Trendy Perge Resort & Suites

Well words are not enough to describe the fantastic professional hospitality we received. Staff were always smiling, nice, kind and professional. They made our holiday perfect. It was a milestone birthday for me , so we spent 10 nights with our boys 22 and 15 , they also didn't want to leave they had a lovely time Staff that made our stay memorable are Ita - room service - awesome Songul in the restaurant- fantastic Atalay in restaurant and Yusuf - lovely and welcoming man and was always helpful I will come back to Trendy Lara and tell all my network to visit as well. Well done Trendy Lara for recruiting professionals

We have just returned from a fantastic 10-night stay at Trendy Lara, and I can honestly say it exceeded our expectations. We’re usually ready to go home by the end of a holiday, but this time we were genuinely gutted to be leaving. We’re already looking at booking again for next year, which is something we’ve never done before. First impressions couldn’t have been better. The hotel and grounds itself is stunning. Check-in was quick and hassle-free, and throughout our entire stay we didn’t come across a single member of staff who was rude or unhelpful. Not one. Everyone, from reception and bar staff to the waiters, housekeeping and cleaners was genuinely friendly, welcoming and worked really hard. We stayed in a family room with a limited sea view (room 1224) and couldn’t fault it. It was modern, spotless and had plenty of storage. Nice little touches with slippers/bathrobes etc. The mini bar was replenished daily with soft drinks, juice and beer, the air conditioning worked perfectly, housekeeping kept everything immaculate with daily fresh bedding and towels. The beds were comfortable. Despite being a busy hotel, our room/block was also nice and quiet. The whole hotel was absolutely spotless. There were constantly staff cleaning the restaurants, pool areas, toilets and communal spaces. WiFi is also excellent wherever you are (important when you have kids!) The food was really good, with plenty of choice at every meal time. We never struggled to find something we enjoyed. There was always a good selection of fresh meats, cheeses, pancakes, crêpes, fresh fruit, salad and plenty of other options. Like most all-inclusive hotels, the buffet became a little repetitive towards the end of our stay, but that’s to be expected and we certainly never went hungry. Even our 9-year-old was happily eating seafood etc most days! We also had absolutely no stomach issues/illnesses at all during our holiday, despite reading reviews beforehand mentioning sickness. It really freaked us out before we came but no issues at all and everyone we chatted to were the same. The main restaurant was busy no matter what time we went, but it never felt chaotic. We never waited for a seat etc. The waiting staff were clearly run off their feet, so getting drinks, extra napkins or additional cutlery could sometimes take a little longer than we’d have liked, and we often found ourselves having to ask for them. That said, they worked incredibly hard and were always friendly. As with any busy resort, you’re always going to get a few guests who lack basic manners, but it certainly didn’t spoil mealtimes and isn’t a reflection on the hotel itself. The snack bar quickly became one of our favourite places to eat. The chicken kebabs were amazing and the fresh waffles were a daily treat too. Despite reading comments before travelling saying there wasn’t much available between meals, that definitely wasn’t our experience. Dom Bistro meant there was always somewhere to grab food between the main restaurant/snack bar opening times. The only slight disappointment was that the ice cream is only available between 12.30pm and 5pm. We also dined at the Asian à la carte restaurant. The staff couldn’t have done more for us and the service was exceptional. The starters and desserts were absolutely fantastic, but unfortunately the main course was a little bland (no sauce/rice etc). We were disappointed that the à la carte restaurants aren’t included as part of the all-inclusive package