My wife and i have stayed here about 5 times. Love the place. But ever since Thomas Cook UK went out of business, i can't seem to find a holiday company that includes this fine hotel. When i do find it , it shows no avaliablity . Any uk based people can help. Tell me who you use thanks. Tui doesn't include Melas. We want to come back. Great staff and hotel. Thanks for any help.

Just back from a week's holiday at Melas resort. Myself, my mum, 16 year old daughter and her friend. We had a lovely time and we were very impressed with the hotel and complex. My 60 year old mum unfortunately broke her ankle a week prior to our holiday and so she was hobbling around. The staff could not of been any more attentive and helpful to her. The rooms are spacious, modern, clean and well equipped. The food was to a very high standard infact one of the best all inclusive hotels we have stayed at. We particularly enjoyed visiting the ala carte beach bar at lunch time which had fantastic views of the beach and a great menu of pizza's, burgers, salads, pasta, chips etc. The entertainment was ok and the girls particularly enjoyed the pool parties over at the Melas holiday village. The on site aqua park was a little tame for teenagers I felt but we still all enjoyed a few short visits. The location of the hotel was excellent and it is possible to walk the whole promenade next to the beach into Side old town which is beautiful and well worth a visit. It is about 30 minutes walk. But you can also take a bus or taxi from the front of the hotel along the main roads for about 6 euro. As other people have mentioned in their reviews, the hotel is mainly German and has very little English visitors. This was not a problem at all, all the staff are very welcoming and actually love having English guests. The other guests were all polite and lovely and infact there are many different nationalities around the pool during the day. It did not alter our experience at all and actually we enjoyed this about the hotel. I'm sure over time more English people will choose to visit the Melas as it is a fabulous hotel and we would recommend it to anyone. Thank you for a lovely family holiday Melas.

I’m just sat in the pool bar in the evening enjoying my last day or so at this amazing hotel. Hotel is spotlessly clean, great food ! Staff are absolutely so friendly and helpful it is untrue nothing is too much trouble at all. If I can give any advise at all if you do venture out the hotel don’t bother bringing Turkish Lira, just bring Euros. Everything out side the hotel is priced in Euros they really do not want the lira at all. Over all as a family we have had a great time at this hotel.

We have just come back from a fabulous break at this hotel. Fantastic location, excellent foods and drink but our highest praise is for all the staff who were both professional but very welcoming and made our holiday a memorable one. However can we just give a mention for the entertainment team. I dont think we have ever come across a team so enthusiastic and full of fun, we loved it. Highly recommend this hotel and we would love to return.

This is probably the friendliest hotel in Europe. I have just returned from my 18th visit and many other tourists regularly return. The hotel has also carried out recently several refurbishments to a very high standard. The food is also excellent with a great number of choices.

My first experience with vacation in Turkey and must say, I am really excited. In short: Room The room is modern, cleaned every day and standard equipment. We had side view to the sea with balcony. Nice view to Side, not disturbing from other hotels. In the room is also available towels to the beach, no need to carry any from home. Every day is refilled drinks in the fridge (water, Fanta, Coca cola, beer). In the hotel is available wi-fi, with reach to the beach. Food I like food and what was served in the hotel is absolutely amazing. a large selection of different type of meals. Everybody could choose what they like, lot of vegetables, fruits and meats. Theme dinner was brilliant, so every day you can taste something special. Amazing seafood, traditional Turkey cuisine, Mexican, Asia or International cuisine. amazing starters and sweets. It was great (thank you cooks). The staff speaks german and english, so its easy to order drink and they are always happy to help with anything. Entertainment Pool or aqua park is OK, you can stay in the hotel in the pool, or walk 5 minutes to the aqua park with other pool and enjoy water slides especially children. Each pool has own bar, so you will not be thirsty or hungry. Beach is close to the hotel, only what you need is cross the promenade. In the beach is fridge with cold water, or you can go to the beach bar and order some drink or enjoy popsicles. No problem to find spot with sunshade. The beach is clean, no dirt, so if you have children, perfect place for entertainment. In the evenings was always some show at pool or amphitheatre. Or if you want to have calm evening, just stay in lobby bar and enjoy some drink. Surroundings Close to the hotel is Side old town. If you are keen on history, nice museum and amphitheatre (entry is paid in Turkish lira) but very nice exposition with old relics of Rome age. You can go there by foot, roughly 30 minutes on promenade, or you can use bus or taxi. In the old city, there are a lot of shops, restaurants. We enjoyed the stay in the hotel and I can recommend this hotel for everybody, ideal holiday with childrens. I am looking forward to next stay in this hotel. Thank you Melas team!
