Lovely stay at this hotel. We came as a family of 6, 4 adults and 2 children. My daughters loved this hotel and the fact there was a private beach was a huge factor in this. All staff were friendly and helpful, the typical Turkish welcome was amazing after a long day of travelling! Food was absolutely fine, something fresh and tasty every day, even my picky daughter found something to eat and loved the deserts. Massive Thankyou to Hadi for taking such wonderful care of us during our evening meal. The staff work so hard to keep the grounds and rooms immaculate, we would often see them working until late to ensure pool areas were spotless for the following day. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

We have just returned from our first visit to turkey and already re booked for next year. The hotel was excellent. It was spotless, food was amazing with plenty of choice and entertainment was great. We really liked that the beach and main entertainment was a small walk from main hotel as we enjoyed the short walk daily. Our son loved the mini disco and shows and every staff member was great with him. We have already booked for next year, however going in September in the hope that the pools will be a little warmer. The staff really couldn’t do enough for us from the moment we arrived. We tried the Turkish and Italian a la carte during our stay which were amazing. As mentioned above, the hotel was spotless and I honestly think that when my son accidentally dropped some of his dinner from his fork, the cleaner had it before it even touched the ground! Thanks for amazing memories. See you September 2025!

Spent 11 nights here in October and its a great hotel, would recommend. Arrival was late but they have a 24 hour bar in the lobby, which was great as waiting for friends arriving from a different flight. Check in was quick and easy and staff were on hand to take your bags to your room. Room was a twin, quite spacious with cupboard space, ironing board, a free safe, tea/coffee facilities (no milk but they will give you some for your room if you ask). The staff are lovely throughout the hotel and beach area. Never came across any with a bad attitude. I would say ignore people who say the staff are rude, English just isn't their first language and might come across as blunt when speaking but they staff cant do enough for you. Please tip the staff too, they work so hard. I made sure I had lira with me to tip them throughout my stay. There are plenty of bars between the hotel and beach area. Again don't get the reviews to say drinks were watered down as I could always taste the alcohol and if earlier in the day, I had to ask for weaker drinks haha. Plenty of choice in drinks and the servers were always so friendly and entertaining. They also offer a good selection of kids drinks and mocktails and there are fridges scattered about with water drinks plus freezers with different options of ice creams, which you can just help yourself to. There is a huge selection of food at the buffets, different foods of course but you're in a different country so should expect different foods. Most of the same food was on every day with some changes each night and themes but plenty to choose from and they also have a wee separate area for the kids buffet. There are a lot of bread options so be prepared to eat copious amounts of carbs! During the day, there is your usual burgers, chips, nuggets available as well as a pizza bar every day at the beach pool. We also visited the Mexican and Italian á la carte. Both were lovely though the Italian food portions were tiny. Would still recommend a visit though as made a nice change. So the hotel has a hotel pool area with bigger slides, a beach pool area with smaller slides and splash bit then the actual beach with plenty of sunbeds. So you can go between them all and never get bored. Please note that some days the pools were absolutely freezing in October, I couldn't stay in them but the kids were ok after a while. The beach pool was colder than the hotel one. The beach itself was also great and the pier is worth a visit, to jump off into the sea or just bathe in the sun. There is a bar on the pier too. Plenty of water sports activities available close by at an extra cost. The kids loved the jetskis. We also hired a cabana/pavilion for the day, was €70 for 5 of us. If you're going to spend a day at the beach, I would highly recommend. You have your own wee area to sunbathe or chill in the shade plus there is someone that will get you food/drink. You're not too close to the water but it’s a 5 minute walk. You can also use the sister hotel Ramada, who has the same slides but also has an indoor pool. They also served food from 11pm if you're hungry at night or late arrivals. Entertainment varies and worked out that some nights were better at the Ramada than others so I would check out both if staying at the hotel at night. The entertainment is a but different but we enjoyed it. Mr/Mrs Wyndham was funny and kids loved the karaoke. The beach entertainment is more lively and enjoyed a couple of nights there, including an end of term party which was brilliant for the kids. Check out is 12pm and our pick up time wasn't until 8pm. The hotel was full so couldn't keep our room but you could use all the facilities, including the changing rooms and showers at the gym/spa area. Shower pressure here was also so much better! We made the mistake of booking a boat trip through Jet2. Please don't do this, it is extremely over priced and the boat trip wasn't great. There are so many more options available at better prices from local sellers. I would recommend Best Trips Antalya. We used them for Land of Legends and they were amazing, great communication and the transport was brilliant, the kids loved their taxi. Land of Legends is worth a visit but give yourself plenty of time to visit the water park and the theme park. They also do a light show at the end, which was lovely. My only issues with the hotel were with the room. The beds are really hard and found it hard to sleep on. If you ask, they will put on a mattress topper. It is paper thin but actually made such a difference. The shower is a good walk in size but the pressure was really poor, this was not great. The room A/C is fixed to not go lower than 24 degrees, which even in October, this was too hot for me. Had to have the A/C on when in the room, which gave me a sore throat having it on all night. I did say to reception but the solution was to keep a card in whilst out so stayed on all day. I ended up turning it off at night, which was just about manageable to sleep in. Could never do it in the height of the summer. Saying that, I would still recommend the hotel to others, especially with kids. I would go back to Lara Beach but would probably try another hotel, only because some of the hotels there look amazing!

First time in Turkey. I wasn't sure what to expect, but everyone I knew who had been said it is great! Booked with On The Beach, which was also a first! Again I was nervous, but I needn't have been. Family of 4, a 19 and nearly 17 year old, in Oct half term. The hotel is superb, it is really clean, literally cleaners constantly cleaning. Staff in general are super helpful pleasant and friendly. No issues getting sun beds, although you've got to move all day to keep in the sun. Food choice is a little limited, but is of a really high quality (miles and miles better than a 4 * Spanish equivalent). Grilled chicken is immense! Plenty of activities during the day if your interested. Nighttime entertainment, well they try and sometimes decent, but again not really our bag... All inclusive is excellent, local spirits, wine and beer all decent and fill your boots, absolutely unlimited. Water always available in fridges dotted about... Decent "waterpark" on site.. Food and drinks available near enough 24/7. Biggest problem for us was there was absolutely nothing to do outside of the hotel. No nice looking bars to go for a drink and different atmosphere.
