Ramada Resort by Wyndham Side

Daniel Brenkac

We arrived at the Ramada Hotel in Side on March 16, 2025, as a group of eight young people. Overall, we rate our stay very positively – everything was fine and we took home beautiful memories. The food was rather average, but the selection was sufficient and there was always something good to choose from. A big advantage of the hotel is its location – close to the sea, with beautiful views and a pleasant atmosphere. The nearest larger city, Manavgat, is about 30 minutes away by car, which might be a disadvantage for some, but it is definitely worth visiting. The city is beautiful and has an excellent market where you can buy anything from A to Z. There are also quad bike and motorbike rentals near the hotel, as well as the option to go on safari tours with professional guides, which was a great experience. Thank you to the Ramada Hotel and the city of Manavgat for unforgettable memories – we definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a seaside holiday with the option of excursions.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but unfortunately this has been one of the most disappointing holiday experiences we’ve had. Our first impression at arrival was very poor. Despite requesting food after a long journey, the kitchen staff were already rushing to clear everything. They did not allow us enough time to eat properly—we were a group of 10, including 4 children—and had to leave with barely anything to eat. The room itself was acceptable, however: • Air conditioning was not working • Fridge was off • No water provided This was quite frustrating. The biggest surprise was the lack of free internet. We were shocked to be told that Wi-Fi is chargeable—and even more surprising, it is charged per device. This is not something expected at a resort. Food was average, but there was very little variety, especially between lunch and dinner. There were also frequent communication issues due to language barriers, and staff struggled to understand basic requests. The reception staff were particularly disappointing, showing very little hospitality or friendliness. One staff member (Oguz) was especially unhelpful and came across quite rude. On a positive note, the staff at the shop near the restaurant were extremely helpful and polite—far more welcoming than the main hotel team. Entertainment and activities were also quite limited, which added to the overall underwhelming experience. As someone who travels frequently, I can honestly say this has been one of the worst stays we’ve experienced, and it’s the first time I’ve felt the need to leave such negative feedback. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this resort.

Hi, first of all I would like to say a huge thankyou to Ramada for our stay. I had went with family! The service was exceptional. The constant cleaning, the food, the safety everything was perfection. Me and the family loved it ever so much. Only downside is possibly the location as it’s a little distant and away from everything however can’t complain because the hotel does have food, shops, drinks, spa, pool, everything you actually need. Thank you so much Ramada. A huge thank you to JULIE for the best massage ever. She was amazing down at the spa. The facility was clean! The massage the Hammam was 10/10. If I come back to Antalya will I ever re visit Ramada? Absolutely! why not! My week went so fast wish I could stay longer Can’t complain so thank you Ramada for your service and experience Mrs and mr khan xx

Avoid! Dreadful hotel with only one positive. The weather was nice & warm in late October during our stay. Awful food & drinks. No wonder they do all-inclusive as if you had to pay for this stuff then no one would bother. Every dish is cold, even the soup - and yes, no supper for us on arrival. Just late night soup at 11:30 p.m. Everything is fried in some kind of evil oil which makes the food taste horrible. I got food poisoning on day 2 and ate virtually nothing for the rest of the week. The bathroom was not cleaned after this episode! The EasyJet hotel director needs to be sacked for sending Brits to this place. Just horrible throughout ...

This is the first time I give a 1 star rating to any hotel. Stay away from this hotel at any cost!! I travel extensively worldwide and have stayed in many hotels and hotel brands over the past 30 years. I must say that Ramada Resort Side is probably my worst experience so far! I now deeply regret staying here, as it was such an unfortunate decision. ​The food hygiene is terrible, and stray cats are everywhere, including the restaurant and main lobby. There is a serious "fly" problem at the level of infestation. Flies are all over the food. Hotel cleanliness is a disgrace. But worst of all, the staff are extremely impolite. You often hear staff commenting, "This is not my hotel; if you do not like it, do not come back." This is a terrible comment that should never be made by any staff member involved in guest relations. ​My complaint to Guest Relations was also handled very lightly, which shows that this toxic culture is deeply ingrained in the hotel's management style. Internet is only available in the lobby which is extremely slow. No internet service in the rooms. You'd need to pay extra for a "fast" internet service...This was such a terrible experience, and I honestly hope I never experience such a bad stay again. It requires a complete mindset and management change to sort things out in this hotel. I have updated my rating to two stars following a visit from the guest relations manager this morning. She was very polite and accommodating. I expressed my concerns directly to her, and she said she would take the necessary actions to improve and address the complaints. This was a clear gesture of goodwill by the management, and I do hope that improvements are made during the following season. Until then, my rating stays at two stars.
