Club Tuana Fethiye

Having read some harsh reviews, I can only assume we had a completely different experience! This place is genuinely brilliant. Travellers: 2 adults, a 17yr old boy, a 16yr old boy and a 4yr old boy. Heading down the road on the lead-up to Club Tuana, I had a bit of a "Oh no, what have I done?!" moment. The wife and I had some interesting conversations about booking this holiday, with me being "It's cheap, it looks amazing!" and her being very "It's Turkey, it borders Syria and has regular earthquakes." She let me make the final purchase which was via EasyJet, 8 nights, late June, costing just over £5k. Once you get to the site gate though, that feeling dropped immediately, the place looks awesome. We were greeted by a happy reception clerk who checked us in and made the comment "Ah, you have one of the really nice family rooms, with two bedrooms, you'll love it." and love it we did. It was the top floor in apartment block 1700. What we learned is the site is split into nice newer blocks, which are located close to the pool, shops, activities, arcades, sea, etc - and then there is the Park Rooms, which is basically across the road from the gatehouse in its own community. They do not advertise this area any longer, I think it was probably their first hotel with pool, and kids pool. It's certainly less maintained garden wise, and the pool has slippery marble-effect around the area. Even though Club Tuana do not advertise the older area, they should as it's still lovely, if not more antiquated/classic. It's around a 5-minute walk from that part of the resort over to the food-hall and main pool. If you're a foody, you're in for a treat. Everything is freshly cooked and prepared, including breads and pastries. I once found what I believed to be mould on a piece of bread, and spoke about it to the chef who was almost hurt I thought it was mould, explaining that the bread was baked fresh daily and what I'd seen was charcoal from the oven. A main evening will have a theme such as seafood, or Italian. However, every day they will give you a classic British chips/fries/wedges/chicken nuggets to keep the kids (and some of the less food-adventurous adults) at bay. You'll also find an Indian area (a rice plus 2 other dishes - usually a chicken and a vegetable) and a Vegan section (different vegetables cooked in olive oils, mostly). Most nights, there are around 8 dedicated chefs constantly cooking and preparing different dishes on the front counters, but behind the scenes there are loads of kitchen staff preparing a plethora of foods including cheeses, meats, fresh fruits (the melon is amazing!), salads (another dedicated area), soups, you name it. The table staff are generally awesome, and plates and used glasses are whisked away at lightning speed, ready for you to go up for seconds, thirds and fourths. I'd like a special shout out to Ülkü who made our table service top-notch, bringing drinks and wipes whenever she saw that we were in need. On top of this, there are a few included and bookable restaurants which have a special set menu. The wife and 16yr old experienced the PELAGOS restaurant and said it was some of the best food they've eaten. The presentation was excellent, but there was too much for them to get through. The pool bar is great, with a swim-up section. I will state that getting service on the swim-up side of the bar is very hit-and-miss, it isn't manned. The staff on the other side of the bar, the dry side, are always engaged there and occasionally look down to see if anyone is waiting on the pool side, but there are only 2 seats viewable from the dry-side of the bar, hence service is not good if you won't leave the pool to get a drink. I'd like to say a big thank-you to Mert for his amazing Mert-Special drink, it was delicious, and we still have no idea what it was. I will say for all staff at the resort, there are two types: those who know hospitality and are lovely, and those that are super direct and don't care for the guests - those people are just