Nirvana Mediterranean Excellence

Our experience at the cabana was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was relaxing, stylish, and perfect for spending the day by the water. The cabana itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with plenty of shade and cozy seating. The service was attentive and friendly, making everything feel effortless and luxurious. It was the perfect place to unwind, enjoy good drinks, and spend quality time with friends and family. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and premium beach or poolside experience.

First of all i've been traviling to Turkey since 2010 for every year and this is place is one of the best among them. You should have breakfast in Fellini i love that. Sometimes it's hard to find a empty place in pool area you shouldn't be late. Animation team is the best. Especially one guy who name is Ekrem. I've never net such a multifaceted person in my life. Thank you for everything guys. See you next year.

My family and I used to prefer vacationing in Belek, but then we fell in love with the natural beauty of Kemer — and we’re so happy we found a hotel we actually want to return to. The main things we love are the value for money, the solid level of service, and the fact that it doesn’t cost a fortune. The creators really went all out to build not just a hotel, but a whole ecosystem — you step into it and truly feel like you’ve entered Nirvana. So I want to express my appreciation to everyone who came up with all these concepts and activities — it really sets this hotel apart. More details below: Travel period: early November 2025 After we’d already booked the trip, they told us the hotel would be closing for the winter and we’d be moved to Dolce Vita midway through our stay. On one hand, it was interesting to check out another hotel without having to book it separately. On the other hand, we didn’t get to try any of the à la carte restaurants at our original hotel, the Welldone meat restaurant closed early, and there were no evening shows. So we didn’t feel completely at ease with everything shutting down around us — though it was nice that there weren’t many people. Still, it felt like we missed out on the full experience. This year we’re going at the start of the season and hope everything will be fully operational, especially since the price is higher now. Either way, just be careful when booking a trip at the very end of the season. Transfer & check-in: We were picked up by a private transfer from Pegas Select — the drive took about 45 minutes. Early check-in wasn’t offered, and we only managed to get a room with a nice view on the third try. The key is finding a staff member who actually cares. You also get a personal assistant on WhatsApp. Room & accommodation: We stayed in a two-story bungalow between reception and the main restaurant, on the second floor with a pleasant view of a quiet garden. The room was large, spacious, and comfortable — not particularly designer, but practical. There’s a mosquito net, and a handy drying rack for wet clothes on the balcony. Bathroom cosmetics are L’Occitane (shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, bar soap). The minibar was restocked daily with drinks and snacks (chips, nuts, salted sticks, chocolate). Coffee and tea: really great that there’s a Nespresso machine (capsules refilled daily). Different types of tea, powdered creamer, and honey. Bathrobes are provided without having to ask, plus soft, high-quality slippers. The AC wasn’t working and we didn’t bother to sort it out because we were too lazy — my advice: check it as soon you check in. Grounds & atmosphere: The grounds are absolutely stunning — lawns, plants, pine trees. The area with single-story bungalows in the pine forest is especially impressive. And the view of the mountains is breathtaking. Activities & sports: There are free guided bike rides with an instructor three times a week at 9:00 AM. The route is easy and beautiful — to a village and toward the mountains, with a chance to swim. Incredibly scenic in the morning with the mountains in the background. I signed up but wasn’t added to the chat, though the butler helped sort it out. Important: wear clothes that cover your elbows and knees; helmets are provided. Paid bike rental is also available. You can rent a tennis court for free, rackets are provided. There’s a basketball court — we brought our own rackets and played badminton there. Table tennis is also free. Kayaks and SUP boards — same thing. Yoga zone: led by a professional instructor — there’s aerial yoga, plus Hatha yoga in the morning (8:00 AM) and at 3:00 PM — highly recommended. Next to the yoga zone is a cute Nespresso café with a sea view, where you can have coffee with Italian cookies. Food & drinks: There’s an unlimited Starbucks on site with a decent selection of drinks. But the hours