Aquaworld Belek ★★★★★

The large complex of Aquaworld Belek stands proudly on the seafront, dotted with palm trees and verdant greenery. A beautiful aquarium sits just behind the reception, setting you up for that related holiday vibe. The most eye-catching aspect of this sea-inspired hotel are the expansive pool areas for both adults and kids, 11 pools in total, mushroom top showers, the thrilling water slides and cosy loungers from where to sojourn in the sun.

Rooms are bright and spacious, each with a balcony overlooking the green grounds or far-reaching sea. We sat on the little wooden table and chairs outside our cosy room with a refreshment from our minibar in the evening revelling in the picturesque palette of reds and pinks from the setting of the sun. On arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with a treat of local wine and fresh fruit in our room.

What will you do with your day? Sit under the warm sun by one of the many outdoor pool areas, experience total relaxation in the sauna, work out at the gym or explore the neighbouring attractions such as The Garden of Tolerance. The hotel also features tennis, table tennis, a playground for the little ones, pool and darts. Make the most of the exhilarating water sports you have at your fingertips, from windsurfing to canoeing.

Taste a rich wine at dinner, where local and international dishes are served at one of the a la carte restaurants. At night an outdoor stage lights up with entertainment, music and a kid’s disco. Whether you have come for a poolside stay, a sandy beach, daily entertainment or good food, you have it all at the Aquaworld Belek.
