Numa Bay Exclusive Hotel

Amazing stay family vacation especially enjoyed the piano bar Rabia and Mustafa were amazing cocktails atmosphere and service was first class xx

We recently stayed at Numa Bay and overall had a good holiday. The hotel is very clean — genuinely impressive considering the number of guests — and the staff throughout were friendly and helpful. The Guest Relations team were particularly good.

The beach and sea are excellent. There are rocky shallower areas where you can swim with the fish, plus a jetty with deeper water and plenty of fish for the kids to snorkel around. There's also a warm, shallow section around 3–3½ft deep, which is great for younger children.

The pools are nice but smaller than expected. We had no real problem finding sunbeds, although some guests were reserving them before the permitted 8am.

The biggest disappointment for us was the cocktails. Most of the bars served very poor cocktails. The piano bar was the exception and did much better cocktails, although it gets busy. The pool bar was average, and the entertainment bar really needs improving.

The food was 50/50. There was always something to eat, but it could be repetitive and inconsistent. The snack area had plenty of choice — doner, chicken wraps, wings, pizza, chips etc. — although in temperatures approaching 38°C we often preferred eating inside.

Our room experience was mixed. We'd booked a Superior Family Room so the two girls could have their own room and bathroom, but were initially given a different family room. After speaking to reception, we were moved into the correct room two days later. Once there, the room itself was lovely, with a comfortable bed and good shower. The major issue was storage — there was so little that we lived out of our suitcases for the whole holiday. The room also appeared very new, with a few finishing touches still needed. No problems with noise, though, and we had a great pool/sea view.

One hidden gem: down by the beach bar is a little hut where two women make traditional Turkish bread. We only discovered it around day seven, but it was probably the best daytime snack we had — definitely worth trying!

Entertainment was 50/50, with some good and some not so good.

Would we return? No. We didn't have a bad holiday, but having experienced Numa Bay once, we'd prefer to try somewhere different rather than have the same experience a second time.

There are plenty of positives here — cleanliness, beach, sea and staff in particular — but for us, the poor cocktails, average food and a few other issues mean we'd choose somewhere else next time.

Always a brilliant time and amazing drinks at the beautiful lobby piano bar 🎹 🍸 Ozgur, Rabia, Mustafa, Hilal all amazing , we are loving coming here for a pre dinner drink or 2! And then back later, thank you 🥰♥️
