The hotel is about 20 minutes walk from the beach and so away from the extremely noisy entertainment in the evening at the hotels that line the beach. It was about 1/3rd empty so there were enough sunbeds for everyone and the pool is large and a nice temperature. A buffet breakfast is available from 9 to 11 each morning and is ok - fruit, cheese, olives, cooked meat, cereals, some hot food. Not a huge choice but enough. Staff very friendly and hard-working. Food and drinks are available all day long - you just have to ask. Floodlit tennis court is available, table tennis table as well (bring your own bats and balls if you're keen), excellent gym, indoor pool, sauna, steam room. Massages and body scrubs available (we paid €45 each for the full works) - spa is very clean and relaxing. Cooker, fridge, kettle, dish washer, washing machine, iron and board, cleaning equipment in room. Local area not great for shopping - best local supermarket is BIM but it doesn't have a huge choice so you might want to bring your own food e.g. no tinned food anywhere locally. Best local restaurant is the Q Beach Restaurant which is no longer linked top the hotel but is very good and if you eat/drink there you can negotiate free use of their sun loungers. Harmony Restaurant in next road along is ok - very friendly and polite staff. Dolmus into Side is from the Evrenseki terminus on way to Q Beach. 3.5 Lira per person to Side terminus. Best restaurant in Side is Ocakbasi.
