Hillside Beach Club

This May half term marked our ninth visit to Hillside Beach Club – and we’re glad we returned. After our last stay a few years ago, we debated trying somewhere new, but the improvements made since then have reaffirmed our love for this resort.|Notable Improvements||• Room Refurbishment: The previously tired and rustic interiors have been updated with a look of simple sophistication. Gone are the bead curtains at the bathroom doorway – replaced by elegant wooden doors that are both stylish and practical.||• Food Quality: The culinary offering has noticeably improved. A particular highlight was the fresh prawns, a welcome upgrade from the mushy ones we encountered in earlier years. Every meal felt fresher and better curated. The two served restaurants Pasha and Beach bar were notably improved. |• Sunbed Availability: The new rule that removes towels after 2 hours of inactivity is a game changer. It means more sunbeds are available throughout the day – a small change with a big impact.||• Yoga & Pilates Timing: Moving these classes from the early morning to mid-morning was a smart move, especially for UK guests who’d rather not rise at dawn on holiday. This simple scheduling change made it easier to enjoy wellness activities without sacrificing rest.||Things to Keep in Mind||• Pricing: Hillside remains on the expensive side, especially for drinks. Even with our 30% discount, beverages felt overpriced.||• Wish List: I’d love to see reformer Pilates classes added in the future. It would elevate the wellness offering and provide more variety for fitness-minded guests.||• The House Wine has taken a dive and has been replaced to a restrictive low quality brand which is really isn’t good, so you will need to add wine at mealtimes to the costs also. ||Final Thoughts||Despite the cost, the stunning scenery, thoughtful upgrades, and overall atmosphere make Hillside Beach Club a place we’ll continue to return to. It’s reassuring to see a resort not resting on its reputation but striving to improve

Our experience at Hillside Beach Club was simply exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff impressed us with their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail — truly going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The food was another highlight — delicious, fresh, and varied, with something to satisfy every palate. Whether it was breakfast or dinner, every meal felt like a special occasion. Our room was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable, with thoughtful touches that made our stay even more enjoyable. Waking up to the serene views and the sound of the sea was pure bliss. And the beach… absolutely breathtaking. Crystal-clear water, soft sand, and plenty of space to relax. It felt like our own private slice of paradise. This is more than just a resort — it's a complete escape. We left feeling refreshed, pampered, and already dreaming about our next visit. Highly recommended. Thanks for the nonstop working staff!

Had a fantastic stay here and would highly recommend for either families or couples. The choice and quality of the food were excellent. The adult/silent beaches were lovely. The nightly entertainment for both adults and children were a real plus. An excellent kids club. Amazing location with lovely views. My only complaints are that the rooms could benefit from being modernised, and accessing the bathroom from outside was not ideal.

An amazing place to stay! Beautiful setting with great facilities and food. What really made our time special here was the outstanding service from the Hillside Team. My family were genuinely upset to be leaving when our holiday came to an end. Cannot recommend highly enough.

SO GOOD YOU WILL REBOOK AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE. The best hotel I have been too for friends & family. I have been 3 times and have never felt bored or left the hotel as there is so much to do. It is the perfect hotel for teenagers, every year my teenager makes friends with other teenagers in the hotel and they spend everyday together allowing my husband and I to relax! The buffet is the BEST I have ever been to, so much choice and great quality. The ocean was clean, clear and turquoise and had a beautiful view. There are lots of water sports to do and many activities throughout the day (darts, bingo, football, water aerobics, painting pottery, theatre shows, beach volleyball) so it’s the perfect hotel if you want to have fun! I love how the hotel rooms are situated along the mountains, it’s very beautiful. Service is great and there are charging areas for phones all around the hotel! There is a platform in the ocean which you can swim to and dive off or tan on which is where I spent a lot of my days in the hotel. However, the rooms are average and not great for the price. Also, there are two restaurants for dinner, one at pasha and one on the beach and both have the same menu which is quite limited and mostly seafood. You will also end up paying a lot more than expected because a lot of the food in the hotel is not included and neither are water sports or spa treatments. Also, the beach is pebbles not sand which many people don’t like but I actually prefer it. If you are going in may in the school half term, at the end of the week the reception is very busy with long queues as everyone is leaving at the same time. The hotel is not very accessible as a lot of the rooms have lots of steps to get to them. Overall, it’s always an unforgettable experience at hillside and I truly think no other hotel comes close in terms of activities and fun!

We just returned from a month in Turkey (June 2025). For perspective I am just a Mom who has been lucky enough to have traveled the world extensively—over 130 countries. After our incredible time at Hillside Beach Club, we spent a week at D Maris Bay, a two hour drive away. But honestly, it was Hillside that captured our hearts in a way few places do. Hillside is a special gem that speaks fluently to both adults and wide-eyed little travelers like my 9yr old son. Yes, the views are stunning. We snorkeled, took boat rides, kayaked, swam and took our kiddo on his first “Discover Scuba” dive right in the bay. The sea, impossibly warm, calm and clear. The food, fresh and thoughtful. The rooms melt into the trees like they grew there. It’s a beautiful blend of indulgence for adults and magic for kids. The spa… ahhhhmazing. But what was so very special- the staff. There’s a warmth in their energy that doesn’t feel scripted. It feels genuine. And a very special shoutout to the entertainment staff... they are sunlight in human form. They remembered our son’s name after one interaction when he declared he wanted to be an actor. They crouched down to his eye level, asked about his acting dreams, invited him to dance without hesitation or expectation. Every night. On the beach, on the stage- wherever they performed, he followed front and center. Our son adored each and every one. They created handshakes, taught him magic tricks, had inside jokes, shared a language that transcended words. When we would see any one of them across the resort and my son would light up like it was Christmas morning. “That’s my friend,” he’d say with such pride. He got autographs from each and every one. Hillside has SOUL. They have this incredible way of making every family feel like their family. It’s beautiful, yes. But it’s the people behind the experience—that made it unforgettable. It didn’t just make our holiday magical. It made it matter. And we ALWAYS return to the places that love us like that ❤️

Exceptional service, best resort sea you can find in Turkey, and the renovated rooms are just gorgeous. Everything is organized for kids. Repeat customers for over 10 years, we’ll keep on coming!

We had the best time in Hillside Beachclub. The location is stunning - a beautiful bay with lots of greenery and three pristine beaches. Both adults and kids loved swimming and watching small fishes. It is the service and the people that that makes Hillside truly special. Huge thank you for Anri, Olcen and kids club team for keeping our children happy and entertained - they are still speaking about being on stage for the kids show and still practising Yana Yana song. Huge thanks to Recep, Allatin, Mehmet and Dolgan at the restaurant for always greeting us with a smile and a cup if coffee/wine. We would definitely be back next summer! P.s. while we loved the hotel it’s not what one would consider “traditional luxury” - the family rooms are simple (but very clean) and most dinners are buffet style (though incredible food and selection) so if you are looking for marble in the bathrooms and a la carte dinners this might not be the place for you

Mukemmel bir tatil deneyimi, denizi guzel, servisi guzel ve en onemlisi atmosferi canli. Olmazsa olmaz ve en alisilmis yaz tatili!

Hillside Beach Club is a great resortfor families with kids. If you want a beach vacation in a place surrounded by truly beautiful, serene nature, Hillside Beach Club is the place. We really enjoyed the beaches. The cuisine was also great. One thing to keep in mind: the resort is literally in a hill side. Although there are lifts, be prepared to walk up and down stairs. You will have the best service personal in this hotel.

Best hotel, best beach , best employees ever! But careful: best food means +3kg in one week
