Sahra Su Holiday Village & Spa

Stayed here for a week from 26/10 as a family of 5 - let's get a few elephants out of the room first: *Yes, there are lots of cats all over the complex so if u don't like them, don't come. *Yes, the food could be hotter but it was very tasty and a credit to all the catering staff who spent hours preparing it. *Yes, it is not exactly in the middle of everything but a short 200TL taxi ride takes you to Hisaranu, with its many shops and restaurants. As a family of 5, we thought we would have to order a 7 seater, however, the taxi had a "jump" seat in the boot so we were all able to get in. *Yes, karaoke is not everyones cup of tea but I thought that the entertainment was fabulous, from the traditional Turkish dancers to the acrobats- they obviously spend hours perfecting their routines and there were lots of open mouths, in awe at the amazing moves. *Yes, some areas of the complex could do with updating, the rooms aren't exactly 5 star but what they lack in their finish is more than made up for by the hard working cleaning staff, who quietly and conscientiously go about their business on a daily basis. A huge shout out to Sky and her staff in the Spa for the treatments that my wife, daughter and son received- an amazing 2.5 hours getting pampered was an incredible experience for them. Also want to say a huge thanks to Onur Dil, who so kindly replied to my message that I sent a couple of weeks before we went- my family were over the moon when they saw the Villa that had been reserved for us. We practically had a private pool at the bottom of our stairs. This was our first ever visit to Turkey and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Yes, the haters are always gonna hate , but our overriding memories will be of such hard working, friendly staff who went above and beyond to make their guest's stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. Thank you.

We have just returned home from Sahra Su and were extremely disappointed. Having read the reviews on TripAdvisor we expected so much more from our break. The hotel is located in the middle of nowhere however on arrival the grounds beyond the gate were very well maintained. This has to be one of the few positives. We entered the lobby which felt like an old peoples home and checked in before being led to our room, the stairwells felt musty and smoky, the carpet on the floor was faded and worn and first impressions were not good. Upon entering the room we both looked at one another in disgust. The walls were marked and dirty, as was the poor quality furniture. Skirting boards half hanging off, doors all marked and chipped, lamps many and poor state - the entire room from floor to ceiling was grotty. We returned to reception immediately and complained and was offered another room. The staff member escorted us down, no apology or conversation and too busy on his phone - the staff seemed completely disinterested. The second room, whilst slightly better was still pretty poor and nothing like we saw on any of the images. The whole thing just needed a complete refurb. We returned back to reception again to voice our dissatisfaction and asked to be upgraded, the staff initially advised us there was no rooms before changing tack and telling us we could move for an additional cost of £20 per night!? Not sure why we would pay more for something sub par, when we told them it was not what was expected their answer - "what was you expecting for a 3* ?" Given the hotel is advertised on EasyJet as a 4* we were both a little taken back. The manager refused to help further, pretty much shrugging his shoulders - we advised we would inform easyjet which we subsequently did and raised a complaint which led to them later issuing us with a partial refund - nowhere near what we had hoped for. We went back to the room and unpacked, annoyed and fed up - thankfully we were only here for 5 days and at least the sun was shining. The resort grounds and gardens were well kept, as stated before this is a few of the positives. A detailed list of pros/cons we found are listed below. Pros ----- Gardens well kept Cats are friendly, well looked after and a bonus to any cat lover The sunshine (obviously not hotel specific) Food was ok'ish in terms of selection - listed as a pro since there are so few others Cons -------- Rooms are grotty, poor quality and badly needing a refurbishment Most of the staff are disinterested Breakfast - opens at 7:30am yet Omelettes not available until 8am!? Staff Service in the restaurant is hit and miss, the odd few are ok - most don't even get you a drink Some of the food is luke warm The toaster (of which there is one is half working) The coffee machines - worst coffee we have ever tasted, weak even as double espresso Cereals - Milk in cartons, left warm by the side of the cereals and bowls!? Lobby - feels like you are entering an o

This hotel is was so good for a friends/couples holiday. We had a villa right next to the pool where we had a upstairs with bedroom and bathroom and downstairs, all the staff are lovely I’m not sure of Ozzy still works there or R2 but if so they are amazing staff! On a Wednesday they have a night out where you go to the town and the reps come with you we had a brilliant night so much food there like friends on a night out l,we met some lovely girls there who became friends what made the night out fun. The food was a hit and miss but I’m a fussy eater but there as always something for me,my friends all enjoyed it. There wasn’t a lot to do in the hotel what is a downfall but they had music on what helps. In the day they have waffle time and there is someone walking along the pool with fresh fruit asking if you would like some. At the entrance they have a button you press of you would like a taxi what makes it so much easier instead of getting the reception to call on. You had a towel card where you would take your dirty towel back and get a clean one. Our room was cleaned every day we were there with fresh fizzy drinks in both fridges and water. There is a mini market right next to the pool they blow inflatables up for you and have everything you can imagine. Of the hotel was updated it would be so much better but all in all we had a brilliant time!
