Excellent hotel lovely staff great facilities best food and drinks in icmeler

My stay at Hotel Sea Star Marmaris was nothing short of a dream. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe, comfortable, and well taken care of from the moment I arrived. The entire property feels like a peaceful paradise. It is situated in the absolute perfect location—nestled right on the quiet beachfront promenade, offering a serene escape while still being a lovely, short walk from the heart of İçmeler. One of the biggest highlights was the incredible, breathtaking view, alongside an equally impressive dining experience with a fantastic variety of fresh choices that changed daily. While the hospitality is outstanding across the board, the compassion of the staff is what truly makes this hotel exceptional. I want to give a heartfelt special thanks to these amazing individuals: * Mrs. Melis, who was incredibly kind, gave me a wonderful room and even made sure my bed was extra soft. Beyond her hotel duties, she is an absolute angel to the local cats. She actually saved a cat named Batman from FIP because she went completely out of her way to give him the intensive care he needed to survive. During my stay, Batman had a tubeworm infection. When I offered to donate money for him, Mrs. Melis initially refused out of pure modesty, but she finally accepted it when I proposed "adopting" Batman from afar. Thanks to this, we bought his medication to treat both worms and fleas enough for one year as well as special Royal Canin Kitten kibbles to help him get strong again. Mrs.Melis was so patient and appreciated my involvement in his care. In just a matter of days i saw him get stronger and happier, could not wish for more! * The beach security guard who came on shift at night and was just as incredibly attentive, making sure Batman received his proper care during the late hours. * Mehmet (the lifeguard), who went out of his way to ensure I always had a comfortable spot in the shade, while keeping the beach amazingly clean and tidy every single day. If you are looking for a beautiful, relaxing, adult-only getaway with top-tier safety, excellent food, and a staff with the biggest hearts you will ever find, this place is perfection. I had an unforgettable time and I will absolutely be back to visit them—and my sweet foster cat Batman!

Just got back from Seastar after our first stay. It’s the most beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean with friendly professional service from every single member of staff. They literally cannot do enough for you! Rooms larger than average and well thought out with an extra large double rainfall shower. Food tastes amazing, everything has flavour and is beautifully presented every time with a great deal of choice. Sun beds available at every hour of the day and a gorgeous jetty on their own section of the beach if you prefer the sea. I literally have not one complaint, everything was so perfect and relaxing throughout the whole holiday. Been over to Turkey countless times in the last ten years and have never managed to find the perfect hotel until now but this is it. Will definitely be back.

My husband and I returned to Seastar for our fourth visit on 22nd June to celebrate my 60th birthday and our 30th wedding anniversary. Melis very kindly arranged an upgrade to a full sea-view room, which was absolutely amazing. Waking up to such a beautiful view of the bay made our celebrations even more special, so thank you so much, Melis. ❤️ Every member of staff is incredibly friendly, helpful, and courteous. You truly have a fantastic team! A very special mention goes to Mehmet on the beach. He is such a kind, friendly, and genuinely lovely person, and he works tirelessly every single day. We would also like to say a huge thank you to Kemal and Gokberk at the pool bar, who always treated us with kindness and respect and made us feel so welcome. Our housekeeper, Nazlı, was wonderful. She cleaned our room perfectly every day and always stopped to say hello with a huge smile. After we left the hotel, my husband’s wallet had accidentally fallen under the bed. Nazlı found it, and the reception team tried to contact us, but unfortunately we had no Wi-Fi and couldn’t respond. Melis has very kindly arranged to keep the wallet safe for us until we return next year, and we are incredibly grateful to both of you for your honesty and kindness. ❤️ We will most definitely be returning next year. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the wonderful Seastar team. Thank you all so much for making every visit so memorable. 🥰

