Product Details

Pool

We are currently staying at the Starlight Resort Hotel, and it has been an incredible experience so far. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by Miss Ece at the reception, whose professionalism and kindness set the tone for our stay. She has been incredibly helpful and made our check-in process seamless.

The food at the resort is absolutely amazing. Every meal has been a culinary delight, with a variety of options that cater to all tastes. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or dinner, we’ve been consistently impressed by the quality and flavor of each dish.

The seaside is breathtakingly beautiful, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. We’ve spent hours soaking in the sun by the crystal-clear water, and it truly feels like paradise.

A special mention to the bar staff at the pool bar, who are some of the friendliest we’ve ever encountered. Their service is always prompt, and they go out of their way to ensure guests are comfortable and well taken care of, making our time by the pool even more enjoyable.

We can’t wait to enjoy the rest of our stay, but so far, this resort has exceeded all expectations!

Fantastic experience

Very good hotel and services. Hotel is placed in a very large area. In the garden there are two hotels an a large number of villas.
The garden has a large fron open to the Mediteran see. Beach with small rocks.
Food and berages served at the testaurants and bars has a normal quality for a 5 stars hotel located in Antalya.

It worth to visit this location! Have a nice holiday!

Nice place to visit with your family.

HOLIDAY FROM HELL!!! Our 2 year old girl catches Hand foot and mouth disease half way through our 11 night stay. I got salmonella poisoning and had severe diarrhoea and cramps all through my last day. Once returned back to UK I was off work for 2 weeks waiting on salmonella clearing up. Our 2 year old was taken to a private hospital which the hotel has a contract with, little did we know the hospital was black listed by our insurance group AXA for communication, and lack of correct procedures. We were held ransom and passport taken upon arrival and not allowed to leave hospital until we paid 3250 euros for 2 nights in hospital. Hospital said it was most likely that our little girl had caught the disease from the swimming pools, we were also told 1 other family had just been discharged from the same hospital that came from Starlight as well. Now if the hotel knows there is a disease in pools there should be notices and closures to give time to clean and prevent further outbreak. Clearly this did not happen. We were asked not to go into any swimming pools once we arrived back to hotel after 3 days, they offered us “executive terrace” to have breakfast lunch and dinner, which is basically just a secluded area away from all the other guests, it’s not any more fancy than the normal dining area, just quiet, my girlfriends birthday was on the Monday the day before our flight and they did organise a free massage for her, and yes it was appreciated. But the lack of ownership and responsibility was beyond a joke, no apology, they just wanted to hide us away and keep us quiet, they didn’t close pool to clean or even make announcement. They would not accept it had came from their pools. We only spent time at the Elephant pool, that was suited for both adults and kids with the kids pool next to it, we honestly never stepped in another pool. I just want to make other families aware of the practices here and be very cautious if you do decide to stay here. And please do not go to a private hospital!! Always ask for state hospital.

BE VERY CAUTIOUS! 2 year old caught Hand, Foot & Mouth in pool, 1 adult got Salmonella poisoning. HOLIDAY FROM HELL

Having stayed at the Starlight twice before I hope this review helps others.

We first stayed at the Starlight in 2018 & 2019 when my daughter was under 10.  We really enjoyed everything about the Starlight, it felt safe & secure and there was lots of choice of what to do. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we had a great time each time we visited (we stayed for 10 days each time)

This time we arrived around 11pm (which had been the case on previous visits) and immediately knew something had changed.  Previously we had been greeted by hotel staff who took our cases ready to be transported to the room, there was even a lovely welcome drink on arrival.  This time there was no one around and we found ourselves waiting in a smoky (even though the hotel is none smoking) reception for around 15 minutes before someone appeared to check us in, who then told us to take our cases back outside for the bel-boy to take us to our room.  10 minutes later I went back in to request the bel-boy as no one had come to collect us.

The service at mealtimes and at the bars was terrible too, it felt like they were almost doing their best to avoid serving a drink.  My previous visits have been in August when the hotel was really busy and the service was 10 times better, the hotel this time was much quieter, but the service was shocking.

The food was good, there was always a good choice, it was fresh and tasty. 
The rooms were fine a little basic and in need of some updating but ok (not 5 star) Our mini bar was topped up a couple of times not daily and we had to request toilet rolls.

I don’t think I would have written this review if the rest of the holiday was different, but I feel that it needs to be pointed out.

When looking for a holiday earlier this year and the Starlight came up as an option, we had no problem booking again based on our previous experience.  This time there would be myself, my partner, my daughter (15) and stepdaughter (16) (who had never been previously).

Like I said at the start the complex felt very safe and we would have no problem in letting our daughters explore a little by themselves in the daytime on the complex.  They loved this idea, the thought of being able to nip to the water park or grab lunch when they wanted it was ideal for them.  

The reason I have mentioned my daughters ages a couple of times is also the reason I would not attend this hotel with them again.  The waiting on and bar staff were obsessed with them, staring at them, trying to talk to them, asking for their Instagram and snapchat names was completely unacceptable.  I witnessed them doing the same with most of the younger woman there, they seemed to think they were on holiday themselves trying to get the attention of girls rather than doing their job.  Please teach your staff that they are at work and not on a dating app.

 Night times during the entertainment the whole place was very intimidating, it no longer felt family friendly, the number of times different bar staff would wander past to look at the girls was really disturbing.

I actually spoke with one of the bar men and told them not to talk to my daughter again as they were 15 & 16, unfortunately this didn’t seem to stop them.

No longer a 5 star & take note if travelling with teenage girls.

Hotel staff is friendly and drinks are ok. The only problem with the hotel is the quality of food. For an instance it seems there are variety of food but all has similar taste and the quality of the food is in extremely low. We were there for a symposium and nearly everyone had stomach problems.

Bad quality food