showing up to work to get paid. Unfortunately, they are about evenly distributed in all areas, so expect great service and some not-so great service. You usually find the non-so-great service staff congregated together, scrolling phones. The Entertainment Team are AMAZING. There is always something going on and to do, no one should be bored throughout the day. The Kids Club is pretty much 10am to 5pm, with a lunch break. It's the same hours for the Chameleon Aqua kids play area, located on the back of the central complex. My 4yr didn't want to get out from that pool. It's 40cm deep with 3 slides, 2 of them are slow and the fast green one. This is manned with a staff member keeping an eye, but it can be a little boisterous if the older kids show up without their parents, which happens a fair bit. The 10am dance that the Entertainment Team do is also brilliant, make sure you're at the main pool for that one. Don't forget to have a look around the main complex at the darts, archery and air rifle going on as well. You'll also bump into some funky characters such as Shrek and Elsa along the way. I did a fair amount of walking and exploring of the resort, due to its size. The sheep and bird enclosures are a nice-added touch, although the sheep could do with some extra care. Extending their paddock wouldn't be a bad idea as there is some hidden-abandoned space to the left side of the enclosure that is beautifully green... hint hint! There were some more significant issues along the way, though they were handled well. The room we were given was lovely, however it came with a family of jumping spiders in the top corner, which were removed pretty swiftly after a call to reception. By family, I mean a full nest. The extractor fan in the bathroom must make a wobble noise when the bar of soap wedged behind it is removed. There is also a large piece of toilet paper being used as a buffer in the curtain rail. The apartment block had an air conditioning leak which was in the stairwell, at the bottom. The ceiling was open as it was being investigated, but that allowed for water to pool on the marble tiles, creating a really bad slip hazard. Again, a message in the Tuana App and they rearranged a huge plant pot to catch the water. By the time we had left, that had been repaired and already had been plastered over. The one which I never reported was the safe: It wasn't even bolted down in the wardrobe, so your belongings were more of a false sense of security. The grounds are kept VERY well. Every morning, the maintenance crews are out doing something. Mowing, bedding new flowers or weeding, slicing off old palm tree leaves, it's just constant and the place looks lovely because of it. The beach isn't white sand perfection, if that's what you're looking for. It's a grey grit, with stones and sand. There are so many beds with shade on this private beach, and wooden walkways so you do not burn your feet (always have shoes at the ready, the sand gets RIDICULOUSLY hot). The sea is steady, no high and low tide to worry about. There is a nice pier with sun loungers and private areas you can rent, and you'll find a lot of kids pier jumping into the sea. They've even added a dive board so you can go even higher on the dive. Located on the beach is the amazing Tuana Water Sports company. They are independent of Club Tuana, and family run. They're extremely nice people who took my 16 and 17 year sons out parasailing, sofa-ring surfing and jet-skiing, as well as the whole family booking a nice 7 island cruise with them; that was beautiful and allowed for three stops to swim and snorkel in crystal clear waters. We left at 9:30am, back for 1pm for lunch, drinks included at €50 a person, and they let the 4yr go for free. There is so much more I could write, and most of it would be extremely positive. I'll sign off saying that this is a beautiful and relaxing holiday destination. You can never be bored if you do not wish to be, and you can also just veg-out on a sun bed the whole day if that is more your thing.

