An unforgettable start to September! A perfect mix of relaxation and fun. From resting by three different pools (two outdoor, one indoor) and enjoying the perfect sea water temperature, to participating in all the activities organized by the entertainment team: Aşkın, Polen, Hülya and Uğur. The overall service at the hotel is amazing, and the staff are truly wonderful people. Dogukan will recognize himself – teşekkür ederim, abi! Lastly, I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. The quality-to-price ratio is excellent.

“More Entertainment please. ”

Visit September 26th for 10 nights. I noticed a big improvement from last year. There were a few changes made.

Visit September 26th for 10 nights. I noticed a big improvement from last year. There were a few changes made. I'm not sure if the guests in September got to benefit from the changes to the seating area on the roof. Or the other one above the beach bar. We had a nice meal in the fish restaurant. Staff were fantastic, and the food was lovely. I tried things I had never tasted before. Octopus, cheeses . The starter was massive. I'm sure if the portions were smaller, there would not be as much waste. It was like tapas, which I love. There are just too many different things. We finished the meal and decided to go into the rooftop. No bar, just a projection of artists singing so low, we decided to go. I really like Samara, and I've been 2 years in a row. However, we like to get dressed up at night and watch a singer. Or a duo playing music. Just light entertainment. There is basically nothing . Our highlight was that a gentleman burst into song one night in the lobby bar. Everyone was clapping and cheering him. He did a couple of songs and left. We had a chat with him. He said the same as us. It's all about finding the balance. We don't want loud and madness. Just an opportunity to have a dance and a song. May be some sort of entertainment. The amphitheatre is not for us. The Olive bar is wasted space. This could be a children's entertainment area. Brighten it up. Kids and families would love it. Starting early. And let the adults get the kids to bed. Not wait till 9 . Or 10 for it to start up the hill. I've studied many hotels in my career. Samara has a lovely atmosphere, and it's chilled. During the day. It's perfect. Relaxing is key. Just evening entertainment for adults it lacks. Down at the bar would be great a singer. Guitar player. Or the lobby bar. Something. Thank you .

“Turn on the indoor pool and stay away from standard rooms”

Booked this hotel for school half term holidays in October, for the heated indoor pool when realising the weather is only going to be mid-20s in temperature.

Booked this hotel for school half term holidays in October, for the heated indoor pool when realising the weather is only going to be mid-20s in temperature. We feel that the use of the pool is part of the holiday and if the outdoor pools are cold, we’d hope indoor one wouldn’t be? Wrong. Upon arriving, we were given a standard room which was really poor in quality so we upgraded to a nicer room, with a sea view. The quality of the room was far better, but felt really disappointed that the indoor pool was not really warm at all, even after 3 days of asking for the pool to be heated. No one was in there as a result. Guy at the spa tried his best to sell his expensive spa packages - more expensive than UK prices so why would anyone bother? Entertainment wasn’t great, lots of gloomy holiday makers sat around hotel looking bored. We stayed in our room but no English Channel tv either. (However WiFi signal was great ✔️) Never been on holiday where we enjoyed our room most evenings. No day time entertainment either. There’s a minibus that comes to pick passengers every 20 mins to Bodrum town, which was really useful, to spend time elsewhere. Food was fine. Bar food near the outdoor pool seems a great place for junk food. Excellent quality too surprisingly. All in all, fine hotel. Shabby in some areas, great in others. Wouldn’t come here again in October-felt cheated about the lack of ‘heated pool’. For the money, it’s probably the worst hotel we’ve been to in Turkey. Wished we went elsewhere or stayed at home.
