Ali Bey Resort

Lovely big hotel with massive grounds. Well kept and with tremendous amount of food everyday. Staff were good but most lacked in English which is in most of Turkey. My only two quibbles about the place are the number of sunbeds available and people reserving them but not using them at all. So plenty of beds with towels but no one in them. The secound is the hairdressers who seem to think that they can charge whatever fihure vomes in their mimd. My wife had a trim which was supposed to start at 8 euros but at the end the man increased his the charge from 30 upto 40 Euros. Totally made up on the spot. Not at all pleased with the couple. The management need to check on the charges and make them print these.... Would I use this hotel again, yes!!

It was such an nice holiday with entertainment team.Special thanks to Setenay ,Arda and Sevim especially.They made the best holiday ,all activites was super with them.Archery ,Darts ,Waterpolo ,Watergym ,Yoga was so good definitely recommended !

We have just returned from a wonderful week here at AliBey. We are a family of four, with two children ages 16 and 10.

First impressions of the hotel were excellent. Checked in quickly. Given a lift to our room on a buggy and had help with our luggage to the room.

The hotel is exceptionally clean, set in beautiful grounds. You feel as if you are in a tropical paradise. The hotel grounds are so well kept and cared for. It really is stunning.

Our room was a double room, again exceptionally clean, comfortable beds, a fully stocked mini bar.

The room was cleaned every day, fresh towels replaced daily. Beds changed every other day, wine and a fruit platter left in our room on arrival which was nice. Shampoo, conditioner and shower gel all provided.

The service we received throughout the resort was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. All staff work incredibly hard and every single staff member we encountered were friendly and polite and we were always served as quickly as possible.

Tubna was so wonderful and even remembered our drinks order. She had a chat with us at the pool side and is incredibly hard working. Please give this lady a pay rise and a promotion!

Hasan served us in the restaurant and was very friendly and helpful. Setnay was lovely as well and welcomed us at the pool and had a chat with our daughters.

The food in the restaurant was really nice, freshly cooked and plenty of choice. Lots of fresh meat, vegetables, pasta dishes and the desserts were exceptional. Cheese toasties, fresh fruit were available as well.

The only thing I felt was missing was a better berries selection for breakfast. There were no strawberries, blueberries or blackberries which would have added a better variety, but we didn’t go hungry! It’s just a personal choice.

My only slight criticism of the restaurant would be the outside seating area. It was far too hot to sit outside so maybe a sheltered canopy or more fans would make it more comfortable.

We ate inside every other night but we didn’t mind as it was lovely and cool. Tables were set as quickly as possible and lots of choice of wines. We would have preferred to sit outside to eat if it was a bit cooler.

The drinks at the resort were amazing. The cocktails are all made fresh to order and the drinks menu is vast. I was very impressed compared to previous resorts we’ve stayed in, in Turkey. I highly recommend the pinacolada’s and mojitos.

For lunch there is a jacket potato stand, the potatoes are lovely and a great choice of toppings available.

There is a cafe with air-con which is lovely to have a cool down, with lots of cakes and ice creams to choose from. All were delicious. Branded ice creams available throughout the resort as well.

The cappuccinos are amazing and the best I have tried in Turkey so far. There are crepes and waffles available, all made fresh in front of you.

The buffet was lovely for lunch, so was the beach front cafe. All good service and plenty of choice. Pizza, fresh fruit, pasta. All delicious.

The pool areas are clean, and are all warm water. Plenty of sunbeds. Towels available. There is a cold water plunge pool as well!

The adult only area is exceptional and my most favourite part of the resort.

You can scan drinks and get them delivered to your sunbed which is an amazing service. It was so relaxing and you feel a world away from your normal life. All drinks arrived quickly.

There is a water aerobics class available which is lots of fun. The entertainment at night was good but would of liked to see some more live singers rather than dance acts each evening. Mini disco for the children. Overall the entertainment was good. Our children enjoyed it.

They also did karaoke which was fun to watch. Lots of tables to enjoy drinks after your meal.

The one thing that made our holiday that extra special were the amount of cats living on the resort. They are so well cared for by staff, lifeguards even giving them water.

Our children absolutely loved the cats and kittens. We fell in love with a black one which we named ‘shadow’. We were really sad to leave him behind and say goodbye.

It’s so lovely to see that the resort welcomes the cats and care for them, leaving them free to roam and socialise with guests. I hope this is something that will continue to happen at this resort, especially being an animal lover myself.

Overall we have had an amazing stay, the resort is beautiful, the cats are beautiful and everything else was excellent. We couldn’t really fault anything at all.

We will definitely look to return again in the future.
