Guest Reviews
- glabj (2/5): Beautiful hotel but management could do so much more. - We love the rooms and close proximity to the beach at The Residence. Buildings overlook the pool which is designed beautifully but is very cold and can be challenging if used outwith peak summer months. What makes this hotel is the fantastic staff and level of service that they provide. There is a luxurious feel to some parts but falls short in other aspects. This is our fifth visit to The Residence and both of us are complete foodies. Sadly the standard has declined to what it once was. The best two restaurants Tao and Basclica are sited next door and you are only permitted to visit once. This year we decided to award a simple yes or no each time a meal was delicious. It didn’t even reach 50% in The Repertiore or Cupthea. On one visit to Cupthea I ordered Korean style crispy chicken breast. It was no different to goujons you could buy out of Marks & Spencer. To my horror the very same dish was in the hot buffet section in The Repertoire next morning at breakfast. For a hotel that claims to deliver culinary excellence this is just not good enough. This year our visit was tarnished watching guests distressed at a trap deliberately placed beside a litter of kittens in an attempt to remove them and their mother. The situation became worse when people were crying in the presence of management. I have read three or four reviews where management has responded with complete and utter lies. This is a particular example. “When cats are born on-site or choose to remain within the property, we ensure their well-being through cooperation with the local municipality and veterinary authorities. These organizations handle the necessary health checks, sterilization, and vaccinations to guarantee humane and lawful treatment” Since last year I have been attempting to make suggestions which would satisfy both cat lovers and guests who are allergic or not keen on cats. I have copied my email for all to see suggestions made. “As a previous guest at the hotel I have placed money into the donation box at reception. I am sure that the local animal shelter would be grateful for every donation they receive but I know that Akra and The Residence could do much more if they choose. As well as placing money in the box I make regular donations to HAYED the local animal charity in Fethiye. They operate feeding stations, arrange for animals to be sterilised (which is vitally important) and pay for emergency treatment using vets that are sympathetic to animals living on the street. I agree some guests have not supported your seed pencil initiative. This could be because animal lovers are aware that the municipal shelter has a high rate of infection and tragically cats and dogs never make it alive out of the facility. I am disappointed that at this time you cannot commit to a designated area for cats in the hotel. There are some suggestions I would like to make. 1. By not having a feeding station the cats are fed within the restaurant grounds. Responsible guests would stop feeding if they could go to the designated area. 2. Arrange a partnership with a local vet that would deal with any animal welfare issues. 3. Ask HAYED and your designated vet if they can offer advice and suggestions. When this is done allow it to be posted on the internet to prove that the hotel really does care. 4. Offer guests the option to help directly by paying for a female cat to be sterilised and show that the cats have been returned to the property. This will reduce the population and help manage the situation. If this was offered I would be delighted to pay for this first procedure and happy for any publicity that you may want to post through the internet. 5. Create an ambassador role with one of your staff that genuinely loves cats. They could liaise with guests / vets and HAYED. 6. Provide reassurance through internet / social media that during the winter season the cats are being fed and looked after. The hotel seems to be adopting an "Elephant in the room" approach which can increase anxiety and concern of guests no matter if they are animal lovers or not. It would be much better if The Residence owned the situation and was pro-active. If there was an insect or rodent infestation they would deal with it so why not manage the cat population and turn it into something positive for Akra and the hotel? In 2021 Jane Ashton, The Director of Sustainability for TUI awarded The Grand Azur Hotel in Marmaris The Stray Animal Award which is published on their Facebook page. Perhaps TUI would be willing to partner The Residence in improving the current situation? I have sent a copy of my reply to Gokhan in the hope that Akra hotels can move forward in a positive direction by introducing changes in all of their hotels. This would be a bold move and demonstrate that Akra stands head and shoulders above other groups. It also means that The Residence does listen to feedback and truly incorporates changes as you continue to develop your sustainability practices. I look forward to seeing you and the team in October.” Sadly every one of my suggestions were rejected IN FULL Management does NOTHING to help the situation. To see them replying to reviews claiming the contrary is being dishonest. This is unforgivable especially when it is to do with innocent creatures who many guests fall in love with.
- Freedom48416616868 (10/5): Spectacular levels of customer care - We were a family group of 14. I would agree with all the 5 star reviews about the quality of the hotel. However I would like to extend a very special thanks to the staff. The level of customer service was outstanding at every level. In particular reception staff who were exceptional in their care and assistance when my sister fractured her leg and needed to stay in hospital. They assisted us with frequent calls via the hotel medical staff to support the treatment of my sister particularly when communication at the hospital was difficult and causing problems.
- Cleveleys19 (10/5): So easy to fall in love with this hotel - We had a wonderful holiday at this amazing hotel. We’ve stayed at the adjoining hotel several times and loved it but love this one more. Beautiful surroundings, good food, great staff and service. Having a la carte meals for breakfast, lunches and evening meals in an all inclusive hotel is always welcome. Balkon cocktail bar-such a gorgeous setting. The rooms are so spacious and the balcony, with sun beds, is a lovely touch. The pool areas were well set out and the drinks cool box was such a good idea although the staff did come round regularly to take drinks orders and bring fruit snacks. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. Thank you for ensuring that we had a wonderful holiday. We enjoyed it so much we have booked to return twice next year
- LeighandPaul (6/5): Lovely hotel but concerned for the cat population. - We've just returned home from a lovely stay at the residence. We requested a room over looking the beach so we could have the afternoon sun and they were able to assign us one and so thank you for this it was perfect sitting and just watching the world go by. The service was consistently excellent. The food was good there were some misses however, the one that stands out is the french night and the beef bourguignon and quail. Not one we'd try again. But everything else was spot on especially the cakes in the lobby bar and Neoman. Like lots of reviews previously there aren't many faults at all however we are conflicted about returning due to the care and management of the cats at the hotel when it closes for the season. I understand there was a meeting between concerned guests and the hotel manager and they were informed the cats are captured and taken to the local pound (not a shelter) where they'll either be neutered and put on the street or worse (it's unclear). Whilst I understand they don't belong to the hotel and they are complying with the law, I feel a hotel brand with such standards in terms of sustainability and ethical responsibility (to the point where all toiletries are vegan!) I would expect more and feel if you want to live up to your reputation you would want to do more! this is an opportunity to do the right thing. This is all at managers discretion and I believe at the Akra Sorgan they are leading the way with taking care of their cat population all year round (unconfirmed but what I've heard). A few simple steps could make a huge difference for example work with local rescues and set up feeding schedules on the off season, I'm sure guests would even make donations to support this and begin a neuturing program to help control the size of the colony (again rescues would help). These things are doable and means a future more bright than the one being offered. There is a mum and 4 kittens at risk so I urge you act now and prevent the worse from happening. I've seen from social media group chats that lots of guests are not returning due to this reason so again please consider making a change and you'll bring those customers back. Lots of other hotels are leading the way and you could too. Apologies for this long review but basically the hotel ticks all the boxes, but for me as a customer I want and expect more especially if I'm giving you my hard earned cash. Please take some action.
- tonygK4388LI (10/5): Simply the best - What can you say about this place there aren’t enough words we have stayed next door at the family hotel and thought we would treat ourselves to the residence and we were not disappointed from start to finish the staff can’t do enough for you fro the start of the day to the end of the day they are so helpful and nothing is to much trouble the food is amazing the steak house was just great the fish restaurant was my favourite the cocktails were plentiful and the cake and coffee shop was the wife’s favourite must admit have put a few pounds on since being there the rooms were immaculate the cleaning staff were brilliant and the entertainment was great also we did venture over to the other side to meet some staff members form our visit earlier in year it was great to see them all at the sundowner bar as we call it so good was the holiday that we have booked for June next year and can’t wait see you then .
- TheCarters2 (10/5): Perfection!!! - This hotel is the best hotel we have ever stayed in on our travels. It's truly exceptional levels of service, facilities, food choice and quality, amazing drinks and for us a chilled out feel. When you arrive the check in process is swift, friendly with a glass of champagne, what we think is amazing the reception colleague then takes you to your room and whilst on the way tells you lots of information about the hotel. The rooms are spotless clean, the beds are so comfortable, a jacuzzi bath and a wonderful shower. The rooms are stocked with spirits and loads of mixers, simple thing but bottled water is in glass bottles truly high end. A drawer of sweet and savoury snacks. Large balcony with table and chairs and a double sunbed. The main food reptory restaurant as a theme night every night alongside the all day dining menu, the food is cooked to order no buffet in sight! The main bar is a great space for a glass of wine or one of There amazing cocktails, and in the main bar they have a cake counter, ice cream counter and chocolates counter honestly pure perfection. The cocktail bar upstairs at the Balkon restaurant is a true hidden gem, the Mixologist is truly remarkable and the theatre of how cocktails are presented was truly amazing. We never used the pool area but plenty of sunbeds available which come will cool boxes for bottles or cans of drink. We always used the beach again with plenty of sunbeds. We loved that there was waiter service and if you hadn't seen anyone for a while(very rare) there is a QR code you can scan and you can order all sorts of drinks that are delivered to your sun bed within minutes. This by the way should be adopted by all TUI Blue hotels. This was only our second time at the hotel we are already planning our next stay. The General Manager and her team are literally the best amazing job that every single one of them does delivers an amazing holiday. We will look forward to returning to this gem of a hotel in the future. Thank you
- Weesco (10/5): Exceptional service at a lovely hotel - We visited here in late September for my birthday and overall it was a lovely stay. Pros: - The service in this hotel is probably one of the main reasons people keep coming back, all the staff were attentive, friendly and extremely helpful. We never felt that anything was too much trouble or that you were inconveniencing them. - The room was amazing, we booked a penthouse suite which was large, beautifully furnished and well presented. I truly feel that although the extra space was nice I would have been just as happy with a standard room. The added extra of a walk in wardrobe come dressing room was a lovely touch. The only slightly strange issue was that the bath was directly in front of the main entrance which did seem a bit odd but that may have just been me. The cleaners and people stocking the mini bar were excellent, and it's probably the cleanest hotel we have ever stayed in. - Drinks were plentiful and free flowing if you wanted them, the cocktails were excellent and the wine drinkable although I'm a bit of a white wine and prosecco snob and did think these were slightly lacking. - Pool area was amazing, I spent the sunny days floating round the pool with drink and kindle in hand, even getting poolside service from the staff for drinks which was a lovely touch. The water although extremely cold was very refreshing although I did hear a lot of complaints around the pool that it was far too cold to spend any amount of time in. It never felt cramped and although we often didn't come down to the pool until after 10am didn't have a problem finding empty sun loungers. It did seem that there were bed hoggers who would put there towel down and then disappear for hours which was a bit frustrating. The swim up bar was great and the staff always happy to accommodate any request, mine being wine in a tumbler so it could fit in my floaty drinks holder! - Cabana day was excellent, the service was amazing with nothing being too much trouble, food and drink were ordered through a QR code and brought to the cabana which I thought was a great touch. We had booked a cabana again after this but unfortunately the weather had other ideas. Cons: - We had 3 days of torrential rain and if like my husband find it hard to entertain yourself you will be bored, there was very little to do in the hotel which didn't involve eating and drinking. I know this is very much a first world problem but did make the days very long. - The food although varied due to the theme nights did get very samey after a couple of days. I found the food either quite bland or very overwhelmed with different herbs which masked the true flavour of the food. I am in no way a picky and always found something to eat but did get bored by the end of the trip. We visited the buffet next door and found the food to be really good for a buffet restaurant, although the service was nowhere near as good. - Communication methods in my opinion could be improved as having to phone guest relations for everything seems slightly antiquated. An addition to the app or using WhatsApp especially for meal bookings would have made a huge difference. Also the QR code used for food and drinks used at the cabanas would have made a big difference around the pool area. Overall it was a lovely hotel with amazing staff who really work hard to made your trip as special as possible.
- 788jeanettec (10/5): Amazing! This hotel is superb - Wow! Just a perfect situation, spotlessly clean, most friendly warm staff ever. From the minute we arrived we felt the amazing atmosphere the staff created. Food superb, entertainment was very professional, pool beds kept well stocked with own ice boxes. Pool service 100% restaurant and bar service 100% room 100% coffee lounge and cakes/ice creams/chocolate100% and beach area 100% Ignore my previous reviews of other hotels as They are no comparison to this place! The only negative was the cold pool
- shellworkington (10/5): Another wonderful stay at The Residence - Just returned from our 4th visit to this amazing place and can honestly say it gets better with each visit. The whole property is spotless, the food is really top notch as are the cocktails , the entertainment is fantastic but what sets this place apart are the wonderful staff who go out of their way to make sure you have an amazing holiday. Far too many to mention individually but a special shout out to Ibrahim on guest relations, always smiling and happy to help , Murat from the repertory , such a hard worker , very professional and a real asset to the residence and Tamhil (Tommy) from the beach bar who puts the miles in making sure each guest is well refreshed. We really wouldn't want to holiday anywhere else since finding this very special place which now feels like our second home and have already booked 2 visits for next year and 2 visits for 2027. Thank you The Residence for another wonderful stay.
- BKChance (10/5): Fifth Stay and Still Loving It at Akra Fethiye The Residence! - We’ve just returned from our fifth incredible stay at Akra Fethiye The Residence, and we’re already counting down to our next visit! Every year, this place continues to impress us. The management and staff are outstanding, always going the extra mile to make sure everything runs smoothly. Even when the hotel is at full capacity, it never feels crowded — it’s pure relaxation from start to finish. The food is exceptional, with The Repertory offering fantastic themed nights and an all-day dining menu, and The Cuphea serving great lunches and dinners. We also love having access to the Sensatori restaurants next door — the Amber Turkish restaurant (complete with brilliant Turkish musicians), the Italian, and the Chinese were all excellent. A special shout-out goes to Omer from the Cuphea Bar for his great service and custom made cocktails, Movit from the Cuphea Restaurant for her wonderful service and attention to detail, and Seda, who looked after us at breakfast in The Repertory and again at Cuphea for lunch — she really did stand out for us The drinks deserve their own mention — top-quality branded spirits, a great mix of international and Turkish beers, and even soft drinks served in cans rather than bulk bottles. It’s those small details that make such a big difference. The hotel looks as fresh and spotless as ever, and the gym is excellent — high-quality equipment for anyone wanting to balance out the overindulgence! As hardworking professionals, my wife and I really value the total relaxation this hotel delivers every time. It’s no wonder we keep coming back — Akra Fethiye The Residence is simply our happy place.
- rachaelhA9723XL (10/5): Consistently exceptional standards. A great holiday destination- highly recommended. - A well run hotel in a beautiful setting, surrounded by mountains with a picturesque beach a very short walk away from the main buildings through lovely woodland. The room was spacious and always spotlessly clean. The food and drink were consistently of a very high standard and the level of service from all members of staff was exceptional. The pool area is fantastic - no issues finding a sun bed. Although the pool is cold upon entry- it’s a wonderful space to be able to swim and cool down. We loved our time here.
- alexj331 (10/5): A fantastic hotel, highly recommended - Where to start with this place? I'm not sure I have enough superlatives in my vocabulary to do it justice. After a stressful flight out including an unplanned five hour detour to Amsterdam we were greeted with a warm welcome and a glass of fizz. We were then shown to our room which had been decorated with a banner and balloons for my wife's birthday, we were also given a cake and some more fizz, a lovely touch. The room itself was spacious, modern, clean and the mini bar was well stocked with premium spirits and wine, although it would have been good if these were refilled when empty. The food and drink at the hotel is excellent. The main restaurant is a la carte and has a different theme every night. Every meal we ate was superb and there's plenty of choice. The staff are incredible, they work hard, they're all very accommodating and they always make sure your glass is full, every one of them is a credit to the hotel. We cannot fault anything about the hotel, we can't wait to return and we'll be rebooking as soon as possible.