We have just returned home from an incredible week at Club Tuana. I went to turkey over 10 years a go and didn’t really enjoy it - my wife found this holiday and I was a little hesitant - but I am so glad I went with it. Upon arrival it was instantly clear that a lot of time and effort is spent to make this place look immaculate. As the days went on this became more evident as a massive team of gardeners etc are working around the clock to ensure the grounds are kept visually perfect. Check in was simple and efficient. We arrived at 2145 and they asked us if we were hungry after our travels - which we were. They directed us to the restaurant which was a 2 minute walk, where we could have some food before going to our room. Once we got to our room we were happy with the size and decor. The balcony was a good size overlooking the pool and it was quiet on the top floor. My one issue would be the extra bed isn’t suitable. We have a 7 year old, and the 3rd bed was a small sofa that folded out. It was rock solid. My daughter couldn’t get comfortable on it, so I had to sleep on it. I didn’t sleep well, but they are the sacrifices we make as parents! Later in the week we discovered the swim up rooms have proper beds as the 3rd bed - so this needs to be put in place on the top floor as well. A sofa bed is not suitable or acceptable for 7 nights. We don’t watch tv when on holiday which is just as well, as the tv in the room is very small and out dated - it’s also plugged directly into the mains via a connector block rather than having a plug socket - not sure what regulations they have in turkey but this is extremely dangerous. The next morning we checked out the hotel fully. The breakfast buffet had plenty of choice and wasn’t too busy. There is a snack bar, which is fantastic, and the food here can be amazing. We ate there for lunch most days. The evening buffet is also very good with more choices than I’ve seen before, and it changes each day so you don’t get bored of the same thing. Again, you can tell how much effort goes into the catering at this hotel - it was fantastic. We lay by the main pool on our first day, sun beds are plentiful and can be found any time of the day, the pool was big enough to have plenty of space - but things like water polo happen and this limits the pool space available. After the first day we only used the lagoon pool which was really quiet and generally a much nicer place to be - but this is only for lagoon guests. Towels are provided and sun beds are always available. We were fortunate to have been able to upgrade our room to a Lagoon room at a cheap price due to holiday price changing, so we did that, and I would highly recommend these rooms. Another highlight to the lagoon area is access to two bars, one each side, which serve round the clock drinks and snacks. All the staff at these two bars were brilliant, but I want the hotel manager to take special note of Melis and Talip. These two are a real credit to the hotel. They were so good with our daughter every time they saw her. They let her make non alcoholic cocktails which she loved. They were just wonderful people and the hotel manager needs to reward them accordingly - these two members of staff are the reason we will return to this hotel next year. Please do something to recognise these two. There is a shopping centre on site. The spa is worth every penny. The Turkish bath peel was the perfect start to our holiday and my daughter had a kids chocolate massage which she loved. There is a fake “sports direkt” shop selling fake brands but in my opinion they are massively overpriced. The mini supermarket shop is also horrendously overpriced. There is a little shop just outside the hotel which is far fairer price wise. The evening entertainment, admittedly we didn’t bother with, as we had good times by the bar and pool with other guests in the lagoon. We did venture to the kids disco once but it was heavily aimed at Russian guests with Russian songs - so not really our cup of tea. On that note - Russians out number Brits massively at this hotel. It was no problem. We have no view on this and treat everyone equally. We view them as just other families on holiday. We are polite, and often would say morning when passing - but you get NOTHING back. They don’t thank you for letting them pass in a corridor, they don’t talk, not even to each other. It feels really awkward and uncomfortable. My daughter went to play with a Russian girl who also appeared to be an only child, and the parents pulled her away and made her sit on a sun lounger. I know cultural differences, and they don’t speak English etc - but they will not speak, Smile, acknowledge anything you do - so don’t bother. Just leave them be. This is frustrating at the buffet as well - they will push in, get in your way, and generally just have no common decency. A lot of the staff said they look forward to when Brits are there as we are polite and say thank you to them. This speaks volumes. We used 3 of the 4 included a la carte offerings. The only one we didn’t use was the Asian one as it was over 16’s only. Pelagos was the worst one. Again, heavily catered for Russians. We are not fussy eaters but of the several starters we were served, nothing was anything like we would eat and physically couldn’t eat without washing down with a sip of beer. The lamb was really bad. We had to leave as we couldn’t eat it. I have never experienced this before anywhere. The olive tree is the standout one. The food was exceptional. Roma Italian was also great. The staff at all 3 were really good - just unfortunately pelagos wasnt to British taste and this was an opinion shared by everyone we met. The WiFi needs massively upgrading. It’s barely usable. It disconnects every time you stop using it and you have to re enter your passport details to reconnect only for it to barely work. I bought an eSIM online from nomad which was great. I’ve never used one before but it ensured I could use data for £11 for 10 days unlimited. If anyone wants one go to Nomad and use referral RICHNAQFJX for discount. One other slight quibble that affected us. Outside our room, on the wall was an electrical box. The second and third night this was sounding an alarm - ALL NIGHT. I rang reception who sent someone to turn it off but a few minutes later it was going off again. After 2 sleepless nights I went to reception and asked if we could change room and they told me it would cost £240. The manager at the time seemed less than interested in resolving it any other way. I didn’t change room and fortunately after two nights it stopped - but a bit of customer satisfaction training might be required. We also asked for complimentary late check out as a goodwill gesture but this was refused and they charged me £50 for 3 hours. Also be careful in the bathroom. My wife slipped in the shower and tore her ligament in her finger meaning she can’t bend it. We went to reception to let them know and ask about a doctor. They didn’t seem too interested and just pointed us in the direction of a doctor. The doctor didn’t really know what he was doing - just stuck a bandage around her hand. She has since been to a&e and confirmed torn ligament and splinted correctly. Just be careful as the showers get very slippery with no non slip mats. In the evenings there are photographers who hound you for family photo shoots. On our last day they came around with a parrot. My daughter wanted some photos which we bought. They were £10 per photo and the quality really isn’t great. We were also told we would receive an email with the rest of the images on file which we never did. We spent £40 on four poor quality photos. Overall, we had a fantastic stay. It exceeded our expectations massively. Other than the minor issues I’ve mentioned, there really wasn’t anything major to fault. We would definitely return - I just hope a few issues are ironed out.

