Faros Premium Beach Hotel

We booked a sea view room for a week end of June as a couple, all inclusive. Overall I'd rate the experience 4/5 stars. The staff around the hotel were friendly and attentive, the waiters and waitresses were very good. Unfortunately the Reception staff let them down as they were not very welcoming or friendly. I never seen any of them smile once. The animations team were very friendly and encouraged everyone to take part in activities. The pool was disappointing, it is small and the same depth the whole way round, for me 5'6ft I could not touch the floor in the pool. The sea was very nice, I would recommend sea shoes as it is rocky. The views are stunning from the hotel, I have put some photographs. The food was good quality and tasty, although after a week it was very repetitive. There is a good drinks selection with the all inclusive package. The hotel could do with some more lifts as you will often wait ages for an available lift. The room was large and mostly clean. We were given fresh towels everyday which was great. The mattress is very, very hard and uncomfortable and you only get 1 pillow. The balcony is just the right size to sit on, and the view from the sea view rooms is stunning. The hotel is in a good location, in walking distance to a lot of shops and right on the sea front. The air conditioning is very good. The chairs at the beach bar were very uncomfortable. Whilst we wanted to stay and watch the entertainment, we mostly found ourselves leaving early as the chairs were not comfortable. We saw other people bringing cushions for the chairs as they were so uncomfortable.

The wife and I have just returned from our holiday to Turkey and stayed in the Faros. Staff are attentive friendly and nothing is a problem. The chefs give you plenty of choice of good quality food. The entertainment is what you expect on the circuit but most enjoyable was the bingo caller 5 and 4 fivety to four…. The rooms are basic and could do with a spruce up during closed season but in general a good hotel Drinks are by the eye measure so need to be careful if your not a big drinker views from the balcony were stunning. You do get hassled from the vendors but it’s all part of Turkey. Would we go to the hotel again ??? Yes. Not for everyone but it done what it needed to do for our holiday.

We spent 2 weeks at Faros Hotel and had a wonderful relaxing holiday. Our room was on the top floor with magnificent views of the sea and a large balcony. The food was wonderful and always a varied selection and the staff were very attentive. Although the hotel is a bit tired and could do with refreshening in places, we found everywhere to be clean and staff friendly. The air conditioning was directly blowing on to the bed which isn't ideal but did cool the room quickly. Unfortunately, the entertainment wasn't very entertaining and started late in the evening and the bar chairs were too uncomfortable to remain on for the evening. The entertainment staff were a bit bullish and as we've paid thousands of pounds for a relaxing holiday from our busy lives, it's really not appreciated to be called lazy every day for resting in the sun and not wanting to partake in the questionably yoga session. Overall though, apart from entertainment, a wonderful holiday.
