This was one of the best hotels Regnum Carya I have ever been to. The kids club was amazing. It was very spacious, clean and the staff were most accommodating. There was a lego area, hobby craft room, a karaoke room, gaming room, and so much more. In addition there was a snack time area The Buffet area was vast and there were different areas to sit in, which meant that even at busy times, it wasn't overly noisy. There was a special area for children's food. The food in the buffet was varied and done to such a high standard, we didn't have a need to visit the al a carte restaurants. There was a bar/coffee area in reception along with chocolate covered strawberries which was a nice touch. The gym was excellent, with a large room for the cardio machines and another large area with other machines/weights. The staff in the gym were most helpful with helping whilst I was training too. The room we stayed in was large, clean and mostly quiet.

Maxx Royal Bodrum is an amazing luxury resort built in Golkoy, the paradise bay is amazing, the water is clear blue however, you can find these characteristics of the nature in other places in Bodrum as well. Therefore, I want to talk about the service and other marvelous things about this hotel. As we arrived to the lobby we were stunned with the magnificence of the view. We stayed at this place when it was a Hilton, however, it seems like they knock down everything and rebuilt. And it's so well done! We were welcomed by Ms. Nevin, whom introduce herself as our "personal assistant". She handled our check in smoothly at the terrace while we had our welcome refreshments. She then explained the resort app and explained how we can connect with her and our other assistant Caglar thru out our stay via chat. Many hotels have chat messaging nowadays, majority are built with pre-loaded questions to respond to you, some does have real AI that can learn from the questions but Nevin and Caglar were actually our personal assistants.

Mandarin Oriental Bodrum hotel is absolutely beautiful. The grounds are green and lush. The food was incredible. We stayed for 5 nights and opted for the one bedroom apartment which perfectly suited our family of 4. The room was very spacious and cleaned twice daily. It also had a washing machine which was wonderful. There is two beaches of which I would highly recommend Lucca with its soft sand and clear water. There are plenty of dining options to cater for everyone. Watch out for Gigi - while delicious there far too many "influencers" ruining the vibe and taking photos everywhere!!
