I visited the Casa De Maris in May with my husband to celebrate my 50th birthday. From start to finish we had a lovely holiday from the easy check in at 1am to the finish after an 11 night stay. Firstly a special mention too our housekeeper on floor 4, the room was serviced daily, sheets changed and lovely bed arrangements, mini bar was replenished. Always got a smile and hello. Next the fabulous bar and waiting staff, always had a smile and chatted to so many, but a special mention for Emine, Ennis, Emri, Salih, Hakan and we never got the girls name in the lobby bar during the evening, so friendly and always chatted to us. The food and drink is exceptionally good with all the meat cooked to perfection, carved chicken, turkey, lamb, fish and duck and my favourite the Mexican steak. Lunches were great from the pizza corner and snack bar the cheese pide, pizzas burgers and we would go for salad alongside our pizza from the restaurant. The drinks were good, some were served better then others but we enjoyed the cocktails, special milkshakes and so many shots, one in particular the Irish shots made by Guney who was an excellent barman. I have to give a huge special mention to Ahmet who worked tirelessly on the jetty, on his own to add, handing out water, beer and taking drink orders walking with a huge tray and making the drinks to bring down. A lovely lad who has started this season and had some laughs with him. We joined in most of the activities provided by the animation team, and chatted to most and a special mention for Lera. We are a couple who do join in for a laugh and this is part of our holiday and respect some who don't appreciate this sometimes in an adult only hotel. The evening entertainment was hit and miss. Some nights better then others and as some have said some nights only half an hour then nothing else. Some music would have been better. We have been to hotels with more going on and some actually quieter, depends what you want and there is plenty in Marmaris. The best night was the south American dance troupe La Hoca. I was given a fruit platter, bag and lovely letter for my birthday by the hotel. I do wish we had emailed to upgrade to a sea view as we had the land view above the reception which was ok, however we did have a couple of early mornings due to the Cockerells across the road. Nothing some earplugs from the pharmacy didn't sort and we did get used to them and slept through. Our only couple of issues that we had during our stay were, one person from the animationion asking us to write a trip advisor review whilst we were there and a firm no twice, they got the message! Secondly as others have said trying to get a sunbed around the pool was an issue. We did manage most days and get the last 2 at 8am. My husband only joined in the 6am club, as he was up early with his back, so did go down early and couldn't believe how many were taken! We did spend our final days on the jetty which was actually nicer and more p
