Duja Bodrum

Unfortunately I can’t say this hotel matches its 5 star status. There were some positives: - the pool area is great, no fight for sunbeds at all but this may have been because it was September. - the beach area is also really nice and the seafood restaurant at night was absolutely fabulous - the room was cleaned everyday with no problems However, overall we were quite disappointed, especially with the food. The buffet doesn’t change much each day and my partner found that there was never really much meat on offer. I found the selection extremely beige with pasta, fried food, chips, and more carbs on offer every single night. There just wasn’t many appealing options at all. We actually resorted to eating out in Bodrum, which unfortunately was extremely expensive so be aware of high prices. To get to bodrum the hotel try to offer you a transfer of €50 return - do not take it. A yellow cab is 600 Lira / 13 euros. We were only staying for a week and you are only granted 1 meal at one of the restaurants in the hotel, which is a shame. The room was adequate but very worn and tired. There is no iron in the room (they charge extra to iron anything). In general, we did not find the staff friendly at all, and did not at all feel welcome throughout the hotel. The only staff member who was friendly was ayaz at the Starbucks cafe - he works extremely hard on his own. The drinks are also really inconsistent across all the bars. If you’re looking for a “wow” 5 star, this isn’t the one.

My family enjoyed very much excellent service and facilities we definitely book holiday again

The hotel is excellent , very big, has everything in it with amazing views, we liked the village rooms and the walking around, and the working staff were nice. The food is very good, although almost same menu everyday with no variety. Since i suffer from some food allergies, i had some issues with it, even though the food at the hotel labeled with allergy signs, not everything was labeled correctly and clearly, and the staff didn’t always know how to help or answer me.

The location of the resort is great and the staff are welcoming. However, the buildings are tacky and the interior is old. The service is very poor. Although I stayed in the grand suit, the bath was leaking and it hasn’t been fixed until I left the resort, despite complaining. The buffet needs more improvement in terms of the variety of meals and quality. If those are improved, the resort would be the best, given its great location and welcoming staff.

I have stayed more than 5 hotels in Bodrum and Duja hotel provides the best value you can get for your money. The hotel and the rooms are very clean, the food is delicious with a lot of variety and the view from the hotel is gorgeous. Staff was very hospitable and helpful. Special thank you to Sinan for his hospitality and assistance for our every need. Hakan
