Tui Blue Xanthe Resort & Spa

Good location, with access to beach sun loungers allocated to the hotel. From reception staff, to restaurant staff all were friendly, professional & Helpful. A special thank you to Erdal in the restaurant. Despite our late flight & arrival at hotel after midnight, we were provided with a mini hot buffet - thank you so much! In the room - Mini bar with soft drinks & water daily as part of the all inclusive it’s a bonus and much appreciated. Loungers in good condition and plenty for all ( End of April visit). Two negatives - 1) initial room allocated ceiling height was a problem, due to architectural design ( constant hitting head against lower part of ceiling, not the staff fault, we gave it a try for 2 nights!!); but thank you moving us to another room. 2) in the beach - Although no to do with Xanthe hotel, the empty space adjoining to Xanthe hotel loungers, as it was abandoned, it was very unkempt and needed sweeping and all rubbish collect. We would definitely return to this resort and will bring the family 😊

It was really really good! The food was really amazing, the chamber was perfect. It was cleaned every day and they cleaned it really good. The restaurant a la carte was also great. The spa and the gym are great. There is always something to do or see and the sea is on a walking distance, there are many pools and slides. The animation team are great and Samet and Irem are really kind and Samet leads great activities!

This was our second time visiting Türkiye, having previously been in October 2015. This time we went with our 6 year old son his first holiday abroad. We arrived at the hotel at approximately 2pm we were greeted by a very friendly reception team, unfortunately can’t recall any of their names but they were all very friendly and welcoming. We was provided our wrist bands and told to go and grab lunch while they dealt with checkin which we thought was a nice touch. We had a quick look but decided we weren’t all that hungry having eaten on the plane. We returned to reception where our room cards and towel cards were ready for us. We had a room on the ground floor (4108). It was relatively quiet and tucked out the way which was nice. The room could have done with a little lick of paint maybe. But otherwise in good order. The housekeeping team were amazing always keeping the room clean and restocking the inclusive mini bar (soft drinks). We had a very big double bed and a single ‘put up’ bed for our 6 year old. All comfortable. My only real criticism would be the air con which was locked to 24 degrees. Having said that we never felt the need to raise it with reception so couldn’t have been to bed. All the team here, from waiting staff to bar staff couldn’t do enough for you all very friendly and helpful. I’ve seen some comments about the English not receiving good service, I’m not sure how people can come to that conclusion. You have to remember you’re in a foreign country where the native language obviously isn’t English. Perhaps make some effort to learn some basic Turkish instead of criticising the staff for not speaking perfect English. I want to give a special shout out to Ercan from the outside bar who was always exceptional in service and chats. Anther shout out to Sahadet from the inside bar again she was always exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Both of them made the best cocktails and deserve special mention a bonus for their service. Onto the waiting staff although all of them were exceptional a special mention must go to the very tall guy with glasses and his catchphrase‘you’re welcome’. I’m so sorry I didn’t make a note of your name. The food was always of good quality and an exceptional amount of choice each day. All cooked to good quality and plenty of it. It must be good as we’ve booked to come back next year.

Not long back from a week holiday here and was an amazing holiday staff were amazing especially devran and dj semet from the entertainment team they made the holiday soo much more special definitely brothers from another mother and will be friends for life and the staff weee awesome as well alway making sure we were fed and watered we requested a double bed after arriving the same day within a couple of hours always friendly and there for any help needed will definitely be going back soon

What a wonderful hotel, the staff couldn't do enough for us. Dj Samet and gorgeous Devran were exceptional. Reception, bar and staff and dining room staff are also brilliant. There were only a few British families at the hotel but communication wasn't a problem. I would definitely recommend this hotel and hope to come back soon.

We stayed a fortnight at the Tui Blue Xanthe and loved our time there. The most memorable aspect was the very wide choice of food at every meal. For vegetarians the hotel offered the most options of any all-inclusive hotel we've been to. Staff went out of their way to be helpful. Our room was comfortable, although the balcony was small. The hotel has its own section of the beach with sun beds and a beach bar. Side has a surprising amount of Roman remains which we enjoyed visiting. Whilst we were there most of the guests were from young football teams but this wasn't a problem.

