The first great Turkish Hotel experience! It's the first hotel I strongly recommend!

We have just completed our third stay at Ela Excellence Resort Belek, and once again it was a wonderful holiday experience. Returning for the third time says a lot about how much we enjoy this hotel, and we are happy to see that the quality remains consistently high year after year. This time we stayed in a Lake House, which was perfectly located close to all the main areas of the resort. The accommodation was comfortable, well maintained, and made our stay even more enjoyable. One of the things that always stands out is the excellent housekeeping service. The cleaning was impeccable every day, and the attention to detail was greatly appreciated. A very special mention goes to the lady making omelets at Hayat Restaurant. We have seen her during every one of our visits, and amazingly, she always remembers us. It is small personal touches like this that make us feel more like family members than guests. Her warm smile and kindness make every breakfast special. The Everland team was, as always, outstanding. They are always present, attentive, and professional. Knowing they are there every day allows us to fully relax and enjoy our holiday with complete peace of mind. We also noticed that the Ela Hotel application has improved significantly compared to last year. It is now much more useful, user-friendly, and convenient for guests. The assistants and all staff members throughout the resort were extremely friendly and helpful. We would especially like to thank Mehtap, who was always kind, professional, and willing to assist whenever needed. Another thing that impressed us was seeing many familiar faces at the Pool Bar. The staff there are the same people we met last year and even the year before. Not only did they remember us, but they welcomed us back warmly. This says a lot about the hotel. It shows that Ela not only takes care of its guests but also creates a positive environment for its employees. Happy staff who stay for many years contribute greatly to the warm and welcoming atmosphere of the resort. The hotel grounds continue to be beautifully maintained. The gardens are always green, full of plants and flowers, and create a relaxing and luxurious environment throughout the resort. Overall, we are very pleased to see that the quality, service, and atmosphere remain at the same high level that made us fall in love with Ela in the first place. Consistency is rare in the hospitality industry, and Ela continues to deliver an exceptional experience. We would like to thank the entire team for another memorable holiday. We will definitely choose Ela again for our future vacations and look forward to returning for a fourth visit.

“Exceptional family holiday 🌞”

We visited Ela Excellence Resort as a family of five, with our children aged 10, 7 and 1.

We visited Ela Excellence Resort as a family of five, with our children aged 10, 7 and 1. We were also holidaying with our friends and their 5-year-old, so there were plenty of little ones to keep entertained. The resort was absolutely perfect for families and catered brilliantly for all ages. From the moment we arrived, Ela Excellence Resort Belek exceeded our expectations. The resort is absolutely beautiful, with immaculate grounds, luxurious facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel relaxed straight away. The food was amazing throughout our stay, with so much choice at every meal and something for everyone. We spent most evenings in the buffet restaurant and honestly couldn't fault it – the quality was fantastic and there was always plenty to choose from. We also visited the Mexican à la carte restaurant, La Salsa, one evening and it was a real highlight. The food was incredible, and the staff were absolutely brilliant. Everything was spot on and it ended up being one of our favourite meals of the holiday! The service throughout the resort was first class. Every member of staff we encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely committed to ensuring guests had the best possible experience. We stayed in a Deluxe Family Room with Sea View. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. The view from the balcony was amazing! The pools, beach, and entertainment were all fantastic. There were no sun bed wars, lots of sun loungers available daily, which was a real positive for us as we were a large group. What sets Ela Excellence apart is the attention to detail. Everything is thoughtfully organised, and the standard of care and hospitality is evident throughout the resort. We had an unforgettable holiday and would return without hesitation. Thank you to everyone at Ela Excellence Resort Belek for making our stay so special.

We stayed at Ela Excellence Resort in June 2026 for our first trip to Antalya as a family of four, including our 4-year-old son and 18-month-old daughter who has dairy and soya allergies. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and found the resort to be an excellent choice for families. The resort itself is vast, with plenty to keep children entertained. Between the splash park, swimming pools, kids club, and beautiful grounds, there was always something to do. The grounds were immaculate throughout our stay, and the resort was consistently clean and well maintained. The staff we encountered at reception and during meals were always pleasant and welcoming. A special mention goes to Mustafa, our guest assistant, who was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. On our final morning, he ensured our daughter's special breakfast was prepared and even reminded us to pick up pre-packaged sandwiches for the airport journey home, which was a thoughtful touch. One feature we particularly liked was the Ela app. It provided useful information about everything included within the resort, daily activities, and restaurant details - though it could have included more particularly times for the all inclusive options and guest ages etc. The messaging function was especially useful, as we used it to arrange a special allergy-friendly menu for our 18-month-old daughter. The kids club was one of the highlights of the holiday. There were different activities every day, multiple themed rooms, indoor and outdoor play areas, and role-play spaces. Gul at the kids club was fantastic and remembered both of our children's names, which made them feel very welcome. The other staff were also warm and friendly. Our children were delighted to receive bear plush toys during their stay. We did notice that some children arriving later were welcomed with Polaroid photos and a children's passport during check-in, which looked like a lovely touch, although we didn't receive this ourselves as we arrived late in the evening. As parents of a child with food allergies, we appreciated that allergens were generally labelled clearly throughout the buffet, and having access to the special allergy menu was very helpful. While the menu was somewhat limited, it worked perfectly well for our 18-month-old. There is still room for improvement, however. Not every buffet item was labelled, there were not always enough serving utensils available for each dish, and is cross-contamination (for example, shared ice cream scoops). We also found that not all staff fully understood allergy requirements, although we suspect some of this was due to the language barrier. The food overall was good, with a wide variety available at the main buffet each day. We also enjoyed having access to several alternative restaurants for lunch and a selection of restaurants for dinner. The 24/7 Ela Anatolian Restaurant was used on our arrival night, as we reached the resort very late and were still able to enjoy a meal. There were drinks/coffees/cocktails/cakes/ice creams available all day. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. We wouldn't classify it as the top end 5* as some other hotels we have been too (but it also doesnt match their price tags), especially service - but it's a very good all inclusive hotel with everything you would need.
