Terrible damp smelly unrenivated room given on top floor. They said madame we can make perfume to smell better!! .I had to wait 4 hours for a room finally got one at 4am. Totally squashed pool areas..music blasting throughout day and night..never a break..food not nice all cold or lukewarm..this is an old hotel that needs massive upgrading...Terrible waste of money £1200 paid for 1 person. No way 5*
Castival hotel
Staying at Castival for a week fly and flop holiday. I was a bit worried reading the reviews prior to arriving but have been pleasantly surprised thus far, only 2 days in though😬. The public areas of the hotel are pleasant, more 4 star than TUI’s 5, and the food has been generally quite good. The rooms are more 3 star though and could do with updating generally. We’re in a room with a sea view and balcony but it’s still a bit tatty round the edges. The hotel employees are generally quite pleasant with a special mention to Anzhelika who helped out with the customer services when the lady in there was a bit overwhelmed and slightly miserable when people were trying to book the à la carte restaurants. The bar staff are mainly quite friendly too.

Not a good experience
Arrived at 22.30 pm 10/09/2026 with Jet 2 holidays on an inclusive holiday - allocated room 1015 - as my pictures will show this was clearly a disabled room specifically for disabled people , the room had extra wide outward opening doors- the bathroom was a wet room and the toilet had handles with a pull chord - the wardrobe had clothes rails which were only 4 feet from the floor I would imagine for better wheelchair access When going onto the balcony the view was limited but had a very noisy generator for the hotel air conditioning right outside the balcony This was noisy all night which made sleeping difficult ( images attached) There was no safety deposit safe in the room which meant carrying our money and passports around with us We asked to change rooms and initially was told that the hotel was full and a change was not possible but to come back to reception at 11 am which we did again to be told that no room was available but again to come back to reception at 1300 - again we returned and were given a different room on the second floor looking out onto the road !! We did contact Jet 2 via the jet 2 app and a rep contacted us after we had been allocated a new room . This hotel is given a 3 star plus rating by Jet 2 but I’m afraid in our opinion it is lower than that - the pool area although nice was very dirty underfoot and we were forever finding cigarette butts and Ashe around the floor To be fair this hotel caters mainly for German and Eastern European guests - the food is based around those nationalities - food was repetitive - mostly Luke warm and to be honest not to our taste or liking Unless you like having salad with chips and broccoli for breakfast
Most places like to be paid in euros including the hotel and clearly dislike being paid in Turkish lira
But if you like fake designer clothing or hand bags this is the place for you
But as for the hotel, our experience was not a good one and not helped by unpleasant unhelpful staff
We wouldn’t be returning here Thats a fact
