Marmaris Bay Resort - Adults Only

Hayvan Dostu Otel. Merhaba, 2 gece konaklama yaptığımız otelimizden memnun olarak ayrıldık. Evcil hayvanımızla birlikte konakladık. Girişte evcil hayvanımız için gecelik konaklama ücreti ve bir kereye mahsus oda dezenfekte ücreti verdim. Evcil hayvanınızla bulunabileceğiniz ayrı bir plaj bulunmakta, fakat pet kabul edilen restoran maalesef yok. Otelin her noktasında yürüyüş yapılabilir köpeğinizle. Otelin artı ve eksileri; +Yemekleri, plajı, güler yüzlü personellerinin olması, temizliği ***et yeterli. -Otel tamamen yokuşlu olarak konumlandığı için, ring seferleri arttırılabilir. Büyük plaja yakın havlu alım noktası eklenebilir.(insan merdiven inip çıkmaktan havlu noktasına gitmek bile istemiyor:)). Odaları havalandırabilmek adına pencere eklenebilir, kapıyı açık bırakıp havalandırmak olmuyor, doğanın göbeğinde bir otel. Gece etkinlikleri arttırılabilir. Karasinek biraz fazla, ama buna pek yapabilecek bir şey yok gibi. Genel anlamda gidilip kalınabilecek bir otel. Teşekkürler Marmaris Bay Resort.

I think we need to firstly talk about all the reviews that are saying there are loads of steps to climb at this resort. There are a number of steps but this is due to the resort being nestled into the mountains, the trade off is that you have amazing views and your accommodation is in amongst the green trees. If you aren’t used to steps maybe request a room lower down? Food was what we expected from a place that catered for over 350/400+ people. Drinks menu was limited, but every request for something off menu was done, from G&T to Espresso martini’s. To the people leaving scathing reviews - you have all you can eat and drink with 26°C sun (in Oct) the staff can not be more helpful and amenable with any request, even at the end of what can only be a long season we were met with only smiles. Can not recommend more for a chilled break from UK winter. Resort is a rare find.

Marmaris Bay Resort - Sep 24 The location is lovely built around original standing trees and with stunning views across the harbour and yacht marina for lunch and dinner. The ‘relax pool’ is exactly as the name suggests with bar and toilets close by - nice. Upon arrival at 11pm we had to wait an hour to get a golf trolley lift to our room, with no offer of refreshments - not great after a day of travelling. The site is quaint, almost ‘Lilliputian’ or ‘pixie’ like, built into natural hills but with very steep, uneven steps and decidedly precarious wooden handrails. Signage to rooms is almost non existent and confusing to say the least, particularly in the dark with mostly unlit, uneven, rickety steps - unsafe tbh. The main restaurant, buffet style, is only ok with a similar menu every sitting. There was a constant struggle for cups, and tea spoons and salt pots were always empty despite regular reporting. While ‘our’ waiter, Ahmet, was great, friendly and helpful, generally uniforms for male staff were dirty and scruffy. The fish restaurant ‘Zest’ is in the most beautiful setting, on a pier overlooking the harbour, and the food was lovely - thank you. I never saw any maintenance being undertaken and garden areas and footpaths were unkempt, dirty and scruffy. Cleaning, and room service, were only adequate and decor was distinctly shabby. The evening entertainment was very average, though I’m not one for loud music. Because there are no outside walls there was the ever pervading smell of cigarette smoke throughout the main restaurant, bar building. We used the water taxi across the bay into Marmaris, which we enjoyed. We also booked two trips but made our own way back from the first ‘hard sell’ in various shops in Marmaris centre. We subsequently cancelled the second planned trip. Our ‘rep’ ‘Angela’ was helpful. Would we return; very doubtful.
