Montana Pine Resort - All Inclusive

The hotel is about 1hr 30 from the airport, so the transfer is fairly long. The beach and town are only short taxi rides away, though it’s not ideal if you want to walk straight out from the hotel. We went in the second week of September, when there were practically no children staying. We’d still highly recommend it, and loads of guests had visited more than once. We’d also recommend paragliding from the nearby mountain. It’s around £90 for everything, including transfers and equipment. It was a great quiet getaway. There was always an easy to find pool bed, even later in the day, and plenty of shade when needed. The pools were excellent. Lunch and dinner had lots of variety; breakfast had less choice, but was tasty. The staff were great and polite, and the people running daytime sports and evening entertainment were fun. That included karaoke, dance acts, bands, and quiz night. There’s one pool table and one table tennis table. We’d probably suggest adding another pool table in reception. Our room was cleaned daily and had a great view, though getting to the rooms at the top end means a steep walk. The spa treatments were fantastic and really good value.

We’ll definitely return to Montana Pine. There’s a free bus between the hotel and Oludeniz. The room was fine, though a bit dark, and our balcony faced another accommodation block. We were in block 1200. The bathroom was fairly big and functional, with a nice shower and a hairdryer. The room also had a safe and tea and coffee facilities. My wife and I stayed for two weeks, our first holiday in Turkey, after a friend of hers recommended the hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The grounds are stunning, tucked into pine trees on a hillside, so the paths are fairly steep. There’s a sun terrace where you can watch the sunset over the hills. Staff were really friendly, food was good with a fair choice for most tastes, and there are three pools. We mostly used the quieter one on the upper level. The entertainment was pretty good, and on nights with poor weather they sometimes moved the show into the lobby.

The entertainment was good, and the band played twice. They were really good. We had a good holiday overall, though the place could do with a revamp. The pools were nice and there was never any trouble getting a bed. Food was good, even if it got repetitive. If you can’t find anything to eat, that says more about you than the choice. The critters shrieking was something we hadn’t heard in Turkey before.

You can have a full day here without leaving the resort. There’s food available all day, pools to relax by, bars for a drink, activities during the day, and entertainment at night. Our favourite part was the live bands. If you want a peaceful, relaxing holiday with amazing views, this is the place.
