Limak Lara Deluxe Hotel & Resort

Third time visiting this hotel. Previous 2 times was faultless. Sadly, this time was a disaster. Dirty pools, film floating on water, pool area dirty and everything sticky. Snack bar staff rude and dismissive - previously was able to help yourself to a selection of food. Now its the same minimal choice every day - shoved on a plate by the rudest staff ever. No smiles, nothing. Rooms are falling apart so is the furniture. We had a room for 4 people and another room for 3 people. Yet everything is only replenished for 2. Ridiculous. Everyday was having to call reception for extra towels, drinks in minibar etc. Never once was left any mugs... so couldn't even have a coffee in the early morning. Animation team are faultless though and they really try - my kids loved them.... they try exceptionally hard and are a credit to this hotel - special mention to BARLAKI - my daughter DOLLIE adored him!!! Shame can't say the same about other staff, especially all waiters and waitresses at all the bars. Soooo rude. Not asking for a conversation, as their English is limited but a smile would do. Such a shame and extreme dissapointment especially for all the money we paid. After this experience this year, we definatly WONT be returning next year as planned. Dining room is complete cioas and u struggle to find a table unless u visit after 9pm by which case your left with all the 'crap' food. Absolute shambles.

Decent hotel, but not the best. Kids loved the slides and beach . Food was terrible. No shacks like other Lara beach hotels . Entertainment was ok but not great for brits as most music was Turkish which is understandable, but would have been nice for the kids to know some songs at the parties. Overall decent hotel but we wouldn’t return

Our vacation at this hotel was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed by the warm and professional staff, who made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The food exceeded our expectations. There was an impressive variety of dishes every day, all freshly prepared and beautifully presented. The restaurants offered something for every taste, and the service was always attentive and friendly. We also really enjoyed spending time at the bars. The selection of drinks and cocktails was excellent, and the bartenders were always smiling, helpful, and happy to prepare anything we asked for. The entertainment team deserves special recognition. Their evening shows, themed events, and parties were well organized and full of energy, making every night exciting and memorable. Our children had an amazing time at the Mini Club. The staff were kind, patient, and creative, organizing fun games and activities that kept the kids happy throughout our stay. Another highlight was the live music in the evenings. It created a relaxing and elegant atmosphere, and the talented musicians made every performance enjoyable. We would like to thank the entire hotel team for their outstanding hospitality and dedication. This holiday was a wonderful experience, and we look forward to returning in the future. We would gladly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a perfect vacation.

Our stay at this hotel was very disappointing, mainly because of the poor customer service and lack of flexibility. Before our arrival, it was almost impossible to get any assistance. We sent WhatsApp messages and other inquiries to clarify a few things before check-in, but received no response. One of the biggest frustrations was the pricing. We booked well in advance, only to see the room rates drop significantly closer to our travel date. We ended up paying around £400 (€300+) more than guests booking just a couple of days before arrival. When we politely asked if they could adjust the price or offer a room upgrade as a goodwill gesture, we were simply told that their pricing works “like airline tickets” and that nothing could be done. Communication was another issue. There were very few staff members who spoke English, and on several occasions, when local staff didn’t understand our questions, they simply walked away instead of trying to help. I was also surprised that this is the first hotel I’ve stayed at that does not provide an iron or ironing board in the room. We were told it was a safety hazard and that if we wanted our clothes ironed, we had to use the laundry service at a cost of €4 per item. This felt like an unnecessary way to charge guests for a basic amenity. The dining experience was inconsistent as well. On multiple occasions, the restaurant ran out of noodle sauce and simply served plain boiled noodles instead, without offering a suitable alternative. Another misleading point is the babysitting service. The hotel advertises that babysitting is available, but only after arrival do you find out it is limited to children aged 4 years and older. This important restriction is not clearly mentioned on the website. What disappointed us the most was the lack of care from the staff. My child suffered an injury during our stay, and when I asked reception for some ice to help reduce the swelling, they were unable or unwilling to provide any assistance. It was a simple request during a stressful moment, and the lack of support was very disappointing. To make matters worse, room service also comes with an additional charge, making the overall experience feel poor value for money. Overall, this hotel fell far short of the level of hospitality we expected. Good hotels are not just about the facilities—they are about making guests feel welcomed, supported, and cared for. Unfortunately, that was not our experience, and we would not choose to stay here again.

This was my first time in Turkey, and my whole family really enjoyed our stay at Limak Lara. We had a fantastic holiday there. Yes, the hotel could do with some updates, but it did not affect our holiday at all. We stayed in a Family Room, which was nice, spacious and cleaned every day. The minibar was refilled daily with drinks and snacks. The food was delicious with plenty of choice. There were lots of bars around the hotel, drinking water was available everywhere, and the waiters on roller skates serving drinks by the pools were great. The hotel is huge and has everything you need for a great holiday. There are several pools, so everyone can find a spot that suits them. The beach is beautiful, large and sandy, and there is also a pier with sun loungers where you can relax and enjoy the sea views. We really enjoyed the entertainment team. They were friendly, energetic and made the hotel feel lively and fun every day. The pool activities and evening shows were great, and the Beach Party was definitely one of the highlights of our holiday. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and made some great family memories. Limak Lara is a fantastic choice for a family holiday, and we would happily recommend it to others.
