Eftalia Ocean Hotel

Alicia Matthews

Honestly after reading the reviews on the hotel I was a little worried coming to the hotel. Me and my partner have come here for a week holiday and we can not doubt it one tiny bit! We love it here, we are all inclusive and there is so much many options available with food, drink and activities. The cocktails you do have to pay for and you definitely get more than what you pay for. Obviously people who have stayed here will have different opinions and experiences at this hotel but for us it was amazing! I will say, for people who want to explore the country and go on days out I would recommend staying in the likes of side, marmaris, Antalya, we have been on a boat trip during our stay and we booked through the get my guide app/website and that day out was beautiful, very good tour guide who spoke good English and had transport included to and from the hotel. 5 star from us!

Please don’t believe any bad reviews in FB and google. I came with my family. It was a great experience, rooms clean , foods unlimited have something to eat , to be honest we can’t eat the same food every day! , even kids get bored, but you get something eat , 24 hrs food services, lovely water parks , I saw some bad review with pictures saying Hotel is bad not clean it’s not true , don’t trust any bad reviews, until I come after reading all the reviews I was so stressed, coming with family , but I am so happy my family is happy , and all the foods Halal , stuff so helpful. There is no screaming sound .. even if there it’s kids family hotel . Kids are happy they are in vacation.. who even needs quiet environment ,please don’t come !!! No music sounds! ..

Hi just returned from eftalia ocean and unfortunately all the bad reviews are right. Where to start the walls in rooms are very thin and you hear everything in corridor or next door. You hear water flushing all the time from other rooms in the bathroom. No included mocktails part of all inclusive apart from a cheap mix of pineapple and cheery drink ( no virgin mojitos or non alcoholic pina colada without paying obscene amounts ) . Alot of upselling drinks €20 all around the pool. Food does get abit monotonous. If it wasn’t for the cleaners and staff this hotel would be empty.

I went to this beautiful hotel for a few days last week as I didn't want to be in work for my birthday. The journey from Antalya airport was in a minibus driven by Fangio but we just were transferred from the airport to the hotel. Reception at the main block is on the right when you come through the door. Fabulous staff make check-in smooth & the lifts take you up to beautiful curved corridors & rooms. I had a 1st floor sea view room with a balcony which was nice. I was quite close to the pool bar area though. The curtains didn't cover the window completely which was slightly odd. I had a triple room which consisted of a double & a single bed. A small wooden sofa which I moved to easier watch the TV. 4 lifts means you don't wait too long & the evening meal was still available despite my arriving quite late. Reception is on the ground floor with other features such as food outlets & the restaurant is on the lower ground floor which gives you access to the pool & water park areas. Spa gives you towels on a daily basis which is nice. Walking past the pool bar & then left gets you to a subway which takes you to the island area (mainly closed when I was there, so seasonal). Beach is clean with free sunbeds & cushions. A covered area at the back for more shaded resting. A wave break makes for a calm sea experience. Rocky seafloor but those are smooth. Good sea swimming possible. I had a plan to get into Alanya but there's no regular bus apart from a Dolmus. The transfer to Alanya might be too far from the airport so this place is well placed. I'd take my son here as he could eat well & he would enjoy the pools. Length swimming might be more practical at the maritim place next door. A fabulous place, a touch isolated though outside of excursions. Cupcake & drink provided on transfer to hotel which was nice.

One of the worst places I have ever been. Me , husband and children really wanted to go home after a couple of days. The jet 2 staff (2 guys) have a side business going with the reception staff of the hotel. They book things separately and split the money with the reception manager. They take advantage of people. I didn’t book my actually holiday with jet 2 but they all work together to try and persuade you and I fell for it. Took my money for an excursion and when I got to the excursion it was unpaid only booked for our name. The only thing they did was drop us off in the transfer and on the way back NO COLLECTION. I rang the hotel and they said catch a taxi (cost us £110 In English money) which I did and when I rang 3 more times after that whilst in the taxi I put it on speaker and asked the driver to translate and muted them. Thank you to the taxi driver for translating what he said “the jet 2 and reception manager, were laughing at us” I did some more digging and found out. The jet2 guys have a side business going with the reception staff of the hotel. They book things separately and split the money with the reception manager. The taxi man advised us to report to the hotel customer service manager and he was just useless. All he kept saying was go home and complain to jet 2 and he will deal with his reception manager. It’s overpriced hotel. They food all taste the same and it makes your stomach bad. the only thing decent was fruit. One night a male waiter was arguing with a women on holiday. All we heard was him shouting and her saying in English “wowwwww”. I went to see her after and asked if she was okay “ turns out he took her husband plate and he wasn’t finished with it so she asked for it back and he got embarrassed” I can go on and on. Eftali hotels are terrible. The staff are con artists. The pools were closed for a few days each time because disgusting people were pooing in the pool. What that hotel did to our family was horrible, let me include they were aware that my son is disabled but they still made us all suffer. Me and husband got into the worst arguement because of this holiday and that spoilt the mood more. when we returned from holiday we were relieved and we’ve decided to stay in the UK this coming year for our summer holiday despite going abroad every year. Eftalia hotel has traumatised me and I don’t trust foreign policies and laws anymore. grateful to be in the UK despite. God is good 👍
