Decided to fill the information vacuum that exists regarding this hotel.
Firstly, there is an error on the website - the hotel is not located in Marmaris, but in Fethiye, the nearest airport in Dalaman is a 40-minute drive from the hotel. The hotel is equally close to the charming resort town of Fethiye, as well as Hisaronu and Kayakoy.
This is undoubtedly the best place to relax on Oludeniz beach. The hotel is 5 km from the beach, but minibuses run every three minutes. The distance to the sea is not so much a minus as a plus. Plus, because the air is cleaner closer to the mountains and the hotel is located away from the noisy shopping districts on the coast, where, moreover, there is very little greenery, but restaurants, cafes, and shops are simply poked.
A free minibus from the hotel runs twice a day at 10-20 and 17-20, but I liked the hotel beach, the Blue Lagoon, less, because it is shallow and the water is not so clear. In addition, it is forbidden to bring your own drinks and food. I advise you to go to Oludeniz. If you have sensitive feet, buy aqua shoes - there are pebbles on the beach and at the entrance to the water.
Two sun loungers and one umbrella on Oludeniz beach will cost you 18 Turkish liras, a minibus from the hotel to the beach - 2.75 liras. It is not true that on the beach there is nowhere for an apple to fall from the people, there were always enough free sunbeds. Sleep well, no need to run to borrow early in the morning.
A small nuance - the free flight from the hotel does NOT stop at Oludeniz beach, although it passes by it. So, if you decide to return from the hotel beach to Oludeniz, you will have to walk about 1 km along the highway (stock up on sun protection). However, the road goes along the sea, and it is so beautiful that you will not regret it.
A paid minibus stops directly at Oludeniz.
A distinctive feature of the hotel is that its guests are 80% British and 20% Turkish. Russians are not there. For language practice, this is ideal, no summer school is needed.
The cuisine is varied, with a slight bias towards Turkish and British. The waiters are well trained, friendly and not at all familiar. What was from the food: salad bar, pide, grilled trout, battered chicken, lamb kebabs, delicious vegetable saute, beef steaks, for dessert: watermelons, ice cream, baklava, English puddings. (This is, of course, not all in one day).
The room was in 4 stars, all the furniture is clean, wooden, neat bathroom, a balcony with a high side. Everything you need fit in a compact area. Me and my Belgian friend liked it. Minus - it can be quite noisy at night, although after our requests, the music began to be quieter in the afternoon and after 11 pm. Also, mosquitoes sometimes fly in, so it's better not to open the window before going to bed. True, I can’t say that the mosquitoes were very annoying.
I highly recommend going to Fethiye to see the tomb of Amyntas in the rock and the ancient amphitheater, not to mention the beautiful bay with yachts. Everything is nearby. Go to the Paspatur Bazaar, quite a nice place. Stay away from impostor guides - they will give you a tour in bad English, and then ask for crazy money for their services.
The shortcomings concerned the tour operator and the companies that organized the excursions, and not the hotel.
Due to a late check-in (the tour operator CoralTravel did not want to spend money on earlier flights to Dalaman), we were settled in an annex, and our room was sold to other tourists that night. This is convenient for the tour operator and the hotel, but no one took into account the rights of the tourist. I will sort this out.
Departure, on the contrary, is early (at 8-00), so the last day was lost, although we paid for it. It turns out that instead of 9 nights we spent only a week in the hotel normally. The British left in the evening, leaving their luggage in the foyer, they did not waste time.
I strongly DO NOT advise you to book excursions at the hotel. We were on a jeep safari from the FOCUS tour and on a horse ride from another company, and both days were considered lost. It is generally better not to take a horse ride if you are not an experienced rider. They say that the walk is for beginners and for children, but they themselves deliberately let the horses into a gallop. I was on a horse for the first time and I almost got killed. It was a big stress, I could hardly stay in the saddle. In a good way, it would be necessary to sue them, but it’s okay, I didn’t break anything for myself.
Returning to the hotel, to be honest, I didn’t notice a difference with five stars, except that they don’t bring you freshly squeezed juice to the beach. If you love beautiful nature, the sea and want to stay within a certain budget, you won’t find a better place. Before that, I was in Kemer, Belek and Marmaris, but the local nature "smokes in the corridor" compared to Fethiye.
