I loved the hotel. I liked where the hotel was. and the rooms were very clean and pretty! The cleaners cleaned the rooms every day.

The hotel was a really good size, in the end it was like a home as I found my way about very easily as there was signs placed around the hotel to say where all the things were. There was a really good games room in the hotel, where there was two computers with internet access and was not that much money to get on the internet for an hour.

I found the pool fantastic there was plenty of room to swim! The food was amazing and I have saved the best for last..... The staff I loved them all (especially Danny) I loved him!!!! Jimmy was very entertaining and sean and ricky were lovely too! Roberto was really nice as well. They all spoke very good English.

Me and best mate Sarah visited in July and spent my birthday in Kusadasi.

It was the best holiday we have ever had, I fell in love with the staff in particular Jimmy as he was so entertaining, hard working and lovable. All the hotel lads made the holiday what it was for us. They are a credit to the hotel, so friendly and helpful and speak really good English.

JJ the rep is the best ever and we love her she works really hard and is really approachable you can ask her anything and she is always happy to help.

Eating at hotel is lovely. Food is excellent Cheffy and Ahmed (chefs) are excellent so is the garlic bread and chicken sish kebabs (our favourite!!).

Roberto and Antonio the best barmen, entertaining providing drinks all day and night!

Hotel rooms are lovely clean, linen changed regularly bins emptied daily and beds made too, cleaners work really hard. The pool is gorgeous with the loungers clean and tidy thanks to Poolman!!

It truly is the best hotel we couldnt fault it at all, we loved it so much we came back 7 weeks later for another 2 weeks and have stayed in contact with the hotel staff!!

I turned 23 out there in July and the boys bought me a cake, drinks and pressys it was excellent!!

On Tuesday they have welcome nights and entertain everyone. Also they have a belly dancer with free dinner. On Thursdays it is bbq night which is lovely and have entertainment, and if you really miss England (ha ha) they have roast beef night on Saturdays!!!

They also play good recent films and footy on big screen on other nights!!

Weather is beautiful its holiday you wont ever forget!! Enjoy!!

The hotel is great, great views, pool really good for everyone, there is a bit of noise from the nightclub opposite the hotel, it is a really clean place (maids are brilliant). Rooms are cleaned every day very well.

We did eat at the hotel but not very often but what we did eat was nice, I would recommend the roast beef (it was gorgeous).

Location is great, half way to town and half way to the beach each only being 10 minute walk but there is a dolmus (bus) every 5 minutes.

Staff are very friendly, they give themselves english names to help you.

Entertainment wasnt the best but what they did have was really good.

Yes I would visit this hotel again.

The Carina has an excellent location with wonderful views and very handy for the dolmus which runs right past the door.

We found it very clean and the apartments were of a higher standard than we expected for our first trip to Turkey.

The food was very disappointing so we didn,t eat there at all after the first few days - it was very expensive and not very good. The drinks were quite expensive and the bar staff were the only unfriendly people we came across in Turkey. The rest of the staff in the hotel were lovely especially the girl on reception.

We would definitely visit this hotel again just for the view and the glorious sunsets every night.

I found the Carina an excellent choice.

The rooms are pretty basic but cleaned every day all rooms have sea view with stunning sunsets from your balcony.

Pool is lovely very big and for sun lovers there were plenty sun loungers available and friendly staff would bring down your snacks and drinks to you.

The hotel put on a free Turkish welcome night food included and a traditional belly dancer there is a mini-market but is very basic and overpriced.

Dolmus bus into town from outside hotel 1 Lira (40p)or into ladies beach 1 Lira from 7am-midnight 10 min stroll into town. A great holiday.

The room was ample for 2 persons but for 4 (even if they were 12 year olds )it was very cramped. The beds were clean but very uncomfortable.

Seating was limited to 3 plastic garden chairs on the balcony! Okay perhaps we could have asked for a 4th but there was no room anyway.

Cooking facilities were abysmal, a 2 ring cooker is supplied but you cannot use both rings as it blows the fuse!! Staff were friendly but the reception staff were a bit glum.

The 'shop' was incredibly expensive and very very limited but you don't have to shop there do you? Air conditioning is expensive too and as the hotel seems to cater to mainly europeans it really should be supplied as standard or at the very least at a fraction of the cost.

Cleanliness was exemplary throughout our stay with the exception of the day before we left when no bins or waste was removed!! As you do not flush toilet paper in Turkey, but put it into a waste bin, this was pretty inexscusable.

The hotel restaurant did excellent meals but were incapable of flexibilty, everything came with chips, mash, rice and veg. even though we asked for say 'just chips' we invariably got the lot, and they were usually cold.

Yes we would go back as a couple but 4 people in those rooms was really pushing it particularly for the poor sap who gets the camp bed.

When I visited hotel Carina I fell in love with it straight away!

The hotel staff are very happy and helpful the bar staff are very happy and active yet they dont get no sleep at all!

The pool is very big and fun to go in the rooms are average but for a family of four its very cramp especially if you are getting changed!

The cleaners are always cleaning and very hygenic. The people who go to the hotel are very polite and friendly I even met 2 new friends there Kaz and Leigh.

The 4 th bed is a camp bed and can be uncomforable if you have sunburn on your shoulders. The table and chairs on the balcony are fine but no room for a 4 th chair.

Its close to everything. I will be going back next year for definate.

The hotel was fantastic.

We stayed in the hotel for one week and it was the best time of our lives.

The entertainment was really good.

The staff were absolutely amazing. They were all dressed smart and were really good with the guests. Most of them could understand English and talk back in English quite well.

I will definitely be visiting the hotel again next year or in the nearer future. It was a fantastic holiday !!

I visited Turkey for the first time on the 3rd of July 2005 and stayed at the Hotel Carina Studios. It was a great holiday.

All the staff were really friendly and we had a good laugh with them. They seemed to work all day and night to keep the guests happy which is really appreciated.

The rooms were lovely. Cleaners came every few days with fresh towels and bed sheets which was good.

The food was great (especially the pizzas) and the welcome meal on the Tuesday night was delicious and it was FREE which is really good !! Also on the Thursday night the Roast Beef etc were delicious aswell !

Overall its the best holiday I have been on and I will be definetely going back to the Carina.

Sean, Ricky, Antonio, Roberto, Ozzy, Jimmy, Jimmy Junior, and all the rest thanks for making our holiday so good !! Hope all you wonderful staff are there next year when I come to the hotel again.

Kusadasi 2006 Heer I Comeeee !!