We have just returned from a wonderful two-week holiday this June, marking our third year staying at the Sea Star Hotel in Icmeler. Once again, it proved to be an outstanding choice, offering excellent value for money and a flawless experience from start to finish.The hotel has a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, making it the perfect place to unwind. This time, we were given a fantastic first-floor room with a wrap-around balcony that offered stunning sea views and directly overlooked the newly tiled pool and terrace. The hotel's location is perfect; it is very quiet at night, yet only a 5-minute walk from the hustle and bustle of Icmeler town centre. Plus, the beach is just a stone’s throw away. Our room was kept spotlessly clean throughout our stay, the food was excellent, and the overall experience was simply perfect.The staff here are exceptionally helpful and attentive. A special mention must go to Melis, the Front Office Manager, who was always incredibly cheerful and went completely out of her way to assist us. The reception staff were equally brilliant, always greeting us with warm smiles. Mustafa and his colleagues are a true credit to this hotel.The catering and bar teams cannot be faulted either. The quality of the food is outstanding, with an exceptional eye for detail. Whether at the pool bar or the 24-hour bar, the bartenders were incredibly quick to learn our favourite drinks and keep our glasses topped up. A special mention goes to Kemal at the pool bar—his dry wit and occasional stern look were absolutely brilliant and added so much character to our days.The waiting staff were also on top form and highly attentive. Special thanks to Recep and to Mohammed at the À la Carte restaurant, who always tried his absolute best to please us and even took the time to use a translation app on his phone to overcome the language barrier. They, along with all the other hard-working team members, are fantastic.Down on the beach, Mehmet the lifeguard was an absolute gem. I have never seen anyone work as hard or move as fast as he does. He was constantly darting around managing parasols, arranging sunbeds, and raking the beach and tide line to keep everything immaculate. He stands in stark contrast to one other lifeguard—whom was nicknamed "Mr TikTok"—who was unfortunately nearly always too busy on his phone rather than working.Barring that one exception, our stay was a perfect 10/10. Thank you, Sea Star, for another incredible holiday! As return guests, we highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Icmeler, and we cannot wait to come back.

My husband and I stayed here for two weeks from 1st June. I can honestly say that this is the best hotel we have stayed in. What makes it stand out? The staff. Every single one is so friendly, cheerful and efficient in whatever role they have. From the office, to reception, to the restaurant, to the bars, to housekeeping, to maintenance and to Mehmet on the beach I can’t speak highly enough of them all. They are such a credit to the hotel. Reception staff are very helpful, from arrival to leaving nothing was too much trouble. Our room was perfectly placed and we had a lovely side view of the bay. A chest of drawers would have made it perfect. The food was always very good, the grill outside always had lovely choices. The waiting staff were super efficient and friendly, always at hand without hovering. The snack bar was ideal if a late lunch was preferred. We also enjoyed the al a carte out by the pool. The coffee from the machines wasn’t great, so we tried the Turkish tea. So glad we did, it was so refreshing and I’d recommend giving it a try. The pool was lovely, nearly always sun loungers available. We preferred the beach though, again always sun loungers available and the added bonus of Mehmet, who works tirelessly to keep everything tidy. I’d recommend sea shoes or sandals as the sand gets very hot and it is a bit gritty by the edge. There is a ramp in to the sea if required. There is no entertainment at the hotel, for us this is a bonus. We like to have a game of cards or just a quiet drink in the evening. Icmeler has plenty of bars for entertainment if that’s what you’d like in the evening. We walked to Marmaris a couple of times and got the bus back. It was a level walk all the way. We also walked as far as we could in the other direction and there were some lovely views. A short walk up the hill at the front of the hotel led to a little café with views across the bay. So many guests come year after year and we can understand why. In our opinion an easy 5* review. Hopefully we will return one day too. Thank you Sea Star, you really are a star hotel!

2nd visit to the Sea Star hotel and fair to say it left us feeling a little underwhelmed. The location of the hotel is what is the big winner, although I feel the construction of the adjacent hotel has taken away some of this somewhat over shadowing the hotel through it's sheer size. What was a really quiet hotel now suffers from banging music until gone midnight and lights going on and off as staff/deliveries coming and going on that side of the hotel. During our stay there was a team doing promotional photos and videos including using a drone. This took priority and guests were at times stopped from going into certain areas, particularly the restaurant and at one time were moved from the pool whilst a crew member swam across it whilst being filmed by a drone during the heat of the day. The crew were also allowed to use prime dining tables to review/edit their work, again impacting guests. Forget the buffet food, which has limited choice and is repetitive, go straight outside to the BBQ area where chef Mustafa is proudly creating freshly cooked meals that are a delight, meats that melt in your mouth and flavours to treat your taste buds. The hotel staff are what can make or break a place and our experiences were mixed. As already mentioned Chef Mustafa is a top class chef and a real gentleman. Orhan looked after us at meal times having our chosen drinks ready for us immediately when he saw us arriving at our favoured table. At breakfast a really pleasant, polite young man always saw us arriving and had our coffee immediately served to our table. Unfortunately on their days off the service was opposite with us having to serve ourselves. We experienced the A la carte, where the food was really tasty, but found the main server a little too much, constantly fussing around and clearing away before you had chance to digest your food. It all seemed rushed to get the area cleared away. All the bar staff were excellent, Gurbeck in particular stood out. The reception staff and Murat who helped with our luggage are really pleasant and efficient. Zahide kept our room clean and well stocked with toiletries etc. On the Management side, we had varying degrees of interaction. On one hand Meliss was lovely and helped my disabled wife on more than one occasion arranging a wheelchair for my wife to use in the town. On the other we found Recep unfriendly, strolling around in a cocky manner and on one occasion he annoyingly moved my wife's crutch by rudely pushing it towards her with no explanation, I must mention Marco, the photographer who chatted to us, nightly, in a polite and friendly manner without pressurising us to purchase. Overall we had a enjoyable time but certain areas could be improved. Staff is the key

The hotel is fantastic. Lovely room , Amazing staff , very attentive. Great food . Plenty of choice . Just a lovely relaxing stay .

