Reviews
“End of the season Holiday Review”
It’s a long transfer from the airport so consider this with little ones. All staff were lovely and very helpful. Our room was amazing with double balconies. The beach was clean and the sea was beautiful to swim in - no surprise that it has a blue flag status. The hotel has a lovely Spa area with pool and there are various outlets on the lower floor if you run out of anything or need a bit of jewellery or a tattoo. The Patisserie does the best coffees and hot chocolate and I got my hot drinks from there. I always try to be balanced in these reviews as I read them myself before choosing which hotels I stay in so a bit honesty is required. The hot food just wasn’t! We tried eating at different times, tried all variations and at the end of two we were ready for home. Unfortunately the à la cart was very disappointing also. On a positive I didn’t put on any holiday weight!

“Disappointing Experience – Not Worthy of 5 Stars”
The hotel itself is beautiful, with clean rooms, lovely grounds, and nice pool areas. The beach also offers good water sports. Unfortunately, the food and some of the services really let our stay down. Food: Extremely disappointing The food was terrible. The same cold dishes were served day after day, with practically nothing new throughout our seven-day stay. The snack bar food was barely edible, and it was unbelievable that in a hotel advertised as five-star, the food was so poor. Some days, I even went to bed hungry because there was nothing I wanted to eat. I also saw many guests ordering takeaway food, which says a lot about the quality of the hotel’s restaurants. The restaurant staff were often miserable and unwelcoming. For me, the food was nowhere near the standard expected of a five-star hotel, and it seriously affected our holiday. Entertainment: Very basic The animation team and entertainment were very basic. I don’t know if this was because it was the end of the season, but guests pay for their stay regardless of the time of year. The entertainment should therefore maintain a reasonable standard throughout the season. Spa experience: Uncomfortable and concerning Unfortunately, our experience with the spa was particularly uncomfortable. A man approached us on the beach offering massages, and my friend and I booked treatments with him. We discussed the available packages, and I specifically told him that I had chosen a different package. He said that was fine, but when we arrived for our treatments, my friend and I ended up receiving the same package, despite having agreed on different ones. When he asked me afterwards how the massage was, I explained that it was not the treatment I had requested. He apologised and offered me a complimentary massage for the following day, which I accepted. However, when my friend and I returned, there were three men at the reception area. We were directed to a VIP room containing two massage beds and a large bed in the middle. We were told to undress and put our clothes on the bed. I asked who would be performing the massages and was told that the man I had previously spoken to, whom I had never seen before, and the man from reception would be doing them. I immediately felt uncomfortable with the situation. I asked whether the same female therapists who had treated us the previous day could perform the massages instead, but we were told they were busy. I decided I did not want to continue, so we left. The entire situation felt strange and made me very uncomfortable. Being directed into that room, with three men involved in the situation and no female therapists available, left me feeling uneasy and questioning whether I could feel safe at the hotel. Overall experience Although the rooms were clean and the hotel grounds and pools were lovely, the terrible food, basic entertainment, and especially the uncomfortable spa experience completely overshadowed the positive aspects of our stay. After what happened at the spa, I no longer felt secure in the hotel. A holiday should be a time to relax and feel safe, not a time to worry about the situations you might find yourself in. In my opinion, this hotel does not deserve a five-star rating. The food standards need significant improvement, the entertainment could be much better, and the spa needs to ensure that guests feel comfortable, respected, and safe at all times. Sadly, I would not return or recommend this hotel based on my experience.

