- Marbella Hotel

Sea views are part of the package at the Hotel Marbella, which has an on-the-beach setting. The centre of Marmaris is an easy drive away, too.A pretty seaside promenade is all that stands between this property and a long sand-and-shingle stretch of beach. You've got a few bars and restaurants along the shore, and Marmaris' livelier centre is a quick bus ride away.The hotel hasn't long had a new lick of paint, so things are really modern. Bedrooms feature huge floral wall motifs and shiny silver soft furnishings,while the restaurant has a tropical island mural on the ceiling.The outdoor pool comes with picturesque views,on a clear day you will be able to see other islands that are far out to sea.On the sun terrace there are sunbeds with parasols.The restaurant is really chic, with a bright ceiling that has a painted on beach,there's turquoise tiles on the walls and indoor and outdseating.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
We stayed here for a week this month (September 2026) in room 102 on the first floor. We were given a triple room with a balcony and sea view. We ate in the A La Carte restaurant. Our starters (soups) were lovely. I then asked for a medium steak for my main. The veg and sides looked good but the steak was very overcooked and dry. It also looked like flank/frying steak, a cheap cut. It took more than 10 minutes to get anyone's attention as our waiter, Soydun and the other waiter had, immediately after serving us, moved to the pool bar. When I did manage to get his attention (by raising my hand), I politely and quietly informed him of the issue. He stared at my plate, forked the steak, turned it over and, without a word, snatched my plate, my sides and my husbands sides away, seemingly in anger! No replacement was offered which left me without a meal for the evening! Later he tried to take my husband's main even though he wasn't finished. When we asked for the bill, he avoided eye contact again and mumbled "sorry about the steak".and asked us which room we were in??
We have visited different areas in Turkiye many times over 40 years and have never witnessed such appalling service.
On a more positive note. The hotel is spotless. The cleaning staff do an amazing job. The rooms are spacious and housekeeping is done every day. You are provided with coffee sachets, one large and 2 x small bottles of water for your first night only. These are not replenished as they are in most other hotels. The breakfast is excellent, lots of variety with free hot drinks and juice refills but you have to wear a wristband for the entirety of your stay. I thought that was strange when it was just bed and breakfast. The location of the hotel is good, right on the beach and the hotel reception will provide you with beach towels. At this end of the beach, you definitely need water shoes as there are a lot of pebbles and stones. The man who attends to the beach providing bar/food service works very hard and was pleasant but, because of the restaurant experience, we would not return here.
Cheeky week get away as per previous reviews still an excellent choice all the staff are excellent and so helpful. Special thanks to Muge on reception who helped us move to room 106 fantastic size and full sea view. Our go to place if we want to just get away and know what we are getting with no risk
An absolutely amazing hotel. Spotlessly clean, all of the staff are friendly and helpful. I’ve stayed here at least 4-5 times now and every time is better than the last. Private beach is run by Ferhan who does an amazing job making sure everyone is relaxed. Breakfast is superb with a very good selection. Bar snacks and meals in the restaurant are fantastic. Reception team are very helpful and the guys at the bar are just a breath of fresh air. Thank you again for an amazing stay.🙏 see you all again soon.🇹🇷🌞🙏
We’ve had another fabulous stay at the Marbella Hotel in Marmaris. Every single member of staff does such an amazing job and works so hard to make sure everyone is happy and well looked after.
The whole hotel is spotlessly clean, the food is absolutely delicious, and the friendly, welcoming atmosphere makes it such a special place to stay.
A huge thank you to all the wonderful staff for making our holiday so enjoyable once again. We’re already looking forward to coming back next year! ❤️🇹🇷
Until next year — Hoşça kalın, seneye görüşürüz! 🇹🇷❤️ (Goodbye, see you next year!)
