As my first time all inclusive this was a joke.

The room was ok, as clean but damp bed covers 1 pillow and 3 days no water, the food we had 3 times at the most. In 2 weeks we had to eat out the rest of the holiday no food for young children, water filled up from a tap around the back and then poured into big container next to orange, if you want bottled water you have to pay. You get beer in half pint glass and watered down vodka. The bar staff was very rude.

I will go back to Turkey but never to this hotel as I don't like to be sick and spend more money on food and drink. My dog wo;nt eat that food

The All inclusive menu lacked imagination. There was very little deviation from chicken, chips and rice.

Hotel cleanliness was poor. Signs of damp problems throughout and poor maintenance regarding regular washing dawn of pool area and sunbeds. Glasses around the pool side caused concern due to regular breakages.

Hotel staff quite young and naive and we felt more Hotel discipline was required.

Entertainment was limited and if a number of guests had plans to go out for the evening then the entertainment was cancelled.

All inclusive meals were chicken rice and chips every day for the first 2 days my daughter lived on chips and bread.

There were no extra pillows no extra beds the rooms were brushed but not mopped, unless you were 3ft you could only go on the balcony (window box) one at a time.

The sunbeds were dirty and the table where they served tea and coffee I don't think had ever had the table cloth changed.

The location was good only a short taxi/bus ride to main town and handy for other restaurants (you will need them)

Hotel staff were very young and in experienced allowing glasses in pool, which did get broken.

The entertainment was virtually non existent and very amateur.

I would go back to Ovacik tomorrow as it is a lovely friendly place, but I will never return to this hotel.

The hotel room was clean with a great view of the mountain, the food was basic but tasty and the location was great.

The younger staffs were well mannered and helpful although the older staff seemed a little arrogant.

The entertainment was ok but considering the cost of the holiday it was excellent value for money.

I went to Balkaya with my friend and her parents. I stayed all inclusive and you certainly got a lot for your money.

The hotel cleaner was brilliant, she cleaned our room every day and 3 days out of the 2 weeks she made swans out of the towels and laid rose petals over too.

The hotel food wasn't my taste but they did boast a wide selection of food for different tastes.

The location of the hotel is ideal if you want to go to the main area of Hisaranou which is just a short walk away.

The hotel staff are very friendly and go out of their way to help you or even just to have a chat! I especially liked Cenk who was very talkative and a right laugh. There was entertainment on 3 times a week and it ranged from belly dancers to a traditional nigh.

Overall I really enjoyed Balkaya and I am going back next year and I am really looking forward to it.
