A Truly Unforgettable Vacation! ❤️
We had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect holiday!
Everything exceeded our expectations. The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, the beach is stunning, and the overall atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing.
The staff were exceptional—always kind, friendly, welcoming, and ready to help with a smile. The waiters provided excellent service and made every meal enjoyable. The animation team was fantastic, bringing so much energy and fun every day, and the pool activities were entertaining and very well organized.
The food was delicious, the hotel was spotless, and every detail made us feel welcome and cared for. You can truly see the dedication and passion of everyone working here.
Thank you for giving us such wonderful memories. We had an incredible time and will definitely recommend this hotel to our family and friends. We hope to come back again one day!

We stayed at Flora Garden Beach Hotel in Turkey for 7 nights, and our overall experience was very positive. The staff were incredibly friendly, always smiling, polite, and happy to help. A special mention goes to the barman in the Piano Room for serving White Russian :)
The food was very good, with plenty of variety. There was always something tasty to choose from, so we never struggled to find meals we enjoyed. The drinks were also of good quality, which was another pleasant surprise.
Our favourite spot in the hotel was the Boho Bar. It's the perfect place to relax, enjoy the beautiful sea views, and listen to the calming background music. It created a wonderful atmosphere, especially in the evenings.
Overall, the hotel is well maintained and in good condition, although some areas could benefit from a little modernization. However, this didn't take away from our enjoyable stay.
My wife and I had a fantastic 7-night holiday, and we would definitely recommend Flora Garden Beach Hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Turkey.

The hotel’s pros- The animation team at the hotel are amazing, huge thank you to sera and isilay for lots of fun around the pool and evening entertainment so inclusive. Adam the roller drinks service boy was also a great addition around the pool. The Cons- the food was terrible with very little choice turkey and chicken served every day and evening the soups were very poor and bread options limited. Spaghetti bolognaise was pasta with just a basic tomato with sparse speckles of mince. Breakfast was our favourite meal of the day being a fresh omelette the only hot food we received in the buffet area. The lady who made fresh pitta type bread with cheese in a hut near the beach was also a life saver. The salads were okay with a good variety. The pool bar was okay for food but still never piping hot always lukewarm. The beach bar was a nice place to relax with a cocktail.The most local shops were 15 mins away on the bus easy enough stops outside hotel. Side was two busses away roughly 40 mins travel. Taxi 60/70 euro each way to side.
*location - stunning sunsets but out of the way.
*food - poor choice, poor quality
* staff- fantastic nothing is to much trouble
. Hotel grounds - pretty and well maintained loved the gardens.
Coffee shop- fantastic service.
Overall great relaxing holiday just really need to sort the food out my husband is not fussy and he really struggled. We did go to the steakhouse on site that cost us an extra £70 but it was worth it.

Despite presenting itself as a 5-star resort, Floria Beach Garden is, in my honest opinion, nowhere near 5-star standard. At best, I would rate it as a 3-star hotel. The gap between what is advertised and what you actually experience is simply too large.
I would NOT recommend this hotel. I genuinely regret choosing this resort.
THE GOOD:
The waiters, bartenders, housekeeping staff and other frontline employees were extremely friendly, polite, helpful, fast and responsive. They deserve much more credit than the management.
The pizzas at the Boho Snack Restaurant were excellent and probably the best food we had during our stay.
The cocktails at all the bars were very good, with professional bartenders who knew how to prepare proper drinks.
A special mention to Abdollah smily Ice Cream man. He was very friendly and welcoming, and his ice creams were genuinely excellent. His positive attitude was one of the highlights of our stay.
The live music was also enjoyable.
THE BAD:
The reception staff were rude, unhelpful and unwilling to properly acknowledge or take responsibility for the problems we reported. Instead of solving issues, they often tried to deny or minimize them. For a hotel claiming to be 5-star, this is unacceptable.
The food at breakfast, lunch and dinner was nothing special. There was very little variety and the buffet was repetitive every day. The same olives, yogurt, tomatoes and cucumbers were simply placed in several different bowls and locations to create the appearance of variety. The grilled meats were dry and the overall food was disappointing.
There was NO INTERNET in our bungalow. We were told it would be fixed in four days, which was basically the end of our holiday.
Our bungalow also had several technical problems with lighting and electricity. A loud electrical contactor noise kept us awake at night.
We asked for a second room key card and were charged €10. I have stayed in hotels all over the world and this is the first time I have ever been charged for an additional key card.
The sewage system in the room was clearly not functioning properly. At times there was an unbearable sewage/toilet smell coming into the room, and we had to keep the bathroom fan running continuously.
The location is very inconvenient. The airport transfer took around THREE HOURS because the bus stopped at many other hotels. For the return flight, we had to be ready around SIX HOURS before departure. This wastes a huge part of the holiday.
The air conditioning in the main restaurant was not working properly. I reported it to the manager and was simply told that the technical team had checked it and nothing could be done. In Antalya’s hot weather, this is unacceptable.
FINAL VERDICT:
This was supposed to be a relaxing holiday, but instead it was filled with technical problems, poor customer service, repetitive food and unresolved complaints.
The frontline staff were good, but good employees cannot compensate for poor management and a resort that does not deliver the standard it advertises.
In my opinion, this is NOT a 5-star resort. It feels much closer to a 3-star hotel.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I regret choosing this resort and would absolutely not stay here again.

Me & my partner booked a very last minute holiday here for 1 week for my partners birthday.
We stayed in the Lake House room with the swim up pool. This was the highlight of our holiday, the room & pool was just amazing, so beautiful & very clean! Room was cleaned everyday, me & my partner wake up late so did have the house keeping walk in a couple times while we was sleeping. Did have to ask once to get the mini fridge filled back up, but was done every time after that.
Food in the main restaurant was just your typical standard all inclusive food, nothing to write home about but was something for every body.
The best place for food in the early afternoon would be the beach snack bar! Pizza was lovely & so was the doner.
The steakhouse restaurant was included with our booking but I believe with standard rooms it is extra £35pp. Now if I had to pay I would not be mad at all. It was a 5 course meal & every single course was absolutely amazing. Me & my partner was shocked at how good it was. The steak was great; they come round & ask how you would like it cooked. They keep an eye on your drinks & keep them topped up. Just amazing. Definitely worth it.
This was our second visit to Turkey, we loved it. It was 32°C very very hot! Didn’t seem to cool down in the evenings. Hotels aircon seemed to be struggling with the heat but room aircon was working fine after it kicked in.
Entertainment was ok, hit & miss some nights. When the evening entertainment was on at the Boho bar, had the queue for a seat & even then people were rushing/running to chairs. If not there at the correct time, very lucky if you find a place to sit.
Overall, would come again if booking the same room. Staff was friendly & helpful.
Only negative for us was not being able to get late check out. Our flight was 0:50am & transfer pick up was 7:45pm. I understand that late check out is never guaranteed & they did mention there was someone booked in the room & they needed 2 hours to clean for the next guest. But it got to 7:30pm after being out the room since 12pm & there was no body checked into the room.