as usually you’d get at least 1 during your stay. The drinks were excellent. The cocktails were freshly made, the milkshakes and iced coffees from the Lobby Bar became favourites of ours, and if there’s a cocktail you fancy that’s not on the menu, just ask. Hubby enjoys Bloody Marys, and they were more than happy to make them for him. If you prefer branded spirits, just ask for them. Most of our holiday was spent around the pools, which were fantastic. Our son absolutely loved the pools and water slides, and the heated pool was a lovely bonus even in July. One thing we really liked was never feeling pressured to get up early for sunbeds. There was no sunbed wars. Some days we didn’t head down until 11am or even midday and still managed to find beds together. The waiter on roller skates taking drink orders around the pool was also a great touch. We didn’t venture out of the hotel as there wasn’t anything around within walking distance but it didn’t bother us. We only visited the beach once as we’re more pool people, but the boat across was a lovely addition and something a little different. The beach itself was nice and not mobbed. The entertainment was very good overall. Some acts were a little cheesy, but others were Ozgenuinely excellent. We struggled to get decent seats as we weren’t crazy enough to head down hours before, but thoroughly enjoyed the shows. The Friday night bohemian party and Wednesday afternoon pool party were definite highlights and not to be missed. The only thing we felt was missing was a bit more for children in that middle age group. Our 9-year-old was a little too old for the kids’ club but still too young for the teenage activities. It would be great to see a football session specifically for younger children, as the daily games were mostly older kids. Luckily our son made friends and occupied himself mostly, but I think it would have been difficult if that wasn’t the case. There were a few minor things we didn’t love. Smoking is allowed around the pool areas rather than in designated smoking sections, which wasn’t ideal as non-smokers. There were also quite a few Oriental hornets around the pools looking for sugary drinks. They weren’t aggressive and we were never bothered by them, but they could be a little annoying and my son has a wasp fear. Don’t get me started on the onsite market - it’s INCREDIBLY expensive and the guy makes up the prices as he goes. I.e one day takis were 8€ then 10€ a couple of days later (mental, I know!) so be careful. He done this a few times to us. If you can, bring your own inflatables and sweets. A few tips for anyone visiting: we took a mixture of Turkish Lira and Euros. Although you’ll often hear that Lira is better, we found staff generally preferred Euros and it’s easier to workout. We also expected to tip far more than we actually did after reading other reviews. We left housekeeping a tip every few days as a thank you because they did a fantastic job, but we never felt under any pressure to tip constantly. I’d definitely recommend hiring a cabana for the day. We thought it was well worth the money (100€) and it also included a complimentary à la carte meal. We really enjoyed this day and staff were wonderful. Finally, don’t miss the spa. We had the Turkish bath at the start of the holiday followed by a full body massage, and it was one of the best experiences of our trip. Haggle the guys for a good price - you won’t be disappointed! If you’re doing Land of the legends use Antalyaa Excursions - we got the private transfer - cheaper overall and wonderful service. Highly recommend. Also look at ‘get your guide’ for excursions as I wouldn’t book through TUI. Bonus points for the on-site tattoo studio. I came home with a few new tattoos and couldn’t be happier with them! The guys are spot on. Clean, professional and excellent artists! Well done if you’ve got this far. Is Trendy Lara perfect? No. But did we have one of the best family holidays we’ve ever had? Absolutely. The fact we’re already looking at booking again for next year says everything. Don’t let negative reviews put you off & have a fantastic holiday!