We returned to Club Tuana for another year, and it was just as brilliant as we remembered. The rooms are beautiful, the food and drink options are great, and the animation team provided great entertainment and activities all week. A special shout out to Sadam from the animation team, who kept us smiling the whole trip 😊

Absolutely amazing place! ❤️the views , the food , the staff, the activities and everything else is incredible ❤️ what really makes this place amazing is the iconic and beautiful animation team! They put so much effort into everything they do and they make this place special! They are all incredible talented and i have been coming here for 7 years and will always love it ❤️

14th – 21st June, Couple in our late 20s We arrived late at night and were welcomed with a smooth check-in, followed by a fun golf buggy ride to our room. Even at that hour, sandwiches and drinks were available at the bar — exactly what we needed after a long day of travelling. The hotel truly exceeded our expectations in every way. There’s something for everyone here, whether you’re into sports and activities or simply want to relax by the pool or on the beach. Food was available almost around the clock, with a late breakfast option and a snack bar open from 12 to 5. Every meal we had was delicious — no faults whatsoever. The spa was another highlight: excellent treatments at reasonable prices, and the Turkish bath experience is a must-do. It was so convenient to have everything we needed right on site, so we never felt the need to leave the resort. The sunset party organized by the animation team was incredible — we had an absolute blast! There’s also a nightclub on the property, which was usually quiet, likely because it’s a family-friendly resort. A special shout-out to Elif from the animation team: she’s an absolute gem — so sweet, funny, and genuinely helpful. She led the beach volleyball games with so much energy and was a true asset to the hotel. We also want to mention Berkan at the beach bar — such a friendly and attentive bartender who really made our days by the sea even better. Overall, we had an amazing stay and Club Tuana will definitely be at the top of our list for next year’s trip to Turkey!

The hotel is fab and really good value for money. We really only have one critique of it. We stayed in the park rooms which I’ve seen a lot of people complain about, personally we didn’t mind them, even though they are outdated and I wasn’t a fan of the shower curtain 🤢, beds were comfy, really clean, and no more than a 10 minute walk to the pool/restaurant area and they have the benefit of being very quiet and out the way if you want an early night, and a separate smaller pool nearby with a bar and snack bar, which is ideal for childfree couples who want a bit of peace sometimes, as the main one can get busy with kids games and it is very loud, but still a fun vibe! The staff were all lovely and friendly, we personally didn’t get involved in any activities from the animation team but there was lots of stuff to do. Although it is a family friendly hotel, we still had an amazing time as a couple and the evening entertainment was really good and varied, probably the best we’ve experienced at a lower budget all inclusive. Would recommend going into fethiye for a couple of hours, but would recommend getting a taxi over the bus as they are tiny and very stuffy, we had to stand and the drive was very rocky. The only issue we found with the resort was that the sun-beds were quite unorganised, the area directly by the pool had neat rows all with tables and umbrellas but these got filled up by 8am every morning, whereas the surrounding beds further from the pool were often just thrown about everywhere with no set duo beds, no tables and umbrellas, this is something that definitely needs revamping by the hotel, so be prepared to wake up early and secure a good spot if you need a bit of shade. The beach is very scenic with nice views, but it is stoney and the sea is very murky, so sea shoes are a must. The food was very good for an all inclusive, one or two evenings the themed dinner wasn't to our taste, but there was always something else good, breakfast and lunch was consistently amazing. Would also recommend booking the seafood restaurant a la carte by the beach, the staff there were so good and attentive. The dinner service was at times really overwhelming, with a lot of children just running around the buffet with minimal supervision causing chaos, not a reflection on the hotel, more on parents tbh. We found it was a lot calmer if you got there as soon as it opened or later on, if you go there between 7:30-8:30 its carnage. Overall we loved the hotel and would 100% recommend it to families and couples alike, something for everyone and for the price it was really good. Definitely download the app for the hotel as you can have new towels, toiletries, pillows etc delivered to the room and book restaurants, watersports and see what the dinner theme and entertainment is for the week.

