Glad you enjoyed it
Wow! 😮 I have never seen a hotel so big! The kids section is awesome
Too big the restaurant had a 1000 seats.
Serving breakfast lunch and dinner.
Plus other food outlets on the site.
Lovely hotel hope you are well Marg..
Take care
Evenin that looks a great hotel was it busy? So nice to see where you have been spotlessly clean I’d get lost it’s massive 😂 brilliant vispdeo hope there’s more to come till the next one 😊
Yes we are going to try and be out and about every day
Beautiful ❤️
Who me ?
Superb video mate , place looks unbelievable 👏 thanks for sharing
Looking to go here at start of September next year so this video helps a lot
Did you stay at the aqua resort or the beach one ??? See their is 2 hotels place looks class
How is the food also mate .
Well done and loved the video , I'm off to book that 😂💪💪👏👏👏
The food is ok not the best but I am Open minded when it comes to food will try anything I never went hungry .
I eat a lot of salad I mix a match my food .
I didn't really have a problem with it but a lot of the comments you will hear it's about the food.
The pool area is so busy very hard to get some beds even though the place is huge again I'm not a massive sun worshiper so it didn't really bother me...
I did do another video of what's around the hotel I don't know if you've seen that one or not.
I'm not too well at the moment but if you want any more information give us a message
@@BlackpoolandBeyond hello mate and thank you very much for reply
Oh really , I suppose that is the same for all inclusive hotels with regards to food , and yep looks really busy so I guess it be hard for a bed ,,,, not really sure now as really want to book all inclusive as turkey is not a cheap place anymore as we just back from self catering in icmeler and the food and drink prices where nothing but a rip off in my opinion
Oh mate really sorry to hear that and hope you feel better and get well soon , take care and thank you

Thanks for the video. I see all the signs for extra's are in euro's, do they also take Turkish Lira as the exchange rate is better? Thanks.
They say you get better value for money with Turkish lira but they don't want Turkish lira they want euro or pounds.
Personally you're only need Turkish lira for buses.
I didn't even take any Turkish lira this year.
And the differences very minimal..
Pounds euros and a card that's my own preference I've been going to Turkey since 1990
I’m blown away by the size of the place I originally wanted to come to this hotel some reviews put me off and the area as it’s not near the dolpharium . Did you at any point feel the need to leave the hotel or get bored .? Thanks
No I was fine there was 11 of Us family but I came to relax.
I only done one trip.
There is another video showing people shops around it and restaurants if you haven't seen that one let me know.
It's 20 minutes to alanya .
I've been going to Turkey for 34 years on and off in various locations and it's now my time to relax.
Anyway I hope you found the video helpful
That's a huge resort and food looks nice too, how long does it take too get there from the airport
About .1.30 with a direct direct private transfer.
It's about a 20-minute taxi ride into alanya .
This area is still being built up as you can see from the videos.
They've got about three hotels in the close area .
As I say it's not in the centre of alanya.
But still plenty going on .
Any more information or help let me know
Nice one mark,I'm gonna check out the prices and flights for September ty
We’re coming here at end of June. Hope it will be ok! 😂. Is the wifi ok here?
The Wi-Fi is ok it works all the way around the island in the rooms around the swimming pools etc .
I believe you can pay for a upgrade on the internet not sure how much it is.
It did have one or two moments where it didn't work the overall I thought the internet was okay and we were there for two weeks
Hi mark,
We going to this hotel in june, first holiday abroad with the kids... love this video. Very informative and good shot of the facilities.... im just wondering what currency to take. I could see euros in your videos so is this better than taking lira?
What about the safe in the room, did you have to pay for this?
Thanks for making this video 😊
Hello well in my own opinion. Always take a card with you one that doesn't charge you overseas. Almost everywhere takes card so that's very good for security reasons.
The other thing that I do I take English money and euros.
This is the money they want.
The only time you really need some Turkish lira if you're going to use a local bus.
Obviously the cash I take is always kept very hidden with myself..
When you go to the market on a Sunday which is huge I don't know whether you saw the video of the market and the surrounding shops if not I can post it to you.
They will deal in Euro and English pound.
It makes life easier you're not working in your head everything out all the time.
Everybody will give you a different answer but that's my view.
Ano I first started going to Turkey 34 years ago.
Any more information please let me know
Thanks, I just seen your other video. Thank you. Was thinking of taking a post office card with euros and some sterling and euros with us then . We going for 10 days. Really looking forward to it. Your video was brilliant to see how many shops and restaurants that are so close to the hotel all in walking distance 👍
Did you have a safe in the room, was there a charge for this? Sorry to bombard you with questions ☺
@@HollieLloyd-lf4uw is absolutely fine if you continue to ask questions.
No this is safe in the room and it's free.
And we arrived in saltwell there's no shops anywhere it was dark.
But the next day we realised there was quite a bit around .
It is an area that still be an established so you will find a lot of half built buildings and a lot of land sitting on its own. Empty but you seen the other video now. So you know what I mean
Ok anything else you think of let me know.
Regards
@@BlackpoolandBeyond brilliant thank you.... one more question. Did you book with jet 2. When we booked 18 months ago it was advertised jet 2 gives you extra wrist bands to access more drinks than what is included in the usual package. Did you have this option or see this option while you stayed?
Kind regards 😊
@@HollieLloyd-lf4uw no sun Express.
With jet2 and you can use it in and you can use it in other areas where we cannot
This will be our first family holiday with kids, how hard is it to get sun loungers(will i need to be up at 7am every day on holiday)
Also food wise will my kids be ok?
