Cook's Club Alanya - Adult Only 12

I do not like a color of the bathroom as you do not see how clean it is. Also the reception was not friendly.

Overview: Fantastic hotel that exceeded expectations with outstanding food and a beautiful beach. Great value daytime adventures to be had but the evenings weren’t as lively, with fake goods shops dominating the *****, save for a few underwhelming restaurant-bars. Good local places away from the *****. Pros - Food was amazing, couldn’t fault it. Breakfast was standard but there was enough variety everyday so it wasn’t always the same which was good. Dinner was also great, different menu every night with a lot of Turkish food which was delicious and a good salad bar. Desserts were also very nice. The beach was amazing, cooks club has its own sunbeds we can use for free however they are available for others to use too so there can be families with buggies and children around. The sea is so warm and lovely, the warmest sea I have ever been in. The cooks club staff come around to ask you for drinks on the beach too which is very good and they also assist with putting up parasols. The only thing I’d note is that the music can get very loud. There is a 5% service charge on all orders (as half board) so there was no expectation to tip which was really nice as we didn’t really have to carry much cash around with us on the beach as it all gets added to the room tab which you pay at the end. The hotel rooms were very nice and clean, and very spacious. Good air conditioning and good blackout curtains. The shower is also really nice. The restaurant, bar and pool area are beautiful and the pictures are exactly how it looks in real life. The whole area is very well kept and the interior design and themes are gorgeous. One of the best things about the area is that there are numerous adventures to be had at a relatively low cost. We went paragliding over Alanya for around €20 which was awesome. We also took a day trip to Köprülü Kanyon, where we rafted down rivers and small rapids amongst the most incredible scenery; again for €25 per head including transfer and lunch. There are plenty of other activities in the mountains, which are similarly priced and completely worth the 2hr coach journey. Cons - We booked via easyJet and the coach transfer took around 3hrs 30mins which is well over their stated maximum of 2hrs 30mins so I would definitely recommend booking a private transfer (this is less on the hotel but and FYI for those booking with easyJet). I would also highly recommend the dinner at the hotel and go for half board (or all inclusive) vs just bed and breakfast if you want great Turkish food. We found that the local area didn’t have a great variety of authentic Turkish restaurants, for example we had to walk around 20 mins to find a lovely bakery that did delicious Börek but there weren’t many on the Kleopatra *****. In terms of evening entertainment in the local are, there was very little around. There were a couple of livelier restaurant-bars (note that alcohol is pretty expensive) including two near our resort, but 95% of the shops on the ma

Lovely hotel and beautiful staff but all inclusive does not mean all inclusive at this hotel. No snacks, no icecream and only food available on the specific buffet. All the best food and drinks was reserved for other not all inclusive customers. Entertainment such as Turkish singers and aqua joggers was reserved for Turkish locals. Very odd. Shame because it could be an unbelievable holiday if they made all customers feel equal.

I loved cooks club! The reviews on here about to being bad, ignore! You can’t expect so much when you are paying a small price! After reading the reviews I was worried however having been and stayed there for 10 nights. I absolutely loved it. Our room was lovely. Very bright not dark like some of the pictures and we had a Seaview room. It was absolutely fantastic. We went on Bed & Breakfast basis. The breakfast was adequate. It had lots of choice and the food from the main menu in the restaurants were outstanding. The Mexican was exceptional as well. The pose the beach and the staff were all great. We even got a chance to chat with Jerry. The general manager who is also absolutely lovely and we loved it that much. We are returning next year on the 9th of June and this time for two weeks so we can’t wait to see you again, cooks club!

A magnificent hotel with a large swimming pool, a bar and its own part of Cleopatra Beach. Everything is very clean, tidy and the staff is as friendly and helpful as possible. We lived in a suite room, with breakfast and dinner included, we really liked everything. I would especially like to mention Irem's work, She helped me solve my questions during all seven days. I am very grateful for this, this is a very high-quality employee and a kind person! I have great impressions of the hotel and the atmosphere, and I will be happy to come back here again and recommend this place to my friends.
