Can Garden Beach Hotel

The hotel is perfectly located near Side's old town, and we recommend staying here. Staff were friendly, helpful, and always up for a conversation. Our room was clean and comfortable, with beds we slept well in. The facilities were excellent, including a clean pool and daily activities in the park. Breakfast and dinner were good quality too.

After dinner, it was about a 10-minute walk to the beautiful ancient city of Side, or we could head the other way by the sea to nearby restaurants and shops. The hotel beach was just a one-minute crossing away, with direct access to the sea. We spent 9 days at Can Garden Beach hotel and really enjoyed it. The bungalows sit among a well-kept garden with plenty of trees, including lime, pomelo, and orange, as well as bushes. The place felt clean and safe, and the staff were very friendly. From the main restaurant terrace you can watch the sunset over the sea while eating. There was good food and lots of choice. If you don't want a huge hotel, this place's location and concept are hard to beat. It feels more private and is a good spot to relax and recover from busy life back home. I'd stay there again if I came back to Side.

I liked how quiet the animation was. It ran every day except Sunday, but was just there if you felt like joining in 😁 Most guests were from Germany and not very young. If you want discos and parties every night, this probably isn't the hotel for you, but it's well suited to a quiet holiday. I found the chance to relax exactly what I needed, and I'd love to return next year. We stayed at Can Garden in July 2025, and it's the first hotel I've wanted to revisit. It's right in the ancient city, a 10-15 minute walk from the old town, with a couple of shops nearby and a long promenade for after-dinner strolls. The grounds are quite large and very green, with fruit trees, bushes, and flowers growing right by the porch of each little house. There are lots of cats and hedgehogs. Staff feed them in tucked-away spots, so the grounds stay clean. My favourite spot was the lounge bar, with quiet music, tables under the fruit trees, and round fountains.

There was always a free spot by the pool, which I loved. I hate the towel war for a good place, and there was lots of greenery and shade too. You don't need to bring towels, but bring or buy shampoo because the hotel doesn't provide enough. The doors between the hotel and beach close at midnight. The location is perfect, and I don't think you'll regret staying here. It's clean, the staff are super nice, especially with kids, and the buffet had different food every day. The days with coffee made me gain a few kilos 😂 The sandy beach was lovely. The wellness treatments were proper treatments, and the prices were very reasonable. I recommend this place.
