Trendy Lara

Very good food, the attention was very nice, specially Merve and Ibrahim from lobby bar. They took care of us all the time. The facility is lucky to have them. A big shout out for Gokhan from guest relations as well. He called to our room every day to ask if we need anything. Definitely come back.

First time in Trendy Lara and before I came there were alot if mixed reviews. I am not judgemental, I like to form my own opinion. The hotel is amazing. Very clean....and the entertainment staff especially ALi were amazing, ALi made our holiday extra special. He always made time to talk to us and include my oldest daugther who has additional needs, the entertainment team are what makes the holiday so special. They work long hard hours in the heat, always smiling. Thank you so much 💓

We have just returned from a 10 night stay at Trendy Lara and overall had a lovely holiday. We booked a standard sea view room for 2 adults and 2 children and had ample enough space with a lovely view. HK kept our room very clean throughout and the mini bar was topped up daily. The room was fairly quiet, but we found Fridays and Saturdays to be noisier with the live entertainment. We were placed in block A as we have young children and requested a quiet room, but we could still hear this. The grounds are vast, with plenty to explore, including 4 pools, 1 water park and a kids pool including slides. Sun loungers were aplenty, and we didn’t struggle to get one each day. We used the onsite kids club on many occasions and found staff to be fantastic with our children - so much so our children asked to return daily. They have a range of activities planned and the building we found to be safe and secure. Cleanliness around the resort could be improved. Glasses/bottles and general rubbish were found underneath loungers in the morning, from the previous day. Glasses left near the lifts were there for over 2 days. I would expect more for a 4 star hotel, let alone this hotel claiming to be 5 star. The food at the resort was good, but quite repeated. Dinner time was stressful, too many people for 1 main restaurant caused chaos and long ques at meal times. It felt like a cattle market, especially at dinner time. Waiting times on drinks varied depending on where you were sat. We found the kids section was neglected quite a lot. The kids food was bland and repeated. Healthier choices would have been welcomed rather than chips, burgers, sausages, nuggets etc every night. I would have expected some al a carte restaurants to be included in the AI package as we have received at other 4 and 5 star hotels. The beach was pleasant, as was the boat ride to and from; which was very regular. The beach would benefit from being cleaned daily. There was rubbish again left from previous days usage. We had read there were stray dogs on the beach; but they were very friendly and kept the themselves, seeking shade and water. Please don’t be put off by this. I visited the Spa on two occasions as a birthday present and had the pleasure of having treatments with Dewi who was new to the resort. I received a traditional hammam treatment with mixed massage on one occasion which was incredible; and a Swedish massage on the second - both being excellent. Thanks Dewi! We used the spa pool on many occasions, taking respite from the sun. The pool is cold, but welcomed in the July heat. We visited the arcade on two occasions, but found this to be overpriced and lacking in choice - as was the case with the main souvenir shops. Do not waste your money here, and save it for the bazaars further down the Lara strip. A toy plane was priced at 25 euro, whereas at the bazaars it was 12 euro. There is a bus stop directly across the road from the resort which is frequent (but not reliable on times), that costs very little (80p pp) for trips locally and to Antalya. We booked a late check out, but had issues with communication over this which soured our final day. We were told over the phone that a late checkout was available, but in person it was not. I did eventually manage to book and pay for this - but staff communication could be improved upon. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the resort to others.

We visited Trendy Lara on the 20th June 2026 and this was our second visit to the hotel, the first time we stayed at this hotel was in May 2024. The hotel is amazing, it has everything you want and more in a hotel. Immaculately kept grounds, lovely rooms, friendly staff that cannot do enough for you. Great pools and a fabulous childrens playground and kids club. Me and my husband went with my son, daughter in law and grandchildren, then halfway through our trip my other son and his family came out to surprise us. When we visited in 2024 i thought breakfast and lunch meals were very good but the dinner meal was a bit bland and repetitive. Trendy have greatly improved the dinner meals and we really enjoyed all our meals this time. We even booked the A La Carte Mexican and that was lovely too. I think the thing that i most love about this hotel and the reason why i will visit again and again is the relaxed atmosphere. You dont have the hassle of rushing down in the morning and saving sunbeds. We have visited in May and June and both times we found a poolside sunbed even at 10am. The boat trip to the beach is fun, and since our last visit in 2024 the beach area has also been greatly improved. I cannot reccommend this hotel highly enough and i cannot think of one negative concerning this hotel. Thank-you Trendy for a wonderful holiday.

While staying at Trendy Lara Hotel, we were approached by a lovely photographer who asked if we’d like some family photos taken. We jumped at the chance to capture us all together – something we really struggle to do when we’re away with the kids, as one of us is usually behind the camera! Yunus recommended wearing white and suggested having the photos taken towards the end of our stay. He hosted the shoot and was absolutely superb with our 4-year-old twins. My daughter was completely in her element and loved every minute, while my son wasn’t quite as enthusiastic 😂. It was such a lovely experience though, even if it was very hot, so I’d definitely recommend taking a handheld fan! 🤣 When it came to viewing the photos, we were genuinely impressed. There were so many beautiful shots to choose from. We decided on the 20-photo album along with the digital images, and Ismail in the photo shop was incredibly helpful, talking us through the options and offering great advice without any pressure. I’d also recommend setting aside plenty of time to go through the photos, as there were so many lovely ones and it took us a while to narrow them down. We chose the red/burgundy photo album as a keepsake from our family holiday, and we’re so pleased we did. It’s a beautiful souvenir that we’ll treasure for years to come. Overall, we’re really happy with both the experience and the final photos.