- Debwoj19046 (6/5): The good, the bad & the ever so ugly - We booked this hotel based on the fabulous reviews as it was a holiday to celebrate our daughter’s 30th birthday and our wedding anniversary. It was 18 months in the planning and we were super excited in anticipation. We arrived early hours 2am, welcomed with a drink and shown to our rooms overlooking the pool. We were surprised to find balloons, cake & bottle of fizz in ice buckets in both rooms. What a lovely welcome! As the days progressed along with bad weather challenges our first good impressions faded m. Positives: Our superior double room was luxurious and spacious. A frozen beer glass is served with each order of beer. The Lobby Bar has a choice of coffees, soft drinks, alcoholic drinks/cocktails, together with a triple fridge display of ice creams, individual patisserie cakes and artisan chocolates. A cheeseboard is available too, on request. The site is beautiful, lagoon pool, forest and beach. The staff (mostly) are very good and helpful. Negatives: We enjoyed some of the food, but it got repetitive and inconsistent, depending on the chef. The only two sides offered: a heavy salad from the menu or French Fries. As the mains only come with a dozen peas or one asparagus cut in half, more vegetables or vegetable sides are needed! Wine servings 100ml if you’re lucky! Less if you like ice. Not enough seats - indoor or outdoor for the evening entertainment. The Watergate Pool Bar is in shade most of the day, making it unusable and the pool was freezing cold every day during our stay. Cuphea - where do I start? Two covered areas for dining but nowhere to enjoy a drink in the shade. The three inadequate toilets have to service the beach, cabanas and diners! It is also where the evening entertainment is when the weather is good, so poorly equipped. One night the toilets were out of order. Omg the awful management … We had read reviews about how birthdays and special occasions were recognised and celebrated by the hotel. We also talked to fellow guests while we were there. It seems returning guests are treated very differently to first timers. The hotel expected us to celebrate our special occasions simultaneously on our arrival at 2am, as nothing appeared on our anniversary, nor our daughter’s birthday. As it was so late when we arrived, we couldn’t make use of either and it was removed the following day. Other (returning) guests had received banners, balloons, cake & fizz actually on their special day. We witnessed a cake with candles brought to the dining table of a guest the day after our daughter’s 30th birthday. We had originally booked Cuphea for her birthday meal as it was the only “a la carte restaurant” available, but it’s only outdoor dining and the weather had turned cooler, evenings quite cold, she said she would rather eat in the main (Reparatory) restaurant. We had hoped the cake we were promised would be delivered there. However no mention was made of her birthday in the restaurant even though I told the staff. I challenged this with reception who said that the whole event had been cancelled as we had changed our booking from Cuphea. Their suggested way of making it up to our daughter was for the band to wish her a belated birthday on their microphone! I said we didn’t want a public display, nor wanted insult added to injury. That really left us all with a very bad feeling, as it was clear the management really does not care. All I wanted was an apology, but they didn’t give one. Last, but not least, the cats and their kittens. They are very friendly, guests buy and give them food and they cuddle up to guests adoringly. We were horrified to learn that they are all poisoned at the end of the season. We are animal lovers and would never return to this hotel. It’s all wrapped up in the guise of a luxury resort but the management is careless, ruthless and unethical. Neither will we ever stay at a TUI hotel ever again.
- ladykb27 (2/5): Stunning Setting, Food and Beverages not up to expectations, and Ethical Concerns - We chose The Residence hoping to find a five-star, ultra all-inclusive experience that offered better value than our usual luxury resorts, such as Ikos. Visually, the resort is stunning, particularly the expansive Lagoon area, and our expectations upon arrival were very high. The Best Bits * Accommodation: We were incredibly lucky with our corner room in Block 46. It was genuinely stunning and offered a spectacular, triple-aspect view of the pool, entertainment area, and the sea. * Exceptional Daily Entertainment: The evening and daily entertainment was absolutely amazing and consistently high quality. We enjoyed top-tier bands, especially the acapella vocal group and the performer named Danny—they were truly excellent. * Dedicated Departure Lounge: This was a unique and highly appreciated feature. The hotel offers a dedicated departure lounge area for guests who have checked out but have late flights, complete with shower facilities, hair dryers, straighteners, and lockers. This function was an exceptional, thoughtful touch we've never seen before. * Cabana Experience: Our cabana day was absolutely beautiful. The service there was exceptional; the dedicated butler was amazing, very quick, and provided exactly what we requested, easily making it the highest service standard we experienced. * Staff Attitude (General): The general staff were friendly, welcoming, and chatty. While service pace was occasionally slow in other areas, their positive demeanor was a definite plus. Major Letdowns & Operational Failures * The Pool: The main lagoon pool was absolutely freezing—like an ice bath. It was practically unusable and was a major failure, causing most guests to avoid the area. Heating is desperately needed. * Privacy Intrusion: The "Do Not Disturb" sign was consistently ignored by the spa promotion staff (who leave nightly pillow notes), leading to nightly intrusions that severely undermined our privacy. * Basic Amenities: A small but strange omission for a 5-star resort was the lack of a face cloth in the room. Food & Beverage Quality The ultra all-inclusive dining did not meet luxury standards. The food was generally underwhelming; nothing wowed us, and the best quality was consistently found in the main restaurant, which was still a menu-order/à la carte service (making the booked specialty A La Carte options pointless). The beverage quality was poor overall. While the cocktail menu was exquisite—with drinks beautifully structured and highly "instagrammable" (a notable positive for those who enjoy cocktails)—the basics failed. Notably, the Prosecco was flat every time—suggesting either poor product quality or serious issues with storage/service. Ethical Red Flag: The Cat Policy This was the most disturbing aspect of our stay. While friendly stray cats (common in Turkey) were present, we were informed by returning guests that the management lies to guests about their winter care, noting that the same cats are never seen the following year. We also observed traps set around the resort. Given recent euthanasia policy changes in Turkey, this suggests the resort may be actively removing or neglecting the animals, despite assuring guests otherwise. This lack of transparency and ethical concern is a major red flag for management. Overall Verdict While the physical resort is beautiful and features exceptional high-end amenities like the departure lounge, cabanas, and entertainment, The Residence ultimately fails to deliver a consistent five-star, ultra all-inclusive experience due to fundamental operational flaws (cold pool, privacy issues, poor F&B) and, critically, alleged deception regarding the welfare of stray animals. Travelers prioritizing high service standards, consistency, and ethical management should look elsewhere.
- anthonyt674 (10/5): Lovely meal and service - A visit to the Asian restaurant at this resort is a must. The choice is wonderful, helped by Rifat, explaining every dish, making sure it was to your likeing, Enjoyed everything, the ambience, Rifat help, presentation and of course the meal.
- Stay56305369789 (10/5): Nothing could prepare us for the perfection . . - When I say that this resort is faultless, I mean it with every fibre of my being. We booked 18 months ago and have not been able to get away from the reviews talking about how perfect The Residence is, but none did it justice; I can see why people struggle to put it into words. The hotel itself is a dream, featuring the most gorgeous, lagoon pool (we had a swim up room just yards from the pool bar), stunning beachfront accessibility and beautiful seating areas. Something I don’t see many other reviews discussing is the planting - the greenery in this place transforms it into a paradise. The restaurants both at The Residence and the Akra next door are all sublime, mixing international cuisine with the most beautiful contemporary presentation. The cocktails were plentiful and delicious with many bars to try that all had bespoke menus created by the bar managers (who would proudly tell you which ones they had done!). The most important and unique aspect of this hotel however - The staff. I have never experienced service like it and doubt I will again. Every single member of the team is passionate, with nothing ever being too much trouble. As soon as an empty cup or glass hits the table, they are there to suggest something new. The enthusiasm they bring to their work is infectious and we spent many an evening listening to the origins of ingredients and the process for making everything. In a hotel that can only be described as paradise, the staff completely stole the show. This vacation was perfect and we will return.
- andrea_knox_hughes (10/5): Best hotel in Turkey - Just back from our third stay at this fantastic hotel. The hotel is absolutely amazing. The pool area is unique. The hotel itself is absolutely spotless. Can’t speak highly enough of the food. The staff were incredible, nothing was too much for them and they were extremely helpful. The staff all worked as a team and I just cannot praise them enough. We love this hotel so much that we have already booked for next year (we got home Monday evening and booked on Thursday afternoon)
- loveturkey2010 (10/5): Perfect - I cannot rate this hotel more highly. From start to finish everything was perfect. We had a swim up room and it was huge and beautifully decorated including a jacuzzi tub. The beach was also amazing and the waiter service top notch. Food was amazing, we’re both vegetarian and the chef made us something to suit every night. Loved not having to queue for a buffet. In particular Dugya and Suleyman were so attentive in restaurant. The coffee shop was unreal, fabulous icecream, cakes and amazing cheeseboard. All premium alcohol. Adults only so get peaceful and classy. There are a few cats around and they are well looked after, as a cat lover myself I can tell this, they were friendly and I wanted to take them home. We booked to return the day we got back. Highly recommend.
- 948cad (10/5): Our Happy Place - Another fabulous stay at this exceptional hotel. It was our fourth visit and we didn’t think it was possible but it gets better every year. Asli and her Management team go over and above to ensure their guests have a truly memorable stay and you don’t just feel like a room number. They provide little personal touches that make your stay special time and time again. A fantastic addition this year is QRcodes at the beach for bar service. Tommy does a fabulous job of keeping us all hydrated along with his cheery demeanour. He’s a star. As is Hasan at the cabanas. He’s always smiling and ensures your day at the cabana is a memorable one. Well worth a visit. We did 2 cabana days. Another addition that we loved was the new Caretta Beach Bar. Sitting at sunset with some chilled Ibiza tunes from the DJ and a cocktail. Bliss! Finally and probably most importantly are the truly wonderful staff that really do make our holiday and are a big reason we return year after year. Every staff member is exceptional and I’m sorry to those that I haven’t mentioned but the ones that stood out for us were Zeki, Esen, Fatima, Isik & Mercan who ensured our dining experiences were fabulous. Gaye & Zehra who were the best waitress and mixologist down at Cuphea. Mehmet in the lobby bar, always smiling. Hasan and Tommy at the beach and cabana and Emrah who made the most amazing cocktails up in Balkon. Cocktails at the standard of any top New York cocktail bar. We cannot wait to return in May.
- KellyDD43 (10/5): THE BEST STAFF IN THE BEST RESORT - Wow....where do I start.................... So I'll start from the beginning. Arrived after a long flight because of delays at Gatwick. We got dropped off in a small mini bus, seemed quite quick as I had read a few comments about the long journey, but we arrived around 10pm, so I guess less traffic. We went straight to check in and was greeted by a lovely receptionist. Was given a glass of prosecco and a beer for the hubs and a fresh towel and hadn't even drank our drinks and was taken to our suite. When we entered, it really was stunning. A porter bought our luggage to the room. We was in suite 4126, right on the end. It is huge. Lovely shower room and separate toilet. Two sinks, with all toiletries. A beautiful free standing jacuzzi bath. The mini bar, which is stocked daily had vodka, gin, whisky and wine. In the fridge were beers, water and every fizzy drink. Also we was given a bottle of wine (choice of red, white or rose) daily. Snacks, chocolate, sweets and fruit all in the room, once eaten, again replenished. The bed is huge and comfortable. Choice of pillows. Iron, ironing board, straightners and a hair dryer. Beach towels in the room (but you could always get them at the couple of towel stations in the hotel and have as many as you liked) and a nice beach bag. Slippers and gowns. Our balcony was lovely, you could see the sea in the distance and had the sun on it from morning til sunset. Views over the hotel. A double lounger plus two chairs and table. Our maid was a gem, she kept our room spotless the whole time we stayed here. Now the food and drink are on point. I'd say I'm well travelled, having visited over 70 counties, in many nice hotels but this had to be in my top 4! Never once had a bad meal. We ate breakfast every morning in the repertory, loved that you got waited on and no buffet. I love a poached egg and they did mine to perfection. Lunch was either at Cuphea or the steak house, food not only lovely but come with amazing views. We did eat once for lunch in the Italian over at the sister hotel but at lunch time, although food was nice, there was just a few too many children, hence the beauty of staying at the Residence and being adult only (I'm not a kid hater, I have two of my own, but its nice to escape them lol). We ate at the repertory, Italian, Cuphea, Asian and Turkish for dinner. Each one had the best menu's and the food is to die for and always hot. Never felt the need to pay extra at the Balcon or Steak house, because believe me, the food in the other restaurants included in the all inclusive is so lovely, with so much choice, you can never get bored of the food. The drinks, well, never had a bad one. Top shelf. Always cold. Cocktails, you have to try them all, they are delicious. Entertainment, we thought was really good. Only used the other hotel once to watch the Robbie Williams tribute and he was fantastic. Entertainment was either at the lobby bar or cuphea and we watched some fantastic singers, who got nearly everyone up dancing. The beach was lovely also, and so tranquil. When we came back from the beach, we loved to sit in the garden area and have a cocktail, watching the world go by. Swimming pools are lovely, albeit, cold but quite refreshing in the heat in Turkey but slightly heated would just take the edge off. Never had to fight for a sunbed, always found a spot in a quite area. Each sun bed has a cool box with beers and water in them but the waiters never leave anyone going thirsty, and they will bring anything you wish for, should you be anyway by the huge pool or beach. Now last but by NO means least the STAFF, well what can I say other than outstanding, yes, OUTSTANDING. Every single member of staff is an asset to the Residence, they literally go above and beyond to make sure each quest is looked after and has a wonderful time. I didn't see one member of staff without a smile on their faces. They all took time to chat and always remembered what drinks you would have. The only regret I have is that I couldn't stay longer. I was so sad to leave the hotel and the staff that make it the wonderful experience we had. A million percent we will be back, and that's something I don't really like to do as its a big world out there, but the Residence now has a special place in my heart ( and we have been to many top hotels around Turkey) but at the Residence, the staff just go out of their way to make it so special. Thank you so much for giving us memories that will last a life time xxxx
- nemesia2015 (10/5): Great Holiday - Returned from a wonderful holiday so relaxing. We tried to find faults but to be honest couldnt find any ! The rooms were brilliant cleaned beautifully every day, the mini bar was filled every day with a variety of cold drinks lots of chocolates and bottles of spirits. The food WELL absolutely amazing a different menu every night, the staff were so good very attentive, we went to the beach bar most days and again the food was brilliant. We went on the River trip so interesting our guide was very informative telling us things we never would have known. The tombs lit up at a night were so good. (the only down side were the midges take spray) The market trip is another must I have never seen so many tee-shirts, handbags and belts and veg and fruit to die for. Sadly our sunset cruise was cancelled due to bad weather but next time. All in all a fabulous holiday definitely go again. Thank you Residence X
- 502sylwiar (6/5): Nice amenities, but Really disappointing service reaction in terms of safety hazard - We had really been looking forward to visiting this hotel — my husband and I had been following it for years, and it was supposed to be our dream vacation. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to our expectations. We stayed in room 4507 (swim-up). If you enjoy the sun, I wouldn’t recommend this particular room — after around 12–1 PM there’s no sun at all, and it gets quite cold. Let’s start with the positives. The drinks were really good — branded spirits available in every bar, and cocktails were made properly. The food was also great for an all-inclusive hotel. We really enjoyed the main restaurant with themed evenings and the fact that it was open 24/7. The breakfast buffet was small but had everything you could need, and the à la carte option available at any time of the day was an excellent idea. The pools are large and there’s plenty of space to swim. Most of the staff were kind and friendly as well. Now, the negatives. Unfortunately, we experienced two very unpleasant situations. First issue: one day in the main restaurant we waited almost an hour for our main courses. Normally, we wouldn’t complain — it was busy, and we understand that. However, we started noticing that guests who came after us were being served much earlier. When I asked the waitress about our order, she said it would take a little longer because they were busy. We patiently waited, but after about 40 minutes from when we first arrived, another waitress came and asked what we had ordered — that’s when we realized something had gone wrong. We waited another 15–20 minutes and eventually decided to leave the restaurant. Ironically, as we were walking out, our dishes finally arrived — but one of them was completely wrong. We went to the reception and asked for food to be delivered to our room because we didn’t want to deal with the situation anymore. Mistakes can happen — I work in customer service myself, so I understand. But what truly disappointed us was the lack of communication or apology. The food was eventually delivered to our room, but only because we asked — the hotel staff made no effort to address the mistake on their own. Second issue: one day it rained heavily all day, and water started leaking out of an electrical socket in our room. A large amount of water also got under the wooden floor — we could hear it squishing under our feet, and water was literally coming out as we walked. It was clearly a serious safety hazard. We immediately called to report it and also mentioned it to the reception while going for dinner. After a while, two maintenance workers came, did something quickly, and told us they had “turned off the socket” and that everything was fine. We weren’t convinced and said this didn’t feel safe. They told us the hotel would call us shortly. About 10–15 minutes later, guest services called us — but only to say that “the socket is turned off” and that we just needed to wait until the floor dries. I’m attaching videos and pictures of the situation. Again, we completely understand that technical issues can happen anywhere, but in this kind of situation, the room should have been taken out of service immediately, and we should have been moved to another room. The way this issue was handled was completely unacceptable for a hotel that positions itself as premium and has received so many awards. After that incident, we honestly just wanted to go home. We didn’t feel safe there anymore. To sum up: we understand that mistakes and technical problems can happen anywhere — but the way the staff handled such a dangerous situation was beyond disappointing. It shows a lack of care for guests’ safety. We left feeling very disappointed and uncomfortable, and we cannot recommend this hotel to others because of that. However, since there were also some positives, I don’t think it would be fair to rate it lower than 3 stars. But we are giving 3 stars only because we believe in being fair — not because the experience deserved it.
