Olive Garden hotel

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in or seen! We went all inclusive and the food was revolting; only one choice for your main meal and it was absolute rubbish. There was never once in the two week any dessert of any type. Every single meal was rice and chips with a single choice. We ate out all the time and spent a fortune which was annoying as we had paid all inclusive. It took ages to get served unless it was after 11 o’clock which by then you had to pay so they went straight there to serve you.
The only thing good about this hotel is Emin who worked on the reception, he was lovely and tried to help all times.
Ovacik has nothing around but Hisoronu about 1 mins walk away is brill and so is the beach, but please think twice before booking this hotel.

Our first holiday in Turkey was terrible thanks to this hotel, it was appalling - the food, the people and the place. Olu deniz and Hisoranu was absolutely amazing!!! Harmony bar, you must go there! very friendly people and fantastic atmosphere, something for every one there.
The people in Olive Gardens were very ignorant towards you and did not offer to help you with luggage like every hotel would. Do not book your holiday here. We are going back to Turkey soon and I cant wait, Turkey is great but the hotel was terrible.

Would just like to agree with the ladies comments previous to mine! I have been to Turkey four times before this visit! Until now I could not fault it! This hotel makes Fawlty Towers look like the Ritz! As for the chap that said he loved the place and so will you, he can only be a partner in the hotel, as I booked the hotel on the back of his comments. Many thanks!!!
Please trust me when I say I did not speak to one person that had anything good to say! The food was awful, (and I’m really not fussy) the staff although at times trying to be nice were the most creepy bunch where the women were concerned, it got quite tiresome for some of them after a while.
In a week we had our towels changed once, we took them ourselves in the end. We were charged extra for absolutely everything they could blatantly get away with. The new owner was confronted on a few occasions by different people, myself included, but I have to say that he is so up himself that it was all falling on deaf ears!
All that said because the complex is small you do get to meet everyone, and we met some lovely people. Although the topic of conversation between us all was about how bad the place is, because it was so bad it was funny! Food 1-10, room 3-10, staff 4-10. Avoid! Avoid!

I went to this hotel with my 11 year daughter and had a lovely holiday. The Hotel facilities are adequate. Having read previous reviews before I went, I knew what to expect. To holiday in Turkey in a small Hotel as this one was, is for people who want to completely relax and 'do their own thing'.
All the staff were lively, friendly, keen and helpful. English was spoken by some, but that is usually the case when you travel abroad! My experience was a good one, the B&B side of it was fine. The A/I was not an option - the food was tedious and un-interesting - there was an option for B&B guests to eat there, at a small cost, but it was not something I signed up for! I recommend going to the many Turkish eateries in the nearby town. It was so cheap to eat out and enjoy what was on offer.
This Hotel is simple, clean, basic but it was not expensive to go, so you get what you pay for! No loud music blasting all day, no annoying 'themed nights' thrown at us every night, just the laid back, relaxing hospitality of the Turkish people who ran it.
The pool was clean & safe. The loungers were comfortable and every night the pool area was cleaned up and transformed into a pretty outdoor restaurant setting.
In summary, a cheap holiday at a good hotel in a beautiful setting with hard-working and friendly staff.

My family & I could not have wished for a better holiday.
Very friendly, we were greeted at the hotel & this in all made our holiday one to remember and will be returning again next year... 110% all round
the food was a bit Turkish but ok, chips served with every meal.
There rooms where we stayed were cleaned ever morning if required, fresh towels every day.
All in all for a three star hotel I could not fault it.
Many thanks to the staff for all their help, this we all added to a good holiday.

We returned from a week here on 29th June 2007. We went All Inclusive but were very disappointed in what we actually got.
The hotel itself is lovely, set in well kept gardens, and the staff are what you usually expect in Turkey, helpful, cheerful etc. They are however having to deal with complaints on a daily basis from the vast majority of those staying there.
Firstly the meals. The hotels website states that there is a choice of meals. This is not the case. There is the usual Turkish breakfast but avoid the eggs as they are so overcooked its worrying.
Lunch and evening meal is a set menu with no choice and is written on a board by the pool for the forthcoming week. 6 out of 7 evening meals are with chips, sometimes with chips and rice. The usual is chips and nuggets, chips and meatballs, chips and casserole.
The food is not what seasoned travellers will be used to from Turkey. The mesas are limited here, dessert is rare, and if you have special dietary problems forget it.
I returned a whole grilled fish on a plate of spaghetti as I am allergic only for it to be replaced with a plate full of spaghetti and when I asked for sauce or something to accompany the pasta I was given the ketchup bottle.
There is rarely fruit juice available with breakfast and don’t be hoodwinked into accepting freshly squeezed orange unless you are prepared to pay 3ytl. There are no snacks available throughout the day, a must if you are with children.
Rooms are not cleaned every day. Complaints were being put to the new manager but he was insistent that he was in the right. The hotel was nowhere near to full and the overall consensus of those there at the time was that when the season’s gets into full swing the hotel will not be able to cope and there will be anarchy.
It’s a good job the surrounding area is superb, the restaurants are brilliant, but if you are paying for A/I and have limited spending money beware this may not be the hotel for you.
I have travelled to Turkey many times and know what to expect but this hotel did not offer anything that I have experienced in this wonderful country before.
