Wonderful hotel spoilt by lack of adult only areas.
This hotel is fantastic so we have visited it many times and had hoped to continue our visits. The rooms are excellent,spotlessly clean. The grounds are well maintained and again spotlessly clean as are all the toilets dotted around. ALL the staff are wonderful,but much busier this year than previous years so not always available to chat and make friends. The food in all venues is of very high quality and with huge choices,the à la cartes were far more difficult to get hold of and also stressful to try and book. Never been a problem in the past. There are many of us that have become good friends from the Netherlands,Germany as well as the uk as we meet at the same time. This year has NOT been the same experience and we are all questioning our faith in the hotel to provide us with a fully relaxing holiday. I have worked with children all my working life as well as rearing 2 highly successful sons. When I holiday it’s to get rest and relaxation!!! The hotel has concentrated on families and children. There are many areas for babies,toddlers,children and teenagers BUT NOWHERE for just adults. I couldn’t hear my partner at lunch due to screaming crying toddlers,tripping over baby buggies. Nowhere to have a quiet drink on the terrace bar, lifts full of baby buggies. Nowhere to relax and have a quiet swim. There was a lot of disquiet from many of us regular clients. The management needs to provide ADULTS only areas to relax and also have the deep pool for children over a certain age. There are 2 areas with graduated entry for younger ages. The hotel is striving to be top notch but ignoring adult couples and older retired adults will not enhance its status but drive us away. It has saddened me to make these comments as it is our favourite hotel.

Lovely resort but pools too cold
Overall we had a lovely family holiday. The quality of the food and drinks was very high and the resort was beautifully maintained. All the staff were so friendly and the service was always excellent. Unfortunately I would not return due to the temperature of the swimming pools. My baby was unable to stay in the water for more than 2 minutes as she was shivering. It was a shame that a holiday that should be based round being at a pool was not possible. Other minor negatives are that the wifi is poor throughout the hotel and always cuts out and the toiletries are a shampoo/body wash.

Best experience
It was a great experience It is my first time in Antalya and sure first time in Lara Barut Collection Our stay exceeded my expectations and the price worth it Much thanks to Melike and Yadigar for their kind assistance which make our stay smooth and joyful
Fabulous holiday
We’ve just returned from a 7 night stay and we loved it. The food, the drinks and the cleanliness were all second to none. The staff are amazing at making the experience even better, always wanting to please everyone. We had 3 al la carte meals and all of them were delicious. We loved the 4pm dj sundowner set at the beach, and the atmosphere was great throughout the hotel. We had a swim up room and our house keeper kept it immaculate and was so friendly. The 24 hour al la carte restaurant at the lagoon had a fantastic menu and it was lovely to go there got breakfast instead of the main buffet for a change. We’re 2 adults in our 50s with no children and we’d recommend coming here to other adults of the same age - mainly because of the restaurant choices and drink choices. There are so many hotels in turkey that are fabulous but a lot do tend to cater for families rather than couples and this hotel has a great balance for all guests. Thanks Barut group - we will be back 🥰

A fabulous place to stay!
This hotel surpassed all our expectations! Its huge and has everything you can think of. We loved the Moon Party with the fire dancers. And being able to dance until the early hours in the open air nightclub on the beach each night was a truly memorable experience. The DJs were brilliant, and thank you to Cihan for looking after us with the best cocktails! If we thought we were going to relax during the day we were wrong! The water park and animation team kept us busy with pool games, beach volleyball, archery, shooting and dancing, and a special thank you to Gamze who instantly made us feel welcome, and to Buket, Furkan, Bugra, Martin and Amigo for keeping us smiling :) Thank you also to the wonderful waiting staff, especially to Cayhan who was so kind, funny and attentive and to the lovely Gamze, as well as the head of the adult area and the beautiful young lady with him (sorry we didn't catch your names) in the main restaurant. This hotel has something for everyone, far too many to mention, whether you want a relaxing holiday or 24/7 fun! Thank you! :)
