One of the worst hotel . Don't waste your money for this 1-2 stars hotel. I wrote so long review, but the site said some error. If you eat meat and like a grill, you should wait for about 20 min, because they start preparing it when they open the doors for the lunch and dinner. The breakfast was the same for 5 days. The lunch is also the same. I went to the market and buy watermelon and grapes, because in the season of them, they are missed in the menu in this hotel. If you think you will eat gusleme, kunefe or some other Turkish dishes, you have to go to the city and buy it. If you drink espresso coffee, so it is almost mission impossible for this city, not only for this hotel. You will drink only instant coffee. The 2 good things in this hotel are beds and airayn. I read so many reviews before chossing this hotel, but we don't think it will be the worst hotel which we have ever seen and been there. I though, OK it is not 5 stars, but maybe it is 4 or 3 stars, but the hotel is between 1 or 2 stars. . .

Ok only. Buffet too crowded. Not enough food choices. Low to average food quality. Desserts very poor quality. Snacks & breakfast same choices everyday. Pool is big. Too toooo noisy in the rooms at night (until late night) if there is a celebration like a wedding on the hotel grounds. Rooms are cleaned well.. .

Nice hotel but service could be better. I stayed at the hotel during the Easter holidays with my husband and the hotel was one of the best I've seen in the area. The hotel is close to the nearest town which is Altinkum which is only 15-20 walk to the beach/town. The hotel staff seemed to be a bit inconsistent with the service as we were not sure when housekeeping takes place as they would arrive at various times during the day, sometimes late afternoon. The room service was good but they didn't seem to have a menu so we would only have the advice of the staff of what was available. The reception desk was not always manned so there were several times when we couldn't speak to anyone and had to keep redialing. Overall the hotel was clean and had good facilities like the spa, gym and Turkish baths which were amazing. I know from the Turkish residents and businesses that we were a bit early for the tourist season so I'm not sure if that is why the service was not what I'd expect for a 5 star hotel. We are going back to Turkey in September and we will stay there again because it is one of few 5 star hotels in the area. Hopefully it will be a more attentive experience during this time of year.. .

Not a good experience. We spent one night at Garden of Sun as we wanted to see the Temple of Apollo. Would suggest that to visit the temple do this as a day trip from either Izmir, Bodrum or Selcuk, no need to stay in Didim. Garden of Sun was a very poor hotel, wall paper torn off bedroom walls, bed linen dirty and old (pillow case was off white an falling apart), bathroom was moldy and everything appeared to be falling apart. The hotel was a reasonable walk from the tourist area of Didim and was surrounded by litter and empty paddocks. Communication with staff was a challenge. The hotel was full of mainly young Bulgarians, Russians and English, who looked like they had stepped from the set of Jordy Shores. I think the 80's music from the pool and the wrist band they gave us at check in for the "all inclusive concept" should have been a giveaway.. .

Nice Hotel. Overall it was very good indeed. Staff were very attentive. The only complaint I would have is that the bathrooms were not cleaned properly and the dining room was a bit too dark.. .
