Armas Labada Hotel

Freddie and Ibrahim were great company, and I’m thankful for their service 🙂 The massage was excellent, attentive, professional, and suited to what I needed. The masseur was kind and friendly from the start, and the calm setting made it easy to completely unwind. I left feeling refreshed. I had a wonderful time using the hotel’s massage services during my stay in Turkey, and would recommend it to anyone wanting to relax more on vacation.

The location is good, and both the pool and beach are nice, but this was the worst five-star hotel I’ve stayed in during my eight trips to Turkey, five of them at five-star hotels. We spent five nights and six days at Armas Labada hotel, and it didn’t feel worth five stars. The food was poor, with little choice and nothing tasty. The minibar had water and soft drinks, but after anything was used, nobody ever replenished it. Lots of the pool sunshades were broken, with covers full of holes or torn apart. After rain around 11 or 12 one day, our beach towels got soaked, so we returned them. When the weather cleared an hour later and we asked for replacements, they said we couldn’t have any until the next day. Even new beach towels weren’t available. The gym was ugly too.

The private beach is very close, and the balcony looks out to sea. Staff are kind and polite, the food variety is good, drinks are pretty ordinary, and the night program was good. The rooms and building are old, though, with old facilities and a small bathroom. Compared with other hotels, for example Orange County kemer, I think Orange County is better and more modern. If you want to spend less, this hotel is like a four-star place, no more. It was very clean.

The food was decent and had a good range of options, and the staff were welcoming and friendly. This isn’t ultra-luxury, but the comfortable rooms, lovely views, and laid-back atmosphere make it a great place to unwind. My room overlooked the ocean, and waking up to that view was a highlight. The resort is right on the beach, with a peaceful feel. I had a great stay and would definitely come back for another relaxing beach escape.
