Im going to keep this brief there are pros & cons to this hotel. We arrived at the start of October and stayed for 2 weeks with Jet2 so we was “all inclusive plus” or was ment to be. Pros Very clean hotel Food is pretty good always find something that fits your taste, most was pretty tasty for buffet. Staff are mostly friendly. Beds are very comfortable Cleaners are very good and attentive (if you tip) and make nice animals on beds Beers nice Entertainments ok Cons Spirits are very small measures, u have to order extra shots to add to drinks. You have to pay for half decent cocktails €10 Branded drinks pay extra Ice creams you have to pay for Very very busy hotel and only one main pool & one kids pool, which makes it packed around pools. Floor extremely slippy in pool areas Cracks in walls The balcony doors leak in heavy rain We did have a nice holiday and enjoyed ourselves, but personally we would not return to an Eftalia hotel as you just dont get the all inclusive package you pay for.

We had a really good stay at Eftalia Blue and came away pleasantly surprised, especially after reading some of the reviews in various Facebook groups before we went! The hotel and rooms The hotel itself is beautiful, and our two-bedroom apartment was really spacious. We found both the hotel and Eftalia Island to be very clean. Everywhere you looked, there were cleaners working hard, and the cleanliness really stood out throughout our stay. The cleaners, along with all the other staff we came into contact with, were really friendly. They seemed genuinely happy to be there, which makes such a difference and isn't always the case in hotels. Pools, beach and entertainment The facilities are great, with plenty of pools and slides at both the hotel and Eftalia Island. We had no problem finding a sunbed mid-morning, which was a bonus! Our favourite spot was the beach down by the children's splash park on the island. Mustafa was lovely and would play volleyball with the boys whenever he wasn't busy. The boys also enjoyed heading off to play football each afternoon. The shows we watched were fine, although we did leave the Mr Eftalia competition as it wasn't really our thing. Our only real downside with the facilities was that there isn't a huge amount to do when it rains, so we're glad we took playing cards and an iPad for movie time! Food and drinks The food was pretty good overall. I've been to a few all-inclusive hotels, and this wouldn't be my favourite for food, but there's no denying there's plenty of choice and the food is fresh and tasty. We certainly ate A LOT and are looking forward to getting back to normal now! We tried the Italian for our à la carte meal. The food was nice, but nothing particularly special. It would have been lovely to have a Turkish à la carte option, especially as we were holidaying in Turkey. The spirits and beer were fine, the hot drinks were great, and the wine was probably the best I've had at an all-inclusive! Unfortunately, the cocktails were a let-down. Overall We went with fairly low expectations after reading some of the reviews, but we were pleasantly surprised. We went away to relax, enjoy some family time and chill in the sun. Although we didn't get a full week of sunshine, we still had a lovely time. No hotel is perfect, and there were a few things that could have been better, but the cleanliness, friendly staff, spacious room and great pool facilities made for an enjoyable holiday. Would we return? Probably not, but that's only because we like to explore different places rather than revisit the same destination. We had a good holiday, and sometimes a holiday really is what you make it! 😊