Our second time to Turkiye, first to Icmeler and the Sea Star. Adult only, all inclusive with a relaxing atmosphere. Outstanding location with views and a promenade along the beach with plenty of bars and shopping. From our arrival to departure all the staff were courteous, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We had a large bedroom serviced daily by Hacer, with a stocked mini bar. Like all areas of the hotel was spotlessly clean. Great service at the bars and in the restaurant, and the food was impeccable. Towels were available for the lovely pool area and private beach. Sunbeds were plentiful. After our departure my husband discovered he had left his Airpods in our room. I had a very prompt and helpful reply to my email from Melis informing me that they had been found and they could be returned with the aid of repeat guests (which seem to be many) returning to the UK. They dropped on our doorstep a few days later with their compliments. The kindness of strangers, we are so grateful. It was a cracking holiday. Will we return? In a heartbeat.

What can we say that hasn’t already been said! We were first timers at Sea Star and we had such a lovely, relaxing time. Hotel staff are ALL a credit to the hotel, nothing was too much trouble for them. Hotel is always spotlessly clean. Pool area immaculate and plenty of sun loungers. We didn’t spend any time on the private beach area, but other guests told us how clean it is kept and hotel staff don’t forget guests out there. Food was amazing, from breakfast, lunch, afternoon snacks, ice creams and dinner. Plenty of choice for everyone and very tasty! Bedroom was perfect and we had a wonderful view. All guests also very friendly. Made some great memories with great people! So good we have only been home for a day and have booked for next year and we can’t wait! Thank you Sea Star……

Sea Star hotel icmeler is an excellent location from reception to pool bar all good Bestie in dinngroom very nice and Muhammad in the pool bar excellent and friendly person.

I've just got back from a fabulous week's holiday at the Sea Star. I don't know where to start because every thing about the hotel was perfect. The food was lovely and plenty of it. The beach was kept spotless and the rest of the hotel was so clean. I'm sorry if I can't remember all the names but a big shout out to Şenay and Kaan on reception they are half English so communication was excellent and they were very friendly and helpful. Also Murat and Hanife I think I've spelt it correctly so helpful with the suitcases. I think it's Melis reception manager is a lovely person and you are all a credit to the hotel. I highly recommend especially if you want peace and quite as there is no entertainment and music blaring out. Thanks for a memorable holiday.

This is our second visit to Sea Star. The employees are amazing but Recep and Muammer. Made our holiday and my birthday I truly love this hotel, the food is amazing, the hotel and room is so clean and the environment of the guests is amazing, so friendly. We are coming back again next year and MASSIVE thank you. See you all very soon xx

Travelled with Jet2 to this fabulous hotel for adults only and all Inclusive plus. This is the best holiday that we have ever had, it was second to none. The staff were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for them. The rooms and cleanliness was superb. Such a lovely greeting when we arrived from Kaan on reception. The food was excellent, not one complaint. Beach towels, sun beds and umbrellas all suplied and as much water as you can drink. Fatma, the lovely waitress was excellent . So good that we are booking for next year. Thankyou all at Sea Star.

Well what can i add to all thegreat stuff thats been posted about this wonde4ful hotel? I'll start with the hotel itself, this place is simply excellent. The clenliness is to a par i have never seen in any hotel i have stayed in before. Everywhere you look there is cleaning going on from cleanung the floors to washing the windows att the front. The food is always very good (although i personally think there is a bit to much focus on fish). It is always well laid out and always tasty. Next the staff, i'll mention tge ones whose names i can remember if i miss anyone out then please forgive me. There is Mustafa at reception, this man goes above and beyond his duties to help each and every guest to feel more than welcome and deserves all the praise i can give. Next is Murat, this young man is an absoulute star and not let me do anything at all. The reason being is that my wife is disabled and has a mobility scooter and every time i even approached it it he would almost run to it! Then there is Melissa on the lobby bar in the mornings a credit to the hotel. There are quite afew hose ames i cannot recall one is the beverages manager, this man is a joy he looks grim but his sense of humour is great. A special shout outto Hacer our room cleaner a wonderful person and a very herd worker. As other reviews have mentioned there is no evening entertainment in this hotel i personally think it needs something even if its just background music that you can hear slightly. But all in all a great relaxing holiday and onre i will not soon forget. Thank you to each and every member of staff who made this holiday one we will not soon forget.