Whats the air con like in rooms?
Thanks mate brilliant vid
The air con is spot on in the rooms..
The Wi-Fi is brilliant. Food well I'm very open minded and I do eat different coloured foods if you know what I mean.
But your kids would be ok eating food.
Pizza chips burgers.
Plenty of food snack places if you don't want to sit in the restaurant or lunch time just before you go through the tunnel onto the island some food places..
It is a very very busy hotel.
The restaurants got 1000 seats a lot more people than that staying in the hotel ...
Just going back to the food over the island there is a place what does burgers .
Big mixed reviews about the food.
I personally don't have a problem with it.
Sun lounges yes you know what it is.
Lol .
Any more information before you go in any more detail please let me know.
I meant to say there is another video of where all the nearby shops are and food outlets so if you can't find that let me know and I'll send you a link.
Brilliant thanks for reply am the same will eat anything, but hopefully we get the sun loungers and kids just wallop the pizzas 🤣
Thanks for the information mate
@@davidkwvne6857 you're welcome glad you found it helpful.
Yeah there was 11 of us there on 1st May not everybody enjoyed the food.
Buy mix and match everything and I do eat food that's colourful if you know what I mean.
Take care and have a great holiday
Is there a map for each area that you can post a picture off. Was there a dolphin enclosure section?
No dolphin area. I visited there in May and I just done one video of the hotel and the grounds and I done another video of the surrounding shops and bars
Great to see an English speaking tour.... Great job 👍👍🤟
Glad you enjoy the content .
Class video Mark what's the gym like has it got weights
I never got into the gym and I forgot to film it I have seen a picture yes they've got runny machines and free weights and it's got obviously air conditioning there I do know that but I do apologize I just forgot to film it
@@BlackpoolandBeyond Thanks
Yes it's got three weights and running machines. .
Add all the good intentions of using it but never used it
Aparantly the food is bad? Is there any food for fussy children . Thanks
The food is not as bad as what people make out you're always find yourself something to eat.
I just mixed a match food items and I'm not really a fussy eater tba.
There was 11 of us and some of them didn't like the code.
But I don't go to Turkey to eat what is 100% English food...
Asking about food is very difficult and you will get mixed reviews.
Overall I think the choice is great I don't think you'll be disappointed but it's very difficult for me because everyone is different.
I hope you found the video interesting thank you
it is not ultra all inclusive, we tried to point out on a video small variety of drinks & limited ice creams availability included in all inclusive, and the stands with food around ...big disappointment
I believe that some hotels do have all these extras you have to pay for I haven't been to many all-inclusive in my life but I know there's always certain drinks when they are not local you have to pay for and also a game with some other bits and pieces... I know some people that have been to hotels and they've paid a lot lot money more and everything is completely free so I think at the end of the day you pay for what you get.
Are you weren't happy with the food
Ultra All Inclusive - Hotel.......you are wrong....I've been to the miracle resort, they gave everything, including fruit and ice cream...everywhere on the beach...this one was the worst...4000e.. everything was free
thanks for this... what about any evening entertainment
The evening entertainment is on the island around the area where there's some shops in the circle also very close to that point is where you join the beach where there is some music playing I think early evening something for children and then adults later on.
To be honest I wasn't that impressed with what they laid on for entertainment.
So I can't come into much on it because I never attended.
How do I book a cabana for €20 a days please?
Sorry I can't help you on this booking and the information you want
We have booked for next June, what's all inclusive , all tea , coffee machines u showed in beginning not video, what about that burger shop, ??, just to get a rough idea of what u do and don't pay for
If you want to send me your email address I will give you a bit more in depth detail of a few more things.
My email address is seasiders 07@hotmail.com.
If you're not happy with this I'm happy just to give you a long message on here.
@BlackpoolandBeyond - Hi could you put it on here if possible, im going next april and would also like to know, whats included and whats not etc
do you knw if the hotel had wheelchairs or mobilty scootrs i can hire
Sorry I can't help with that one.
I would throw this out to the actual official group .
Sorry I can't be any help
Is this hotel really as bad as all the reviews please ?
I don't think so . The hotel it's nice is very clean the staff are very good.
The maids are very nice and leave you plenty of drinks in the room.
Don't expect to go over any English food and food that way we cook it at home.
You got to be open-minded what you taste.
There is plenty of selection you will not go hungry. The food to certain degrees doesn't look very appetizing but I don't go by how it looks I go by how it tastes.
In the daytime there's many food you can get. Pizza's jacket potatoes burgers all outside the main restaurant..
It is not a five-star hotel but it's a very clean hotel.
It's very busy if you don't mind a hotel being very very busy go there but it is busy.
I'm not sure if you see my other video of all the shots and bars around but I've got another video please let me know if you can't find it.
Would I go back again. I probably would at the right price the only thing I didn't like is too busy around the pool area. We went 11 of Us on the first of May.
I'm in my 60s it was too busy around the pool area for me.
If you're looking for this sort of hotel was suggest you do.
Is price up others .
Always remember people never say Good things they only say bad things.
Please don't hesitate to come contact me again if you need any more information.
My final words are it's not as bad as people make out..
But I went for 14 nights in May and only paid 800 pounds as it was a beginning the season .
Hope this information helps
I am going in 69 days
You will enjoy it .
I wish you a happy holiday
20 euros for that hut!?! Christ they really try and bleed you dry in Turkey don’t they!?
Well we never paid . But if 2 off you yes expensive but if a big group not to bad
