Excellent hotel set in beautiful gardens leading to a fantastic beach with free brollys and sunloungers most of which were empty all day. Watersports cheap.
Bars and resturants across road, also can grab a bargin in the shops and quality better than in Side. Side worth a visit, quite awesome.

Pools - very nice, I understand you need to be up early to grab a lounger round the pool but if you prefer to be 10ft away on the grass like us we came down around 10am each day and got beds no problem. Lots of tree for shade, needed in 45 degrees. Beach and pool towels provided (godsend with 6 of us) and could be changed every few hours if needed.

Stayed in 2 bed apt which had 3 rooms over 3 floor with 3 balconies, very spacious, maid came 7 days a week and cleaned and tidied thoroughly and changed towels n bedding. Safe free.

Food was plentiful, dont expect english breakfast. Lots of fresh breads, jams, cereals, eggs, pancakes and cakes. Lunch we tended to have in the snack bar outside. Foods cooked to order and the pizzas were lovely. Dinner plenty of choice but quite repetitive, lots of chicken. Always get nice soup and fantastic salads. Downside resturant very smokey. Small non smoking section and about 20 tables outside. Ice-cream and cakes served 5-6.
Nescafe coffee machines dotted about complex, help yourself, and the areas, like everywhere else, were spotless. There is also an a'l carte resturant and a fish.

Drinks - fab choice, include international brands, served in glasses unless you were taking to pool, then you were given a plastic cup that did look like glass, instead of the horrible ones you get at most hotels.also your fridge stocked daily with fanta, cola, water and fruit.

Entertainment - Animation team work hard to get to know everyone, very friendly and put in 100%. Daytime activities plentful. Evening entertainment-full marks for effort, but unfortuanatly it was awful, and all over by 10.30. (this was the only fault we could find). The olympics evening on the beach and the beach party were good.
Absolutely bowled over by the effort that was put into the garden party, when they move the whole restuarant outdoors for the evening.

This hotel is definately all inclusive, there is nothing to pay for on site. Also everything in this area of Turkey is priced in Euro.

Wont usually go to same country twice but would go here again, also I understand it is to be renovated this winter and will be 5* in 2007.

Fantastic holiday, recommend to couples and families. Can only agree with all the good points already made.

The only fault was the evening entertainment.

Would return without a doubt.

We stayed in the Hemera Hotel, we found the rooms spacious and comfortable, they were cleaned every day with fresh towels and linen daily, really found the mini bar which was refilled each day with soft drinks and water a god send.

The food in the restaurant was nicely laid out with a lot of variety, catering for all tastes. The Fish Restaurant, Turkish Restaurant and the barbecue area was very enjoyable. My son found the snack bar catered for all his needs being a very fussy eater.

The staff were really friendly and helpful.

The beach was clean and had plenty of sun beds and umbrellas, the pool was nice and clean with plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas, with plenty of shade under trees as well.

The hotel was set in some lovely colourful gardens. Would recommend anyone to got there, hoping to Goa back next year.

Had 2 weeks in June and on our return booked up 2 return next year. the hotel was very clean location was perfect and food was ok 2 me and kids but husband loved it (but we are very fussy eaters).

Hotel staff were all very polite and helpful, but it

I've booked to go back again next year and taking all my family.

The staf made the holiday.

I would recomend this hotel to anyone.

I have just returned from this lovely hotel.It is run like clockwork and all the staff are very friendly and efficient.It is set in beautiful gardens on the beach 30 minutes walk from Side.

The rooms are a decent size but could do with brightening up.(It is closing this winter for refurbishment).The maid changes the towels every day and sheets every 2 days.The resturant is large but unfortunatly the food is right in the middle of the smoking section which is very large so if you dont get down early for your meals the whole area is laden with smoke.

The non smoking area is separarted by a glass partition but is a lot smaller than the main area.This could be a problem when hotel is full,The food is OK,not great but not bad.It is continental in style and is served by the chefs. They give small portions but you can go back for more. My husband asked for 2 fried eggs and the chef was not pleased!

The evening entertainment is very good and the animation team work very hard. There are plenty of sunbeds around the pool,in the garden, and on the beach. On market days some were reserving their beds at 8am then turning up at 2.30pm! I took a parasol from one set of beds because they had and were using them as windbreakers.

There were only about 30 british guests. Most were German. Dutch and Belguims who were the most annoying. We met some lovely German couples and if I had been there for another week I probably have been fluent in German!

The weather was amazing for March and out of the 14 days it was cloudy on 3 afternoons only. I wish I could have stayed for the eclipse but wasnt prepared to pay an extra

Both my boyfriend and I loved everything about this last minute holiday. Accommodation was excellent, location was perfect, staff were very friendly, helpfull and efficiant (you couldn't ask for anything better).

I would recommed this holiday to couples and familes alike.

Food was repetitive after a couple of days, however much better than the first hotel we were at, (moved to Hemera after 1 week).

Hotel was very clean, rooms cleaned daily and linen & towels changed every day.

Location was very good, lots of bars, shops & restaurants, Best one was the Golden Fizz, especially Jack, Ali and Bob.

Hotel staff were friendly & helpful, great with kids.
Entertainment was okay although some was in German so couldn't understand it.

This was our first visit to Turkey and this hotel. We had a family room for 4.Sam aged 15, Si aged 12 each had a single bed in a very spacious room overlooking the large pool. Everything about this hotel was faultless. Clean room, bedding&towels changed daily. Mini fridge stocked daily with soft drinks.

Very clean hotel, pool & garden area.Never saw any rubbish flying around.Great gardens where you can sunbathe which lead to the beach. Beautiful beach with sunbeds, water sports & clear warm sea. Pool & beach towels provided daily.

Food was varied and excellent quality.Always hot. Snack bar by the beach serves pizzas, burgers, salads, soup etc til 5pm.We visited the Seafood and Turkish restaurants which were first class.

All the hotel staff were very friendly & fun. They really worked hard to provide excellent service, especially for the garden party in the evening.

The entertainment team were excellent & worked exceptionally hard in the day with a full schedule of games, and at night putting on excellent shows including a great beach party with belly dancing under the moonlight.A special thanks to Robin! Sam & Si say it was the best holiday they have ever had! They have made so many friends of all ages.

Most of the people we met were on return visits & many were coming back in 2006.

We have booked to return next year. Can't wait!

We have been on many all inclusive holidays and this is one of the best.

What can I say, everything was fantastic, going back next year and have booked already.

The food was all inclusive and excellent with a wide range of choice.

The beach had its own sunbeds and brollys with beach towels.

The hotel rooms were very spacious and cleaned every day.

The staff were very helpful, and the entertainment was brill.
