to navigate to our room as the only staff member was the receptionist checking some more families in, everyone else just seemed to have disappeared, this was our only negative of the holiday, after travelling for over 7 hours including airport travel and transfer, the last thing we wanted was getting lost around the hotel at 12:30am! After finally finding our room, we booked a family swim up room. At that time of the night I wasn’t really paying attention to the swim up, but the room had 2 king size beds pushed together and then we had 2 singles made up into a double. This room can sleep up to 6 and there was 4 of us so plenty of space. It was clean, spacious, with all the facilities you could want, tea/coffee facilities, mini bar which was stocked everyday with fizzy drinks, water, beer, hairdryer, iron and ironing board, a safe, smart TV, shower and a bath with a separate toilet. We woke up around 930 after a late night, I went straight out to the swim to for a look and it was great, a big area outside our room with 2 chairs and a table then a gate to enter the swim up with some sunbeds. We got ready and made ur way to the buffet restaurant. Breakfast was great.. I’m not going to go into everything but honestly they had EVERYTHING!! The resort was clean, well staffed, the snack bars are UNREAL!! The food comes out minutes after ordering, the spirits and drinks are all great, no cheap options. Everything’s premium! Get your bearings on day 1, the resort is huge!! We treated our girls to a kids spa, a little pricey for what they actually get, but the experience was worth it for them! Hand, food massage, mini facial and nail painting, it was 30 minutes and was 50euros each. I did book myself in for a facial, the spa is gorgeous, there is
