We stayed in the Orange apts, we found we were treated like children. One evening after getting the bus back from hotel at 9.0'clock [next bus wasn't till 11pm which was too late for us having young children] we were told we could only have 2 small drinks at 10.50 pm and were refused if we asked for more. All we wanted to do was sit with other holiday makers and have a quiet chat [it was quiet as the kids were in bed ] we still sat [without a drink till midnight ] when the waiters told us to be quiet we carried on talking, we were then approached by the manager who told us to shut up and go to bed. He went on to say the bar shuts at 11.00pm you should go to bed by 11.30pm when we tried to reply to his comments he became what can only be described as aggressive so much so my 10 year old daughter became very upset.......so no I and most guests who were there at the same time said we would never return.

Also when you pay all inclusive you expect more than what we got. Breakfast was eggs cornflakes or muesli. Snacks from 11am finished 4.45 pm so there was no food available to us after this time unless we went to hotel which was 30 min walk away in 40 degrees, or catch the bus which ran 5 times daily.

Ice creams were not available at the apartments we had to go to hotel where they were served once daily between 3 pm and 3.30 pm.

The beach was really gritty and the rocks in the sea made it impossible to walk into without falling.

Beds by the pool were impossible to get as they were always covered by towels even though no one seemed to be using them.

The children lived on chips for 2 weeks as they didn't cater for the children, even the adult got fed up with the same food day in and day out.

This was our third stay at the hotel and thought that it had got better each time.

THE ROOMS: as we are a family of 4 we were put into a seperate block, not in the main hotel, which was better as they are only 2 stories high.

They are kept very clean and tidy on a daily basis. Soft drinks and water is replaced daily in fridge in room but only if bottles are almost empty. FOOD: Food is very good with chefs cooking fresh fried eggs, omlettes and pancakes in the morning plus normal breakfast food.

Lunch is best taken at the beach bar where you will be spoilt for choice with great pizza, pasta and other foods. Evening meals are also as goods with chefs b-b-q-ing and stir frying fresh food outside plus usual salad etc inside. I would say that most people would be very satisfied with the standard of food.

DRINKS: The drinks are very good with a pleasant choice of cocktails included, with a couple of interntioal brands. The bar staff are very pleasant and can't do enough for you. The ice-creams are only served between 15.00-15.30 but are of good quality.

The swimming pools are very clean and tidy and one has two slides, which are now open 11.00-12.30 and 14.00-15.30 every day. The daytime entertainment is very good if you want to take part, if not you are not hasseled.

The night time entertainment is very good, but as it's our third time we were dissapointed that it hadn't changed so we found that this was a slight negative point, but all other points of hotel over shadow this.

All in all yet again we had a great time, and were made to feel welcome and would reccommend to anybody thinking of going here. You will not be dissapointed.

Most of the staff were nice but some were very rude.

The noise at night from some holiday makers was terrible they stayed up all night. The food was disgusting.

I would never visit this apartment again. My kids enjoyed the entertainment. The bus to Princess Orange where we were staying was not regular enough. If you arrived back at the apartments after 10pm the staff would only give you 2 drinks even though it said it was open until 11pm.

We have just recently returned home after a 2 week stay at the Phaselis Princess/Princess Orange and we wish we were back there now,we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the pool was great, food was really good, entertainment through the day and night was very good especially the animation team could not fault them,Sinem,Neil,Hosan,imray,Morad,Dimitri and Ohmad they made our holiday very special and have become good friends of ours, we wouldn't think twice about going back,the only down side to our holiday was the breakfast at the Princess orange apartments as there wasn't much variety,the buses from the apartments could be more flexible however the staff at the apartments were very helpful and willing to help in anyway they could,the most disappointing thing was our so called rep,didnt really see her much but when we did her attitude stank and she was very unhelpful towards us.

We recently returned from a two week stay at the Phaselis Princess in wich we had a fantastic time.

The hotel is very clean and spacious.whilst during our stay we spent a day on a safari jeep tour of the mountains arranges by the rep,we highly recommend this trip and is not to be missed.

The hotel is idealy located and is perfect for beach lovers like myself. Some watersport are available free of charge and are very entertaining.

There is a kids club for younger children however there was no entertainment for teenagers under 16. Food was very good , but we did not take full advantage of the resteraunt at lunchtime as we always ate at the beach hut.

Staff are very helpful and friendly.daytime entertainment was exceptionally good. We hope to return next summer.

This hotel was great!!!! It was cleaned everyday and the pools were great!!!!! The food was delicious at both hotels and catered for a wide variety!

The location of the hotel is good there are plenty of shops and a bus that runs between the hotels. The staff are very friendly and can be flirtacious in a friendly way they are also very helpful and have a positive attitude.

