Carelta Beach Resort & Spa

“You may if you want to”

Stayed at Carelta Beach with friends. The hotel itself was OK, but looked a bit out dated as it was first opened in 1998. The room was clean and spacious with its own balcony.

Stayed at Carelta Beach with friends. The hotel itself was OK, but looked a bit out dated as it was first opened in 1998. The room was clean and spacious with its own balcony. Air conditioning in the room broke down once at +35 Celsius. But the hotel stuff was quite helpful to fix it in an hour. All in all service was good and friendly. The food was tasty, especially meat dishes and salads. The drinks were disappointing actually. Juice and beer were diluted with water, wich is, of course, not a 4-star hotel approach. The private beach is relatively small. Getting into the sea may be a problem for some because of the rocky bottom. The current is quite strong and you have to pay attention to this all the time to make sure that you are far enough from water bikes and motorboats. They float around all the time and may be dangerous for some reason. As for the guests British, Germans and French are a minority here. Turks, Russian and Ukrainian are prevailing. Be ready for quite noisy nights because of the animation and discos. Those who get pool-side rooms may be upset with the nightlife activities. Our room was overlooking the road, but we still could hear the action from the beach area far beyond 1:00 a.m. Nevertheless, no negative impressions here. Carelta Beach is a good value for money. $1,500 for two weeks all inclusive package is a viable option in terms of price and quality. But, of course, there are more interesting hotels. And not in Turkey.
