My Ella Bodrum Resort & Spa

Please avoid this hotel and save your money. From stepping into hotels lobby you will see that it is not a luxury 5 star hotel like advertised. It is very average tired and unfortunately dirty place. Towels in rooms or at the pool are old ripped and hard as sanding paper. Everywhere is dirty and in need off repairs . Staff is rude and looks after turkish tourists first than foreign travellers. There is no entertainment neither in the evening apart from kids disco and in day time extremely loud dj and game off darts. Hotels wifi is down a lot. Reception seems to have limited English and even less will to help . All inclusive food was good but rushed as to find table was hard and food was grabed by first come and a lot off times not replaced. Spa was dirty with taps covered in clay masks residue as you had to wash it yourself . No toilet paper dirty towels everywhere and hole in leaking ceiling. Also hotel is surrounded by building site and you need taxi to get to any bars or restaurants or shops. Bar service was same syrup based coctails at the pool as in the evening lobby bar. Pool area was small and beds were very close to each other and hotels beach is one strip off rocky sand and rocky sea shore with couple beds and stray dogs sleeping there. If it was advertised as 3 star hotel I would have no problem but as 5 star hotel I was expecting to get luxury experience witch was not existing.

it was a little bit crowded with the group of kids but guest relation and alakart restaurant was amazing. Rooms are very comfortable and the people are very helpful.

We visited the area and walked past the hotel. Outside we saw a stand advertising boat trips, the boat was called The Brothers boat. We chatted to Hakan who told us all about the boat trip and the hotel. We were very impressed, Hakan was polite and professional. We booked the boat trip with him for the following day. We picked up the boat in Turgutreis marina around 10.30am. The boat was in superb condition, the crew were fantastic. Hakan came onto the boat to make sure everybody was happy. The boat was lively and great fun. The drinks prices were very reasonable. We set off over to a small island opposite, after 30 minutes for a swim we headed off into aquarium bay. We had lunch which was delicious with good portion size. After lunch we had a couple more stops for swimming and relaxing. We sat on the upper deck and the cushions were super comfortable. The toilets were clean and tidy but the crew were fantastic. Great value for money and well with a visit to My Ella to find the wonderful Hakan ❤️

This is the first time staying at this hotel and has been good so far as the entertainment staff have been very friendly, especially Ronaldo. He would check up on us to make sure everything is okay and if we need anything he will be there. However the reception staff have not been welcoming at all. Any issues we have we get turned away. We had issues with the room and we spoke to the staff and they refused to move the room saying they are full, the hotel wasn’t busy at all. Overall it has been really good other than the room issue.

My Ella hotel really good The entertainment team as always amazing our 2nd time coming back and made good friends for life, Went on the boat trip Ronaldo didn’t let us down with what he said was included was amazing deffo recommend Overall best holiday to remember 🥰
