Starlight Convention Ctr Thallasso Spa

Amazing experience with World of Sunrise resort. The territory is big, but really nicely managed. We stayed in one of the houses in the back of the territory (room 6407 if I'm not mistaken), next to the kids park, tennis courts and football field - in the beginning, I wanted to try and change to something closer to the sea and the main buildings, but quickly realized that that's the nesting area of all the birds (peacocks, hens, geese) - a few pieces of bread later, I had these guys camping out next to my balcony + the kids was close (we spent a lot of time there for the water slides). The noise level was decent - if you don't like it, the doors/windows block everything out. So, to go step by step 1) Food was great - 2 main restaurants - 1 in Starlight - last floor, great view, tends to be more crowded in the evening - lots of types of food (meats, fish always several types, veggies, Turkish section, lots of desserts, but also some premium dishes - which changed every night) - overall good; the 2nd restaurant in Sunrise is a bit simpler in size and amount of food/dishes available, but they tend to be of better quality than those of Starlight (I heard it's because of the cook who's been working there for a long time). The Sunrise hotel feels a bit less crowded. In any case - both are very good and going between these two is a great way to diversify. A-la carte was as expected - good quality (we went for the Turkish one, as it was outside). Various snack bars and lunch restaurants available throughout the day. All pretty good. 2) Bars - main halls work 24/7 (top shelf alcohol), the Sea bar in Starlight is the main place where people chill - has top shelf alcohol (but you have to ask for it every time - for example use Absolut for Bloody Mary or use Black Label for Whiskey and coke). There's a hidden gem - the cocktail bar that opens at 4pm till 11 or 12, not far from the reception. The guys there are amazing - the head mixologist and his crew - they really go way out to make the perfect cocktail and they have the biggest selection of specialty alcohols 3) Beach - sand + small rock, not as bad as Kemer, aqua shoes optional - lots of sunbeds - huge beachfront, so the fight was mostly for the sunbeds closest to the sea - the usual leaving of towels on the sunbed for half a day is omnipresent in all hotels 4) pools - lots of them; 2 with seawater, 1 adult only - not too many loungers around them, but i think that's intentional - I actually loved the ones surrounded by trees a bit further away from the main buildings. There's also a "sandy" area next to one of the saltwater pools. 5) Kids animation + slides: Animation (2 teams: Toucan and Wosy - a bit confusing at first) - Toucan caters to russian speaking kids, Wosy to English and Turkish. They where pretty cool, my daughter loved the Toucan team and made friends there The slides are good - nothing insane, but good enough for kids to be happy (working from 10 I think, to 5-6 pm) - It's a bit far away from the main buildings, but a you have something like a mini hotel territory right next to it (towel changes, 2 bars(regular and coffee), 1 restaurant, the animation team compound) Main Event - each Saturday they have a party on the football field (inflatable slides, lots of fun activities, animators - 20:30 to 22:30) 6) adult animation - the shows were great; after the shows you had live music (a band per each hotel), after you had the night club 2 main events - we went to the Artik & Asti concert (they built a stage on the football field). great atmosphere; there also was the beach disco (they built the stage and decorations for it) but somehow the atmosphere was off. Cleaning was done daily, few kinks and misses, but nothing worth mentioning. It's a big hotel, staff are working hard, but if you want something specific done or find out information, you have to push a bit and do a bit of an effort to find out info. I loved the green territory - living on the other side of the hotel, far from the beach, we had to walk through this beautiful botanical garden and it was simply exquisite. We'll do my best to return next year!

I want to say a big thank you to the management and all the hotel employees for the wonderful atmosphere and amazing experience of the hotel! I have been resting for a few days and I never stop discovering more pools, paradise gardens and corners. Around perfect cleanliness, beauty, great animation programs all day. The hotel has one very big problem - at every turn incredibly delicious food, coffee shops and snack bars and an amazing main restaurant! I can barely move anymore, I take Pilates here, but nothing helps 😂 All food is made of delicacies, it's impossible to stop! 🙈 Come to this paradise for happiness and pleasure, you will not regret it!

It's a nice family resort. Rooms are large and clean. Food is excellent. Staff is very caring.
