We visited for the first time this year, we will deffinatly be going back. We saw mixed reviews about the food, but we was not disappointed, so much variety, our fussy daughter found something every day and was even willing to try new foods which she loved. All staff friendly, helpful and alot of fun. The entertainment was brilliant special mention to Ozzy for the entertainment the whole entertainment team put in alot of time and effort for guest and make everyone welcome working all day long. We also used the spa twice its worth every penny. The Ladies and Murat at the spa are brilliant Murat was so helpful and gave us alot of insight to the local area as we had not been before. Sunbed wars wasn't really an issue for us either plenty of sunbeds and space for extras.
We have not met a more amazing team of people in a hotel before. People in reviews said the rooms are small ours was perfect for the 3 of us and the housekeeping team were so friendly and very efficient. The hotel has plenty to do is in a brilliant location. Its clean and tidy. I can not praise the hotel and team enough.

We stayed at the Grand Ideal Premium in Marmaris as a larger group of friends to celebrate a birthday, and we had such a fantastic week from start to finish.
A special mention has to go to Murat and his Bali masseurs at the spa. He was incredibly welcoming, and the whole experience left us feeling completely relaxed and refreshed—exactly what we needed during our stay.
The food was truly a highlight of the holiday. The chefs were amazing and consistently delivered five-star quality meals every day. There was such a wide variety of tasty dishes and desserts, and we especially loved the chefs at the back of the restaurant who freshly grilled meat—they were not only skilled but also so friendly.
The entertainment staff were great fun and always made sure there was something going on, creating a lively and friendly atmosphere throughout the day and evening. Turkish night was a real treat, with traditional dancing that made the experience feel extra special.
We also want to thank the lovely housekeeping ladies who kept everything spotless, and the attentive bar staff who were always smiling and ready with a drink. The lounge really spoiled us with excellent wine and fantastic cocktails every evening.
Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate a birthday with friends. Thank you to everyone at the hotel for making it such an amazing and memorable week—we would definitely return!

I honestly can say I was very happy with this hotel, I’ve got a great last-minute deal with TUI, and I was upgraded to a lovely suite on arrival, the staff were really polite and very presentable, especially the reception staff Koom, Efe, Melez and Selin. The huge Pool was fabulous, I would like to say it is quite deep so people with young children need to keep an eye on them! because the pool is really deep there are lots of inflatables which you can use and it’s really nice to see the Pool team doesn’t throw them away, I know other hotels that have done this so that guests have to buy more from the shop! When you come out of the hotel, it is just a short walk down the road to the beach, the hotel itself doesn’t own its own part of the beach but there are lots of area areas where if you buy a drink they will let you use the sunbeds free of charge. I use the à la carte restaurant once during my stay and had the Turkish six course meal I’m very glad I did it was a great experience. I had seen reviews advising you to take your own cup for your soft drinks by the pool, otherwise you get little paper cups, so I was very pleased I took mine. I went to breakfast a couple of times lots of choice of patisserie, fruits, yoghurts, eggs and toast everything you could expect from a breakfast buffet abroad, personally I thought the lunch buffet was better than the dinner buffet! But neither were bad and lots of variation, so something for everybody! just one negative point I was in room 433 which was a beautiful room overlooking the pool but the bed wasn’t very comfortable, it was really hard like it had no spring in the mattress at all. It could’ve done with a decent mattress topper it’s a shame because I had several bad nights sleep, I was thinking about asking to change rooms but the room was fantastic other than that. Fridges in the room were stopped up daily with lots of bottles of cold water and fruit juice, towels are provided for the Pool. There isn’t an entertainment team who will walk round to see if you want to play darts or pool during the day. We also put on a show six nights a week. (not sundays)

Where to even start! This hotel is absolutely gorgeous the lobby and dining areas definitely worthy of its 5 star rating! Pool is lovely too and the entertainment crew were fantastic. The rooms on the surface are beautiful very spacious and super comfy beds out of the whole stay I’d say the only downfall is the room needing some maintenance it was a little rough around the edges. By far the best part of my experience was the spa! Elixir spa you are brilliant! We booked before and after sun experiences and I cannot recommend this combo enough, my fiancee liked it so much he went for more on his birthday! The ultimate relaxing holiday! The evening entertainment far exceeded my expectations as well.

We stayed here as a family of 5, it was a lovely hotel in a great location, 45 minute walk along the beach into the town, plenty of bars/restaurants to stop for drinks along the way.
Hotel was very clean, the food was also very nice and plenty of different food selections to please everyone. The snacks between half 12 and 4 was lovely especially the waffles and chicken shish.
The entertainment was good, what made it was Iso & Diego, every day during the day we'd play Darts, Table tennis, Killer Pool and soft archery.
Every evening they would have a game of bingo which would cost 300tl per strip and we actually won one night 5000tl, a bottle of wine & and entertainment t-shirt. The DJ kept the music playing all day by the pool at a good level, not to loud or too quiet. Every evening after bingo there would be something different on, like a magician, karaoke, turkish j dancers etc.
Overall, it was a great holiday, we would definitely be back.
