A huge thank you to the animation team for making our holiday so fun and unforgettable!
The team is incredibly
friendly, energetic, and positive. Every day was full of exciting activities, fun games, and amazing evening shows. You created such a great atmosphere throughout the hotel and always knew how to keep everyone entertained. Thank you for your energy, enthusiasm, and wonderful mood!
You are truly the heart of the hotel! 🥰🥰🥰
We arrived Saturday 16th August. We're still here on a 7 day family holiday (2 adults and 2 boys aged 9 & 7). We read reviews before coming out and thought the near worse. So we braced ourselves for something dreadful. Well, we were more than pleasantly surprised More than! It is absolutely awesome here. So many nice clean pools. If you're in the lake house area, 24/7 swimming. Staff are great and provide a no stress service, everywhere. With an on-sitte aqua park, and night time small fair ground (bumper cars and Mary Rose are free as well as some smaller rides). Half way in the holiday, and we have bit even touched all the pools and slides, not the night entertainment,.or all the bars. Big hotel, but not crowded (except for meal times in the main buffet area).
Only gutted that they don't seem to show any sports on TV (EPL season kicks off ;)
We will more than likely be considering coming back to here in Side or try Selectum in Belek
First of all, we have been visiting Türkiye for many years and have stayed in many different hotels. From the moment we arrived, the welcome at Selectum Family Resort Side was excellent. The reception staff were smiling, friendly, and very helpful, which made a fantastic first impression.
The hotel grounds are beautiful, with plenty of greenery and a relaxing atmosphere. We would also like to give special thanks to Hüseyin at the pool area, who was always attentive, kind, and professional. We would also like to mention the lifeguards at the pools, who were always friendly, welcoming, and attentive, helping create a safe and enjoyable atmosphere throughout our stay.
We have stayed in many hotels where the food was only average, but here the food is diverse, fresh, and delicious. There is something for everyone every day. We tried many different dishes, and everything was very tasty.
The beach is excellent, very close to the hotel, clean, and easy to access. There are several restaurants and snack bars throughout the resort, so it is impossible to go hungry.
For families with children, the aquapark is fantastic and provides hours of fun. We also really enjoyed the gaming room. We also had a massage at the SPA centre, and it was excellent—very relaxing and professionally done. We highly recommend it to anyone looking to unwind during their holiday.
The only areas we feel could be improved are the rooms and some of the equipment and facilities. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but they are somewhat outdated and would benefit from renovation. Some of the equipment and facilities also feel a little old and could be modernised. In our opinion, these improvements would make the overall experience even better. This is meant as friendly and constructive feedback, as everything else exceeded our expectations.
Thank you to the entire Selectum Family Resort Side team for making our holiday so pleasant. We truly appreciate your hospitality and would be happy to return in the future. Keep up the great work! 👍
This was the best vacation we have ever had. The hotel is absolutely amazing. The territory is very large, beautifully maintained, with stunning nature, lovely fountains, and a wonderful atmosphere everywhere.
We stayed in a Lake House room, and honestly, there are no words to describe it. Waking up every day to such a beautiful view and having a pool right outside was simply fantastic.
The rooms were cleaned every day and always kept spotless. The food was delicious and very diverse, with many different restaurants and snack bars to choose from. We were especially impressed by the 24-hour café inside the hotel. The pizzas, burgers, and other food were absolutely amazing.
All employees were friendly, professional, and always willing to help. Every evening there were entertainment activities and attractions, which made the holiday even more enjoyable. Our child had an unforgettable time and came home with so many wonderful memories.
A huge thank you to the entire staff for making our stay so special and unforgettable. This is the first time we are already planning to return to the same hotel, and we truly hope to come back again soon.
Highly recommended! ❤️🌴☀️
Bigs thanks to Burulai.😊😊
We recently stayed at this resort as a family with children, and overall, we had a very positive experience.
The resort is huge and offers plenty of dining options. There are many restaurants and snack corners throughout the property, so you don’t need to visit the main restaurant for lunch every day, which is very convenient.
The rooms are good, clean, and spacious. However, the beds and pillows could be more comfortable, as they were one of the weaker aspects of our stay.
A river separates the resort from the beach. At first, this may seem unusual, but it did not appear to affect the sea water, and the river itself looked clean. Families with children should be aware that the beach has a rocky entrance into the sea, so extra caution is recommended, especially for younger kids.
The SPA facilities include one sauna, a Turkish bath (hamam), and an indoor swimming pool. There is also a VIP SPA area with a separate steam room, sauna, and hamam, but access is reserved for guests who purchase massage treatments at an additional cost.
The highlight of the resort is definitely the Luna Park. Most of the attractions are free of charge, which is fantastic for families. Only the trampolines and some electric children’s cars require an extra payment (around €10 or $12).
Overall, as a traveler with children, I would recommend this resort. It offers plenty of entertainment, dining options, and family-friendly facilities that make for an enjoyable vacation.
