Atlantique Holiday Club

We have just returned home from a week at the Atlantique holiday club hotel and here is my review:

We arrived at the hotel at about 9.45pm, checked in and asked where we could get food, we were told we would have to wait until 11pm when we could have soup and toasties or pay for food at one of the restaurants on the beach. I’ve never been to a hotel that doesn’t put food on when you first arrive especially as this is an all inclusive resort. We had to pay for chips as the children were hungry and tired.

Our room was fine, quite small and basic, the balcony was tiny and you can see the people next to you. We didn’t sit out but used it to put wet clothes on to dry. The bedding was a hard sheet, myself and son used a softer thin duvet that was in the cupboard but it didn’t have a cover on it. The rooms were made up everyday but I would have liked it if they would have cleaned to floor. We were with our friends and wanted to be close to each other and had emailed prior to our visit but we were in separate blocks wasn’t a problem it would have just been nice. Our block seemed newer, our friends were very unhappy with their room and asked to move, they were moved quickly but the room did smell quite damp.

The food was good, it is much the same every day but that’s what you expect from an all inclusive and our children enjoyed the food. Around the hotel there are lots of cats and some dogs, when eating outside in the restaurant the cats are roaming around and this can be annoying.

The hotel has mini golf, this was really run down and when we asked to play they had no balls, however they did get some nearer the end of our stay.

The hotel was clean, especially impressed with how clean the pool toilets were.

The entertainment team are fantastic! During the day they are putting on games for adults and children. In the evenings they put on shows and their dancing is absolutely brilliant, they work so hard.

Water park is good but this is also opened to the public but you can go in early and get on the slides quickly.

Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We’ve just returned from a fantastic week in Kusadasi & had a brilliant stay at the hotel. We travelled as a family and, overall, we felt it was really good value for money..you get what you pay for, and for us there was plenty to do, plenty of choice and lots of memories made.

A special mention has to go to the animation team, especially Micah, Ivan, Martina & Emily. They were absolutely fantastic throughout our stay. There was so much going on during the day, with plenty to keep both adults & children entertained, and the evening shows were incredible. They’re all incredibly talented, so friendly & brilliant with the kids.

My children are already desperate to come back next year… although I’m pretty sure that’s more to see the animation team again than anything else! 😂

The evening entertainment was great too. There was a kids’ disco followed by an amazing show, and then the atmosphere continued down at the Sunset Bar on the beach, where the animation team would often join everyone. There was music, DJs, bands & a really lovely holiday atmosphere.

The waterpark was brilliant & there was loads to do around the hotel. We also tried the watersports & had SO much fun. We opted for the ridiculous pink jet car & absolutely loved it! 😂 Definitely one of our holiday highlights.

There were plenty of sunbeds around both the pool & beach, and we never struggled to find one, even at different times throughout the day. The beach & pool areas were both great for spending the day.

Food-wise, it was what you’d expect from an all-inclusive. Lots of choice & something for everyone. We always managed to find something we enjoyed. A particular favourite was the Patisserie, where the ice creams & iced coffees were gorgeous and the pastries were lovely. The pancakes from the snack bar near the beach were also SO good! 🥞

Our room was a ground-floor room & was quite small, but the cleaners were amazing & kept it spotless throughout our stay. The only downside for us was the beds - they were quite hard, and unfortunately the small sofa bed was especially hard. If we returned, we would definitely consider paying to upgrade our room.

We also have to mention Guest Relations, who were fantastic. They arranged balloons, towel animals & sweet treats in our room for my son’s 10th birthday, which was such a lovely surprise & something we really appreciated 🎈🍬

Another special mention to Ramazan (Slim Shady), the photographer, who was so friendly & professional. He made us feel really comfortable & we loved the photos and the memories he captured for us.

The hotel also arranged a taxi for us to visit the port, which took around 20 minutes due to traffic. It was definitely worth doing - there are loads of shops, markets, restaurants & plenty to look around, so it’s a great option if you fancy getting out and exploring Kusadasi.

The staff in general were friendly & helpful throughout our stay, and we never felt short of things to do.

Would we return? Absolutely. We’d definitely pay to upgrade our room next time, but other than that, we had a brilliant holiday. The kids would happily return tomorrow if they could! 😂

Thank you to everyone who made our stay so enjoyable, especially the animation team. You helped make our holiday & created some really special memories for us. 🤍

Good value for money, lots to do, great entertainment & a fantastic family atmosphere. We’d definitely recommend it. ✈️☀️