- GSB4513 (10/5): Fabulous hotel - Arrived home on 03/10/25 after 11 nights and our 8 visit to The Residence (2nd this year!). It’s no wonder this hotel wins so many awards and has so many returning guests, Aslihan and team are so friendly and welcoming it’s like being welcomed back by the family, everyone goes above and beyond to make sure your holiday is the best it can be. For us it’s everything we want and is our paradise! The hotel is situated just 30/40 minutes from the airport and in such a position that you can get out and about to the surrounding areas, we love visiting Gocek, Callis, Fethiye, Olu Deniz, and doing a boat trip from Fethiye harbour is a must do! We arrived at the hotel in the early hours on 23/09/25 via private transfer (VIP). Thankfully we were served a cool glass of champagne, with a cold towel and chocolates upon arrival. We had such a lovely surprise to find out that we’d been upgraded to a swim up room (4305) with other surprises in store for us. Big thank you Aslihan for listening and putting things right following some issues experienced during our earlier visit this year! The House keeping team were fantastic as usual, rooms are so spacious and kept spotlessly clean, upon arrival you have a bowl of fruit and chocolates left for you, as previous reviews the room has everything you could want and more! Drinks selection and mini bar is exceptional. The mattress and pillows are just simply the best ever! It was cold on several evenings due the bad weather, we asked for an extra quilt and it was there in 5 minutes! Plus personal touches in the rooms for returning guests eg flowers and handwritten card on arrival, and the night before check out, a fan and book mark was left in the room with a lovely handwritten note, these are appreciated. The view from the hotel is so special, looking out across the beach/sea over to Fethiye and the mountain range is stunning. The Grounds/Gardens are kept immaculately clean and the gardeners do an amazing job across both hotels. The variety of plants and flowers is superb and we loved the pomegranate tree on the way to the beach. Well done to the manager for the grounds/gardens (Seda’s husband). The Hairdressers and beauty salon is based over in Sensatori side, and you will find the salon by the gym/indoor pool they provide an excellent selection of treatments for everyone at very good prices. The Spa, overall the experience was greatly improved this time, the sea breeze package was very good indeed, the prices are on the expensive side but it’s a lovely treat. Well done for listening and improving the service. The choice of day and night activities at both hotels is exceptional. Over on the Sensatori side we again experienced the Octoberfest weekend which was great fun and the choice of food and beer/drinks on offer was fantastic! Of an evening the live fly in acts on at the Cuphea were brilliant. Plus a great addition is the live music in the Balkon cocktail bar/restaurant and there’s the acts on over in Sensatori Piano Bar, Boardwalk, and we enjoyed the music on the new beach bar too. The menu choice and standard of the food served in each restaurant is excellent, there is also the daily theme menu each evening in the Repertory restaurant and if you can’t find anything you like just ask and they will do there best to accommodate you. Massive shout out goes to all the staff members front and back of house, they all go over and above to make sure your holiday is as perfect as it can be. Special mention to the gentleman who cleans the glass panels across all the walkways every day you do a superb job, and also to the fantastic Isik, Seda, Mustfa, Murat, Suleyman, Mehmet, Sarah, Tommy and Jansue and many many more across the restaurants and bars. The pool bar and Cuphea teams also work extremely hard in such heat at times and will make you whatever drink you want, they are just brilliant we loved the frozen mudslide, Jacko, jammie dodger, to name a few. In the Balkon restaurant/cocktail bar, what a special place this is, the standard of the Turkish breakfast and seafood dinner is outstanding… thanks again to all the waiters who served us, this is such a special service and experience. Plus the cocktails are at another level, a few favourites this time eg Akira, Ambrosia, the best ever French 75, and French Martini, to name a few! On the Sensatori side we’d like to thank some of the fantastic restaurant team, Gem/Cem (Main Restaurant) Ulas (Amber), and Raifa (Tao), to name a few. We really enjoyed the food in the Tao this time. Michelle the TUI rep, is very knowledgeable and helpful, we do hope you enjoy your winter season. See you back at The Residence in 2026! Finally thank you again Aslihan and all the team for a wonderful holiday. Happy memories! Looking forward to seeing you all again in September 2026, and we can’t wait to see what improvements have been made over the winter months?! Gaynor & Lynette xx
- Tourist44581340507 (10/5): Amazing more than 5* - We have been here 2 years running and booked for next year as soon as we got home!! This is truly my happy place. We have been to many 5* hotels and often felt let down and unhappy with some aspect of the hotel. Not here, we cannot fault this amazing hotel!! Everything is fantastic, all the staff, the food, the rooms, the cabanas, the service!! But it’s all those little extras that make this hotel superior!! I am counting the days until we return!
- F1159WJvickys (10/5): Perfect - This was our first visit but we’ve already booked to go back next September. The hotel environment is beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean; the staff work on this constantly and it ensures a feel of elegant luxury at all times. Food is wonderful and the serving staff are some of the best in the business. Our penthouse suite was perfect for us and cleaned and turned down beautifully daily. Thank you to the team who really make the place feel like a haven of peace and provide kind, thoughtful attentive service whilst always smiling. We can’t with to return!
- roseHerts (10/5): Wonderful again didn’t want to come home. - The minute you step into the relaxing atmosphere of the The Residence hotel it’s like having a BIG bear hug.Seeing the friendly staff who recognise you meant a lot to us. We had a beautiful corner Seaview room on the second floor with lovely views.There was a lovely flower display on the table with a card from Aslihan Atil the general manager also when she is out and about she is very friendly.Our room was looked after by a lovely lady who kept us clean and tidy. Turn down service was excellent, she was efficient and friendly. Themed nights menu gives you good choices or if you prefer there is another menu for more choice. The meals were well presented and very tasty We loved the different coffees,chocolates and cakes served to you in the bar,we just had to walk in and the staff knew what we wanted to drink. Next door at Sensatori they had Oktoberfest,it was great, such a lot of hard work to organise.We loved going on the beach the guy, was always asking if we wanted a drink you never get thirsty here. All the staff are friendly and helpful always asking if they could do anything for you?Begum on reception helped us with something which took her sometime to sort out.Isik was her usual helpful self making sure we were okay. Once you come to this hotel you are Hooked, this was our fifth visit and we have rebooked for 2026.Sports activities my partner loved the archery sessions they were back to back but other keep fit activities were usually one in the morning and one in the afternoon if TUI could organise it better that would make me very happy.We had a late flight so we booked a late checkout so happy that we did. Sylvia & Alan ☺️
- ChampagnePop (10/5): Wonderful Stay as Always - My husband and I just returned from another wonderful stay at the Residence, Fethiye. I can honestly say that this is one, if not the best, hotels we’ve ever stayed at, and believe me when I say, I am well travelled. We have stayed at the Residence several times now, and can't fault it in anyway. The first time in a Lake View Villa with a champagne Butler, and this time we stayed in one of the swim-up rooms (4405), which was perfect and so peaceful. Lots of foliage in front to buffer the main pool and swim up bar. The direct pool access was great, with one double lounger to share and 2 loungers directly in the water. One of the things we love most is that the resort is adults-only, which makes it peaceful, calm and relaxing. There are good choices of restaurants but our favourite was Cuphea. It had a lovely atmosphere, entertainment around 10pm whilst seated and the service was fabulous. The care and attention from the staff is fantastic. I dropped a bottle of coke out of our fridge and it smashed cutting my leg. Within minutes of calling reception, a medic and a nurse arrived to check on me and to clean up the cut, In the meantime, a cleaner arrived to remove every bit of glass. Every single person goes out of their way to smile and make you feel welcome and looked after. We did go into Fethiye town by cab, which reception will order for you at a cost of around 800 lira. Note: On one occasion, we were unable to get a swim up room at the Residence, so we stayed next door at the Sister hotel that is connected, the Akra Fethiye TuiBLUE Sensatori. It's more of a family hotel, but also has adult only rooms (some with swim ups) and areas, including an adult only pool. We had an adult swim up and that was just as lovely, but the room was smaller than the ones in the Residence. If you’re considering booking, don’t hesitate, you will love this hotel and will want to return as soon as you leave. Hurry though as it gets booked up well in advance.
- LadyRedEm (10/5): The perfect balance of luxury and comfort - We stayed at The Residence in May and it was, quite honestly, one of the best resort experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the staff stood out as exceptional – attentive, prompt, and often going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. They remembered drinks orders and made us feel genuinely well looked after. Housekeeping was equally impressive, consistently cleaning to an incredibly high standard not just in the rooms, but across the entire property. The food and drink were lovely, and we really valued the flexibility of being able to use both the Residence restaurant and the neighbouring sister resort. Arriving late at night, we were still able to have a proper meal before bed – a small detail that made a big difference. The 24-hour menu itself is understandably limited, but it’s still a thoughtful feature. Themed evening menus were pleasant, though occasionally could have used a little more seasoning and flavour! The hotel décor is modern, luxurious and stylish, with spacious rooms that feel very well designed. Our swim-up room was huge and beautifully equipped, with a comfortable bed, excellent lighting and a thoughtful vanity area near natural light for hair and makeup (something I feel many hotels overlook). The lagoon-style pool is wonderful – nestled amongst lush plants and foliage, it feels very calming and private. Having a swim-up room meant we didn’t use the main loungers, but we did notice there were always plenty available and the pool area never felt crowded. Facilities are also excellent. The gym is very well equipped, relatively spacious, and often empty – perfect if you want to keep up with workouts while away. There’s also a courtesy lounge for guests without late check-out, a really thoughtful touch that means you can still enjoy the hotel’s amenities and freshen up before travelling home. Evenings featured live music acts, which we enjoyed, but it’s worth noting that the sound from the Cuphea Bar carries. If you’re a light sleeper or prefer an early night, you might find it a little loud, as the music sometimes went on about half an hour longer than necessary. Overall: this hotel has set the bar so high that I’m not sure anywhere else will compare! I have incredibly high standards, and The Residence met – and in many areas, surpassed – every single one of them. A truly special place that I would return to without hesitation.
- L4089IKeleanorc (10/5): Another Lovely Holiday - Our fourth visit, and once again, The Residence did not disappoint. Yes, some of the more experienced staff have disappeared to the new hotels, but once again we found the level of service continued to be excellent. All staff were good, but particularly outstanding were: Onur, Zehra, Suleyman, Murvet and Veysel. And how could we finish without mentioning Isik, who, as always was outstanding. Thank you to all. See you next year.
- Molineuxmix999 (10/5): A wonderful experience - Exceptional. This is a superb place for a relaxing, sophisticated holiday for adults. The food is great, everywhere in the resort is spotless, and the entertainment is first class. But where The Residence excels is in the service. Without exception, the staff are gracious, charming and efficient. By a very long way, this is the best holiday we have ever had, and we will keep on returning. One very minor niggle - despite three visits to the room a day by staff (morning housekeeping, evening turndown, and bar replenishment) no one seemed to take responsibility for clearing used items. As a result, there were always dirty cups/glasses, and empty bottles on the surfaces. Other than that perfect.
- HannahBX1 (10/5): Excellent but… - The moment you arrive at the hotel you can tell that it’s something special , everything immaculately clean and the grounds / plants just breathtaking I can’t imagine the effort it must take to keep it so nice . The lake-house suite was incredible ( we had bottom floor ) ,they had decorated it with balloons and a sign for my partners birthday and gave us a cake on the day , was such a nice suprise! We had a butler with the suite called Zeki who was very good , bringing us snacks and ice-creams whenever we wanted we just had to wattsap him . We ate at the main restaurant for most meals , everything ordered off a menu all the food was just amazing and we are really missing it now we are home ! We also had breakfast and dinner at the Balkon ( very different but still delicious ) dinner comes included when you book a lake-house but i think you have to pay otherwise. This is by far and wide the best food / cocktails / snack selection we have ever experienced in a hotel , the staff are so eager to help too and get you whatever you’d like . We both put on quite a bit of weight in just one week ! What we also liked is that it never seemed busy , we always seemed to get our favourite seat in the restaurant , there are always plenty of free sun-beds , all service was quick and professional it was very quiet during the morning / early afternoon . The most relaxing place for us was the beach , lying on sun-bed listening to the waves and birds singing , waiter brings any drinks you want just order off qr code , had some lovely naps and quiet hours reading . Also recommend booking a cabana as this was really the ultimate in luxury and relaxation and well worth the money. I have to say staff here are amazing , so polite and professional the best we have experienced in a hotel by far . There is however one negative that I feel people who book a lake-house suite should be aware of , especially ones nearer to the Cuphea bar . Every night from 2130-2330 very loud music blasts from live bands playing , this is honestly so loud that it vibrates the walls due to the bass and volume, so if you plan to retire to your room before 2330 then don’t expect to be able to sleep/ relax / watch tv or do anything at all. This was a huge contrast to the relaxing vibes through the day . I did mention this to the Tui rep the next morning who suggested I ask reception for ear plugs so I did - they told me to go buy some myself and pointed towards the shops about 10 mins away and did not seem at all interested or ask me anything further about it . The TUI app sent a notification asking for feedback about the holiday so I also mentioned it in there and left my details for a manager to contact me . Nobody did. If reception had maybe at least acknowledged what I was saying or just gave me some cheap plugs to at least show willing I would have felt better about it . This did leave us feeling a bit disappointed for a while because we spent thousand and thousands (and thousands !) of pounds for the lake-house suite , we’re not sure if we would again because of the noise . Just to put in perspective I wore earplugs ( very cheap from local shop ) plus my noise cancelling headphones and could still hear every word of the music plus the bass so strong could feel vibrations through my head and chest. We understand live music is part of it but the volume and bass was way too loud for the small crowd listening around the bar , it was really quite shocking and we are surprised not more reviews mention it ( although looking through I can see it has been mentioned a few times ). After some reflection it does not seem right to mark it down to 4 stars on the review as everything else was that excellent however it is only fair to let others booking a lakehouse this is potentially what you will get and bring decent expensive earplugs if you feel it will bother you .
