Great apartments, staff worked constantly to maintain high standards. Overbooking an ongoing problem which senior management do not handle in an efficient way. Kids club needs immediate attention.

I don't have one complaint about my stay at Kentia and would recommend it to everyone! The area is quiet and only around a twenty minute walk from the beach. The staff are so friendly and are very passionate about their work and about making guests happy. Most of them talk... more

Having visited all over Turkey 22 times over the past 8 years, we have not stayed self-catering in a long while, we usually stay at All Inclusive hotels, but we wanted a cheap week and found this would be ideal. We arrived late afternoon on the 19th May 2011 and stayed for... more

They had only opened the day before we arrived for the seasons, and so there were teething problems, such as water not being turned on in the apartments, but they put it right as soon as they were told. The apartments are kept spotlessly clean and the staff are lovely. I... more

I'll start with the bad and finish with the good! We booked this hotel 8 months in advance through Direct Holidays (Thomas cook). Arrived at the airport at 4.30 am after a delayed flight to be told our room had been double booked by Kentia. For two nights we were placed in... more

I have just got back from a lovely holiday with a girl friend. The one bedroomed apartment was advertised as having a double bed and single bed plus a sofa bed in the lounge. Unfortunately there was only a double bed in the bedroom. We had to ask for a second bed and a Z... more

P.S Kentia could sent me a up date please
absolutely loved it at the kentia
the hotel was really great. beautiful scenery from the balconys and great evening entertainment. ill definately go back
Loved our holiday at Kentia
Just back from two weeks holiday at Kentia where we had a fantastic holiday one of the best we have had in Turkey. The staff were very friendly and the apartments were kept spotlessly clean all the time we were there. Had a few meals at Kentia and they were of a high standard. Side maybe a bit far away but does not spoil your time at Kentia. Look forward to returning there again in the future.
No good for people with walking problems
hi just goy back from KENTIA in side would not recomend for disabled people as there is loads of steps up to the rooms and poolside there are 6 ground floor rooms always full +side very clean and maids lovely - reception staff very frosiey and a long way from beach there is a free bus service which we found stoped at the hotel nextdoor at 10.00 in the morring , it would cost 7000 each way in a taxi as buses are not that regulair very dissapointed with the hotel to far out
the best holiday ever
it was a great hotel and the staff were great wish to come again miss all the staff cleaners done a lovely job of the rooms xxx lauren from scotland
great time at the Kentia
Just come back from two weeks at the Kentia.We (2 adults 2 10yr old kids)found it very clean with the most lovely gardens of trees and flowers.Help from staff was mostly good,but a special mention to the animation team(kids club)who always had a smile, and genuinely looked like they enjoyed their jobs. Beach is about a 15-20 min walk which got to be a pain when you have a days worth of stuff to carry there and back.Side is too far to walk to with kids,and a difficult walk even for able adults.Kentia is basically in the middle of nowhere.Taxis are fairly cheap though,but haggle.Dolmus great experience and regular,and they go to most local destinations. Eating.Well,restaurant at the Kentia so so.Mehmets in the ruins good food,friendly service.Soundwaves by the town beach,great location,bit pricey though,food ok.Most fun place we found,was the Sultan Ay.Park your English reserve,enjoy the fun.Food good and very reasonable.Great staff. One last thing.If you like to lay in every day past 10,this may not be for you.I won't spoil the suprise further. Yes,i would go back.Kids loved the pool most.
Fantastic holiday in Side
We have just got back from Kentia Appartments and have to say they are well worth staying in. The staff are friendly and helpfull although didn't think the restruant on site was all that great but having stayed in the well equiped appartment for two weeks the holiday was well worth it. Side beach and town, a short walk away is clean and friendly. Beware if it's your first time while shopping the shop keepers are a bit overpowering but you learn how to avoid being harrassed. We strongly recommend a '' jeep safari'' up into the Taurus mountains where you will experience breathtaking views and have fun too but its not for the faint hearted!! we will be returning to Kentia again next May 2006 and look forward to seeing more of beautifull Turkey.
Asbolutely loved it
Kentia Apartments was an absolute brilliant hotel. The entertainment was very scarce up untill the age of about 40. the entertainers were mainly for children and would often be very entertaining for the selected age group. The staff were amazing they work from 6am till 2am and throught out their very long day they were marvelous to be around. The only complaints i have are about the laque of sunbeds and the fact that the hotel is basically in the middle of nowhere. overall a great holiday due to the excellent staff of the kentia apartments.
loved by me
just returned from side ,weather beautiful even in nov,stayed at kentia apartments ,superb cleaned daily ,pool cold food not bad ,dolmushes run every 10 mins overall afantastic place to visit it was so good weve booked again
SUPERB KENTIA
We're just back from a fortnight at the Kentia Apartments in Side with our 3 children (15, 9 & 3) and we've just booked again for the same fortnight in 2005! Need we go any further!!! Apartments 1st class, all staff hardworking and extremely helpful and friendly and food, both on site and outwith, superb and very good value for money. A special mention for Mehmets (in the Ruins) and our very friendly local restaurant called Cumali Alikoglu (French speaking gentleman and his family who went out of their way to make our visits very special). Overall a brilliant time was had by all. See ya all at the Kentia next year.
