DIAMOND OF BODRUM

I have stayed in Diamond of Bodrum for 7 days from 24.06.24 and could not think of a better way to spend family holidays. The hotel is located 15 min walk from the town centre and surrounded by many cafes and restaurants (if you fancy something different). There is also a cheaper supermarket nearby to get some drinks, cigarettes etc. So the location gets 5 stars!!
We have been on all inclusive boarding and the variety of food and desserts was huge. Not enough time to try everything during a week stay (big shout out to kitchen staff for keeping it tidy and tasty) - fancy a kebab and grilled food? No problem, visit the pool grilled section at lunch time and you won't get disappointed! We have been eating late dinner at the hotel every night and been surrounded by amazing staff who work so hard and even through the heatwave they did not show how tired they are. Always there, always happy to chat and make you feel welcomed! I didn't feel awkward once , even if someone's English language was limited, we managed to get things sorted and I never felt disrespected or disappointed (Bedo and team - you guys rock the place!!!) Our tables were cleaned with the speed of light , drinks were replenished and food was always hot!
My 2 kids (16 and 10) were made to feel welcomed and someone was always chatting to them and making them feel as a part of the experience!
Our room (5002) was amazing with a small terrace to sit outside (enough space for everyone) and direct access outside and basically 10 seconds walk to the beach. At first I was a bit skeptical as room doors were pointing towards the street but I couldn't be more wrong - we had the best room in my opinion and once doors were closed to let air con do the magic , I couldn't hear anything from the street and town. Air con was working well , The lady who cleaned our room was amazing! The room is a bit dark but it was exactly what was needed after all day in the sun! The toilet and shower worked very well , The beds were comfy with a choice of 2 different pillows.
I have also used SPA and my Hamam and massage were amazing!(Best spent £60 in my life)
Downside?? You need to be an early bird to get sunbed by the pool or at the beach (I wasn't lucky enough to get pool beds but managed to have more luck at the beach ) as people will get their towels on very early in the morning so if you out partying or want enjoy the night in the local area , forget about that!(Small tip, there is a town beach 10 min walk from the hotel behind the international marina with free sunbeds and small umbrellas). Overall we had an amazing time and if I ever go back to Bodrum - Diamond of Bodrum will be a place where I will stay again!

Amazing hotel the view is gorgeous, the food and drinks full of alternatives, rooms clean. All the staff is extremely polite and helpful…the massage in the spa was the best I’ve ever had in my life and I just wanted to thank the lady who did it Andriani and the person who gave us all the information about it to us Alican! (I made sure to ask for their names before I left) Thank you both and thank you all the staff who work at this hotel as you ALL did an amazing job! 😊

Location: Absolutely perfect, A 5* location, only a few minutes on foot to the city center, to the Sea front beach port, bars, restaurants, .....etc
The hotel is on the beach front with its own private area with beds and umbrellas so you don’t have to pay for one and can sit in comfort by the sea.
Views: Spectacular! Still in love with it, Amazing views from every levels of the hotel.
Staff: Really helpful, Bar staff are great, making great cocktails all day.
Restaurant staff are great too, as soon as you sit down for a meal, they are ready to pour water and ask what drink you would like.... They’re ready to claim your dirty plates once you’ve finished.
Food: Wasn't a great variety I experienced but way more than enough, many tasty authentic Turkish foods to choose from, great variety of salads 🥗. Large amount of cakes, fruits and nuts, etc.
Room: clean, cosy with great view.
Walkability: You don't have to use bus or taxi, everything is so close. If you like walking exercise, this hotel is for you - early morning walk along the beach, night walk to high street where all the shops, restaurants, bars are.
The city is so lively and vibrant.
I highly recommend this hotel to whoever want to visit Bodrum - Diamond of Bodrum hotel is The One to book with.

Location is right on the beach front with its own private area with beds and umbrellas so you don’t have to pay for one and can sit in comfort by the sea. You could not want a better service. As soon as you sit down for a meal, they are ready to pour water and ask what drink you would like. They’re ready to claim your dirty plates once you’ve finished. There are different locations to grab a drink, and the service never alters. Rooms are big enough with air conditioning. There is a variety of food on offer. On the terrace there’s a patisserie with small delights, icecream and waffles service poolside, down on the ground floor they class it as a snack bar between 12-5 but they serve pizza, fried chicken, salads and burgers. Perfect for a picky eater!

This is so hard to review as there are unbelievable aspects and awful ones! Let's start with the awful... breakfast is horrible with no real offerings beyond eggs and cheese...the hotel has too many rooms for the facilities and if you're not up before 0830 you'll struggle for a sun lounger....the pool is the coldest thing I've ever been in...the beach is tiny and gravel .... Air con is virtually non existent

The unbelievable...lunch, dinner and the snack bar food all lovely....rooms small but ok albeit a bit out dated...staff are friendly ... The views and location are worth the price alone....

Great views..lovely buffet and amazing staff. Our room could have been slightly larger but apart from that everything was perfect. Great location and close to Bodrum centre. Private beach, gym, spa, pools, roof terrace. Lovely