- Kirst198930 (10/5): The Best Honeymoon 🖤 - Me & My Husband came here for our honeymoon on the 8th September 2025 we knew how amazing it was going to be as we visited back in 2019 when it first opened! We believe it’s got even better!!! Stayed in a lakeside swim up suite (ground floor) amazing, massive shout out to Zeki our butler, couldn’t do enough for us. The sun appeared about 12ish till like 6pm. We loved this room however we didn’t make the most of it, as it’s very private and quiet, (we love to chat to people hahaha) so we went round the main pool more than we stayed in our pool. But I do understand why people love the lake houses. The food… was AMAZING in the main restaurant, massive shout out to Mustafa, Fatma & Isik, always welcomed with a smile & they couldn’t do enough for you, so attentive. We also ate at the Cuphea for dinner & tea, all meals here were amazing. Specially the grilled watermelon, a firm fave!!! The drinks in the Balkon bar were unreal, the best porn star martinis! We met some amazing people, hopefully see some of you next September! We can’t wait to return!
- Olcan (10/5): Temiz ve konforlu bir otel - Ailece rahat rahat kalinacak, vakit gecirilecek bir otel. Kaldığımız oda ve diğer yaşam alanları gayet temizdi.
- Anna5 (10/5): The Residence - A Beautiful Hotel. - We have just enjoyed another 2 weeks at this beautiful hotel, this was our third visit, it is really becoming our favourite place to be. This time we stayed in a standard room, but it was in the same block as our previous visit, as we had requested through an email to the hotel. I actually liked this room more than the Junior Suite; the layout felt better to me, particularly in the bathroom area, which seemed to offer more space. The room was incredibly quiet; we could barely hear our neighbours, and housekeeping did an excellent job. The mattress and pillows were so comfortable—no stiff neck or aching back—I really need to get this kind for my home. The service and staff were first rate; everyone was incredibly polite and genuinely happy to see us, making us feel very welcome. They truly went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The food and drinks were top class. We mostly dined at the Cuphea for lunch and dinner and always found something we enjoyed. The Repertory was excellent too, but since we're not big foodies and have small appetites, we often opted for a starter and dessert, much to the amusement of the waiting staff. We loved spending our mornings at the beach, swimming in the mostly warm sea, with plenty of sunbeds always available. In the afternoons, we sought shade in the grassy or wooded area facing the sea, where there were many double sunbeds that were rarely used, making it so peaceful. The grounds are stunning, filled with an array of plants and flowers. As a keen gardener, I want to extend a special thanks to the gardening team—we truly appreciate the immense effort it takes to maintain such beauty. I should mention that I usually attract stinging or biting insects, but no mosquito bites or wasp stings here—something I rarely get to say about my holidays. A heartfelt thanks to all the wonderful staff who put in so much effort to make our stay delightful. We're looking forward to seeing you again in June next year.
- juliaeB6509SO (10/5): The Residence first timers! - I am writing this review having had a fantastic week with my husband at this hotel. The weather is beautiful - a lovely 30 degrees during the day and warm enough in the evening for summer dresses, short sleeves and shorts. The hotel is clearly efficiently run and the staff are professional, friendly and you feel very well looked after. We would like to say thank you to everyone. We would like to mention the following members of staff and thank them for the following: Emre for showing us around when we first arrived and organising delivery of our cases to our room seamlessly Kezban for keeping our room immaculate Murot for looking after us at breakfast and dinner in a professional and friendly way Omer at the Cuphea bar for his friendliness, we could see he works hard but has a calm, relaxing vibe! I had a fantastic spa treatment during my stay so I would like to say a big thank you also to Ari, Tugba and Sara, the lovely ladies who made me feel totally relaxed and cared for. We have met lots of couples who have returned to this hotel several times and we are seriously considering doing the same!
- Gürkan (6/5): Akra kalitesi alamadık - Plaj ve deniz umduğumuz gibi değildi. Şezlongların yenilenmesi gerekiyor. Otel havuz tatili yapmak isteyenler için uygun gibiydi. Yemek kalitesi çok başarılı değildi. Personel genel olarak güleryüzlü davrandı. Alacartlar için aynı gün rezervasyon kabul etmediler o yüzden gidemedik yardımcı olmadılar. Otel fiyat performansta sınıfta kaldı. Otelde Akra otellerinin kalitesi yoktu.
- X5180MKmarkc (10/5): Outstanding Holiday - Another outstanding holiday on our third visit to The Residence. Everything was perfect including, facilities, cleanliness, food, activities & most of all the staff. Some stand out performers I am keen to highlight; Gurkha on Reception, Reyha at the pool & Melike, Murat, Seda, Mustafa & Fatima in the restaurants. This Hotel is very well run. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending & hope to visit again in the future.
- M4610YMduncanm (10/5): Relaxing - Excellent hotel brilliant staff everywhere so relaxed.The food was very nice and of a good quality.The only thing I would suggest is to let the foliage between swim up rooms grow more so as you get more privacy between the rooms.
- Onur (10/5): - Evet
- Pemo99 (10/5): Another Amazing Visit 😀 - We have just returned from our 7th visit to this amazing hotel and once again has exceeded all our expectations. Every time we return, we worry that it cannot possibly live up to the previous visit. We should have known that this place just keeps getting better and better! The standard of food and drink is incredible but what really makes The Residence such a special place is the staff. Everyone that you come into contact with on a daily basis, housekeeping, gardening team, bar, pool and restaurant staff, as well as the front desk and management team are all incredible. Everyone goes out of their way to ensure that you are having a great holiday. Every single member of the team that we came into contact with were all extremely friendly and professional, however, there are a few members of the team that we would like to give a special mention to. Duygu (Repertory) - Such a friendly and professional member of the team. She always brightened our day. She is such a special member of the team. Murvet (Cuphea) - Always smiling and making sure you are well looked after. Zehra and Dougkan (Cuphea bar) - What a team! They always make sure nobody has an empty glass. Rehya (Pool service) Such a hard working member of the team and always has a smile. Seda (Repertory) - Looked after us at breakfast every morning. What a great start to the day. Last but certainly not least, the amazing general manager Aslihan. For someone in such a senior position, she is extremely approachable and is always engaging with guests to ensure they are having a great time. You can tell that she has the respect of her team and through her leadership, she and her team have created such a special place which keeps people returning year after year. We are already looking forward to our next visit 😀
- PeterPauline (10/5): Fantastic Hotel - We have recently returned after an excellent stay at The Residence. This hotel just says class. It was superb. We booked a Junior Suite in Block 46 with excellent views over the forest to the beach. The room had loads of extras, such as a well stocked fridge, 3 different spirits and snacks. The lighting in the room was probably the best we have experienced in a hotel - particularly useful for my wife when doing her make up in the evening. The wardrobe had plentiful ordinary wooden hangars as opposed to the fiddly anti-theft hangars you find in most hotel rooms. I think the main purpose of doing this review is to mention the staff. A big shout out must go to the General Manager and her team who have recruited a happy, well trained and extremely efficient staff. A big thank you to each and every one of them who make our stay so good. We would just like to give a mention to some who contributed greatly to our stay. Ayca(s) & Burak - Reception; Kezban - Cleaner; Mutlu - Everywhere. Dilay (Delightful), Duygu, Zehra, Mehmet,Esra, Halil, Islay, Veysel & Esen - Lobby Bar, Poolside & Cuphea Bar. We would like to give a special mention to Rehya and Furkan - Poolside. Two of the most hard working employees we have come across. They were superb. Not sure if they wear FitBit watches, but if they do their steps must be off the scale at the end of a working day. Thank you. Would highly recommend a holiday at The Residence.
- angelag296 (10/5): Another amazing stay in Paradise. - Just home from another wonderful holiday at The Residence. This was our 4th visit and we have already booked for next year. We had the most relaxing time. The staff are all so friendly and go out of their way to make sure you are having the best experience. There are always plenty of sun loungers no matter what time you go to the pool. The ambience is just amazing. We loved the Cuphea entertainment in the evenings and the Balkan cocktails are superb. The pool is just magical with all the banana plants and vegetation around it, definitely one of the best we have encountered. Was lovely to make some new friends and meet up with our Scottish pals. We had such a laugh. Frightened to stand on the scale as there is so much choice for food, drinks, chocolates,ice-cream and cakes. Thank you for another fabulous holiday and see you again next September.
- gill8bha (10/5): Wow is an understatement - There aren't enough words to sum up this place. We've just had the most amazing week away in absolute paradise!! Nothing is too much trouble for the fantastic staff. Special mentions to Memet who welcomed us like family, Mustafa who we saw each morning for a sumptuous breakfast and Zeki who was our personal waiter when we had candlelight dinner in a cabana on our anniversary. We hope they will be there when we come back next year 🙏 We were in block 46 which had beautiful sea views, a huge bed, jacuzzi and more drink/ refreshments that you could ever get through. I've never stayed in such beautiful grounds. The lagoon pool had so much room to swim in, although there did seem to be an odd current that pulled you towards the pool bar no matter whether you were swimming or on a pool float 🤣. We tried most of the cocktails, of course. They were all delicious. We also had full use of the facilities in the hotel next door, brilliant aqua class each day and plenty to keep you entertained throughout the day and night. I've come home exhausted but so happy that this place was recommended by friends (who are still there now sending us happy pics) and can't wait to go back.
- dollyparton_10 (10/5): Perfection - We arrived for our fifth visit after a very early flight to be met by the general manager Aslihan and Michelle the Tui rep like we were family what a welcome ! Each year just gets better and better this year the new cocktails are off the scale amazing ! The food is delicious in every restaurant beautifully prepared and presented . The whole resort is immaculate and the rooms spotlessly clean spacious and more than comfortable. The staff here are truly amazing all such kind genuinely lovely people who go out of their way to ensure you have a memorable stay . Special mentions go to Zeki , Veysel, Emrah , Isik, Onur and dynamic himself Namik who with his excellent English and welcoming greeting of hello you two always was met with a huge smile this man is going places ! We are already booked to return twice next year and are counting down the days !
- Alfiecookie8 (10/5): Superb, feel good Hotel! - The Residence is a wonderful hotel because of the luxurious rooms, terrific facilities & amazing staff. From the incredible reception and Management, waiters,bar, cleaners and ground staff it is simply the best for friendly, helpful people to make your holiday the best possible. The pilates and Yoga instructors were also brilliant. Selman is fantastic the best pool waiter in the universe he always brought a drink with a smile & cheered us up every day. Alina from Cuphea is the most beautiful, kind & thoughtful waitress she is a real diamond. Namik is exceptional & deserves promotion to Butler.He has worked hard with his professionalism & his English. I was really impressed at how far he has came since first met him last year. The Residence would not be the same without them.❤️ Special mentions to some of the outstanding staff I remember Vasel, Hassan, Emra, Fatima, Tuna, Onur, Ofug & Mustafa. Also Michelle from TUI is so lovely, friendly and always extremely helpful. I wish I could remember the names of all the staff but it's been a few months and I should have written review earlier. I have never returned to a hotel more than twice so the fact we are returning again in May says it all. This is the best hotel for adults, its the things like the comfortable cabanas, mini bar treats, 🍸 first class cocktails and tasty food with luxurious surroundings & as mentioned the best staff... it can't be beat. We would have liked a 70/80/90s disco at night maybe the Management might consider doing one each week i am sure this would be a big hit with most people. Thank you for another super holiday❣️ 🥂
- pawe_pI3465ZL (10/5): A Perfect Stay: 10/10 Experience at an Incredible Hotel - An amazing hotel with incredibly friendly people. Beautiful rooms, a stunning pool, food worthy of a Netflix cooking show, and fantastic drinks! Special thanks to Fatma and Furkan – so dedicated, kind, and approachable people like them are truly a treasure. We hope to see them again next year because we’ve already booked our next vacation at this incredible place. I’m usually very critical, but this is a full 10/10. Every wish was fully met. We can’t wait to come back to this hotel!
- lorrainewL9908JH (10/5): Fantastic hotel, fantastic staff - We had a fabulous time at The Residence. Everyone went above and beyond to make our holiday fantastic! Special mention to Namik at Cuphea and the Cabana. He was nothing short of amazing. We also loved the young man at breakfast in the middle indoor section. He was so sweet and attentive (sorry we didn’t see his name). The cleaning and turn down staff were brilliant. Our room was so well catered. The whole hotel is simply beautiful. We’ve already booked to come back next year and we were sad to leave today. Thank you to everyone for a great holiday. 🥰
- Adnan (8/5): - Çalışanlar çok güleryüzlü ve pozitifti. Yemekler iyiydi. Deniz akşama doğru çok dalgalıydı ve kumluydu. Genel olarak çok keyifli bir seyahatti.
- Adventurer136892 (10/5): An absolute treat - From the moment we arrived at the hotel it just felt like such a treat We had a swim up room ( 4406 ) that we thought was amazing The room never got a lot of afternoon sun it was gone by 2.30 but this was maybe due to the time of year Our room was well serviced each day by Filiz She was so pleasant , as was all the other staff members that we engaged with I booked a wash and blow dry at the hotel next door Best € 20 I spent Could I suggest to the hotel that they could put a telescope out at night for guest to enjoy the fabulous dark skies Will we return Yes To gaze at the dark skies 😉
- Ledyyy (10/5): Felt like home with such kind and attentive people!! - We had such an amazing holiday at this hotel, and I would love to share how wonderful the experience was. From the very first day until the last moment, every single staff member was so warm, friendly, and always willing to help with a smile. You can really feel that they care about the guests, and that makes all the difference. I especially want to thank Esra at the beach, who always took care of us with great attention and kindness. Spending time at the beach felt even more enjoyable thanks to her. At Cuphea Rest, Namık made every meal special with his professionalism and positive energy – he really made us feel at home. And in the mornings, Fatma at breakfast greeted us with such a big smile every day and made sure we started our day perfectly. These little touches stayed in our hearts and made our stay unforgettable. Of course, it’s not just them – every person working at the hotel was so polite, caring, and attentive. You never felt like just another guest, but rather like a valued friend. That’s why we truly enjoyed every moment here. I can honestly say this hotel gave us one of the most relaxing and memorable holidays we’ve ever had. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a place where you can not only rest but also feel genuinely welcomed.
- Nuri (10/5): Huzurlu ve keyifli bir tatil çok mutlu oldum ❤️ - Temizlik ilgi alaka iletişim her şey tek kelime ile muazzam di teşekkür ederim seneye görüşmek üzere 🙏
- NorfolkC (10/5): Excellent stay as always! - We have been lucky enough to visit & stay at the Residence on many occasions, since it opened. Some years visiting up to 3 times, this year we’ve just returned from our 2nd visit. We will certainly look to return in 2026, we can’t fault this beautiful resort, which is why we continue to book, as do many other guests. The staff have always been courteous, polite, friendly & all go that extra mile in making the holiday an amazing one. Thank you to all of you at The Residence!
