Amazing stay run by the best team 🙌
I visited Melissa gardens with my family inc two children age 6 and 10 and we had the most amazing holiday the staff at this hotel are so welcoming and have great energy to keep you entertained throughout your stay they are extremely hard workers and make individual efforts with each holiday maker the food was beautiful and a great menu offering lots of British food and good choice for the kids menu also and breakfast was equally as nice. There is a mini market just outside the entrance for those that choose to go self catering like we did but the food in the hotel and surrounding was too good not to eat out. The cleaners were lovely and always left things like swans on the bed (with the sheets) which the kids loved there was entertainment on an evening after dinner but you could also head out to the bar next door or into the old town which was simply beautiful and lots of ancient ruins to look at a lovely walk along the harbour lots of restaurants and bars to choose from nearby the bus stop was just outside and only a five min journey for 1 euro there is also a nightclub very close for those that like to party but not close enough to hear noise of as it was alone further along they did some great DJ events . Lots of shops nearby also they also do a pool party which the kids and adults had a great time the slide was great my kids spent alot of time on it and it's on most of the day the beach is also just a 5 min walk away and is amazing free sunbeds water and coffee the hotel run a free shuttle bus but we enjoyed the walk the man that runs the watersports was so lovely to us and allowed the kids some free rides the cocktails are amazing and they have plenty choice of drinks they have happy hour twice in the day two for one they have a tattoo parlour and spa on site just calnt thank the staff at Melissa enough we loved yous all and hopefully can return again soon highly recommend

Family Holiday 2026
Beautiful location, rooms clean, food good. A little more expensive this year. Emirhan was definitely the star of the show, such a happy, friendly guy. He made our stay memorable. Nothing was a hassle to him, he would go above & beyond for anyone. Very nice to see you again this year. 🫶🇹🇷
It was great I’d give the full holiday 8/10
We stayed at this hotel there was a party of 15 we all had a great time the staff was lovely couldn’t do enough for you the location was ok just had to catch busses everywhere the atmosphere was brilliant the staff always put a show on every night with a different theme each night rooms was ok cleaned to the standard of a 2* plus not the best but good the value for money was ok but everything is overpriced it is really expensive for drinks and food like 15 euro for a short or cocktail and even the efes was like £4 a drink and that’s there own brand food was reasonable I had a great steak 1 night but cost £65 without drinks even a kebab was dear £5 for a lolly but the service was 10/10 the lads couldn’t do enough jaz, mustaffa and Alfie 1 problem was a bar staff said my lad could swim and 1 staff member called amet dragged him out and slapped his back leaving a hand print but that was soon sorted other than that we had a good time with great memories

Would definitely come back again!
I had a wonderful stay here. All the staff were friendly and helpful and evening entertainment was fun. Bar staff provided an excellent fast service especially Yusuf who was always friendly and always willing to keep the bar open to serve everyone and play cards, he helped me have an amazing holiday. Kasım at reception was also very helpful no matter the time by ordering taxis to the airport and helped resolve any issues me and my family had whilst staying here. Overall it was a lovely place to stay helped by the lovely staff and location and I would definitely come back again!
