Aska Lara Resort & SPA

Overall a lovely stay. Facilities were all clean and well maintained. View from the room balcony is great. Staff were all really friendly. For me I am a fussy eater and for the week I stayed I had all inclusive but a lot of the food was more like posh style food where it’s a small portion. For me I don’t want that, I prefer big sized portions but some people would prefer the posh small sized portions. I still found some food each day that I enjoyed. Desserts weren’t great. My main complaint would be the wait times to get served at any of the bars and also the starbucks. Clearly not enough staff at the bars and starbucks. A lot of the time the starbucks is a 20 minute queue. The area where they show live football is also away from the bar which was also annoying. Overall it’s a lovely hotel, they treat cats really well and the staff are very nice. It is very clean and you feel safe. Lots to do around the hotel as well. Just the wait times are long at the bars and Starbucks.

Just arrived home after a wonderful holiday at the Aska Lara Resort and Spa with our three children. We arrived late last Thursday night and were greeted by check in staff who were both friendly and welcoming and a lovely man brought our cases to our connecting family room. The room was lovely , spacious and incredibly clean. The cleaners work extremely hard and the rooms were always cleaned to a high standard. Food was good with plenty of choice in Anka and Wet and Wild with the option of using on site restaurants as well. Waiting on staff and chefs were also hardworking and kind and took pride in their work. Pool area was wonderful as well as the water park and beach side facilities. We book one of the beach cabanas for a day and were waited in throughout the day by a lovely young man who was polite, friendly and efficient, I wish I could remember his name! It was our first time in Turkey and this holiday has certainly set the bar very high! I would LOVE to go back to Aska Lara! It ticked all the boxes for a perfect holiday for a family who wants yo relax and to have fun too! A HUGE thank you to the staff at Aska for making our stay so special!

Honestly one of the best places we have stayed and we have been to plenty in Turkey. The food was incredible. There were so many outstanding dishes to try. Lots of different choices and something for everyone. Saffet on the Salad Bar was spot on. Muhammed Ali - Waiter in the restaurant was always smiling and Setin was so attentive. The room was large and comfy. The bed was enormous and we had a flat screen TV that we didn't use. Bathroom had a big shower with plenty of water and you can request dressing gowns on the app and more toiletries. It's rated 4 star because it isn't on the beach, but there is a huge beach centre including water park several pools several restaurants bars and an outdoor stage. Most of the areas were closed when we arrived but most were open when we left. Looked great for kids. This was about 200 meters down the road, but there was a bus if you didn't fancy the walk. Metin - Barman was great fun. Yasar and Emiran- Snack Bar were brilliant also. Setin & Ahmed on the bar were also brilliant and Emrahn - Brasserie Bar made great cocktails and Gull looked after us as well she was great. I have given a lot of shout outs, but without doubt the best was Yunus - Section Manager who always checked in with us. Was so friendly and also got extra chairs for us when there was no where to sit for the show. When we first arrived the temperature wasn't as hot of an evening, but there were not enough places to sit inside, but there were blankets for people who sat outside which was excellent. The shows were in the main bar, but this was ridiculous as it was far too busy and you couldn't see a thing because of the pillars. When it was moved to the conference room it was miles better. There is a midnight buffet in the dining room and a midnight bar if you don't fancy the disco. The midnight bar is not open during the day, it's down the side of the cinema opposite the spa. There was also a cinema showing two films a day. It was my wife's Birthday while we were there and the staff made a special effort with her decorating the room with balloons and a cake and sparkling wine. Overall I really enjoyed Aska and would definitely look to return. Thanks to all those who looked after us.

Amazing hotel. They supplied me with a birthday cake in my room for my birthday which I didn't ask for. The food selection is great, with food from all over the world. Staff are very helpful especially guest services. Waiters are quick and bring your drinks promptly. The waterpark is brilliant. Slides and pools are plenty and bars too. Good food choices all day long. Couldn't recommend enough. The guest services were so kind as to arrange a birthday party for my son so thanks.

Room 1501. Cleaning and service was very good. Variert of food. Private beach at good location. Definitely recommend. Only thing i would say is can the hotel be more clear about booking the white canopes at the beach as we weren't aware we had to book these at the reception. Our representive Ahmet was really good. All the activities we booked were amazing and defo recommend this holiday.
