Barut B Suites

Excellent location, staff, food, events! Can t wait to be back! Definetly recompend for families with kids ! It is the best place to be ! ☀️

Best hotel I have ever stayed at during my summer vacations so far! Highly recommended - worth every penny!

Usually when I book a 5-star or a 4-star hotel and then come to the place I realize that the reality does not live up to the online advertising... At best earlier hotels were 3-star hotels. But Barut B Suite really met all my expectations!

What an amazing country and nice honest hard working people! Thank you all for a great vacation - Çok teşekkürler!

Pros:

• Great hotel - everything at high standard
• The service-minded staff are on another level
• Close to a beautiful beach (250 m / 5 min casual walk)
• Clean Mediterranean Sea (tip: take a bath in the morning - best time)
• Enough sun loungers and parasols for all - no need to rush (both at the hotel pool area and at the beach, and free of course)
• Extremely clean and well organized hotel
• High standard of the rooms, bathroom, beds, etc...
• Good daily cleaning, everything is provided on a daily basis (water-bottles, soda-cans, clean towels, etc)
• AC in every room - included in the price
• Good free WiFi - even at the beach close to the Beach Club
• The food is delicious - so much to choose from the buffé - there are multiple choices for every taste on the planet (except for cannibals perhaps...)
• I highly recommend All Inclusive - it was worth the price
• The bar is open all day long until one o'clock at night
• The restaurant at the beach (Beach Club) has everything you need if you don't want to go back to the restaurant at the hotel (also free of charge for All Inclusive)
• The facilities: gym, sauna, hamam, tennis court, water slides, etc, even a nurse on duty
• At the hotels ground floor you'll find a café, several stores, hairdresser, ping pong tables, billiard tables and other fun stuff to do in the evenings with your kids
• Transport to Side is very easy and cheap with the buses that stop by about every 10 minutes (the drive takes approximately 20-30 minutes and costs 2~3 Euro per person, AC in the busses)
• An amazing Fitness and Spa crew!

In three massage-sessions they helped me with my shoulder pain that several doctors, chiropractors and physiotherapists in Sweden could not work out in 3 years! See my photo of them - you should definitely try these pros!

I am eternally grateful to you! It was worth every penny! I highly recommend to begin treatment early in your vacation because many therapies demand several sessions for best result. The prices are very low considering the level of knowledge and experience of the therapists you get!

Cons:

• The beer is good but not strong - the rest: liquor and cocktails are okay!
• The coffee at the restaurant was very weak - the Turkish tea is a better alternative for caffeine-addicts like me. Only the last days before departure did I find out that you can order Turkish coffee which is stronger - but order at least 2-3 cups right away for a decent caffeine-hit in the morning!
• I couldn't stay longer...

More facts: It is a family friendly hotel - quiet, safe and comfortable. Close to the beach and shopping but also has good, safe and clean pools for both big and small. Maybe not a good option for young party people though. What I have seen there are no nightclubs in the area... Fits perfectly for newlywed couples on honeymoon, pensioners, families with children and all other tourists who long for a relaxing quiet luxurious uncomplicated vacation.

The hotel staff are amazing! Friendly, polite, service-minded and hard working. Many speak good English, few of them less so, but usually there is always someone close by who can speak. What I have seen during my visit there the vast majority of the tourists are Russians - so the staff can speak Russian and also German well.

Remember to bring cash for tips - in Turkey it is customary to tip. Something I only learned when I got there, since in Sweden we no longer pay with cash and tips are usually included in the higher price. And also remember to tip the staff who work in the background such as cleaners and kitchen staff. If you don't have change, ask for help at the reception - they may be able to change for you. The dominant currency besides Turkish Lira seemed to be Euro.

Barut staff - thank you for one of the best vacations I've ever had! I will definitely visit you again and also recommend you to friends and family. Some names I do remember: Ahmet and Mesud - great waiters and much more than that, Ali (the entertainer) a one of a kind guy, Gengis Khan at Fitness & Spa (believe it - his real name!), Ibrahim the nurse and many more wonderful people I hope to see again next time!

Unfortunately I didn't have any anonymous photos of the hotel, our room and the pool area that I could upload...