Loved our stay at Tui Blue Xanthe!! Had perfect weather, one day it hit 30c!!😅 Hotel was modern and very secure with a security barrier at the end of the pathway to the main road so felt safe. Lovely flowers/plants and greenery all around. Free safe to use and WiFi which worked well in all areas..even the beach! Room: Nice size for 2 people, bed quite firm but we like this so it was comfortable for us with good pillows, towels were of good quality. Mini fridge didn't work at all but i didn't bother to complain as we always got a fresh drink to take back to the room from The Bar. Water pressure and temperature was perfect. Air con was centrally set at 28c!? Literally blew out warm air which wasn't ideal in 23-30c heat throughout the week, could not adjust the temp so I did complain about this at reception but it wasn't really dealt with, so just kepted our balcony door open. Can hear everything from the corridors..kids crying in their roo...early morning risers, I noticed that are big gaps at the bottom of the doors (something needs to be done) as it was ridiculous. Maids were lovely and cleaned our rooms daily, fresh towels and cute art work with Pjs and blankets! Food/drink: Wow I was quite impressed with the food on offer here, my favourite being the donner meat! Daughter loved the spag bol and had we lots of lovely bread loaves to try. Breakfast was good and I didn't miss the English sausage and bacon at all. All colleague's were lovely and friendly in the buffet restaurant. I did feel that I had to wait a while to get offered a drink and most times it was me catching their attention to ask for one at dinner. They had amazing homemade waffles served between 3-4pm outside near the pool with an array of toppings/ice cream to chose from. Beach bar food was fresh and tasty, cocktails weren't the best from here ..I found Ercan made the best cocktails at the pool bar! (such a lovely friendly guy) a credit to the hotel, speaks very good English. Pool/beach: inflatables were allowed here, main pool was cold but refreshing when it was so hot!! My daughter loved the hammocks so spent most of our time on them, I just pulled up a sunbed next to it. I could also watch her on the slides which were great fun! Life guards were friendly. Love love love the fact that the beach is a short stroll from the hotel grounds, a beautiful sandy beach and the sea is quite shallow and actually warm! Animation team were all lovely, we played a game of killer darts. Evening Entertainment was ok, had live bands on 3 nights which were ok but i personally prefer shows. (maybe a games show/magicans) Colombian dance night was the best show!! Just Amazing! Never tried the spa but it did look lovely., could exchange your free towels as often as you wanted here. We had cake biscuits and coffee from the Café which again was spot on. I took lira and sterling to Turkey and they accepted both. Bazzars/restaurants are priced in Euros but when paying on card they con

Just returned from a weeks stay at this lovely hotel. We have had such an amazing time, and I truly can't believe some of the poor reviews on here; they can't be about the same hotel!! We stayed as a family of 6, 3 adults / 3 children, across 3 rooms. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful, aesthetically pleasing, modern, bright, and calming. We all had double/ twin rooms, each of which was modern. Housekeeping service was one of the best we have had; my room was turned down each day, fresh towels, tea/coffee replenished, and mini fridge restocked with water and soft drinks. The room always smelt beautiful, too. We did need to change rooms after a few nights as had noisy neighbours on both sides (only gripe us walls are paper thin!!) But this was resolved in 24 hours. Lots a sunloughers and hammocks to utilise, never had to do a sunlounger dash! Pools are beautiful 😍 so modern and inviting. We did spend our time at the Olympic pool as this was quiet, but kids used the slides most days, which were lots of fun. The lifeguards were great and friendly. Ecran at the pool bar is amazing, always smiling, remembered our 2 coffees and bottle of water! He gas great dad jokes, too. Food at this hotel is great. Would have loved more Turkish food! This was divine, especially the baclava. We all found something we liked. Beach bar was fantastic for lunch too... Yes, this hotel has primarily been geared more towards German / Russian guest however this was never a problem. Some staff do speak basic English but google translates and a few laughs got us through. Another mention is Devran from the Animation team. So friendly and made an effort to speak to each day and make sure we were happy. Even came to say goodbye when we left.. We had a great stay.. test of a good holiday is if we would come back... absolutely, keep up the great work Tui Blue Xanthe 💙
