Such a lovely time we had here. We were welcomed by Sonia at reception who was very attentive and friendly. The rooms were so clean and we were given a free upgrade so please ask for one. There was a lovely team at the entrance always on hand to help . Special mention to Oye!!! Such a lovely exceptional gentleman. He even knew how to collapse our toddler’s stroller before we did 😂. Always had a smile on his face and happy to help. Breakfast wasn’t amazing. It was so repetitive and was just Turkish cuisine which if you’re not acquainted to won’t be enjoyable. So please bring more variety there. In the restaurant Nazaria was always on hand with a smile to serve. The chefs were always on hand for special requests and special mention to Pardeep who went out of his way to serve us fish. Rooms were so clean we got complimentary anniversary decor … thanks to Sonia and Lanka who even left hand written notes. We felt so special. Kids club felt a bit deserted. a lot of programs were just getting canceled. Some of the staff made very little effort with our toddler and had an inclination to the older kids while some just sat there on their phones. The toys there are old and in need of replacement. So kids club needs to get better. Rooms were great!! Getting cleaned everyday we absolutely loved it. They were very flexible with cleaning times too. Overall we had a lovely holiday. Thanks all

The staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. The only improvement I can think of to the hotel offer would be an enclosed air conditioned smoking bar area where you could sit and have a drink and escape the heat! Would throughly recommend though for the level of customer service alkne

We stayed over end of May for 6 nights. It was a wonderful experience with my husband and kids. A five star beautiful resort, much hot weather and lots to do in the resort you don’t even need to go out. I would highly recommend as very family friendly, food choices was amazing the buffet restaurant especially, we also had steak out which was delicious too one evening but the farmhouse buffet always had a lot of international options you won’t be disappointed. The staff at front desk always very kind and happy to help. Thank you for an amazing stay Rixos we have definitely recommended to all family and friends and would come again soon In sha Allah.

Excellent Hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff. Two staff in particular were exceptional. Suman in Room Service, who kept our room immaculate aways, and would clean the room around OUR timings and not when he wanted to clean it. The other person was Sawjanya, who not only looked after all our needs but also those of other people during breakfast time. She would have our tea and coffee ready and knew exactly what we wanted, after the first day. She was always so calm and pleasant to everyone in the restaurant and managed to see to everyone's needs. Brilliant experience at the hotel, from the Sauna, Gym, Spa area, restaurants, beach, swimming pools and Kids club. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Enjoyable but let down by F&B Service.
Room and facilities were excellent. Buffet service and beach/pool service let the stay down. Not enough servers for drinks or food, restaurant service poor and buffet generally the same. Overall enjoyable but expected more from a Rixos. (Mr Tailor service was excellent). Also very noisey, loud music but no guests enjoying it?
