“Amazing hotel - great for honeymoon”

We went on honeymoon to Turkey & we arrived at 3.00am to this hotel & very tired, yet were greeted with the wonderful news that we had been upgraded free to the honeymoon suite. The service throughout our stay was lovely & friendly & we couldn't get over that food & drink was always inclusive of our stay there (the pattiserie is open from 10-6 every day & has amazing cakes!) We recommend this hotel to anyone on honeymoon

“Great choice among a host of nearby choices”

As a frequent traveler and travel writer, I can whole-heartedly recommend the Barut Hotel Lara Spa and Resort. The big problem with most all-inclusives is poor quality or selection when it comes to food - especially during an extended stay. This is not the case at Barut. The chefs create imaginative offerings that actually make you look forward to leaving the fabulous sandy beach! Top to bottom the staff was outstanding - definitely 5-star quality personnel. The rooms were clean - even at the lowest rates - as was the entire facility. The on-site spa facilities were more than adequate, although did not make or break the stay. The hotel offers a low-cost shuttle into Antalya and the front desk is more than helpful when it comes to recommending sites, activities and ATM locations! I was not traveling with kids, however there seemed to be a good program on-site for them as well. Overall, this is one all-inclusive that is also all-impressive!

“The Best Hotel in Antalya”

Marvellous hotel! Very nice place, excellent service, friendly relaxed atmosphere, wonderfull Talasso-Spa Center. I`ll go there again and again.

“Outstanding”

I spent 4 days, as part of my honeymoon trip to Antalya, in this fantastic hotel. It is an outstanding all-inclusive hotel provides high standards of guest services and activities.

“brilliant”

Fine hotel in good beach location and near airport. A real inclusive deal including good food, free minibar and fresh orange juice at breakfast. The spa is at Uk prices but nice for a relax. A fine selection of friendly cats which the hotel has a special cat house and care for them.

“very Beautiful for groups”

it was a very beautiful and good hotel, however i don't suggest it for single travelers because it is prohibited to enter any person from out side of the resort. and this would be a problem if you are alone. other than that the timing is very important it is preferable to go there during summer time, because during my trip the average age of the visitors was 65 years old, so i was surronded by many old persons and some young couples with an age more than 50 years old. as for everything else, i can say it is beautiful place, comfortable, no expensive and very good for groups.

“Great hotel and service”

This hotel really does have everything. Very good service. Has a good spa although treatments are a little expensive and it does feel like a bit of a hard sell at times although staff are very nice (Z and Jasmine - try the green tea wrap and massage) Thalasso pool is free in the spa. My only criticism is that many Germans use the hotel and on transfer the local travel agency gave me all info in German and on first day meetings with the rep it was with German travellers and the rep did not speak good English. The Fire of Anatolia was a good trip - the show is like a Turkish Riverdance and is amazing although not impressed with getting there 2 hours before the start and the driver and guide not speaking English but German. This got annoying after a while with even the hotel staff addressing me in German! Grear choice of food at the buffet Divan restaurant, salads, meat and fish dishes. Good quality food as well. Never had to wait long for drinks service, very attentive staff. ABout 3-4 pools to choose from with lots of activities if required led by the Animation team, yoga and aqua classes with lots to do for the kids. Nice Private beach close to hotel with shuttle from hotel if required - didn't need it as only a 5 min walk. Hotel even has a cinema although German versions more predominant than English speaking. Rooms nice and clean although ants can crawl in if you leave balcony door open (which I did!). Very pleasant cleaning staff.