All ala carte Restaurants was absoloutly fantastic, the Personal was friendly. The whole Hotel was very clean and especially gökhan was absolutly friendly and he cares a lot about us. We will stay every time here. Thanks for everything!!!!!

staff are excellent. Kemal is the goat as his service was legendary always serving us with a smile on his face. Also special shout out to Mehmet and Ramazan for the amazing food

From the moment we arrived at Trendy Lara until the day we left, we had an absolutely incredible holiday. This hotel truly deserves every one of its 5 stars and exceeded our expectations in almost every way. I want to start by mentioning the outstanding customer service. We did experience an issue with our mattress at the beginning of our stay, and although it took some persistence, once Arif, the Reception Manager, became involved, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. He listened to our concerns, genuinely cared about resolving the issue, and ensured we were moved to a room with a much more comfortable bed. His professionalism and commitment to guest satisfaction completely changed our experience, and we’re extremely grateful to him. A huge thank you also goes to Özlem, the Floor Supervisor, and Selma, our room attendant. They were absolutely wonderful throughout our stay. Our room was spotless every single day, always beautifully cleaned and refreshed. They constantly checked that we were comfortable and even left us a lovely handwritten note, which was such a thoughtful personal touch. Their kindness and attention to detail made us feel genuinely valued as guests. The food deserves a review of its own because it was simply outstanding. The main buffet offered an incredible variety every day, with fresh, high-quality food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Even if you happened to miss the buffet times, there was never a chance of going hungry. The hotel has so many food stations available throughout the day, including a delicious pizza corner, döner kebab station, Turkish specialties, burgers, snacks, desserts, fresh fruit, ice cream and so much more. No matter what time of day it was, there was always something freshly prepared to enjoy. The entertainment team worked tirelessly from morning until late at night. There was always something happening, whether it was pool games, live music, evening performances, shows or themed entertainment. The atmosphere throughout the resort was lively without ever feeling overwhelming, making it perfect whether you wanted a relaxing holiday or a more active one. The spa and wellness facilities were another highlight. The spa is beautiful, peaceful and immaculately maintained. There were so many activities available throughout the day, including yoga, Pilates and other fitness classes, giving guests plenty of opportunities to stay active while enjoying their holiday. We travelled as a couple and felt completely relaxed throughout our stay, but it was equally obvious how amazing this hotel is for families. There is so much for children to do that they could never be bored. The hotel has fantastic children’s facilities, dedicated kids’ entertainment, splash areas and activities all day long. One thing that really stood out was the attention given to families with young children, including a dedicated baby formula and toddler food preparation area. There is even a children’s buffet at meal times, making dining so much easier for families. The resort itself is stunning, exceptionally clean and beautifully maintained. Every member of staff we encountered worked incredibly hard while always remaining friendly and welcoming. You genuinely feel that every employee takes pride in making your holiday special. After our initial mattress issue was resolved, our holiday became everything we had hoped for and more. The way the hotel handled our concern showed that they genuinely care about guest satisfaction, and that made a lasting impression. We have stayed in many luxury resorts over the years, and Trendy Lara is certainly one of the best. Between the exceptional service, fantastic food, endless entertainment, beautiful facilities and wonderful staff, it is a hotel we would recommend without hesitation. Thank you to Arif, Özlem, Selma, and the entire Trendy Lara team for giving us such a memorable holiday. We are already looking forward to returning. Without hesitation, this is a true 5-star hotel. Highly recommended!

Kemal is fantastic. His service was number 1 . Keep him because is very hard to find a devoted person who is taking his job so seriously. He deserves a pay raise 😉😉😉well done Kemal.

We had a fantastic time at beach area today. Kemal went above and beyond to ensure we were hydrated and fed. His service was exceptional. Great facilities and we loved the waves

Hotel is spotless, there are always cleaners and gardeners around, cleaning and pruning. They are very polite and always say hello, or good morning. Food? I am a fussy eater and always found something to eat, there are plenty of options, although the main restaurant can get busy, some people didn't believe in queuing, so you would get barged out of way by someone, who wanted chips. The restaurant staff are very polite, and a BIG shout out to Halil what a legend. Absolutely amazing guy. He is a credit to the hotel. The main pool can get very busy, and you have waiters on skates coming round to check on your drinks situation. We upgraded to the garden family room, which had a shared private pool, and our own bar, and the staff there was absolutely amazing. It was well worth upgrading. Away from the hustle and bustle of the main . Oguzhan was very welcoming in the Lobby bar, such a warm and friendly person to speak to. Again a credit to the hotel. The evening entertainment was a bit hit and miss, but that didn't bother us. Yes there isn't much around the area, but there is a bus stop across the road, that cost 80p and that will take you into the main shopping area. If you want to see the waterfalls, or do water sports, then go and see Uncle Dennis and his lovely puppy Bella, he is located before you go to the beach. He will look after you. We definitely can't wait to come back to the trendy lara.

I had an excellent stay at this hotel. The service was outstanding, with professional and attentive staff available 24 hours a day. The hotel was exceptionally clean, well maintained, and every detail reflected a high standard of hospitality. I would especially like to thank Abdul kerim Eles and Fatima Atar for their kindness, professionalism, and dedication. They were always friendly, helpful, and made sure that every guest felt welcome and well taken care of. The hotel is also perfect for families. The children’s activities were well organized, fun, and engaging, making it a great place for kids to enjoy their time. The family-friendly atmosphere, excellent facilities, and outstanding service make this hotel an ideal choice for anyone traveling with children. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for exceptional service, outstanding cleanliness, and a comfortable, family-friendly experience.

Kemal trendy lara beach good service.Thank you everthing so much ..

