DoubleTree by Hilton Bodrum Isil Club All-Inclusive Resort

We were at the hotel from 19.06 to 30.06, for 11 nights, so we had plenty of time to enjoy our stay and form our impressions. We are a family with a 2-year-old child and a dog, and we don't prioritize active entertainment, animation, or similar activities. We prefer unobtrusive service and a moderate vacation, so this hotel was perfect for us. The advantages of the hotel include: 1. Incredibly beautiful views and a clear, crystal-clear sea. 2. A smooth, sandy entry into the sea. 3. Green area. Many people write that it is small, but in our opinion, it is sufficient. Perhaps we have not visited hotels with a huge area, so we had enough space here. 4. Restaurant service, delicious food, and good desserts (I am not a fan of cakes and pastries in Turkish hotels, but I liked them here). Our two-year-old child does not eat fast food (fries, nuggets, etc., like some children), and there was always something suitable for a child's diet. 5. The hotel's clientele consists of pleasant, well-mannered, mostly family-oriented individuals. Cons: 1. In the initial days, there were difficulties with communication: reception, housekeeping. I had to ask several times for an additional set of towels for the child (we had two sets, although we were the second family to check in: mom, dad, and a child). 2. The absence or insufficient availability of internet in the beach area and on the piers. Since vacationers spend a lot of time in these locations, this issue is quite significant. 3. The mini bar in the room is not replenished without a request (only upon arrival). My husband specifically asked the maid, who did not understand or speak English, to replenish the mini bar, but when she was not on duty, the other staff did not do so. 4. Poor soundproofing: Our room was located near an evening bar, so the music was very loud in the evening, and we sometimes had to put our child to sleep with earplugs. 5. Narrow beach: it's really quite small, although we always found sunbeds for ourselves in the morning (usually came by 10:00). There's not much space for a child to play in the sand. 6. In the first days, the breakfasts seemed meager, but with each passing day, our opinion changed, and by the end of our stay, we concluded that there was enough for breakfast. Despite everything, we had many pleasant memories of our vacation upon arrival, so we gave this hotel 5 stars.

The resort decor is dated but still has its early 2000 charms. The location was isolated if you’re looking for some peace and quiet. Went in early May, whilst unusually chilly, there were quite a number of guests staying which was a lively vibe. The water was clear and clean. The staff were fantastic and friendly, personable and helpful. Was pleasantly surprised by the staff coordinating a rather romantic welcome. The inclusive package made it convenient with meals. The morning breakfast buffet was a treat with everything you would want from the Western and Turkish experience, with an extensive selection of pastries and breads, olives and cheeses. As well as a dedicated chef to cook your eggs how you like it. The food in the pool canteen could be improved out of breakfast/lunch/dinner time. The garden facing bedroom was comfortable and had all the essentials, the bed was firm which is perfect for us. Lots of friendly cats and very well behaved. Really enjoyed the stay and breakfast. Perhaps time to upgrade the outdoor space for a modern feel with day beds, hammocks and all day menu of Turkish pides.

We had a wonderful stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Bodrum Işıl Club. The location in Torba is peaceful and surrounded by nature, with beautiful views of the Aegean Sea. Our room was modern, very clean, and had a lovely sea-view balcony. The main restaurant offered a wide range of tasty local and international food, and everything was fresh and well-prepared. The beach area and large pool were always clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the calm, well-maintained atmosphere. There are lots of activities for both adults and children, including water slides, tennis courts, and entertainment. The spa was also a highlight — professional and relaxing. Above all, the service was excellent. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, polite, and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an all-inclusive resort experience in Bodrum.

For the price, especially if you play the Hilton Honors points game, this is an excellent value for families. Had a great time here, the staff is amazing and very relaxed. Even let us stay on property like 12 hours after check out time enjoying the all-inclusive amenities.

The hotel feels outdated, with a dull pool area and no swim-up bar. Finding a free sunbed at the beach is nearly impossible unless you reserve one at 2 a.m.—very frustrating. While food at the main restaurant was decent, there are no snack stalls like other all-inclusive resorts. Overall, not worth the money compared to nearby options.

We stayed here in the deluxe room from 19th-23rd May. Overall we had a nice experience. Positives on our stay were good cleanliness all around in our room, around seating areas inside and outside. The resort exceeded our expectations compared to the advertisement as we’re pleased with the size of the resort. The location and scenery were impressive and the water was inviting and clean. The pier and beach were a beautiful spot to walk on, relax and take pictures. The atmosphere was lively, music was uplifting both by pool and sunset lounge. There were a couple of engaging activities in the pool - dancing and volleyball. This is a perfect place for families and couples. The breakfast included sweet and savoury pastries, there are enough options to satisfy. There were a variety of options in lunch and dinner. Unlike other all inclusive hotels, the food here was well seasoned, full of flavour and makes you want to go back for more. While some foods are repetitive, you do get your money’s worth. Plenty of grilled options and healthy salads. The fruit and dessert options were tasty and fresh. In all of the bars there are alcoholic and non alcoholic options with friendly bartenders. On our last day, it was busier towards peak times, then we noticed there were more food options in the snack bar and a fresh BBQ outside by the pool at 5:30. All staff were friendly and polite, however there was a language barrier. Many of which could not speak English which affected our stay as they could not understand us. With the ‘Hilton’ name, we expected English to be spoken and understood by most staff as expected of the Hilton. The experience didn’t feel as special, most staff spoke only Turkish. This language barrier prevented us from ordering food, making reservations or communicating with staff which was not ideal. If you are thinking to come here from a primarily English speaking country such as the UK, you may struggle to communicate with staff. The staff at reception however were excellent, friendly and spoke clear English. What seemed to surprise us was the fact that there was no doctor on site who spoke English fluently. In this case, communication is vital as there could be an emergency.

Hotel was great for families. There are activities for all ages. Food was the only down side. Do to the all inclusive it is quantity over quality. The cafe was great with drinks from coffees and mocktails to really good day of the week cocktails. Spa area was really nice. I recommend a Hamman and a massage. The therapist I had was great Nazli was the best part of my stay great aromatherapy massage with long body strokes to relax you. Thank you to the whole staff.

We came here expecting a peaceful vacation by the sea, but found two speedboats anchored directly in the designated swimming area — one linked to the hotel owner’s son, the other to the watersports business. Despite reporting this to reception, no action was taken for hours. I was told the boats “could not be moved” and even denied a written statement, with the excuse that “no authorized person was available.” But here’s the most telling part: After I reported the situation to the Turkish Coast Guard, the boats were removed within 15 minutes. This proves that the hotel’s explanation was not only misleading but also illegal. Worse, the guest who raised the concern — me — was treated with complete disregard. Further more their solution was to advise us to leave the hotel like I need their advice to decide to leave the hotel! Is this really the kind of treatment you expect at a hotel that charges the equivalent of a half monthly minimum wage per night? This was just a minor but disgusting problem. Now imagine how you’d be treated if something truly serious happened during your stay. A complete disgrace to the Hilton brand.

Very nice all inclusive hotel right on the beach... and it is a very nice sea, calm crystal clear waters with the option to sunbathe on the grass area or on one of the piers. The hotel is not too big that it is overwhelming, it is a good medium size. The personnel is warm and helpful. One major shortfall is that the food and drinks could be better quality. Not bad but simply average... an area for improvement but nonetheless good value for money hotel for a relaxing holiday.