“Not great”
Just back from a week All Inclusive Plus, family holiday - 2 adults and 2 kids (6 and 10). We had a family room, which had 3 single beds in the main area, and separate double bedroom. Access to balcony from both rooms. The room was fine, basic but clean. We found the beds really comfortable, though the cover to sleep under was thin and not the best quality. Mini bar had some soft drinks and water. Soft drinks were only replaced once during the week, and water replaced most days, though not all. Would expect more for All Inclusive Plus. Room cleaning seemed ok, and was done daily. There were a couple of days where dirty cups/glasses weren't taken away, which is pretty basic. The main pool was really nice. Water was cold, but not sure what people expect, especially in October. Didnt bother us. Loads of sunbeds and the pool was always quiet so loads of room for the kids to swim and play. The water park was also really good, with a great selection of slides. The kids loved it. Food and drink, I'd describe as mixed. There was an area near the pools, where fresh Turkish pancakes were made between 12 and 4 every day (weather permitting). These were delicious, and had long queues most days. Buffet selection was limited. It felt like they were winding down for the end of season. Some dishes were tasty, if you timed it well so they were hot. Other times, dishes were luke warm at best, even at the start of service. The snack bar served really tasty pizzas. These were kept covered, but most food here lay uncovered and was surrounded by flies. There were various sauces for pancakes here, and these had dead flies lying in them all day, so not very appealing. We tried the Italian a la carte one night, and it was also a let down. They presented our son with a cake for his birthday, which was a nice touch. However, the food was pretty poor, other than the breads/salads served at the start of the meal. Both the main dining area and a la cartes felt very dated, and could do with being smartened up. Drinks wise, we were really disappointed. Limited branded drinks, and only around 6 cocktails on the menu which you couldn't deviate from. Poor ingredients (bottled lemon 'juice' rather than fresh), and mocktails were pretty much just different sugar syrups mixed together. Most drinks served in plastic or paper cups (which leaked). Didn't feel like luxury All inclusive plus. Weather was great on the whole, 2 days where it rained torrentially. We used the indoor pool those days which was a nice option. Again, it was a little tired looking, and the roof leaked loads from the rain outside. Overall, it just wasn't the experience we expected. The hotel just had a bit of an odd feel....it took us 2 days to work out which stairs we could use, as the lifts were really busy. One staircase had 'Staff only' on the door in the lobby, and the other had 'Emergency Exit'! Turned out you just do what you want and use either. We also tried to get use of an iron/ironing board and was told no, but they could provide an ironing service for a small fee...I know you don't go on holiday to iron, but would have been nice to have an ironed shirt to wear. There was also a few shops on the bottom level of the hotel, managed independently to the actual hotel. They had the usual snacks, fridge magnets etc, and prices were reasonable...we didnt use the tattoo parlour but it seemed surprisingly popular! Games room was also an additional charge, which we didn't expect. You're paying a lot of money to stay there, and then to have to fork our more for a game of pool etc seems a bit of a joke. We enjoyed our week overall, but that was mainly down to the pool area and the weather, than anything else. We wont be returning to the Venosa in a hurry.

“Such a beautiful resort”
Overall such a beautiful hotel! Would definitely recommend. However, definitely consider going in season. We came here for 10 days, we had 7 days of pure sunshine and 3 days raining (all day) obviously cannot be helped at all. Entertainment and Activities Rado and Dimples are the friendliest, funniest and most kindest people ever. Such funny people to be around. On rainy days, we watched films and had a laugh. Good evening entertainment including bingo, music quizzes and discos. Cleanliness The hotel has been SPOTLESS! Even in pouring rain staff were out cleaning the floors etc. Room cleanliness is good. We did have to remind the cleaners to stock our fridges and replace towels but once asked, was sorted there and then. Going out To be completely honest, you do not need to leave the resort, there is shops including clothes and bags etc, games / arcades for the children, a spa (more on that later) and a nightclub open 12pm - 2am. If you like to explore then you can jump on the dolamus bus (40 Turkish Lira). Sabia Spa THE MOST INCREDIBLE SPA I HAVE EVER BEEN TO! Due to it being out of season we brought a package that included a traditional Turkish bath and 3 massages. The masseuses were INCREDIBLE. All spa staff were so friendly and approachable. Again, if you go in season, probably best to book when you arrive. Food Food was good, typical buffet style, towards the end of our 10 days and them shutting for the year, the food did get quite bad, where we then ordered a dominoes pizza (4 pizzas for £16) on the last night. The restaurants staff were amazing especially Raziye, the most beautiful soul, who reserved our table every night as we were a group of 11. Raziye went above and beyond to ensure we had everything that we needed. She is a credit to Venosa Overall, would come here again however, in season as lots more to do, when speaking to the entertainment staff, they throw pool parties, fire dancers and much more in season. Would imagine it would get extremely busy however a very good vibe. Thank you Venosa