We stayed here for 11 nights in June. I wanted to write a completely honest review to help other people who may choose to stay here.. Positive points - -The staff! They’re honestly so lovely and nothing was too much. - Hotel is spotless. It’s kept very well and is clean everywhere - Entertainment - this was good and some shows were really great for an all inclusive. The garden party was our personal favourite (i believe this is new to the hotel this year) -The buffet was actually very good. I know there is some people stating sickness from the food but we was a group of 12 and we was all fine. -It’s great for family’s. This hotel is very family based. I would not recommend if you are a couple! 99% of other guests were families. NEGATIVE POINTS - -The hotel rooms are dated. They need a little update / there was slight damages in our room such a broken plugs etc. -This hotel is a 3 different block hotel. We were in the 3rd block (family block) the main issue was the lift situation! They are running constantly with everyone else pressing the buttons during peek time (6pm / 7pm) we had to wait around 10 minutes as they was either on different floors or was completely full so we had to wait for other ones. This was super frustrating! - The kids pool - beds were broken / wooden floor was lifting around the pool. Our kids got multiple splinters in their feet from this as soon as they got out of the pool. This needs to be fixed and renewed. -Sunbed wars / sunbeds - the beds are crammed next to each other due to how many guests there is so there’s no space. You literally feel like sardines. It didn’t give luxury, it gives cheap. Also be prepared to get up early to get a good spot otherwise you won’t get beds. - Finally my biggest negative with this hotel… EVERYTHING IS AN EXTRA!! We have stayed in multiple 5 stars which includes all the Al la carte restaurants etc. This hotel DOES NOT! (This was partially our fault for not reading it before booking) but you expect a 5 star to have this free with your stay but every restaurant is an extra which then overflows the main buffet restaurant because no one hardly booked the restaurants as they were expensive which then overcrowded the main restaurant. Even the kids popcorn / sweet stand is charged. And the prices are silly. A bingo strip was £30!! And the prizes were shocking! Kids scooters was an extra, it just felt not luxury at all. I would highly recommend this hotel to include everything as an all inclusive if it wants to be a 5* hotel. OVERALL - Turkey is beautiful and has some lovely hotels. This wouldn’t be a hotel I would return to. I would put this hotel at a 4 star not a 5 star..

Amazing hotel with brilliant staff, food and entertainment. We have been on many holidays before and this was the best we have experienced for staff friendlieness. Every single staff member was so lovely especially yasar and gokhan who looked after us from start to finish. Would highly recommend this hotel.

We visited Trendy Lara as two young families with children, on our first trip to Turkey, and we had an absolutely amazing experience. The hotel is immaculately clean, and every member of staff is friendly, welcoming, and always willing to go above and beyond. They work incredibly hard every day to ensure guests have a fantastic stay. A special mention goes to Yasar, who was truly outstanding and made our holiday even more memorable. The entertainment throughout the day and evening was brilliant. The staff put so much effort into keeping everyone engaged, and our children were never bored. There was always something fun for them to do. The food was exceptional. We mainly ate in the buffet restaurant, which offered a huge variety of dishes, all of excellent quality and beautifully presented. We would also like to thank Gokhan from Guest Relations, who was so friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. This has been one of the best family holidays we have ever had and one we will never forget. We will definitely be returning next year and would highly recommend Trendy Lara to anyone looking for a fantastic family holiday in Turkey.

This is our 15th visit to the same hotel. WHY. That's easy it really does provide everything we as a couple and as a family with my brother and his wife need. The rooms, food, drink, facilities staff and entertainment are excellent. The external acts this year have been amazing. Honestly if you want a busy or quiet holiday the hotel is of sufficient size to meet there needs of all. Special thanks to the lobby bar staff and the a new member of guest relation staff Gokhan. Highly recommended.

We stayed as a family of 4 (2 and 4 year old) we had a lovely 12 night stay after the UK Easter break Positives * Brilliant service from staff * lovely well kept grounds * Amazing food options for every eater * Branded drinks as standard * Lovely large rooms * Exceptional value for money * Bus stop just outside the hotel to nip into town Cons: * They have an abundance of pools but all of them were freezing and apparently they are like this all year round. There is one ‘heated’ pool, although they don’t update the temperature daily, just the ph levels on the signs and it was colder than stated. This is the only pool you will find people in * Great splash park but you can’t let the children in as they would likely get hypothermia. * Evening entertainment for kids and adults was awful Would 100% return if they had pools people could go in.
