Alize Hotel Ölüdeniz - All inclusive

The staff always do their best for you and are friendly. There's plenty included with the all inclusive, even though the drinks are local versions, and lots of salads are available. I've been here a few times and keep coming back because the rooms are consistently very clean and there's a range of food at every meal. Even on fish night, when I don't eat fish, I found alternatives. Would I return? Yes, 100%.

I've been coming to this particular hotel for 17 years. Ramazan, the bellboy as he calls himself, is the most helpful member of staff. He can arrange just about anything, from a private airport transfer or boat trip to a local taxi for shopping in Fethiye. The food has unfortunately declined over the years, with limited daily choice. The barbecues are quite good, but again there's not much to choose from. In the last couple of years I've also noticed the sunbed towel warriors arriving. All the loungers are gone by 9am. If you want an all inclusive with a clean room, friendly and helpful staff, and walking distance to the main strip, this could suit you. But if you're after lots of food and drink variety, maybe it isn't the right hotel. That's just my opinion.

The hotel is neat and clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful. I think almost all rooms look over the pool, though the balconies are tiny. Waiters clear tables so quickly they sometimes take them before you've finished your last mouthful. Food choices vary, but it isn't always very hot. All inclusive drinks are local only. You're near the main shopping strip, and it's a 6-7 minute walk to the beach. There's also a beach club with free loungers.

The food was tasty, with plenty of choice and fresh ingredients. Staff kept checking and topping things up, so nothing ran out. Most of it was Turkish style, with different international themes too, including Mexican and Italian evenings. My only food wish would be to see more baklava. The all inclusive drinks included local spirits, beer, one local wine brand and soft drinks. The staff didn't seem trained to make cocktails. We stayed in mid October and had a great time. The room was spacious and had everything we needed, though the shower could use a few little touches. Sound carries very easily between rooms. Staff and management were brilliant, always smiling and helpful, and they sorted any request straight away. Some restaurant staff looked new and unsure of what they were doing, but a little training and organisation could help.
