XANADU RESORT

Zach is the best person iv ever met he really helped me with the archery and helped me get better day after day he is really polite and made my holiday much better

Super hotel and staff . Food great staff all outstanding. Whoever trains them is doing a great job. From first greeting to leaving. Nothing too much trouble. Staff that don’t just serve but talk and spend time. Can’t recommend this place enough. Only gripe showers a little bit weak but that’s being hyper critical. Loads of restaurants but the main one was that good and such a wide selection of dishes never ate anywhere else. Special mention to porters and lad who ran Irish bar. They even have Guinness

Good hotel, i wish to get back here more times, friendly atmosphere, best service! And BIG THANKS TO MR. Willy, the best animator for whole hotel!

So we just came back from a one week trip to Xanadu (4 adults and 2 kids < 12 yo) and this was our second time here. I just want to say that we had a great time and also, there are many things that should be changed/improved. The location is almost unchanged, perfectly maintained, great green areas, clean pools, lovely bars and sights, waterslides, etc. One thing disspointed us: the beds from the small „forest” can only be used during the picnic the hotel organizes once per week. This was hugely upseting, as those beds and that cool green area, was a great place to just lay down and hide from the sun – the beds are unusable at this time. We were actually waiting to get to that are more than anything. We booked bungalow rooms, as they are away from the crowd, the area surrounding them is wonderful and you can also be close to the Secret Bar and Secret Pool and also next to the football field, archery range, yoga and other activities. Unfortunately, the rooms are sooo outdated – from my understanding, these rooms haven’t been renovated for more than 10-12 years and they are degrading (toilet seat, bathtub window, doors - we asked for repairs, but nothing happened), the mold smell and humidity are very high. If you are sensitive to this, book main building rooms. Also, there are a lot of mosquitos (our daughter is allergic to their bites), even if the management said that there are no mosquitos. I think there are more mosquitos in the area we were staying, the one between the secret pool and the football field. We went to the medical office, to see if they have a calming cream or some sort of medicine to calm the swelling/itching, but I only found an assistant who didn’t speak English and said that if I want anything else, I should go into town, order from the town, or call the doctor but I will be charged extra. I mention that this is my 13-14th hotel in Turkey and it is the first time that I ever heard of something like this – to have a problem caused by something from the resort, but nobody to help (except if I pay). Besides this, most of the staff was great, at bars, pools, reception area, entertainment team and so on. Special shout out to the Egyptian godess Layla, who was always there to make you smile, one way or another, be it in daily sports or evening parties. Another mention is for Yunus, great guy, made boccia feel like an Olympic sport – good luck with your medical studies my friend 😊 Also,  I forgot his name, but I think it was something Mustafa and he called himself Hadji/Hagi as well (maybe because he heard we were Romanian) – our bartender from the pontoon, who always smiled and made you laugh and served you tripled drinks 😁 There was another thing I missed alot, but that is only related to my personal expectations: there was no football for adults! Kids played in the evening, but for me, it was dissapointing. Actually, some of the families there were requesting balls, including me, to just play by ourselves, nobody was organizing it - at some point there were no footballs at all. And please, make the ladies at the lobby bar and terrasse move faster and better understand orders. I don’t think we ever got an order right and on time there – either the order was wrong, either it never came, or was coming after half an hour. We usually went to the bar to order, it was faster. There was this girl, tall and dark-coloured, who was always quick and responsive, but she was not always there to help us out. The waterparks are fun, for all ages, I went to their kamikaze ride a few times, great experience. The food is great, any time of the day, anywhere you are – snacks, gozleme, main reustaurant...the diversity is enough. However, there are no theme nights as they used to be in the past – we only cought one, a Turkish night. Still, the food was delicious. You could also find icecreams everywhere, waffle house, pizza’s and also, in the Irish Bar, during evening and night football matches, you got treated to snacks and a big screen. Guinness beer would be a good touch for such a place. They had great daily and evening parties and shows, enough to exhaust you after a long day of activities. Oh, and the ceiling fell in the reception area! Nobody was hurt luckily...but that is new! I think it fell because of some flooding or infiltrations. Overall, we got what we came from, but were left somehow missing something, as the hotel is outdated in some areas, you can sense that they are tightening the belt (which is not a bad thing, in terms of food consumption at least). If I were to come back here, I would come for the small forest (with available big beds daily), for the staff and after the bungalows are refurbished.