- I4285UBangelaa (10/5): WOW 🤩- the staff really make this venue - My friend and I have just returned from our holiday at The Residence at TUI BLUE Sensatori Akra, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! My friend is a regularly, however, this was my first visit. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations, and a big part of what made our stay so unforgettable was the exceptional staff. We stayed in one of the penthouses, and it was absolutely stunning—clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. The mini bar was always well-stocked, which made for some nice, relaxing evenings. The only tiny thing I'd mention is the lack of electrical sockets in the wardrobe area and at the dressing table. It would’ve been more convenient to have them there for getting ready. But honestly, this is a minor detail compared to all the positives! A huge shoutout to the fantastic staff who made our stay extra special: 🌟 Mustafa (Repatory) – such a kind, gentle, and humble young man. He really made us feel welcome. 🌟 Namik (Cuphea) – so attentive and friendly! His excellent English and ability to remember our favourite drinks made us feel like VIPs. 🌟 Ezra & Omer Faruk (Balkon) – hands down the best cocktail makers we’ve ever met! They were friendly, hardworking, and made each cocktail with a smile. 🌟 Sinner (Cuphea Bar) – great barman. He makes the most amazing Salted Caramel Martinis, so friendly and fun too. 🌟 Zina – what a voice and what a talent! The music entertainment throughout the week was absolutely amazing, and he made the evenings so much fun. Overall, our time at The Residence was absolutely fantastic. I’ll definitely be back – even if it’s just to see these lovely, familiar faces again! ❤️🍸🥂
- josiek637 (4/5): Theft operating within the hotel - Not sure where to start really. 1. Booking & Check-In Easy to book in on arrival. We arrived at 2am - transfer was about an hour roughly from Dalaman airport. Comfortable coach which offered drinks and snacks ( payable) it did take some time for our suitcases to arrive as they insisted they took them for us but would have been easier if we were allowed to take them ourselves. Especially as we were tired and located in block 42 opposite the gym. 2. Room -The room is beautiful with bath / sink / wardrobes and safe. The bed is really comfortable. -Mini bar stocked with branded soft and alcoholic beverages which are free of charge and re stocked daily. -Bonus hairdryer & straighteners which were actually decent but if you have long hair - take your own hairdryer. The rooms are clean with shampoo, conditioner, soap, bath salts and additional bits and pieces. In block 42 it can be noisy with the gym right opposite which is open 24 hours. The door to the exit has an old and tired fan which we could hear over the air con in our room, I did question the chaperone but he said it’s just the noise the fan makes… luckily I was able to go out and turn this off myself as it was making a racket and would keep me awake. This requires some attention as it was noisy and you can hear this 2 rooms down! 3. Service & Staff The service was at times very slow in the main restaurant for a ‘5*+’ hotel. Sometimes waiting for 15 minutes before someone came and offered you a hot drink at breakfast. The staff were however friendly and would get you what you wanted. The pool bar were fantastic and work so hard. Big shout out to their lovely smiley service. Service for food was much quicker at the Cuphea. We were unfortunately victims of a crime during our stay at the hotel - where our suitcases and bags had been gone through during our day at the Cabana and money was taken. Response from the customer relations (front desk) staff and management was non existent as I explain later. 4. Food & Drink The food was OK - I wouldn’t say it was any different to any of the 4 star hotels we have stayed in. The themed nights were nice in the main restaurant. The complementary bread and oil we found to be hard. We didn’t use any of the a la carte restaurants but there is a lot of variety with being able to use the facilities next door so you have plenty of options. 5. Facilities & Amenities The pool is beautiful - and never felt over crowded. The guys at the pool bar are fantastic and will make you anything. I’d reccomend their frozen mango and strawberry daiquiris. We lived off of these! The gym is great - we toured the spa but due to a certain amount of our TL being stolen we were unable to afford the treatment. It smells incredible though. 6. Location Location was ok but unfortunately the beach isn’t private which means if you want the beach it isn’t adults only with many members of the public there / loud music etc. The sea is lovely for a swim. Take sea shoes as it is Stoney at first. 7. Value for Money Don’t get me wrong, the hotel is beautiful and clean and the waiting staff were great, however in my opinion I would say it is overpriced for what it is… we think the Atlantica Imperial in Rhodes is better value for money with much more accommodating management and friendlier vibe where customer satisfaction is of upmost importance. 8. Overall Impression We rented a cabana on the 15th August - ( number 8) and we got engaged - it was a lovely day. We said we would love to come back again - until we realised that our suitcases had been ransacked during our day on the beach and money was stolen from our room. We had money in the safe provided and both of us had additional small amounts of money either hidden ( mine within a purse within my underwear packing cube, stored in my suitcase ) and my partner in a wallet stored in his day rucksack which was also in his suitcase within the wardrobe. I had put the exact amount of English money in my purse for a horse riding excursion. This was placed in my underwear packing cube, in my suitcase, in the wardrobe ( completely out of sight ) I realised that £20 had been taken plus additional petty coins as I noticed my clothes and underwear was all out of place with my suitcase opened within the wardrobe. My partner then realised that his bag was open and about £100 worth of TL was missing. We knew instantly it had been taken as we hadn’t spent anything as was saving it for horse riding and either a trip to the spa or boat trip to Fethiye. I was obviously very distressed and reported this to the TUI ladies straight away. They passed this onto the desk staff opposite. Someone came to the room to check the door cards but no one spoke to us. Apparently this had never happened there before… although I’m sure the unofficial page on Facebook will tell you otherwise… You can imagine this was very distressing for both of us, and the least we deserved from the hotel management was some acknowledgment and some empathy. A show of face was crucial at this stage, however we were completely ignored. We were told by the TUI ladies that someone would accompany the service staff entering our room but this never happened and therefore felt our items were unsafe. We stayed in our room and observed them ourselves to ensure this couldn't happen again. My partner had gone to the desk several times to speak to duty managers where he was brushed off and was even told it was bad to accuse this had even happened in the first place. . . I was in tears at this point. It wasn’t about the money taken - in the grand scheme of things it wasn’t a lot. It was the principle that a member of their team had been through our belongings leaving us violated. There was no empathy or compassion shown in such a serious matter which ultimately ruined a holiday we had saved and worked so hard for. They simply said they wouldn’t accept liabilty and TUI deal with those matters. It wasn’t their responsibility as they had checked outdoor security cameras… We then went back to the TUI staff to explain how we felt in a private setting as we could see the staff at the front desk smirking and laughing about the situation which added to our feelings of discomfort. TUI advised to get the police and had spoken to front desk but they said it wouldn’t be worth it ( which ultimately it wasn’t but we wanted them to take us seriously and feel seen, so we did …) Once we knew the mini bar staff had been and gone from our room that day we went for lunch, which we were pulled away from as the police arrived. Everyone was very uncomfortable and TUI had obviously not dealt with police there before. Another couple at the hotel had money stolen on their cabana day during the same week, so also spoke to them. A manager translated but completely ignored us, just said ‘open door’ ’tell me’ then left with the police not even acknowledging us or apologizing we were having to go through such an ordeal it was like we were being punished for raising this to them - we of course had no idea what they were saying to the police or offered any follow up. It certainly took the 5* element out of our so called special stay and was quite frankly a stressful ordeal. We witnessed a 3rd couple on their checkout for departure who also had money stolen, clearly saying that they had enjoyed their stay despite lack of aftercare from management around their theft which could have easily been rectified by writing off their €90 cabana. They probably would have returned if this had happened. The staff at the desk laughed at her and said she couldn’t prove it and they would call the police if she failed to pay. She was obviously very distressed and it was made into a public ordeal which was so uncomfortable for those that witnessed it. They didn’t offer her a private room and continued to mock her in public. I stated I had too been a victim of a crime and they simply laughed. She eventually paid whilst the staff huddled together smirking and laughing at her as she departed. At this point, I had my suitcase packed and was counting down the hours until our check out. Not what you pay £5K for … right? We appreciate that theft can happen in any hotel at any star rating and it was money that wasn’t kept in the safe. We accept that is on us… however what you DON’T expect in a 5*+ TUI 50/50 ownership hotel is for staff to go through the depths of your possessions to steal from you, to then be made to feel so insignificant by management. We simply didn’t feel safe and we were at no point offered and reassurance. Upon our own checkout, we were not asked if we enjoyed our stay, if we were ok and were simply asked to pay €90 for our cabana ( the day money was stolen) We of course paid as we just wanted to get out of the toxic environment of the front desk / lobby area where we were mocked and humiliated in front of other guests. This is the reason why we would not recommend this beautiful looking hotel and unfortunately would not return despite getting engaged here. Our experience at the Residence was completely tarnished by the way we were treated. Management are SO crucial in these serious situations and we would expect some level of professionalism from those working within this industry. We did not recieve this at any point and left feeling robbed of our holiday that we had been so looking forward to. It would have been easily rectified if someone had shown face, shown empathy and care towards their paying customers / guests. The impression we got was - give us your money and leave. Unfortunately if this is not taken seriously, the reputation of this ‘prestigious’ hotel will demise. So if you are going and have a trip booked - please ensure ALL of your money ( no matter how small) is locked away in the safe at all times - keep a log of what you have spent ( take photos / keep receipts as if anything was to happen, you will need to prove it and probably still won’t be taken seriously or shown any compassion as you would expect) We left feeling like we were the criminals when ultimately we had been victims of a crime on their premises. SO disappointed and so many days of our holiday wasted / ruined due to the unprofessionalism of the staff management here. We had never felt so relieved to leave a hotel ( which is completely unheard of ) Two names of people / managers to avoid: Onur and Gocktu. They made us feel rotten. As I said, grounds are great but Stay vigilant. Theft is happening within the grounds of this hotel and management will brush it off. Hopefully you won’t have to endure the terrible ordeal we faced and we pray wherever we end up next year makes us feel like we are intact valued customers.
- Mine (10/5): Mukemmel ötesi - Hersey o kadar mukemmeldi ki artik sadece bu otel zincirinde tatil yapacagim.
- O1798QWjohnk (10/5): pros and cons the resistance akra - mr and mrs kelly from sevenoaks. we had a amazing time. very relaxing . no fighting over sun loungers laid back lovely place. with fine dining. and great staff mehmet looked after us as a bar waiter and fatma are waitress in the main restaurant . we will definitely be going back the swim up rooms very smart and the bed was big and comfortable. the staff are very friendly and helpful. on the negative i had a bad meal on the beach which was terrible. but the main restaurant is lovely but don’t expect the chinese and indian to be like in the uk. it’s not but i still really enjoyed it if i could ask for 1 thing it would be a place at lunch time to get traditional turkish food
- joshsE7075XA (10/5): Amazing honeymoon! - This was our second stay at the Residence. We knew for our honeymoon, we needed to come back here! We stayed in a beautiful swim up room. It was huge and well equipped with a complimentary minibar and snacks that got topped up daily. Housekeeping ensured our room was clean throughout. The highlight of the room was definitely the swim up to the amazing pool. A big strength of the hotel is the pool with a brilliant swim up bar. I would like to mention Esra and Mercan behind the bar who were fantastic! They have a huge range of special cocktails as well as serving all the classics plus beer, wine and even coffee! The food at the Residence is fantastic. We eat almost entirely at the Repertory; having checked out the restaurants in the sister hotel last year.The breakfast at the Repertory features a huge range of cold and hot buffet options plus an extensive a la carte menu. The rest of the food was all a la carte with themes each night for dinner - the Turkish night was a real highlight. The service is absolutely perfect from all the waiting staff! I would like to shout out Mustapha and Mehmet who were especially friendly! I would thoroughly recommend the Residence, wish we could come back every year!
- Mohamed (10/5): Awsome - Excellent stay. I recommend if you are by Fethiye. Excellent staff and services.
- Alan (10/5): - Great all you can eat food with Turkish and international cuisine, great rooms, clean and comfortable beds. Best all inclusive resort I ever stayed. I stayed in hundreds of resorts for work (as an auditor for hotel chains) and pleasure around the world, and this was a great experience. The family rooms with two bedrooms and direct access to a semi-private pool is the best design I ever saw.
- happyholidays2008Uk (10/5): Impossible to beat! - It really is hard to find anywhere with the standards and facilities at the Residence. Our second stay and just as excellent as the first. We had a swim-up room which was fantastic and we chose to spend time on our own terrace rather than using the loungers around the pool. Rooms are very well appointed and cleaning services were great. Great snacks available too in the room with a good selection of drinks. Food was wonderful again. We mostly ate in the Repertory where service is excellent and there is a great variety to choose from. So nice not to have to battle through a buffet! Breakfast croissants with salmon are the best. Chef’s Night was one of our favourites, along with French night, where the fillet steak was excellent. Loved the salads and appetisers to share for lunch. During our last stay, we visited Cuphea for lunch regularly but didn’t feel the lunchtime menu was as good this time so only went once. We also enjoyed lunch at Basilico next door one of the days but it was often a bit busy with families so we tended to stick to the peace and quiet in the Residence. We did book to eat at the Sunset Steak one evening but cancelled as 50 euros per person is expensive when you’ve already paid such a lot for an all inclusive holiday (and you can eat steak in the repertory). Felt the same about Balkon that it should be included in the evening for a meal once per stay. We enjoyed some amazing cocktails in the Balkon bar in the evenings and the choice/quality of drinks available is great across the resort. The staff work so hard around the hotel and standards are incredibly high. Constant cleaning, gardening and maintenance which keeps everything immaculate. It’s no surprise that many guests are returning as the Residence is one of the most beautiful and relaxing hotels you could possibly stay in.
- emilysM4347MM (10/5): Fabulous holiday - We’ve just spent the last 2 weeks at this hotel and it has been amazing. We got engaged on our 4th evening and this was just the best place to celebrate and will always hold very special memories. We stayed next door in the Sensatori back in 2023 and just knew we always wanted to try The Residence and we were certainly not disappointed. The food is absolutely fantastic. There is such a wide variety and I loved being able to go to so many different places for our evening meals. Cuphea and the Food Repertory were our favourites. The steak on French night was excellent and my partner won’t stop talking about it! We also loved the fact that you could have a la carte breakfast every morning which we haven’t experienced in many other 5* hotels. The eggs benedict was incredible and this became our firm favourite! You can also have a selection of different foods from the breakfast buffet. We loved to sit in Balkon of an evening and enjoy Prosecco or cocktails. Emrah who works up there is fantastic. He will make absolutely anything you ask for and he is so skilled at what he does! He really made our trip that little bit more special as he was so attentive and lovely. We did the cocktail class at Balcon on a Tuesday with Mutlu at 5pm which was such good fun. Just remember to be on the Blue App at 5pm on Monday as that’s when the bookings go live and it fills up so fast! I’ve taken the recipes and will be making these at home as they were so good and the class was informative and great fun. Staff are fantastic everywhere and they honestly can’t do enough for you. Special thank you to Emrah, Mutlu, Suleyman, Fatma, Esra and Mehmet who provided fantastic service and were very attentive throughout our stay. The room was great and the mini bar had everything we needed along with snacks which was a lovely touch. There is plenty of sunbeds and you will get a sunbed whatever time of day so every morning was very slow and relaxed for us which was lovely. It has been an amazing, relaxing stay and we have lots of family that now want to come after showing them photos and talking about our holiday. We love to explore new places however I think we will be back in the future 🥰 My only criticism would be that the Prosecco served in other bars is not very nice and the one in Balkon/cuphea is different and tastes so much better! May be a good thing though as I would be drinking Prosecco all day otherwise 😂
- boomeruk (10/5): Excellent holiday (though perhaps small areas of improvement possible?) - So let me say from the outset that we love this place and any criticisms I may make below are minor in comparison to the whole joyous experience of staying here and I would highly recommend it for those in it's target audience. This was our 2nd stay having stayed the year before and we hope to stay again next year if we can find a suitable booking (a lot of dates are already seemingly nearly sold out - certainly for the swim up rooms - which is a testament to the popularity of the resort with many returning guests) So the Residence is essentially a standalone extension of the TUI Blue Sensatori which is right next door and is designed as an premier adults only all inclusive hotel with prices that can start to approach the ultra luxury resorts of Ikos etc. and in the main it compares very favourably with these resorts. My wife, adult daughter and I stayed in 2 swim up rooms which were next to each other. The rooms feel very premium with lots of tech, drinks and snacks. The air conditioning is also excellent (as it needs to be as it is very hot here in the summer) Housekeeping is very excellent and very thorough and numerous people will pop in everyday to replenish your drinks, snacks, towels and glass / cutlery. The also provide a turndown service but you seem to have to be out of your room for this to happen as otherwise they simply offer you fresh towels. Not a bit issue for us either way. There is a main restaurant which hosts a morning breakfast buffet alongside an ala carte menu. There are then lunch, rotating evening and late night / 24 hour menus. The are then numerous restaurants split between this hotel and the TUI Blue next door plus its buffet restaurant. This brings me to my first minor criticism - a number of these restaurants charge an additional 50 euro cover per head. In the bars the most premium spirits (single malts etc) are also chargeable as are the fancier wines in the restaurants. For us it not a big deal but given the premium nature (and price) of this hotel it seems a bit jarring and not something that say an Ikos resorts does (in a similar vein they also charge 90 euro to have a beach cabana which again isn't the case at an Ikos resort). I'm not trying to upsell you to an Ikos resort here but simply pointing out that in some areas it is not quite on par. The food is uniformly excellent. The staff are uniformly excellent being both charming and helpful. The TUI rep Michelle is a star (TUI if you are reading this then, if she wants one, how about giving her a year round UK contract as she certainly merits it). Daytimes tend to centre around the pool (which is a meandering affair that also has direct access for all the swim up rooms) or the beach. The sun bed to guest ratio is excellent and finding a bed shouldn't be a problem (we did notice some people sandbagging the best spots in the early morning though) but we simply used the sun beds on our swim up terrace. Given the day time temperatures the pool is quite warm but still cooler in it than out of it! In the evening there is generally a musically act at the outside stage and they were all excellent in our week there. Sina, who we also saw last year, is superb - both talented and charming in equal measure. There are also plenty of activities at the TUI Blue hotel next door which you can go to. In summary this is a top notch resort with facilities, staff and service to match. Just bear in mind it is a very chilled vibe (if you want something a bit more hectic then you can always pop next door to the TUI Blue for a while) which is exactly what we wanted.