are a bit awkward: 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM — wouldn't more people want coffee at 8:00 PM or 8:00 AM with breakfast? Maybe the management will reconsider the schedule. Ice cream is also unlimited — at breakfast, lunch, dinner, and in the snack zone. The hotel’s website says they make it in-house, and taste-wise I agree, but the artificial colors are a bit off-putting. Outdoor food station open 12:00–4:00 PM with shawarma, Mexican food, waffles with ice cream, breaded chicken (like Rostik’s), and incredible grilled prawns (marinated, you can have as many as you like, and at the end of the season the wait was max 15 minutes). Main restaurant — absolutely amazing! Breakfast/lunch/dinner: smoked salmon, lots of fruits and berries, desserts with fresh berries, fresh pastries, pasta tossed in a Parmesan wheel. At dinner, they often serve plated dishes in beautiful crockery — like risotto or breaded prawns. One time there was beef carpaccio. I had five plates because the portions are small and it’s just so good. Every dinner feels like a special event. Every day there’s grilled fish (steaks/fillets), various kebabs, beef steaks (entrecôte). At breakfast — about 5 types of fresh juices: carrot (you can add cream), apple, cucumber, detox, orange (available all day). They make poached eggs and yogurt bowls with fresh berries and chia seeds, in line with the hotel’s healthy lifestyle concept. Fruits: melons, watermelons, citrus, persimmon, and more — strawberries every day. Huge variety! Cheeses: wide selection, including blue cheese and goat cheese. Meat delicacies: basturma (real, beef), dry-cured bacon, fantastic roast beef. Russian cuisine appeared regularly: borscht, blinis, Olivier salad; rich beef broth and chicken soup. One time at breakfast there was burrata — the best I’ve ever had. Please make it more often! Once there were sushi rolls — tasty and decent. When the main restaurant closed on our last day, everyone had breakfast at “Fellini” — a 24-hour à la carte restaurant. I loved the salmon omelet and the divine granola with yogurt and fresh fruit. Patisserie open 10:00 AM–11:00 PM — and this is a whole separate love: handmade chocolates (white chocolate with pistachios, crispy chocolate, chocolate-covered dates with pistachios), desserts, and tea. They also make various coffees and have ice cream. Sitting on the terrace, looking at the pines and mountains, drinking Turkish tea with mint and lemon — unforgettable and so pleasant. Staff: Some employees seemed a bit uninterested, but most were very kind and attentive — they cleared every plate, brought Turkish tea with mint and lemon on their own, poured water, and were thoughtful and courteous. It always feels so nice. Special mention to the Indonesian staff — I lived in Bali and know how kind, responsive, and honest these people are — they create an incredibly warm atmosphere. More Balinese staff, please! Sea & beach: Comfortable gentle entry into the water, a bit of pebbles and stones. Plenty of sunbeds. NO TOWEL CARDS — super convenient. In November, the sea was still warm. À la carte restaurants: The rule is one free à la carte visit per stay. No one told us in advance that by the time we wanted to book, the restaurants would already be closed — so we missed out entirely. We were transferred to Nirvana Dolce Vita, where we barely managed to get into the Asian and Italian restaurants — and we really enjoyed them. Glad I asked management. Shopping: A minibus runs from the hotel to Kemer every 10–15 minutes. The ride takes about 25 minutes; costs around 70 lira per person. It stops right at the hotel (just wave to the driver). You can pay in dollars or euros. In Kemer, there’s LC Waikiki, English Home, and a Migros supermarket. About 15 minutes on foot from the hotel (closer to Beldibi) there’s a small Migros. Grounds: among the most beautiful. Plenty of activities, fantastic food. Price: 350,000 RUB for three adults from Moscow, flying Turkish Airlines there and Southwind back. Without paying extra for convenient flight times (to avoid losing the first and last days), it would have been cheaper. We booked the trip two weeks before departure. The hotel closed and we were moved to Dolce Vita on November 7th. It was an interesting experience. At Dolce Vita, there’s a yacht called Cosmo Moonlight that I’d love to sail on. The price for early 2026 season is nearly 300,000 RUB for two adults from Moscow for the most basic room — 7 nights / 8 days. Final verdict: We didn’t get to experience everything due to the end-of-season closure, but what we did see was enough to be seriously impressed: large green grounds, lots of free activities, fantastic food, good rooms, and a decent caliber of guests. As for the rest, I hope we’ll sort it out with guest services, because we really want to get the full experience from such a wonderful place.
