Product Details

Pool

We arrived on the 28th April at 2 in the morning got shown to our room very quickly. Room was OK bit outdated and not the cleanest ,but didn't bother us as wouldn't be spending much time in there. Went to the beach bar for some food the next day very friendly staff and drinks were quick to be served  but the food was terrible. Cold,dry and flys all over the food. Went to dinner that night the food was dry and bland couldn't get a seat and took ages for the waiters to come over and ask what you would like to drink . But they were ever so busy and always polite. We went again the next night and was the same so never returned and ate out. The pool bar did fresh food in the afternoon like burgers pizza chips ice cream waffles and this was lovely couldn't fault it. We had the cleaners do our room every other day, and we always left a tip as they work hard but never had any towels left so had to go to reception as no one ever answered the phone. Mini bar was always topped up with water , Fanta  and coke . The beach was unbelievably beautiful but be prepared to be hasseled by people about trips and tattoos . They give you a towel card when you arrived  I said I didn't want one as have my own towel  I had to pay 10 euros on check out as I didn't provide my towel card . I explained I didn't get one but they was having none of it . Most guests are german and all the staff speak german . Bus stop outside the hotel and cheap to get to side and manavgat.

Not so Good

We visited Alba Queen for a short stay from 28th March 2025. This was our 5th stay at this hotel and we are looking forward to our next visit very soon.
The hotel is kept spotlessly clean, both inside and around the grounds and the hard working staff are  welcoming and friendly throughout the hotel
 In the restaurant, the food is exceptional. There is always a vast choice of dishes at every meal and  the food beautifully presented too. It is good to see chefs walking around the buffet to check on the availability and presentation.
 Special thanks to Ulas, Ali and Hamdi who looked after us so well each day.
Although this was the very start of the season and the weather was quite mixed, the animation crew arranged activities throughout the day and entertainment  each evening.
The swimming pool was pretty cold due to low overnight temperatures and a heavy downpour, but we still managed a swim each day and some of the younger guests were braving the water slides.
Although we didn't use the beach on this visit, we have used it many times previously. It is perfect for families, with soft golden sand and shallow sea. Lunches ,drinks and ice cream with waffles are served at the beach bar which is set above the beach behind a long sloping lawn with swinging hammocks and sunbeds.
Once again thank you to everyone at Alba Queen for making our stay so enjoyable.

Our 5th stay at Alba Queen.

I visited the hotel to make a booking laterin the year. I was dealt with by the Guest Relations Manager Oznur.
What a wonderful lady, who devoted her time, to help me with my booking.
If the rest of the hotel staff are has competant, and devoted to their jobs has she is, then I am sure it will be a great vacation,
Thank you Oznur

A wonderful professional

Just returned from a lovely 10 day holiday at Alba Queen hotel and would definitely recommend this hotel.

We arrived late at night and were greeted by a lovely man on reception who checked us in, we made our way to the rooms and were struggling to work the air con so the luggage boy was very helpful and showed us ( balcony door must be closed and there is a slight delay when turning it on if the balcony has been open). We were happy to find they did a midnight snack with just a couple of good options, bread, cheese, eggs etc. 

There is lots of information around the hotel saying it was forbidden to reserve sun loungers before 8am, although there were plenty of sun loungers people were often poolside before 8am. The hotel provides you with a card to exchange for a towel to use, which can be changed daily between 8 and 12 at the wellness centre. 

Rooms were very clean and spacious with a free minibar containing water, fanta, sprite which was refilled daily. Pool was nice and large and it was kept very clean around the pool and bin areas. 

Meals really exceeded our expectations with lots of choice at every meal. Fresh omelettes for breakfast, you could eat lunch at the main restaurant which was a buffet or the pool or beach bar which was a menu to order from. You could order pizzas, burgers, noodles, chicken nuggets, chips etc. Ice creams acailable at the pool bar and beach bar 2-4pm and waffles in the beach bar 2-4pm. Evening meal was buffet style but always lots of choice and all the meals were lovely. We didn't eat at the a la carte restaurants due to the main restaurant being so good. Drinks in the restaurants were table service and all the waiters and waitresses went above and beyond with service, especially Akmet who really looked after us during our stay, preparing a table for us and memorising all our drinks orders. Akmet never let our glasses get empty, he is a real credit to the hotel. 

Checkout was 12 o clock and unfortunately we were unable to keep our rooms gor late check out but the wellness centre had shower facilities we could use. Safes in the room were 2 euros a day. There were some good shops in the hotel, all reasonably priced and friendly staff. 

The hotel is located a couple of minutes walk to the beach where there is a private area for the hotel with some self serve machines for drinks. Water sports were availablr on the beach which we did and really enjoyed (parasailing, speed boat ride and the sofa).  We hot the dolmus outside the hotel to Side which was 2 euros each, about 30 minutes away from the hotel. There are plenty of shops near the hotel if you come out of the hptel and turn left, some great bag and clothes shops but don't forget to haggle!

Fantastic holiday