- Ceylan (10/5): - Tolles Hotel, immer wieder gern.
- OwenT428 (10/5): Another Unforgettable Stay at The Residence – Truly the Jewel of Fethiye! - We’ve just returned from our second stay at The Residence in Fethiye and, honestly, it was just as magical as our first visit—if not more so! From the moment we arrived, the team went out of their way to make us feel special, and the memories we made will last a lifetime. We originally booked a penthouse suite (which is pure luxury in itself—spacious, beautifully designed, and with views to die for), but midway through our week, we experienced a minor hiccup with some noisy neighbours. The reception staff—warm, attentive, and always smiling—handled our request with absolute professionalism and genuine care. Not only did they find a solution, but they went above and beyond by upgrading us to one of the lakeside suites. To say it was stunning is an understatement! Waking up to serene pool views and relaxing in such a tranquil setting elevated our holiday to another level entirely. The staff are, quite simply, what make The Residence outstanding. Zeki and Namik at the Lakeside Suite and the Cuphea restaurant made every meal feel like a special occasion. Namik surprised us with a rose-petal adorned table at dinner—such a thoughtful gesture that really made our evening. Esra and Mercan at the pool bar were always on hand with a smile, remembering our favourite drinks and making sure we felt completely at home. Every single member of staff, from reception to housekeeping, radiated warmth and professionalism. Highlights from our stay: 1. Service that shines – From the sterling service in every restaurant and bar to the courteous, ever-helpful reception staff, everyone’s commitment to guest happiness is obvious. It’s the people here who make The Residence so much more than just a hotel. 2. The lagoon pool – I’ve travelled all over the world, and this lagoon pool is truly world-class. The beds are supremely comfortable, fresh towels are always available, and the level of service is second to none. It’s the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the sun. 3. Evening entertainment – We’ve come to expect fantastic entertainment at The Residence, and this trip did not disappoint! Every night was a new delight. 4. Incredible rooms – Whether it’s a penthouse or a lakeside suite, every room is beautifully appointed and immaculately kept. 5. Exceptional food – Dining at The Residence is always a highlight. Every meal, from breakfast to dinner, was delicious, beautifully presented, and offered with genuine hospitality. 6, The cats - The Turkish love their cats, and the cats and kittens that wonder the resort are super-friendly, and do not mind the occasional piece of ham/turkey thrown their way. This trip was all about relaxation for us—just seven nights of unwinding in paradise. On our first visit, we explored the region (the 12 Island Boat tour, Mt Babadağ paragliding—absolutely unmissable!—Saklikent Gorge, Tlos, and more), and we’ve returned since to Fethiye in 2024 for even more adventures (but that’s for another review!). If you’re looking for a place where you’ll be genuinely cared for, in surroundings that are luxurious yet welcoming, with some of the best service you’ll find anywhere, The Residence is it. Huge thanks to Zeki, Namik, Esra, Mercan, and the whole team for another incredible stay. We’re already planning our next visit! Room Tip: All rooms are fantastic, but if you can, treat yourself to a lakeside suite—you won’t regret it!
- Levent (10/5): - Yemek çok iyi temiz havuzlar güzel sadece deniz tarafı biraz eski kalmış iskelenin de yenilenmesi gerekiyor
- katecE2500JR (10/5): We will be back! - This was our second visit, the first in 2023. Most of our stay this time was in one of the Penthouses, but we ended our trip with a real treat — a few nights in one of the Lakeside Suites. What an experience! The suite was incredible, with a large balcony featuring a jacuzzi, private garden, and direct swim-up pool access. To make it even more indulgent, we had a dedicated butler who delivered food and drinks right to our sunbed — pure bliss. As always, the staff were exceptional, and the hotel’s setting is simply stunning. It was exactly the restful, relaxing holiday we needed. For those seeking a bit more adventure, there’s plenty on offer nearby — from boat trips to paragliding, which we enjoyed during our previous visit. Turkey, we absolutely love you and we will return.
- patt297 (10/5): Simply The Best - We stayed at Akra Fethiye The Residence and it was an absolute delight! The service, food, and atmosphere were all truly exceptional We arrived in the early hours of the morning and were greeted with a sparkling ice cold drink,check in was quick and easy and we were shown straight to our room. Rooms Clean spacious and very comfortable and have everything you need from a fridge stocked with drinks such as coke ,Fanta ,water , beer and chocolate to your very own mini bar. The bed was one off the most comfiest we ever slept in , our room was cleaned every day and was spotless, every evening there is a turndown service which was a lovely touch Grounds and Pools The grounds were beautifully kept with the gardener’s constantly working on them throughout the days . The pool was magnificent with life guards on duty everyday, you could always find a sun bed no matter what time of day , each sun bed had a cool box next to it containing sparkling water ,water and beer you also have waiter’s constantly coming around to check to see if you required anything The swim up bar is fantastic and we spent quite a bit of time here the bar staff are brilliant and great fun and also make the best drinks Food and Drinks This is were the hotel excel the food here is fantastic I am a fussy eater but every day I found something to eat and if it wasn’t on the menu just ask and they will cook it for you . we ate most nights at the repertory where each night there was a different theme we also tried the Chinese and Italian ala carte restaurants which were both fantastic you can also book the cuphea in the evenings which is a different menu from the day time and the food is wonderful Entertainment The entertainment was mainly located at the outside stage area next to the cuphea restaurant . There was live bands and tribute artist and they were all excellent I would recommend if you get the chance go and see Focus Acapella they were fantastic. We also liked having the option to visit neighbouring hotel for additional shows Beach The beach had fantastic views of Fethiye bay and mountains,the beach itself was a mix of sand and pebbles so i would recommend you a take pair of beach shoes all the Sun beds have QR codes to scan for drinks and there was a waiter constantly walking around checking if you wanted anything. We booked a beach cabana for my birthday and it was amazing ,our waiter Namik was brilliant from the moment we arrived until it was time to go our glasses were never empty he would bring different cocktails for us to try and he also brought me a birthday cake which was a lovely surprise , if you’re worried about booking a cabana don’t it was well worth the money Staff What can I say the staff here they are simply incredible and a credit to the hotel they all go an extra mile to provide you with outstanding service always happy and smiling and making sure you have fantastic holiday . There are a few people I specially need to thank here for making the holiday that bit more special Selman Onur and Memet From the pool bar these guys never stop all day and do a excellent job always smiling and happy always making sure people’s drinks were topped up and bringing all the different cocktails over for people to try Fatma , Seda and Murvet Our lovely friendly waitresses at the repertory and cuphea restaurant they just couldn’t do enough for you always going the extra mile making you feel truly welcome and making you feel like you were part of the family and ensuring you are having the best holiday Thank you to all the staff for making this holiday so special but an extra thank you to ones above for making it even better. We have done a lot off travelling in our time and I can truly say this is one of the best hotels we have stayed in the food was amazing and the staff are the best we have come across and will be definitely recommending it to our friends and family, we are also planning on returning ourselves again in the future
- Mohamad (10/5): - I believe this is the best place to stay when visiting Fethiye. The location is extremely convenient, everything was spotless, the restaurants were excellent, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming.
- I7901QWjoannew (10/5): Excellent first stay - Our first time here and I am sure it won’t be our last. Everything about this hotel is first class. The rooms are excellent, no need for an upgrade as standard rooms are a great size and with the most comfortable bed. The pool area is amazing and never feels busy, with plenty of sun beds at any time of the day. The girls serving at the pool bar do a great job and somehow manage to serve about 3 customers at once without forgetting anything! Esra especially was so friendly and always smiling. The staff everywhere are excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Mahomet Ali in Tao restaurant was also fantastic. The stand out for this hotel is the fabulous food and drink. We booked restaurants at the start of our trip so ate in all except Neoman and they were all amazing. The Repertory does not need bookings and we would have happily eaten there every day as it was so good. Nothing negative to say about this hotel, we would definitely return.
- tanyak339 (10/5): Absolutely Superb - We had heard good reviews from previous guests and the hotel certainly didn’t disappoint. Everything was first class, beautiful rooms, great food and excellent cocktails 😉 Lovely friendly staff, and so relaxing. This was our first visit but will definitely not be our last! We look forward to returning soon.
- EG3012 (10/5): Magical hotel - This was our 7th time at this hotel and standards are as high as ever. The staff go an extra mile to provide outstanding service with a smile. Special mention to our lovely breakfast staff in the repertory restaurant - Seda, Isik, Fatma and Mustafa - all so wonderful. The grounds and pool area are beautiful and immaculately maintained. Many guests like us have visited before and we will be definitely visiting again.
- jeannoa (10/5): Sheer Bliss! - This is our 3rd visit to The Residence, and it never disappoints. We always book a Swim-up room, which is a little more expensive, but it's worth it and more private and you have your own personal space. Lovely food, but unless you book early, you miss out on some of the restaurants. We're not big drinkers, but its nice to know they have your normal branded tipple. We normally book private transfers, but on our last visit, we went on the tour operators bus, which was absolutely fine and no hanging around. Our flight is normally early evening, so always book a late departure so we can stay in our room until we're ready to go! Just like to mention our TUI rep Michelle, she is absolutely lovely and very helpful if you have any issues
- Jenny (8/5): - The staff at this property were lovely. They made every effort to ensure that we were comfortable and our every need was met with a smile.
- terryandsue2015 (10/5): Amazing hotel. We will return again and again. - We first visited this hotel June 2024 and returned in June this year. We very rarely return to the same place, but we are already booked to return in September this year, and June and September next year. We book a swim-up room and cannot fault it. The mini bar in the room is the best we have ever had. The food is good with a different theme each night (but you can also order from the main menu if you don’t like the days theme) - and the restaurant and bar staff are excellent. We went to the Balkan for cocktails every evening, and must praise the barman Emrah - he makes the most amazing cocktails. They have a list of cocktails but you can order anything and he will make it for you with a smile. We did visit the hotel next door a couple of times for the entertainment - the George Michael tribute was very good. Overall the entertainment was good. The pool bar also offers a great range of cocktails and you are always served by pleasant attentive bar staff. We booked a cabana on the beach, and this is a lovely way to spend a day. We are very well travelled, but we have now decided that this is our holiday destination for the foreseeable future.
- V8144JRsarahl (10/5): Amazing hotel! - We have just returned from two fabulous weeks at this hotel, and we don't think we will find a better hotel! We had a superior double room in block 46, which overlooked the sea, which was lovely. The room was huge and had everything we needed, including a fully stocked mini bar, which was replenished every day. The pool area was lovely with a lazy river type set up snaking around the hotel. There were plenty of sun loungers, although some people did like to reserve particular spots. The pool bar staff never stop and do a great job of providing drinks all day. The food is amazing at the hotel, and it was lovely not having the usual buffet food you get at a lot of hotels. We enjoyed the Turkish breakfast at the Balkon with lovely views over the pool, which just has to be booked at reception. For lunch, we mostly went to Cuphea, which had a good selection. We did go next door a couple of times for lunch (Italian and Sunset). Although the food was good, we much preferred the calmer atmosphere of the Residence. We enjoyed the entertainment, especially Focus Acappella. Being there two weeks, it would have been good if the entertainment was on a two week cycle rather than one. We did two trips; an all-day boat trip with Captain Sugar, which was amazing, visiting 4 gorgeous bays. And we also visited Gocek on a speedboat for the Sunday market, which is organised by the Water Sports company on the beach. Our only slight complaint was the turndown service, which seemed to take place between 6pm and 8 pm, as we would miss it as we were getting ready for dinner. We feel a slightly later time would be better to capture more rooms. Overall, this is a very special hotel and all the staff provide an amazing service. We can't wait to come back!
- funtimesaway20 (10/5): Faultless - We have just returned from an amazing stay at The Residence. It is a peaceful Adults Only hotel with beautiful grounds and sea views. We had a Swim Up Superior Double Room (4602) which we loved especially as the weather most days was between 35-40 degrees. We were in block 46 which meant we had the sun from 9:30am until sunset. We spent a lot of time at the Swim Up Bar, they can make anything for you even if it is not on the menu! We loved a daiquiri and mudslide! The food was delicious, there are so many dining options within this hotel and the sister hotel next door which you will have full access too. The All Inclusive is 24hrs! As well as the food, the service and drinks were exceptional. All members of staff were happy and nothing was ever too much trouble. The entertainment was also the best we have ever had in an all inclusive hotel. We cannot fault this hotel in anyway and will hopefully return one day.
- Barryknapptrip (10/5): Amazing hotel - Absolutely can’t fault the hotel staff food and pool 10/10 that good we didn’t even book an additional restaurant the main one has different theme nights aswell as the main menu every day Pool Huge and relaxed loads of sun beds The cleanliness of the rooms and everything 10/10 The only problem is we are beach people and that’s was spoiled by the public beach next door with lots of children on it as well as the cold parts from the river outlet next to hotel Was quieter and warmer at the other end of the beach in the Sensatori family sister hotel next door 100% recommend for poll lovers you won’t be disappointed
- juliewR1634PM (10/5): Fantastic Staff & Hotel - Absolutely fantastic hotel & staff. Such a wonderful relaxing holiday. It is a stunning hotel where the food and staff are exceptional. All staff are friendly and fantastic but a special mention to Fatma, Duygu at the Cuphea Bar, Seda, Zeke, Duygu in Repertory, Murat and Selman who made our holiday very memorable. We can't wait to visit again.
- Ger65 (10/5): Fantastic hotel - Stayed in the Akra next door in June 2023 and loved it so decided to try The Residence. This hotel is one of the best if not the best we have ever stayed in and that includes the Maldives and Barbados. The service and the quality of food and drink is outstanding, The staff are so attentive and always greet you with a smile. The only 2 slight issues we have is firstly we felt there is a need to have access to the pool from the island at the swim up bar. Guests have to either go around the back of this or try pull yourself up on the wall which I saw a lot of people struggling to do. I also heard other guest comment on this too. An additional ladder at this location would be great. The other issue we had was on our last night Friday 18th of July we checked the main restaurant menu and it was Italian which we both love but when we were seated we were handed an Indian menu. There was only 3 main courses on this (2 of which were lamb) and as my partner does not eat lamb he had only one option. I know we could have got up and left but felt this would be rude so we said nothing. We checked again outside when leaving and the sign said Italian Cuisine Friday. Other than these 2 issues we have nothing but praise for this hotel. Some staff we would like to mention are Yusof and Ezgi Ceren in the lobby bar, Emrah for his amazing cocktails in the Balkan. Talha at the swim up bar and we cannot praise Esra highly enough who ran the swim up bar incredibly well. What a beautiful young woman. Always had a good morning greeting and a smile for everyone. In all our years travelling she is the best bar person we have ever met. She is an asset to this hotel. The speed and efficiency when she set up each morning was fascinating to watch, preparing mint leaves, fruit etc and all the time smiling. We missed her on her day off. If there is any system of rewarding staff she should be on top of the list. We will definitely return to this hotel.
