Orka Village Hisarönü

We had to phone the police tonight ourselves as the hotel staff phoned the night manager for permission. The Police came and were very professional but staff were absolutely useless. If you value safety I wouldn't bother coming here. Booked with TUI but I'll make a separate complaint with them.

Honest review of this hotel in October half term. We had a brilliant time, with some points that I will mention. The hotel was very quiet and we had it to ourselves virtually, apart from a few other families. Rooms are in need of a refurb, as they are very tired. We stayed in room 416 and did have some issues, all of which the staff dealt with immediately. Pool area is fantastic, although the water was freezing at this time of year and could do with being heated. Slides are brilliant. All the staff are lovely and friendly. The hotel is kept very clean! The main hotel area is very modern with some shops, sadly they were closed because of the time of year. The supermarket on site was virtually empty because of the time of year aswell, again a real shame. Entertainment was non existent because of the time of year, only Dolphin left and he did an amazing job but nothing going on. We did have belly dancing one night and the bar staff were brilliant fun at night. Very entertaining. TUI were very naughty to sell the holiday as if we would be getting what people in Summer get. They should tell you things will be winding down and nothing going on in October half term. We like it a little bit lively at night and it was dead for half term week! Food I’m afraid was not for us. There wasn’t much choice and what there was, wasn’t the best. However the food at lunchtime at the pool bar was really nice and well priced. Drinks were about £2.50 for a Coke and cocktails £8.00. Again sadly they weren’t the best. It sounds like I’m being negative but I’m just giving an honest review. None of it spoiled our holiday. Definitely go up the cable cars and have lunch at the top in the wine bar. That was amazing. You can watch the people paragliding off the top! The strip is only a five min walk away from the hotel and here you will find all the shops selling fakes, supermarkets etc. We were recommended to go the Seahorse Beach Club. It was awful and an absolute dive. They do come and collect you, but we spent £250 in a day on food, drink and sunbeds and it wasn’t in the best location. If you want a peaceful relaxing holiday in October with amazing staff and views, then this is the place for you. If you want somewhere a bit busier book elsewhere. The most amazing break though!

Nice place for us The staff is very kind and friendly. The rooms are very clean. Dinner varieties are sufficient and the meatballs and doner at the barbecue party are fantastic. Snackbar was cooking lunches very well. The aquapark is fun for both adults and children, I think there is no need for more. It is a very ideal hotel for both families with children and couples without children.