Very pleasant location, the rooms are clean and the area is green. The staff is extremely friendly and are always willing to help. The entertainment programme is fun and there is a huge variety of activities!

We had a wonderful stay, and the staff truly made our holiday special. A special thank you to lifeguard Oguz, who was always attentive, professional, and friendly, making everyone feel safe and welcome by the beach pier. We also want to thank the bartenders Yusuf and Ismet. They were always smiling, hardworking, and made excellent drinks while creating a fun and welcoming atmosphere. Their kindness and great service made every visit to the bar enjoyable. Thank you all for your hospitality—we hope to see you again!

This is my second time staying at this hotel, and once again I am very impressed with the quality of service provided by all departments. Everyone does their job professionally and with great care. I would especially like to mention the lifeguard, Furkan. His attentiveness, professionalism, and dedication to guest safety truly stood out. While spending time on the beach, I felt completely safe knowing he was always alert and carefully monitoring the area. A big thank you to Furkan for his outstanding work and commitment. Team members like him make a real difference and contribute greatly to a wonderful holiday experience.

We recently stayed at the Xanadu hotel as a family of 5. My 3 kids are 16, 15 and 9. We have stayed in Belek/Lara several times at the Titanic Deluxe golf, Lara Barut, and a couple of others not worth mentioning. I would honestly say, given the other 2 were a lot more expensive, this was pound for pound the best hotel we’ve stayed at in Antalya. There was a bit of a mix up with the rooms, as we required 2 rooms that they had allocated on different floors, but management dealt with this very quickly and professionally and had us in the golf suite all together in no time. This was a much appreciated gesture. Throughout the week the hotel had several events on , first celebrating a Turkish holiday, then the hotels 26th birthday party. Both occasions were outstanding with pool parties, huge buffets, fireworks displays, pop up cocktail bars and an all round brilliant party atmosphere. There was so much going on for the kids, very fast and entertaining slides , and a great kids club and water park for smaller kids. At night the entertainment at the outdoor bar/stage was very good, as well as shows at the amphitheater. I was really impressed with the standard of the food, honestly the choice of food and desserts at the buffet is 10/10. Steaks & lamb chops at the outdoor grill, amazing fresh salads, and more sweet treats than you can imagine. The only negative I can say about the hotel for me was the à la cartes. We went to the French which we paid for, and although the food was ok, and the service was good, it’s set in a room off the main buffet and barely even passes as a restaurant. We got the free à la carte Italian, in a lovely setting down at the beach, but again the food was just ok. When I return here I wouldn’t bother spending €150 for an à la carte as it’s just not worth it when the buffet is so good. This the only thing that the Titanic and Lara Barut was a lot better, although even more expensive supplements there. All in all everyone loved this hotel and can’t recommend it highly enough. We will 100% be back here , possibly next summer as we have an Autumn trip to XO in Fethyie booked. Thank you Xanadu for a memorable holiday and we can’t wait to see you again.

Reluctantly agreed to a package holiday - had a very nice time relaxing next to the pool and mucking around with my son. Special nod to Kadir who took care of us.

Been visiting this resort for many years and it never fails to ensure I always have an have excellent holiday. Great facilities, beautiful gardens and beach area, plenty of places to eat with very good food and high standard of cleanliness throughout. One of the reasons for this resort being so good is their fabulous team of staff who do whatever it needs to provide such a high level of service in a courteous, friendly manner - too many to mention any names. The hotel birthday celebrations held on 1st June were wonderful. Well done everyone 👏🏻👏🏻