- yasin (8/5): Tavisye edilebilir bir otel - İlk karşılama ve genel olarak personellerin tutumu çok sıcak, herkes yardımcı olmaya çalışıyor ve iyi niyetli. Yemekler gayet başarılı, ala carte restoranlardan Amber restorandan da memnun kaldık. 16 yaş üstü misafirler ve çocuklu misafirlere ayrı bölgeler sunulması çok memnun ediciydi. Bu tesisle ilgili tek olumsuz yan denizi. Deniz hep dalgalı ve bulanık. Önceliği deniz olan misafirler tekrar değerlendirmeli. Ayrıca şezlonglarda yastık olmaması da diğer dezavantajlı durum. Şezlonglarda karekod olması ve istediğimizi elektronik ortemdan söyleyebilmemiz çok iyi düşünülmüş. Bir diğer üzücü nokta residence ve tiu blue sensatori olarak otelin ikiye ayrılmış olması. Açıkçası ben adults only olan kısımda kalacağımı düşünerek rezervasyonumu yanlış bölgeye yaptırmış olduğumu otele gelince fark ettim. Bu konuda otelin iki ayrı kısmı olduğu, farklı rezervasyon yapılabildiği daha net bir şekilde belirtilmesi gerekirdi. Odalardaki şampuan, saç kremi ve sabun çok kalitesizdi mutlaka geliştirilmeli.
- jaynek424 (10/5): Exceptional Hotel and Amazing Staff - Was our fourth time going to this hotel and this time we treated ourselves to a Lake House Swim UP, we was not disappointed. We had all the great service and luxury the hotel has to offer plus butler service, and what a great butler we had, Zeke was truly exceptional and nothing was to much trouble. On the days he had off Namik and Hassan picked up on the great service too. I cannot recommend this hotel enough, whichever room type you book the hotel staff are amazing and do whatever they can to make your stay memorable, we definitely will be back!
- Emre (10/5): - Excellent hotel with responsive staff and service. Food was amazing. I enjoyed my stay in this hotel. We had a wonderful sea view family room with Fethiye Bay view. Everywhere was walkable and close by. Adult pools were great. I this property if great both for families and couples w/o kids.
- jaynes915 (10/5): Back in our Happy Place - Fourth time back and as good as ever! Aslihan Atil the hotels wonderful General Manager and her team certainly know how to make your holiday super special. This hotel is indeed a hidden paradise, from the luxurious accommodation, serene surroundings and exceptional staff, it is the perfect place for total chill and relaxation. One of the things we look for in a hotel is a good dining experience - there are so many dining options both in this hotel and its sister hotel next door - something for everyone! The main restaurant which doesn't require a reservation offers a great variety with a different themed A la carte table service menu available each day. We had many great meals, however we particularly enjoyed our meal at Neoman which offered a Fusion Casual Fine Dining menu. If you need a break from your sunbed look out for the Mixology class run by Mutlu, a fun cocktail making session held once a week. A huge thank you to all of the staff who really do make this a wonderful hotel, however we'd like to mention a few who helped make our holiday extra special:- Hakaan - the hotels brilliant Guest Relations Manager, Sercan, Sulyman, Necati, Isik, Emrah, Melike, Kaan, Samet, Namidiget, Selman, Mercan, Zeki, Kenan, Elvan, Fatma, Ramazan (Amber) and the lovely smily waitress from the lobby bar & Balkon Bar (forgot to make a note of her name)... Until next time thank you all for making our holiday so special
- katietagg (10/5): The best hotel ever! - . We booked this hotel two weeks before our arrival, and the only room available was the Lake House Suite (top floor). It was over our budget, but after reading the reviews, seeing the room, and learning about the butler service, we were completely sold — and I couldn’t be happier that we went for it! The entire experience was incredible and has honestly ruined all other all-inclusive resorts for us. The service, food, and drinks were exceptional. Every member of staff went above and beyond, especially the butler service in the Lake House. We had Hasan, who was amazing and truly made our holiday feel extra special — he alone made the extra cost more than worth it. We also booked Cabana 7 for my birthday, and the service there was outstanding. I can’t remember the name of the staff member looking after us, but he was incredibly attentive, constantly checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. He brought out a birthday cake and sparkling wine, and even surprised us with White Russian cocktails — which Hasan must have told him we liked! I would 100% recommend booking a cabana, especially if you’re not staying in the Lake House Suite — having that level of personal service really elevates the experience. The room itself was spacious and luxurious. The terrace with the jacuzzi bath was perfect for relaxing in the evenings with the sun shining in. The private sunbeds and direct access to the lagoon-style swim-up pool were unbelievable — we genuinely couldn’t have asked for more. The entertainment was fabulous, the performers were very talented. People said it was quite low-key, but it was just not your typical cringey holiday entertainment. All the positive reviews speak for themselves, but if you’re debating whether to book this hotel: just do it. You won’t regret it! We also received wonderful service from Esra at the pool bar and coffee shop — she always remembered our favorite drinks and greeted us with a smile. Samat at the Balkan restaurant was also fabulous.
- Elle_elle_709 (8/5): A lovely little resort - Booked this upon seeing the great reviews on TikTok and on here and thought we were in for pure luxury and high quality, which it mostly did deliver. We booked private transfers through DM Transfer having decided we didn’t want to do the TUI shuttle. The transfer took about 40 minutes and that was with stopping off for ice cream. When we arrived, there was no queue to check in and we were offered sparking wine. We were initially told the room wasn’t ready (we arrived around 2pm), but then they changed their mind and we were shown to our room by a member of staff and given a mini tour. The hotel is really small and intimate. You can go next door which is bigger and busier. But having been to the Mayia Exclusive last month, I can say The Residence has a much better vibe to it and the entertainment was high quality and got you up and on your feet. We had a swim up room, which was beautiful. Large, comfortable beds, great amenities. There were some wear and tear issues though. The plugs were loose in the walls so every time I pulled something out, I felt like I was going to electrocute myself. The whirlpool bath leaked. The magnifying mirror wouldn’t stay upright and kept tilting over. I loved the pillow spray included. In fact the whole hotel smelled so beautiful and was kept so clean. Top tip - get familiar with the do not disturb buttons by the door. The amount of times staff walked in on me in the room doing their checks or cleaning was laughable in the end. They knock but they can’t hear you reply if you’re in the room so they come in anyway. I do have to say, perhaps controversially, I found the food to be incredibly underwhelming here. Breakfast included a small buffet and a menu of options but nothing on the menu was outstanding. Lunch and dinner was made to order from a menu. Dinner was a theme each night and except the Indian night, none of the food packed flavour. I’m a huge foodie and I think the food let this hotel down. We tried Neomade in the main hotel (50 euro pp) and the food was ok but again it wasn’t amazing. There was not a single meal I ate that left me wanting more or to order it again. The hotel is also packed with smokers. I breathed in so much second hand smoke, it made sitting around the pool and watching the entertainment difficult as I have asthma. I do wish they’d section off areas for non smoking. My last concern is around a comment made by a server. My partner was visibly the only black man at the resort during our stay and the server kept calling him Tupac and laughing. He wasn’t calling anyone else any celebrity names but instead decided to single out someone already visibly different and made us feel really uncomfortable. We didn’t sit in his section again. With all that being said, the hotel was lovely and it did have touches of luxury but I don’t think it was fully worth the money.
- N7074RMjessicab (10/5): If you are thinking of booking, just do it! - Wow … where do I even start. This is our second time visiting the hotel and we were absolutely not disappointed. Everything from the welcome on arrival, amazing cocktails, delicious food, amazing customer service and everything more. Every single member of the team go absolutely above and beyond to ensure you have the best stay. They know what drink you want to order before you have even said it … I am gluten free and the main restaurant could not have done more to make sure I was able to enjoy nearly all the dishes! Hassan on the beach kabanas made our stay even better, we got engaged here and he served us during our candle lit dinner, wow he really went above and beyond, he made sure everyday I saw him after he would talk about the amazing memories from our engagement. Mercan on the pool bar and balcon bar is amazing at making cocktails, provides the BEST service! Selman who provides drink services round by the pool works above and beyond, constantly smiling making sure you’re having the best time. I could honestly write for hours about how brilliant this hotel is … if you’re thinking of booking just do it!!
- sarahwK5902UD (10/5): You won't want to leave! - Wow wow wow, it’s not just an all inclusive hotel it’s the experience too which is impossible to put into words. The staff are just wonderful they care about giving you the most relaxing time and think of what you need before you even think it. They go above and beyond and just can’t do enough for you! Totally get why so many guests we spoke to were there on repeat visits. The list is endless on stand out moments and staff attendance. Too many staff names to mention who we will miss and hope one day to meet again. Murat and the team he worked with were just lovely and the food out of this world. 4 of us stayed and one with a dairy allergy had perfect meals from start to finish. Honestly I could go on and on but think you get the picture. Treat yourself but beware you won’t find another holiday to top it!!
- kellysO1854TJ (10/5): The most amazing place on Earth - I usually wait until I return from a holiday to write a review but one day here was enough - this place is heaven on Earth. The bar staff are absolutely incredible, nothing is ever too much hassle and they are so kind and lovely. We are in the Penthouse Suite and it is stunning - they have thought of absolutely everything. Shampoo, conditioner, gel, cream, moisturiser, dental kits, sewing kits, Nespresso machine, hair dryer, straighteners, robes, slippers… the list goes on and on. The food is incredible - the A La Carte menus are so inclusive and there is everything here you could possibly need. The beach is stunning, the Cabanas are stunning. I cannot express enough how amazing this hotel is - this is 100% the first of many, MANY trips to The Residence!
- Constance (10/5): - This place was a 5 out of 5!! So good on all aspects of an all inclusive, except that prices in Turkey are through the roof!
- GSB4513 (10/5): The Lake House Swim up - PERFECTION! - We have just arrived home after our 7th visit to The Residence, we didn’t think it could get any better (previously stayed in deluxe double, penthouse etc….) but it did! WOW! As a surprise for my mum, following a very stressful 6-8 weeks due to her waiting on a health diagnosis, a weeks stay in the Lake House Swim Up (5301) was just in order and money well spent. From start to finish it was amazing! It was my mums birthday on the day we arrived the suite was decorated with balloons, cake and champagne! Our butler, Zeki, was absolutely fantastic, so helpful and thoughtful, he was on duty from 10am-6pm every day, and nothing was too much trouble. Hassan covered for the last two days and again the service was brilliant. Thank you both. Plus a massive thanks to the cleaning, bar replenishment, and the turn down teams, brilliant work! As previously stated in the reviews the mini bar/fridge/bathrooms are stocked with everything you could want or need and are replaced as and when required; spirits are replaced when emptied. The only thing we find missing are large mugs in the rooms (as we are big tea and coffee drinkers) but we just asked and two were delivered with milk on a silver platter! The management team also lead by example, so a very big shout out to, Aslihan, and the senior management team. Good to know that previous feedback has been taken on board and acted on this year. The new beach bar area (Caretta) on the Sensatori side is incredible, such a massive improvement. The vibe is amazing of an evening with the DJ, we saw Aslihan down there most evenings making sure it was all embedding in well. We felt however that during the day there’s not enough shade from the blazing sun to sit there and enjoy the surroundings, perhaps a few large parasols would do the trick. The QR codes down on the beach lounges are a great idea for the drinks service. Also noted the replacement decking around the pool area and walkways on the beach both sides, plus the brighter lighting on the main walkways and the small table lamps in the Cuphea area, so you can now see where you’re walking and your drinks, but they’re not so bright to affect the experience. Our BIGGEST THANKS goes to the day to day managers and the waiting on team from the Repertory to the Cuphea, the chefs and kitchen teams, the gardeners, and receptionists, who all go over and above to make sure your holiday is as perfect as it can be. Plus it’s good to catch up with everyone about how they and their families are doing, to name a few stand out staff Isk, Seda, Suleyman, Hassan, plus many more. In the Balkon, special mention to all the waiters who served us dinner and Turkish breakfast (sorry we didn’t catch your names), thanks for such special service and what an experience, it just gets better every time. Plus Emrah and team for the superb cocktails, my favourite is French 75, mums is the golden bubbles, but the tahini martini is delicious and genius! The restaurants on the Sensatori side are fantastic, great selection and service, both non-payable and payable but difficult to get booked into this time. The Italian restaurant is usually our favourite but sadly we didn’t enjoy the evening menu, we’ve been very lucky to stay many times each year on both sides of the hotel since 2017, but this was the first time ever we said we wouldn’t return for dinner due to the menu changes. Please don’t let us put anyone off, perhaps we just choose wrongly from the refreshed menu! Lunchtime was fantastic and the coffee and patisserie area are very good too. Entertainment - so much to do (if you want to) throughout the day and night you are spoiled for choice! The live fly in act we saw was Definitely Dolly, Danni’s performance was outstanding, in all the years we’ve never seen the boardwalk so full and she got everyone involved! We then had the privilege of seeing her perform as herself on the Cuphea, the following night, again brilliant! Focus Acapella are another outstanding group that must not be missed on Saturday evening in the Cuphea, plus Sina is on a number of venues around the hotels during the week, again he never disappoints you’ll really enjoy his performance. We also saw a number of other performers to name a few, the Cuban group, Mike Brew, Dan Adams, and Jonathan Speake who were all fantastic. Hairdressers and beauty salon (based over in Sensatori side) - we can’t recommend them enough. They don’t get enough coverage or clients from The Residence side, I’m guessing people don’t know where they are based. Exceptional service, good prices and treatments for everyone, from traditional Turkish shaves to new hairstyles. My mum has a wash and blow dry at least 3 times per holiday and being a retired hairdresser herself says it all. I also had my hair cut whilst there this time which is something I wouldn’t usually do, but what a fantastic cut. We also highly recommend all the beauty treatments, the best pedicure ever! Thanks again to all the team. Michelle our TUI rep, what can we say, it was so lovely to see again, THANK YOU for all your help/support and taking an interest. See you in September! Spa - I had two treatments and overall these were good with the therapist, Juneie (sorry about the spelling), but sadly there were some negatives which I’ve reported separately to Aslihan but mainly it feels rushed and the service is lacking in quality and personal touches compared with previous years. The main focus from the off is how you’re going to pay, you have to pay up front, rather than after your treatment or on check out as previous years, and it’s just feels like it’s sell sell sell! Pool incident - one afternoon the pool was closed as someone (not English) had vomited on the side and it had gone into the pool; fair enough it wasn’t the hotels fault but those of us staying in the Lake Houses were not informed quickly enough that the pool was closed and chemicals had been applied to the pool. We continued to be in the pool for over an hour after it had been completely closed, we only found out when we swam into to main pool area and were shouted at to get out and immediately shower! Communication needs to be improved when incidents like this occur especially to guests on the Lake House side as you can’t see or hear what’s going on in the main pool area! Again we reported the details and consequences to Michelle the TUI rep and Aslihan, who has assured me this is being looked into. Not wishing to end on a negative note, overall we can’t speak highly enough of the hotel concept and experience again was absolutely fabulous and taken up a notch to outstanding with regard to the Lake House. As a mother and daughter holidaying without our husbands we feel very safe here and even if we go out and about to the surrounding areas of Calis, Hisaranu, Fethiye, Olu Deniz, it’s like our second home. If you thinking of booking into this hotel on either side, just do it you will not be disappointed. Missing you all already and counting the weeks (11) to our next visit in September 2025! Thanks again for a wonderful holiday overall. Gaynor & Lynette xx
- Rambo3103 (10/5): We are on our last day due to go home.tomorrow morning after 14 nights. Staying in room 4502. This has been incredible a - We are on our last day due to go home.tomorrow morning after 14 nights. Staying in room 4502. This has been incredible and the first holiday we are not ready to come home from. It is everything and more. The swim up is fantastic, the service is beyond anything we have experienced and the food is out of this world. The room is spacious, clean and very comfortable. The bed is one of the comfiest beds we have ever slept in. The staff go above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied which makes this holiday extra special. It is chilled, friendly, calm, serene, beautiful and just worth every penny. We are not ready to leave tomorrow morning because we really have been treated extra special. Our swim up room has been fantastic and we will definitely be returning. Normally on holiday there are at least one little niggle, but not this one. Just couldn't find anything negative. It really has been the best 14 nights. Ive always wanted to go to the Maldives but truly since being here, I actually think i dont think i want to go when ive found heaven here. The cabana days were fantastic and the beach has a beautiful breeze and is comfortable and relaxing. Looking forward to coming back soon! Loyal customers x
- Fotoun (10/5): - Beautiful and clean. Buffet is open all the time and a lot of food options. Other restaurants are also open annd included for lunch but be informed for dinner u have to pay except the e buffet. ( you are allowed one free entrance)
- 217rohanb (10/5): Fantastic stay, would have been perfect but for… - We truly enjoyed our week long stay at this hotel. The amenities were brilliant, as were the staff, service, atmosphere and entertainment. We were very well looked after, our room was very clean and you can tell the staff enjoy working here as they would often go the extra mile to cater to the details that make such a holiday memorable- special thanks to Halil and Murat for making it happen! If I could give any constructive feedback it would be: FOOD - my partner and I are both vegan and the hotel has clearly put a lot of effort into curating entire vegan menus to make us feel included. However the excitement fell short sometimes because of the execution of the dish, we were sometimes given soggy veg, watered down soup or burgers with buns so tough you could barely bite into them. Pretty sure I was served a dish with dairy cheese in it at one point. The best food seemed to be the traditional Turkish food, the bread and fresh fruit and veg dishes were clearly crafted with love and a joy to eat. Some advice I would give is to taste the food yourself - if you wouldn’t want to eat it, why would we. We LOVE vegan interpretations of traditional meat dishes. The best food we ate was at a vegan restaurant in Fethiye - the Lahmacun made our visit so special - Aim to create dishes that even non vegans would eat, we don’t want to feel like second class or afterthought diners. These are just small points because such a positive overall experience dispelled any negative feelings quickly!
