Senza Garden Holiday Club - Ultra All Inclusive

Was really nervous before we came due to some negative reviews. Glad I made up my own mind. EVERY member of staff was pleasant, helpful and accommodating from minute 1. We tipped a little as it was deserved, but got great hospitality even when we didn't. The pools were great. Beach a bit gravelly but still a nice place to be. Food was standard all inclusive fare but with plenty of choice and done very well. Beer was cold and tasty. Cocktails not my cup of tea but normal choice of wines and spirits. Get over the fact that it is hilly and a bit of walking needed and it was a nice holiday had by all 4 of my party. Thanks Senzo Gardens.

So... this hotel stuck in my mind. In connection with Turkey, I will always remember it and always only in a good way. A huge plus of the hotel is its structure. The hotel is built on a rock, a hill. Of course, the descent is more significant if you want to go to the beach. Only a person with a mobility problem can complain about the stairs and the distance of the rooms from the beach and the restaurant, otherwise that person is either lazy or likes to live in a golden cage. The fact that you had the opportunity to walk, see the fauna and flora, breathe the air (for some it is "I have to commute here and there") makes the hotel unique and, in my eyes, special. At the same time, both my mother and I are not the fittest and we have been in hotel complexes before, but this "commuting" really makes the hotel special in that.
We came to hang out on the beach on vacation. We only went to the room to sleep, and that's how it should be. This is what this hotel is made for. The rooms were clean, air-conditioned. Every day we had clean towels and a tidy bathroom. The accommodation really fulfilled its purpose.
There are three pools. Each set of rooms (1-300; 301-600; 601-9—I don't know how many) has its own pool. The rooms near the restaurant have the largest and busiest pool available. The restaurant is great, there are many dishes to choose from. It's really up to everyone. The staff and service were fantastic. When you know how to treat people correctly, you give them a smile and respectful behavior, you will get the same in return and twice as much. Then you have an incredible vacation experience.
You can drink in the bar a few steps from the restaurant and right next to the pool (actually also in the restaurant, but within opening hours). Yes, the cups in which you receive drinks are plastic, but I am not surprised with at all the guests. Everything went quickly. There were sometimes quite a few people waiting at the main bar, but the barmans there worked really, really fast. When you are already sitting there, the animators will start calling you to the show in the amphitheater. Either there is a fire show, karaoke, dancing. However, every evening there is a disco. During the 7 days of our stay, two discos were paid for 7 euros, because there were already more special effects and a DJ (DJ could have played better when it was paid, because I enjoyed the free discos more :D).
We always found a free sunbed on the beach even though many people are accommodated. The beach is clean, the sea is gravelly with fine pebbles. It was transparent! The beach is just as clean. In the afternoon and evening, the staff clean everything. Here by the beach, in a beach bar, I ate the best pizza of my life. I believe the Italians have a lot to learn from the Turks. The pizza was not frozen, but they had their own homemade fresh dough ... and that made the pizza so delicious. The service there is also great. Everyone is nice and even when I made a mistake and went quite late to change the food I ordered, they told me that it was not a problem, even though I could see that it was already being worked on. I know that they would not be so considerate elsewhere, and I greatly appreciated that in them. It was obvious that they were tired, but they never rolled their eyes if you ordered the same thing 10 times. The staff was really very accommodating. I have to say that we came on this vacation just to relax and that's what happened ... but this hotel and especially its employees made this trip unforgettable. Thanks to them (80% really thanks to them) I have beautiful memories of the whole of Turkey and I definitely want to come back here and definitely to this hotel again!!
And that's why I want to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Kadir from the beach bar, Andrej from the Hammam, who guided us through it and made it more enjoyable for us, Elbet for his kind behavior and service, and Emir and Bahar for creating a great atmosphere and fun.
