Side Breeze Hotel

Side Breeze Hotel Overview

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much when I first pulled up to Side Breeze Hotel in Evrenseki – you know how it is with some of these Turkish coastal spots, they can either be absolute gems or total tourist traps. But this place actually surprised me from the moment I walked into that lobby. There’s something about the way they’ve designed it that feels both upscale and relaxed at the same time, if that makes sense. The marble floors are gorgeous but not intimidating, and the staff behind the reception desk were genuinely helpful rather than just going through the motions.

What really sold me on this place was how they’ve positioned it in Evrenseki. I mean, you’re literally a five-minute walk from some seriously good seafood restaurants that most tourists never find – the kind where locals actually eat. The hotel sits on this quiet stretch where you can actually hear the waves at night (trust me, that’s not always the case along this coastline), but you’re still close enough to Manavgat that you can easily explore the old town and that incredible bazaar. The beach access is what you’d expect from a proper 5-star setup, but here’s the thing – they’ve got these really comfortable sun loungers that aren’t packed together like sardines. You can actually spread out and relax without feeling like you’re in someone else’s vacation photos.

The rooms are well, they’re exactly what you’d want after a long day of exploring or lounging by the water. Mine had this beautiful view of the Mediterranean that honestly made waking up early worth it – something I rarely say about hotel rooms. The air conditioning works properly (crucial in Turkish summers), and the bathroom has one of those rainfall showers that actually has decent water pressure. I particularly appreciated that they seem to soundproof things well because even though the hotel was pretty full during my stay, I never felt like I was listening to my neighbors’ conversations. The pool area gets busy around mid-morning, but if you’re an early riser like me, you can have it almost to yourself around 7 AM. Their restaurant serves a breakfast that’s more than just the standard buffet fare – they do these Turkish specialties that you won’t find at every hotel, and the coffee is actually good, not that watery stuff you sometimes get. One small thing that impressed me was how they handle the evening hours. Instead of everything shutting down at sunset, there’s this nice transition into evening with subtle lighting around the grounds that makes the whole place feel magical rather than just closing up shop. If you’re looking for something that feels genuinely Turkish but with all the comfort you’d want for a proper vacation, this place hits that sweet spot perfectly.

  Отдыхали с мужем в октябре 2022г. Отель неплохой. Уборка номера и постельное белье отличное.
  Отмечала свой день рождения. Неожиданно приятно было получить в номер поздравление от Дирекции отеля и большую тарелку разных фруктов. Ресторан отличный! Все работники услужливы. Еда вкусная и разнообразная. Мясо, курица, индейка, рыба каждый день разная, салаты с креветками, мидиями, соусы и сладости… Нам повезло т.к. сменился шеф – повар.
  
  What could be improved: Полотенца очень старые с дырками и пятнами. Не приятно. В описании отеля было сказано про доступность для людей с ограниченными возможностями. В душевой есть поручни. Случайно взялась за него и он отвалился. По-русски мало кто из персонала говорит, хотя при предварительной переписке сказали, что есть на ресепшен. Не было. Администратор сауны – редкий хам. Открыто сказал, что не любит русских туристов. При обмене пляжного полотенца записал нам долг 1 евро. Об этом узнали только при выезде. WI-FI бесплатный только в лобби. Чтобы иметь его в номере, заплатите по 2 евро сутки. Хотя и так на второй день работали и из номера. Обман!
