Yelken Mandalinci Spa & Wellness Hotel

Highly NOT recommended!

10. In the morning at 5:50 am you are woke up with the turkish pray from speakers on whole town;

11. NO Wi-Fi in the room. Very poor connection in reception, eating area.

The worst Holiday experience ever.

Me and my Wife came to the Kefaluka resort which by the way is a 10 out of 10 but unfortunately due to Covid the Spa was closed, so one day we took a taxi into Turgutreis and walked past the Mandalinci hotel and noticed the Spa was open, we went to reception who were very helpful and pointed us to the Spa where we had the minimum package (80 minutes) and I have to say it was the best Turkish Bath I've ever had and I've had a good few, the sauna was just that, can't really say any more, then on to the bath which was sooooo good, then a little chill and Turkish Tea while you dry off then into the massage room where I was given the best massage I've ever had, these girls really know what they're doing and get right into those knots elbows knees the lot, after the full body massage there's a little face mask, can't really say much about that either, bit pointless but hayho it's part of the package so why not, we came out feeling completely relaxed,

so if you avoid this Hotel because of the bad reviews (which in my view seem to be more of a tour operator issue sending Brits to a non English speaking Hotel) then make sure you pop in for the Spa, you most certainly won't regret it

Got to hotel and paid extra for a balcony room with sea view. Was taken to our room they take your luggage for you then stand and wait for a tip.this could become expensive when being moved 3 times.

1st room no balcony size of a shoebox and curtains hanging off.

2nd room boy came took our luggage again to a room below pool level and with a massive tree taking up the whole terrace so you couldn't even sit there.

3rd time sort of lucky. Peeling walks one chair alone on balcony bathroom flaky and mouldy. Then electricity wasn't working so had to call reception that was a Misson as hotel doesn't cater for English just Russian and German. No English speaking staff! The matinance man came and hit the fuse box twice so we had to do this every time we came in to the room my daughter would get on a chair and bang the fuse box so we could have electricity.

The food was disgusting. We had to borrow money to eat out every night and buy cereal for the room.

I asked for water ,aqua at the bar and no understand ? Tea coffee chocolate was my answer so yet again went and bought some.

PLEASE DO NOT BOOK HERE. If english it will spoil your holiday.theres nicer hotels in the area. The only good thing about this hotel is location. But it needs to cater for english and have a room revamp.