The entertainment during the day is good they do many water sports and dancing. the entertainment at night was also great the shows varied from dancing to singing. It really got you in a good mood! I would highly reccommend this hotel and we have booked to go agian this year with friends!

Had a fab holiday, especially because of the people we met. Children had a great time, the slides are a bonus and although only open twice a day, it is enough. Right on the beach and the water is beautiful. Rooms are cleaned daily and to a high standard. On the downside, the drinks were watered down and when you have paid a lot of money, this should not be the case. No named brands and ones available have been topped up with water. Beer a bit gassy and no MALILBU!! Entertainment very poor especially for children. More variety needed and especially the English reps could be more involved in the shows. All they want to do is sell trips - I wouldn't bother if I were you as you can sort that out yourself. Food is very good, lots of variety and something for everyone. Beach restaurant very good especially for kids. Do try all the speciality restaurants as you will be waited on and enjoy a lovely evening. Very hot!! Do slap the suncreen on. All in all one of our best holidays and I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel. The staff are lovely. If you get friendly with the pool man, he will save you a sunbed every day! Don't forget to give him a million or two (lira!!) or feed him!! I don't think you will be disappointed although next time I would take some branded spirits to top up the drinks! Enjoy!

We stayed at the Orange Apartments. The staff were brilliant unfortunatley some of the other people staying there had little regard for others.

The food at the appartments is very limited. But it is alot more peaceful than at the main hotel - sometimes we had the pool to ourselves. Meals in the main hotel are good and everyone should find something to their taste. At seven it is very busy. I would suggest going a bit later, there is plenty of it and you won't miss out on a thing.

Sun beds - well there is a problem, you have to get up very early or tip the poolman in order to get a sunbed. Some sunbeds remained unoccupied all day but had towels on them! While we were there they did get a delivery of new ones but the problem did not seem to get any better. My son enjoyed the daytime activities organised by the hotel itself.

The evening adult entertainment is not very good but it has to be very difficult catering for such a wide range of nationalities and they do try. Any trips that you decide to go on are far better booked through the agent up the main street from the hotel. They were far better value for money and you got more time there. With Thomas Cook/JMC more time was spent picking people up from other resorts.

The Rep. Well that can I say. Ours was useless. Only interested in selling the trips. Any problems she was not interested in,infact the hotel staff were far more helpful. The area suited us down to the ground. There was a small selection of shops, restuarants and bars and a market very Saturday. We do not like to go somewhere too built up but it did take a while to get used to being approached in the street by the shopkeepers all the time.

The beach at the hotel was in our opinion not very good. It was very rocky and the beached shelved steeply and there are no romantic walks along it in the evening - its shut off. But the pools made up for it and alot of the time they were not very crowded. Except when the waterslides were open.

all i can say is fantastic.we loved it kids loved it. the staff are lovely the food is second to none the hotel and surroundings are breath takeing loads to do. the intertainment of an evening could be better but saying that the kids loved it.we want to go back next year 2005.5*holiday? yes.... the locatoin not bad you have some good shops out side the hotel great cheap bag shops and a good market once aweek

we stayed at the princess orange apartments july 2003,on an all inc basis, apartments were clean but basic, the food was very poor with hardly any choice, only did basic breakfast and burgers or pizza in the afternoon no evening meals. the bus ran to the phaselis princess about every other hr,so you had to wait for the bus or walk and it was about 40 min walk in boiling hot sun, lastest afternoon bus back was 4.30 then next was 7.30 so we had to leave at 4.30 when we would have liked to have stayed another hour so you could use the facilities and eat at the main hotel which was supposed to be 5* i would give it between 3-4 too many rules and food that brilliant, food was only average to good.there were about 3 restaurants to choose from but 1 only allowed children on fridays it was mainly fish with 1 other restaurant open which was a fish restaurant. most of our party didnt eat fish so we complained but after arguing we eventually got some food, but this is ridiculous having 2 restaurants serving fish on fridays.

it has a pool with slides but these slides were restricted to one hr in the morning and 1 1/2 in afternoon again terrible as the kids were gutted, this was not mentioned in the brochure. ice creams were 3 -3.30 only, cakes 4-430 only, too many rules and regulations felt more like being at school.

i do not rate this a 5 * star, the town was ok just one small road of shops, didnt see any beaches except hotels beach was was again just ok, in general holiday was just average and i wouldnt recommend it. the weather was way too hot. the staff were average not as helpful or friendly as i have had before in turkey, the rep was useless she was seeing one of the waiters and was more concerned what he was up to than guests. entertainment was reasonably good.hotel was clean
