TUI BLUE Sensatori Akra Sorgun

After travelling to the Caribbean and Mexico we decided to visit Turkiye again, having been to lots of different resorts and hotels. It is not very often we return to a hotel again. If that happens it must be truly exceptional. Akra Sorgun stands above its competitors for a number of reasons. It has absolutely fabulous staff, whose sole mission is to enhance your visit and make you want to return again and again. The Hotel is modern. All rooms have a sea view and its located 1 hour from Antalya airport. I would recommend a private transfer. We use Dursun Side. There is a local bus stop outside the hotel taking you into Side and Manavgat. The surroundings are beautiful, from the gardens to the beach. The food has to be the best we have had anywhere, with so much choice for everyone, and with so much attention to detail. The main restaurant has theme nights each evening. All a la carte restaurants are excellent with great menus. At the Olive Italian, we would like to thank Mehmet Ulker for looking after us during our visit. The Safran Turkish restaurant is newly refurbished, and we love it! It has a great new adult dining area and great new menu this year. Thankyou to Hurun for looking after us. He is attentive, friendly and treats us like friends during our stay. The beach is wide and immaculate. Don't forget to bring scuba shoes with you, as the sand gets very hot. There are stones as you get into the sea, but once you are in the sand is soft . Thankyou to the following staff members: Semih: Main restaurant, breakfast and lunchtime. He always gives such a warm welcome each day. He is professional and gives amazing customer service; such a credit to your team. Atilla: Works lunchtime at ocean, and main restaurant in the evenings. He is such a fantastic member of staff. He ensures you have the best dining experience. Thankyou for our special decorated table each evening Omar: Works on the beach. He greets everyone each day. He never stops working! Just tell him where you want to be located and he will raise up your parasol and ensure that you have enough towels. Thankyou for our lucky charms. We look forward to celebrating our daughters birthday this September this will be our 6th visit! Melissa Andrew and Bethany

Our 4th different Sensatori holiday and by far the best to date. Resort itself is spotless and well maintained. Plenty of lovely open green space. Spent most days at the family pool and well looked after, with attentive staff and life guards on duty throughout. The hotel seems to get all the little things right eg fresh towels available at convenient locations and without the need for towel cards and unnecessary rules. Plenty of loungers available too so no need for the usual early morning scramble. Adult area seemed lovely too but perhaps a swim up bar would have been even better. The staff were amazing from start to finish and couldn’t do enough for us. The food lovely throughout the various restaurants. You can have a sit down meal off a menu everyday and A’la cart available in the evenings. These restaurants were all fab. The buffet was lovely and easily the best we have experienced. Lots of choice and the quality was excellent. The entertainment was great with some excellent shows. You get kids well catered for with kids clubs and activities. Perhaps less to do for older teenagers but as we travelled with a 10 year old, we found the range excellent. The hotel located 10 minute taxi ride away from Side, which is well worth a visit. All in all, absolutely loved our stay. Usually after 10 days we are ready to come home but not this year. We would happily stay even longer.

This hotel is amazing. The food, the service, the staff, the grounds are fabulous, the beach, the entertainment, the rooms and the cleanliness are all 5 star. I do not have one bad comment to make about this hotel. My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon here for 8 nights. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, we were waited on hand and foot. The staff were so friendly and helpful. They couldn't do enough for you. Highly recommended. I will be returning without a doubt!

We stayed at Akra sorgun from 31st-10th July. I can truly say this is the best holiday we have ever been on. The rooms were spacious always kept so clean with brilliant housekeeping. The air-con in the room was great and kept the room lovely and cool which was great to come back to after spending the day around the pool as it was very hot! The food was fantastic with so much choice. The buffet was never repetitive. Gala night being our favourite with lots of made up plates to try. Truly fantastic. We loved the Turkish and Italian restaurant and also the bbq. These were easy to book and had no problems doing so with help from the guest relations team. Even as a big party they were very accommodating. A nice touch is that branded drinks are included. There are so many staff members that I could mention as everybody is so friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. We could always find sun loungers around the main pool and never had a problem. All in all we had the BEST holiday and cannot wait to return and if you’re reading this wondering whether you should book don’t hesitate in doing so!!

We have just returned from a wonderful holiday August 2nd to 9th at Sensatori Akra Sorgun, a family of 10, Grandparents, Daughters with their partners and children aged 11, 6, 3 & 2 years old. Arrived at hotel around 03:30 and was pleased that we could order food after the long journey. Throughout our stay there was always a good selection of food at all times. The À la Carte was easy to book and extremely nice even with the young children. There is plenty of sunbeds for everyone at all times of the day. We did like to get up early to secure a good location by the baby pool for the children. The only negative things I would say is the temperature of the food in the Restaurant was not hot enough. The curtesy shower rooms do not have any hooks for your clothing. These minor things would not put us off staying at this hotel again as we had a really good time, highly recommended.
