Selectum Family Resort Side

This was our first trip to Turkey and our first vacation with our daughter, as we wanted her to be old enough to remember the experience. We are so happy we chose this hotel! From the moment we arrived, despite check-in being at 2 PM after night flight and transfer, we were able to enjoy the facilities immediately. We quickly changed into our swimsuits and headed to the wonderful pools, where we were warmly greeted by Amir. Afterward, we explored the food area and were so engaged that we hardly noticed when our room was ready. The staff is incredibly responsive, always kind, and smiling. It's amazing to see how well they manage everything with such a positive attitude! The room was cleaned every day, always spotless and tidy. The food was delicious, with a wide variety of options, ensuring that every meal was enjoyable. The hotel grounds are spacious, and the sea is just a short walk away. The water was warm and inviting! Our daughter especially loved the kids' club and formed a special connection with one of the staff members. In the evenings, we enjoyed both the adult and children's shows, and the carousels were a hit with our daughter. We will definitely recommend this hotel to our friends. A big thank you to the entire staff for making our first trip to Turkey so memorable and special. It was truly an unforgettable experience. Guests from Latvia

We are at the hotel right now. We stay in a beautiful family room, with sea view. It's a bleesing to wake up every morning and see such a lovely place. But like every hotel, there are good and bad things. The good things are the amount of activities for families such as aquapark, luna park and snack area which gives you the possibility to avoid the crowd in the main restaurant which is full during lunch and dinner. The bad things are the towels for "reserved" sunbeds, the old lady in black from gozleme corner who said that 3 gozleme is too much. Maybe for 1 person is too much, but for my family of 4 person is a decent lunch. So, lady in black (the older one), please do your thing and leave the rest to us! A big NO for a la carte restaurant reservation desk. Is it possible that in our first day of vacation to say that Deep Sea restaurant is full? Then tell us please, when should we make the reservation, before we arrived here, from home or from airport, just to have a real chance to choose dinner at this fish restaurant? Another thing we dont like is the russian program of live music. Please, can we skip that? Isn't it a hotel for everyone? It's just for Russian? The beach is with pebble and big rocks. So pay attention! We enjoyed Dj Mert with the entire show, but for now this is the only part of the evening entertaining that we liked. And of course, we love room 6093!

Food: The menu is very repetitive, The Lunch and dinner offerings are very similar, unfortunately food is often mislabelled or not labelled at all, my daughter is vegetarian and she found it hard to eat a meal other than plain rice, chips and bread. Breakfast has a wide variety of eggs, the cereals were of poor quality, there was no chopped fruit, just whole apples, bananas etc. The a la carte Mexican restaurant was fantastic, I cannot fault it, absolutely delicious with top quality drinks. The ice cream bar was delicious. Drinks: very weak and often badly made. There was a bit of a language barrier with the bar staff so I would often request a drink and be served something different but I was too polite to send it back so I would often just drink it, I could not drink the Bloody Mary as it’s utterly vile wherever you order it. I was ordering a cocktail and an accompanying shot to actually taste it. Swimming pools and slides: absolutely top notch. The lifeguards were very attentive. They had a very strict no tomfoolery policy. The safety of guests is very important to all of the lifeguards and they all demonstrated this remarkably. Cleaniness and housekeeping: absolutely top notch, the rooms were cleaned to a very high standard and there are many recycling and litter bins across the resort. Housekeeping do come a little too early though, 8am is not a good time for families who are trying to get everything organised and get down to breakfast. An all inclusive resort whilst encouraging indulgence, in this case leaned more towards greed and this is not the fault of the hotel staff but the guests themselves. Many guests behaved as if they had never seen food before and were taking mountains of strawberries and watermelon, often wasting it. Towels on the loungers was an issue here too, counting the guests in the pool compared to the empty but betowelled loungers was often frustrating.