Another fantastic stay at club Tuana. We chose to come back with family and friends as we knew what we were getting. We came 2 years ago and already the hotel have made some fantastic additions. The smalls kids water park is fantastic! My little girl who is 8 (loves huge slides) even enjoyed it with her friends. The lagoon rooms and bar are another fantastic addition and the strawberry/mango frozen cocktails there were AMAZING! The new football pitch, was great for 10 minutes to kill time before evening meal (far too hot playing in the day) The tennis courts are another fantastic addition amazing standard with a small fridge at the bar to help yourself for drinks. We hired a pavilion on the pier for the day, which we were so glad to do. The food/drinks and price were all perfect! We stayed in a club room as we were aware to stay clear of the park rooms, please keep this in mind when booking. The park rooms are far away and very outdated, like another hotel on its own. The staff, entertainers, cleaners are all fantastic so a huge thank you to them The shops on the complex are great also! Thanks for a great stay and for making our 10th wedding anniversary in the olive tree a great one. Make use of the a la cartes everyone! Even with the evening buffet being brilliant, the olive tree was our firm fave! Thinks I look for in reviews, so may help: Yes they do amazing cocktails Yes it’s Fanta sprite and coke, not cheap stuff Yes there’s branded drinks Yes there’s ice cream We lay in most days as we didn’t need to worry about getting up for breakfast, as we would be hungry. Late breakfast/snack bar was fine! The donut balls at 4 o clock at the snack bar, we will miss! Ammmmazzziinnnggg We did miss the slushy bar though club Tuana, being it back!

Club Tuana - June 2025 Profile: Young couple with a 2.5 year old Who go on multiple all inclusive holidays a year and have done for 10+ years Club Tuana is a stand out hotel for young families. The food!! Wow honestly incredible best we’ve had at an all inclusive!! The kids club is honestly the best I’ve seen I attended with my LG as she was only two but she asked to go back twice a day. The resources are great and brand new and super modern, the staff are lovely and the activities they run are so great, Darcie made some excellent crafts each day, played team games and had the BEST time and made some friends. I’ve also never seen such enthusiasm at the mini disco from the staff performing and my LG had the best time. She also won a certificate for participating in the KC activities. 10/10 Lots and lots of Russian children who some times can be obviously mean and unwilling to play with other children but that’s easily sorted out and obviously this was no the case for all. My LG made great friends with a little Russian boy, two girls from Romania and a lovely English girl too. Layla at the kids club who is only 18 and fantastic deserves a special mention. The bar, restaurant, photography and spa staff aren’t pushy for tips and they don’t come round and hassle you which is a plus! Excellent comfy sun beds and no wars! Tiny things that could make this hotel A+ but they’re minor - lollies instead of scoop able icecreams as part of the all inclusive would be great - they’re so cheap in Turkey so why not? - the gym to be open 24/7 the gym facilities are excellent and my husband would much prefer to work out early early or late to spend more time with my LG - same with the spa if it was open late lr this would be excellent - thicker duvet options as it’s just a sheet and when the aircon is blasting it can get chilly Top Tips: - ensure you’ve booked a club room and not the park side I believe that they’re getting rid of these rooms soon and they’re a fair walk from the rest of the hotel amenities - Don’t book a swim up room as I’ve spoken to guest who booked this and it’s not worth it. Apparently it costs only £40 a night if you booked on the day and the hotel wasn’t full and you’re not guaranteed a swim up room as you could be on the top or middle floors. The aesthetic is gorgeous and lovely chilled vibes however save your money as ANYONE can go in to the lagoon area and use the bar there are no wrist bands to differentiate. - the little shop just outside of the entrance is miles cheaper for inflatables and ice creams - make the trip! - take a dolumus (bus) into Fethiye for cheap cheap 60TL each way they’re super easy

Our holiday started terribly! The reception gave us one of the worst rooms ever – we'd booked Park standard, but don't even *think* of getting those rooms at Club Tuana. They were so outdated, the smell of mold and dust hit us as soon as we opened the door. It felt like some old country house! I went back to reception, explained my child's asthma, and they *finally* changed the room. The new one was cleaner, at least, and didn't smell. Next, the air con was ancient and barely worked, the fridge was a 90s relic, and everything – doors, windows, curtains – was outdated. The sink leaked everywhere when my kid washed their hands; the whole floor got soaked! And the mattress? So uncomfortable, I was in pain all over.

I came with my partner and our friends, we just got back and we had an excellent time at Club Tuana and it is one of the best all inclusive resorts we have been to. The food was excellent for an all inclusive, there was loads of choice, the food was fresh, tasty and we didn’t get bored of the options. The drinks were great and all branded. We stayed in the newer updated rooms which were lovely, clean and comfortable. All of the staff work so hard and were all very friendly. The pool is huge, the beach was nice and we were able to go on a boat trip that picked us up right at the end of the pier. We also used the spa which was very relaxing, the staff were friendly and professional. The resort is about 20 minutes drive from Fethiye, we used the hotels taxi service to go there and it was brilliant, quick and easy. We would stay here again and recommend to anyone thinking of booking!
