Yalihan Aspendos

On arrival the receptionist was waiting outside for us and took our luggage to the check in. We should have arrived around 1am but due the plane being delayed we only arrived at 5:30am. He said breakfast starts at 7:30am but if you are hungry we can get some food for you if you like. Which was very nice, but we wasn’t hungry we just needed sleep. Once checked in he wheeled our cases and took us to our room. The room was lovely!! Flat screen tv, the bed and pillows was very comfortable, mini bar, lots of storage and nice big mirror. In the bathroom there is a big walk in shower and there is also a handheld shower too, there was little bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body washes. Around the sink area there is a nice big mirror, there was also little packets of soap, earbuds and face pads. Under the sink was towels, beach towels and slippers. There was plenty of storage around and under the sink. The lighting was very good for doing make up too. We was on the ground floor so instead of a balcony we had a patio with a big sliding door and our own little garden, which we loved. The whole room was spotless aswell has the whole hotel. Each day our room would be cleaned and given fresh towels. The pool and pool bar was about a 10 second walk from our room and around 30 seconds to the beach. Around the pool there was plenty of individual sun loungers and a few beds. There is also toilets near the bar and restaurant instead of going to your room, they had automatic doors and flush, again they was immaculate. On the other side of the pool bar is where they have the entertainment at night with lots of seating. They have a good variation of food at meal times and you also have the option to sit inside or out looking over the beach. There is a snack bar that does cakes, hot and cold drinks. A lobby bar in the reception. And there is another restaurant that does Italian and sea food. And lady makes pastries outside. We went in the spa we chose the vip package, which included the sauna, a Turkish massage ( it was so good I fell asleep), we then lay on a bed and they covered us up with a blanket and gave us a glass of water. Then we had a hot stone massage and facial and it cost 2000 lira and it was from 6pm - 8pm. There is also a hairdressers, doctor, jewellery shop, watch shop, clothes shop and a shop that sell snacks, floats, snorkels, toiletries ect. The beach loads of sun loungers and have little ceramic plant pots next to them for rubbish, around every 15 mins one of the staff comes with a bag to put all the rubbish in, it feels very safe to leave your stuff while you go into the sea. There is also security walking around our part of the beach to make sure no public come on. They also keep the grass and flowers around the hotel very maintained. At night when everything is closed they wash all the paths down so everything is clean for the morning. The markets are just across the road there’s two ways of getting there. Outside of the hotel there is a

Oh what a amazing place. Location on nice beach. Food amazing. Surprisingly also food in snack bar was perfect. Especially typical turkish snacks - pide, etc. Great pool by coctail bar but infinity pool in superior room is great upgrade. Really recommend

Hotel is literally on the beach - the best sand beach in avsallar, so i you are a beach lover, dont even think about another hotel. The corner room offers plenty of space for family but if you have children over 7, i recommend the room with infinity pool just on the balcony, it has a benefit which makes the difference and you will 100% love it!

Champagne on arrival. Bags taken to room. Lovely welcome from staff Hali A. Clean new hotel and room overlooking pool, view of beach. Went for an VIP Turkish Bath & Massage on site to start our tan off. All incl. variety of foods from buffet. Drinks and Ice cream and water readily avail. Music at bars in evening. Bazaars opposite. Best pay in Lira for bargains and for tips.

The hotel has a beautiful environment. It has the most beautiful beach of all hotels nearby and a beautiful big garden. The staff was friendly. The pool is clean an nice. Unfortunately, the hotel is a bit old, especially the interior of the rooms is quite old. But everything is cleand. Also the interior of the dining room is quite old. They also have nice outside seats. For lunch, you can also go to the nice beach bar. Unfortunately there was no beach towel service. The evening shows wer good. There was animation, but the intrest was quite low. As the hotel was quite full, no late check out was possible.

We chose this hotel for our first trip to Türkiye and were delighted with the majority of aspects. Location: great, Avsallar town is within a walking distance - just use the nearest overpass, quite easy to find. Hotel territory: very green and well maintained, hotel beach is very close to the bar and snacks. I was surprised we always could find sunbeds by the sea and never by the pool - wasn't a problem for us though. Room: our was a pool-view, quite minimalistic but enough for sleeping/changing. I'd advise replacing the room entrance door for a more solid one, and removing above the door glass window. Food: fantastic choice, great vegetarian options. The night soup at 23.00 is a huge bonus. Alcohol: good beer & wine, most cocktails are ready mixes but great quality, you can also ask for a custom one. Entertainment: the evening animation was good in general, however quite random. Dancing shows and Mongolian circus were very great, Miss Hotel competition and Lotto were not the best, still okay. Day activities are basketball, volleyball and darts. There is a spa offering massages (good value) and various beauty procedures. Something else to note: on certain days there is a late evening disco nearby and the music can be very loud, although it stops considerably early (around 12 or 1 I think) it's important to mention. We were okay, however it can be a problem for some going to sleep at 22-23. Overall, the hotel left many positive feelings and most pros do cover cons. For a couple and friends going to Türkiye for the first time, I would recommend.
