Sami Beach Hotel

I stayed in the hotel with my mum. After reading recent reviews, we traveled with some trepidation. However, we over all had a lovely experience. On arrival reception staff were not particularly welcoming and didn't tell us anything, but we, and our luggage was taken to our room. The room was small, basic, with not much storage. But is was very clean and every day cleaned to a good standard. For the amount of guests it was pretty impressive how clean they managed to keep it. My only slight gripe might be the noise from the strip in the early hours, I could hear it from the front of the room and slightly from the back. The front of the room had quite a gap between the door and the frame. Thid could be better insulated. It did not bother me but I think in some rooms it could have been worse so be aware. The food was good and plentiful and it was never hard to get a table even in busy periods. There was always beef and chicken dishes, often turkey and fish. There would also be some turkish foods. We had some lovely Turkey, steak and even salmon. The drinks were good enough too and you rarely had to wait behind more than 2 people, if you had to queue at all. The bar staff and restaurant staff work tirelessly and efficiently. The entertainment was mainly dance acts and in our 10 days 2 bands, as well as a karaoke night. We do not usually go for entertainment but quite enjoyed it. Later the music and dancing was mainly Turkish. We enjoyed seeing everyone having fun dancing. Lots of people mentioned the animation team but they never spoke to us once. The pool is nice and it was always easy to get a sun bed and ghe loungers were very comfortable. The shingly beach was lovely with many sun beds. They were rather packed together and if you wanted one under the canopy with good shade or one right by the sea, you may have needed to be up very early. Some days it was easy to get a bed and others not so, but I think if you asked staff for help, they would try to move spare loungers so that you could get 2 together. The sea is lovely and clear, with fish swimming near the shore. It is quite shallow for some time. We went out on the strip a few times to explore the area a bit but didn't feel the need to eat out. I think this was the laziest and most easy going holiday I have ever had and for a very reasonable price.

We have just returned from a week at Sami Beach hotel and it truly is in a fab location with a beautiful beach front. I'd read about noise from nearby clubs but we could only faintly hear it and it certainly didn't disturb sleep. The food was repetitive but good and there was always something that we liked, there was also ice cream and snacks in an afternoon. We took an all day boat trip, organised by the hotel by the really helpful guy on the beach desk. There was also evening entertainment most nights. The bar staff were great, we never had to wait for a drink. All sounds good so far!!! However the reason for my 3* is the hotel is quite run down, tatty rooms, broken tiles, a lot of dangerous trip hazards, to be honest the list could go on and on. The biggest downside is housekeeping which is pretty non existent, on arrival the bins in the room were overflowing but we thought maybe an oversight but no, the most we got was new toilet roll and the bed made once.

We had a wonderful stay at Sami Beach Hotel and really enjoyed our holiday. The food was delicious and there was a good variety of dishes, so we were very satisfied with the meals. We also really enjoyed the animation team. They were friendly, energetic, and always made the atmosphere more enjoyable. The evening shows were especially great and entertaining. We looked forward to the shows every night and had a lot of fun watching them. We would especially like to mention Orkun from the animation team. He was very friendly, helpful, and made a great impression on us throughout our stay. His positive energy and warm personality really added to our holiday experience. Overall, we had a fantastic time at Sami Beach Hotel and would happily come back again. Thank you to the whole team for making our holiday so enjoyable and memorable!