- Anoif (10/5): Lovely Holiday - Would we return? Yes I think so We have been lucky enough to travel to a many worthy 5* hotels worldwide. My friend recommended The Residence, knowing we like good food and services so we thought we would give it a go. We have been to Ikos hotels for the past couple of years so we were keen to try a different brand. The service was very good from restaurants, bars, room attendants. Lovely junior suite in block 4600, sea facing, very clean and sun on the balcony from around 11am. Mini bar was fully stocked with beers and soft drinks. When we checked in we asked if we could swap the whiskey, vodka & red wine, we were able to change the wine but not any of the spirits. They remained unopened when we left. Not sure if this is a tactic of the hotel, so guests leave the spirits unopened. Would be good to have a choice. Food/Wine - really good in most restaurants, some better than others. Booking the A La Carte restaurants was problematic, after visiting reception on 3 occasions we were not able to get in Tao. After telling us there was no availability in Amber, we took a call from our daughter (who was staying next door in Sensatori) saying Amber were expecting us. Not ideal as we had just returned from the pool. We booked Balkan for our last evening only to be told we didn’t have a booking. Not great and not sure why it hadn’t been booked. We ate in The Reperatory a few times, mostly really nice, apart from the French evening when my husband had to send his dish back. Waiters were apologetic and the restaurant manager spoke to us and asked for our room number. Not sure why as nothing was mentioned after this. Basilico was excellent, Cuphea at lunch was great. The Turkish breakfast at Balkan was amazing, well worth the 2hrs we spent there. Balkan has to be up there with some of the best cocktails we have experienced worldwide. Wine - red/white/rose Majestic Rose was ok but come on Residence, please give us a variety to match the price tag? I’m afraid the Prosecco was absolutely awful. Cocktails - beautiful, some exquisite, no watered down drinks, which was a bonus for us. Grounds/Pool Beautifully kept, serene I saw a post from someone that said no one puts towels on sun beds at 7am. My husband went out for a walk most mornings at 7am and he said there were a lot of sunbeds already reserved. We were still able to find somewhere at 10am. Some of the sunbeds need attention, a wheel came off one of our beds and the back rest fell off another. We did report them. The sunbeds although well used were still very comfortable. Entertainment Low key but really good, we would have liked to hear more music at Cuphea from 5/6pm. Was a lovely wind down to the day but not on every day. Focus Acapela was really very good in the evening. Staff - some wonderful staff and I apologise I didn’t catch more people’s names (didn’t have my glasses on!) Emrah & Samet in Balkan - you were a breath of fresh air, thankyou for looking after us, we hope to see you again. Beautiful Melike, you will go far, genuine and professional, thankyou. So a lovely holiday, a few minor issues but hopefully management will take note and maybe be more visible to guests during their stays.
- F7767FObeths (10/5): Exceptional holiday - I’m not one for writing reviews and this is the first hotel I’ve ever felt the need to write about. All I can say is wow. The service, grounds, food, entertainment… everything was absolutely fantastic. I have split my review into sections to make it easier for anyone thinking about booking this hotel. Rooms: Clean, spacious and has everything you need from your own mini bar of alcohol, fridge stocked with drinks such as coke, Fanta, beers and waters and you also have some snacks in the room (all included in your package). Each day the room was cleaned beautifully and the turn down service was such a lovely touch at the end of each evening. Great TV if you want to relax in the evening too. Pool and grounds: Stunning and so much space. The swim up bar was excellent and you could find free sun-beds at any point of the day. Of course you still get a few people that seem to wake up at 6am but isn’t a bother because you will always find some. The cooler boxes at each bed is also such a lovely touch but you do have lovely smiley waiters who come round and ask for your drinks orders through the day as well as bringing round fruit at certain points in the day. The cold towel that was brought round at 4:30pm ish was also the best thing ever in 36° heat! Service: I think this tops it for me personally. Absolutely everyone had a smile on their face and would go the extra mile for anything you needed. I cannot fault the service at all and the staff at this hotel are some of the loveliest people I have met. You can see they truly love their job and ensure that each guest have the most amazing stay. Cabana: We did a cabana day and it is definitely worth it whilst you are there. Such a relaxing atmosphere and nice change of scenery. The service is again outstanding and so nice to eat lunch in there listening to the waves. Super comfy and spacious, it was only 2 of us but believe you can have up to 5 people. Food: Such a massive part of a holiday, especially when it’s all inclusive (which also tends to have a bad reputation) The food was AMAZING. So well presented and so many options. I also loved that for lunch and dinner you ordered off a menu rather than having a buffet style each meal (although you can still have buffet style for breakfast or order of the breakfast menu) They also do food from 10pm - 7am so if you’re peckish in the night you can always grab something. (I recommend the spaghetti Bolognese!) Of course you have access to the sister hotel which isn’t adults only but we didn’t feel the need to at all. You have everything you need and more at the residence. The spa: Best 2 hours of my life. I got the sunny holidays package which included a Turkish bath (first one) and it was amazing. So relaxing and such a lovely start to our holiday. I also think the prices are really reasonable. The spa is also stunning and we used the steam room which was great. Shopping: There are a line of shops outside the hotel. If you want to go to the supermarket go to the first one you see as you walk down, not the one at the very end (this was so expensive). The first one has everything you need as well as a gift shop which is lovely if you want to pick up any souvenirs or if you’ve forgotten anything at home. Entertainment: So good !!! Really enjoyed each evening and would say it’s tailored more for adults however if you want anything a bit more lively such as dancers or magic shows you can always watch next door! We didn’t feel the need to as loved all the different singers each night who got us all singing along. My personal favourite was the focus acapella. If you need anything you can use the TUI Blue app and this has a list of the entertainment and what’s on each night as well as a message board if you have any questions. Food menus ext can also be found here. To sum up this was such a lovely and relaxing holiday for my partner and I. And after over hearing some peoples conversations, I think this is a hotel that many people love to return to. We usually like to stay in a hotel and then go out and about some days (which you can still do of course) but honestly didn’t feel the need to as this hotel was just exceptional. We had a private boat day which we organised on our own but that was it! And it was so lovely coming back to the hotel in the evening. If you’re thinking about booking - do it. You will have the most amazing time and be very well looked after. I have a feeling we will be back one day.
- Soopje77 (10/5): Excellent! - We went back after our stay last year, and again, the Residence delivered! We went back because of the beautiful luxurious spacious rooms ( we had a superior room), the gigantic pool, surrounded by lush nature, the outstanding a la carte food and, last but certainly not least, the service level. We have never encountered a better service, can't praise it enough. The staff is excellent, they try to cater to your every need, with a smile! Every detail is covered, the pillow menu, the cold towels in the pool, the bottle of wine delivered to the room. Flowers upon arrival because we were returning guests...I could go on....It's just too much. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxed, never crowded, no towels on deck chairs at 7 o clock. It feels informal, but, if you're looking for a rowdy all inclusive experience, this isn't for you. If you want a luxurious getaway and enjoy the finesse of Turkish cuisine and service, this is the place to be. Thank you every one at the Residence, for another great stay. We will be back!
- wendydE418ER (10/5): 5 STAR LUXURY !! - Another amazing stay at this fantastic Hotel. Just returned from our two week stay. and as usual immediately booked again for September. This hotel is exceptional and in my opinion cannot be beaten. A special mention to all the management team especially Ashialan, Mr Icut and Hakan who always lead by example and cascade their experience and train the staff to a very high standard. All staff seem happy to be there and want to make your stay extra special!! Worthy of special thanks to Zeki, Movit, Meleke, Onur, Gaye, Ezgi, Necati and of course Vazel. Lastly the waiter from The Neoman restaurant (unfortunately we didn't catch his name) he was amazing and his service was impeccable. This list could be endless really! Anything that I write will all be the same as many of the other 5 star reviews that are already written. But I can assure you that this hotel is worthy of all the fantastic reviews that it receives. If you are thinking of booking for the first time.....DO IT NOW as it gets booked up quickly and most guests are returning every year. Its a very special hotel that cannot be beaten. Its immaculate grounds amazing food and drinks the superb staff are second to none. It really is five star luxury at its finest. Try it and see for yourself but be prepared to book again before you leave.This will be our eighth stay with plenty more to come!!
- Chusse (10/5): Wow, this will take some beating ! - Stayed here in Oct 2024 & were absolutely blown away from the minute we checked in . This was recommended to us & we can see why so many guests rebook when there. Such a special place. The food is amazing with a huge choice and every member of the team working there goes out of their way to make your stay welcome . Such a relaxing beautiful place we didn’t want to leave . We went to the sensatori next door for a meal in the Italian and drinks , it’s lovely to have the choice to also use the facilities there . If you’re thinking about it don’t ! Just book it ! We are looking forward to another stay soon .
- F3jky (10/5): Relaxing hotel - This is a lovely hotel perfect for couples. My second time here and a lot of people are returnees The cleanliness is amazing all over and attention to detail even steam cleaning the cushions at the cuphea bar All the staff are very pleasant and friendly and give special thanks to Namik at cuphea restaurant he is the nicest and most respectful member of staff and should be promoted Also Seda in the main restaurant was most attentive and lovely The rooms are very big and the bed is comfortable and pillows fantastic Would definitely return here
- linwa155 (10/5): Fabulous hotel and staff - Where do I start?! Our daughter and son-in-law highly recommended we booked The all-inclusive++++ Residence for our 20th wedding anniversary holiday, and I am soooo glad we took their advice. We booked a Penthouse room for 9 nights, flying with EasyJet from Edinburgh, and we splashed out and booked a private return transfer with DM Transfers from Dalaman airport. The transfer was perfect, and more like a limousine with chilled water, tv and wi-fi to enjoy. On arrival at The Residence, we were greeted and ushered to a personal check-in with chilled facial towels, champagne and chocolates, while our luggage was discreetly whisked away to our room for us. We were walked to our room, with the young lady explaining the bars and restaurants to us. Our room was absolutely perfect (we were in 4534) overlooking the immaculately maintained pools with views out to the sea. The penthouses have a private jacuzzi on the balcony along with a double rattan sunbed, table and 2 chairs with a huge rollable parasol which is invaluable in the heat of the day! Our room had a huge bed, balloons and pillow scent and a chilled bottle of Prosecco waiting for us along with a beautiful strawberry heart-shaped cake, as the hotel knew we were celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary while we were there. Apart from that amazing start, the room had its own lounge area with a jacuzzi bath, double sink vanity units, separate shower and toilet, separate dressing room and every single luxury you can imagine - Kraft paper-packaged bath hats, sewing kits, razor and shaving kits, loofah, toothbrushes, amazing scented hand wash and shower gels and body lotions, dressing gowns and slippers, yoga mats and beach bags, hair driers and hair straighteners, USB points and a UK plug point, iron & ironing board, and so much more. In the room you also had a bar area with 1/2 bottles of whisky, gin, vodka, waters and a bottle of wine, and a fully stocked fridge with water, beer, orange juice, ginger ale and milk, along with a kettle, Nespresso coffee machine and pods. All this is refreshed daily, so as you finish a bottle of anything, they will just replace it the next day free of charge. Every day the maid will come in and change the towels and re-make and change the bed, refreshing any toiletries you have used. Then you'll have a visit from the bar man re-stocking your drinks, and then later in the evening while you are out enjoying cocktails and evening meal, housekeeping will return and re-make the bed and do a turn-down service, put the ambient lights on and air conditioning if the room is too warm and close the curtains and re-stock the towels. The amazing staff in the hotel make you feel you are staying in a hotel where you are truly welcome, and you are! From the reception staff to the maids to the pool staff to the restaurant and cocktail staff - without exception they are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The food in the restaurants is delicious, and a la carte in every restaurant, so you can choose from the menu or ask for your own version of anything and it will be happily served. We ate a lot of the time during the day and evening down at Cuphea at the bottom of the pool area by the beach, with its cocktail and bar and open-air restaurant areas, which are right by the open-air stage area where nightly entertainment is fabulous with duos and groups. You also have the Balkon bar by reception which serves pre-dinner cocktails and you can book a sumptuous meal for breakfast or evening meal there. Emrah in the Balkon cocktail bar is just amazing, and some of the cocktails he creates are incredible works of art! We hired a Cabana on the beach looking out to sea with uninterrupted views on our anniversary day (90 euros for 10am - 6pm and we had Cabana no. 9), and you have waiter service for food, drinks, cocktails, beers, platters of fruit, etc. all day with orders done by their app - incredible! There's even a fridge in the corner of the Cabana! You honestly felt as though you were in the Caribbean! The Residence is right next door to the main Tui Blue Sensatori resort, with its array of tennis, children's pools, archery, slides, the Boardwalk entertainment arena, and you can use this huge resort freely as part of your stay at The Residence. It was really useful to be able to wander next door, and they have a range of a la carte restaurants such as the steak house on the beach, or the Asian a la carte which you can book. Guests on this side of the Sensatori cannot access The Residence however, and they have very polite staff at a discrete check post on the walkway to make sure this doesn't happen! Honestly, I could spend another hour telling you how good The Residence is, and why it needs to be on your list of places to go on holiday! From cocktails at the swim-up pool bar, to the Cabana on the beach, to the lounge area with its chilled cakes cabinet and delicious ice-cream, a la carte at every meal to its immaculate gardens surrounding the swimming pools, pristine sunbeds and parasols, fabulous staff and wonderful weather, this is the place to go! You will be totally spoilt and never want to go anywhere else!
