I have been - we've been to 4 holiday villages and if you want an honest opinion, it is the only one we wouldn't return to.

Don't get me wrong, we had a nice holiday but when you look back on it there were a lot of niggly points that would stop me from returning.

The food was english in style and very bland - which while OK for the kids, was not great for us adults (in HV kos for example they did fabulous greek food everyday, but not a hint of any local dishes in Turkey).

The drinks were terribly watered down, you couldn't get even slightly merry.

A couple of the deal breakers for me is the beach which although very quiet is not great, and finally the pools are just too heavily populated. You had to be up before 6.30 am to get a sunbed and around the main pool, they are placed literally 2 inches apart all the way around the edge of the pool, so that if I wanted to watch DD in the pool I couldn't sit of the edge of the pool and watch her, i had to stand behind a row of sunbeds.

Definitely not our favourite, there are much better quality HV's out there.

There are also lots of much better hotels in Turkey.

Gutted! All paid up and going this summer Hmm

I wouldn't worry too much. As I said, we had a nice holiday (and the pancake hut is scrumptious) and the kids had a ball which is the main point.

At least it is not one of the worst hotels Smile

I don't like the idea of big hotels like that anyway so it wouldn't be my choice. Sorry if I put you off.
