Grand Yazici Club Turban

Loved this hotel . We had a room that was up top end of the grounds it was a walk up hill I struggled with asthma so found it a bit hard due to the heat . We asked if we could change rooms it was no problem to the staff they were brilliant our room in b block was lovely. It’s the only time on holiday I’ve got to the beach around 10 am usually I am there for 8 am but having breakfast going coffee shop just chilling . Beach was amazing beach bar staff were brilliant looked after us . Food was very nice . There’s a quiet bar we’re all your drinks are in crystal glasses that was great . Hotel is immaculate . Staff are so good .

I have just returned from my holiday at the Grand Yazıcı Thermal Club Hotel, and although I am sad that my vacation has come to an end, I can honestly say that I had a wonderful stay.

The hotel is beautifully located in a pine forest, surrounded by lush greenery, colorful flowers, and even fruit trees such as banana, orange, lime, and pomegranate trees. The entire resort feels peaceful, vibrant, and very well maintained.

The food was excellent. There was a wide variety of dishes, especially at dinner, and the desserts were absolutely delicious. Breakfast was a little less varied, but still offered enough choices for everyone. The restaurant was always clean and spacious, and the staff were friendly without being overly attentive.

One of the things that impressed me most was the sandwich bar, which is open from midnight until 6:00 a.m. This is a fantastic service for guests arriving late at night. Fresh sandwiches, soup, and hot tea are available, so nobody has to go to bed hungry. I have stayed in many hotels and have never seen anything quite like this. There is also a 24-hour beach bar serving drinks, which gives the impression that the hotel never sleeps. 😊

Cleanliness throughout the resort deserves special praise. Rooms are cleaned daily, and even the walkways are regularly washed. There is always something happening, so it is impossible to get bored. Guests can enjoy snack bars, coffee and cakes, live performances in the amphitheater, and evening entertainment at the beach bar.

The hotel feels very safe and secure, with security staff at the entrance ensuring that only guests have access to the property. Another highlight is the excellent selection of à la carte restaurants. The Turkish cuisine was simply outstanding. I thought I had already experienced the best Turkish food, but this hotel pleasantly surprised me. Everything we tried was delicious.

If I had to point out one downside, it would be the lack of designated smoking areas. Unfortunately, guests smoke almost everywhere: around the pools, at the outdoor café, snack bars, beach areas, and even in outdoor restaurant sections. As a non-smoker, it can be difficult to find a place to sit and enjoy the fresh air without being surrounded by cigarette smoke, especially when children are nearby.

I would also like to mention one issue regarding housekeeping. The cleaning staff work very hard and do an excellent job, which I truly appreciate. However, there were several occasions when they entered the room without knocking. On the day of our departure, despite check-out being at 12:00 p.m., a housekeeper entered our room at around 10:00 a.m. intending to start cleaning. Similar situations occurred during our stay. Even when the “Do Not Disturb” sign was displayed, it did not always seem to be respected. While I fully understand that housekeeping staff have a schedule to follow, guests’ privacy should also be respected.

Despite these minor concerns, my overall experience was excellent. The thermal pools with their warm water were another fantastic feature and added something truly special to the stay.

Overall, I highly recommend the Grand Yazıcı Thermal Club Hotel. In my opinion, it is one of the best hotels in Marmaris. If I ever return to Marmaris, this hotel will definitely be my first choice.❤️
