Had a great stay at Arum, staff very helpful and nice.

Amazing stay Well maintained hotel directly on the beach with great amenities and activities for both adults and kids, I highly recommend booking the water bike activity in the indoor pool and Olga was super friendly and professional during the classes offering the best exercises for all the body muscles and joints. Great entertainment team and special thanks to the kids’ club members who made my son holiday full of fun and activities! Great pools where you could find a sun bed easily and varieties of food and drinks around the place while you are enjoying your day. The main restaurant also offers all varieties of fresh food and you could also book the a la carte restaurants with guest relations on your arrival as they got fully booked quickly but Meltem was a star helping me to book 2 of them by putting me on the waiting list. Reception staff are very welcoming on arrival and give you all the information you will need, I’m highly praising Ibrahim for his professionalism and help. Rooms are nicely decorated, spacious with comfy beds and very clean, thanks to the housekeeping service. It was our best stay in Side over the last 3 visits in an all inclusive resorts and definitely highly recommending it and can’t wait to book our next visit with Arum Barut!

We loved our time here - really couldn’t fault it! The only downside was the quality of the WiFi - it was pretty patchy everywhere (we would often get kicked of it or would t get it at all, even in our room) except in the lobby…

We are currently on the final day of our stay, and it truly feels like the Arum Barut Collection is our second home. This is our 9th visit, and the hotel continues to exceed every expectation. We are already planning our return! ​Our wonderful holiday started the moment we arrived, thanks to Ibrahim, who greeted us with the warmest, most genuine hospitality and set the perfect tone for our stay by allocating us a lovely room with a stunning sea view. Throughout our time here, the entire property has been spotlessly clean. ​The pool area was quite busy due to the time of year, but the beach always had plenty of sun loungers available all day. The evening entertainment has been a real highlight, with fantastic live music at the pool bar every single night—the bands on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday were absolutely the best! ​The staff always make this hotel special. During the day, Furkan and Mustafa Dali provided great service with lovely, creative cocktails. In the evenings, Tolghan, Hasan, and Omer Celik were excellent and incredibly prompt; they always remembered our favorite drinks and were so genuinely friendly. Over at the beach bar, Baris makes fantastic margarita cocktails! ​Combined with delicious food and plenty of choice at every meal, everything was top-notch. It’s tough to leave today, but we will be coming back for sure!

Our 8th visit and still absolutely love it! ​We just returned from our 8th stay here, and it remains our absolute favorite holiday spot. The cleanliness of the resort is top-notch, the food is consistently excellent, and the staff are incredibly lovely and welcoming. ​Overall, the service is great. The only minor downside we noticed this time was that the drink service at the pool bar in the evenings wasn’t quite as efficient as everything else as we experienced last year. Omer was However very very good in the evenings! However, it certainly didn't spoil our trip. We still highly recommend this place and will definitely be back for visit number 9!

Arum Barut is a fantastic hotel. Great food and drinks,guest service is beyond belief. We recommending this property, your money will be well spend

The room was spotlessly clean , the staff were amazing .

Very nice staff & very clean hotel. Food was really good quality. Only negative was the in room air condition was poor.

Excellent Hotel

Cons - very noisy and old air conditioning in rooms. Paper straws in every bar are perhaps eco-friendly, but useless... Rocks hidden under water in sea. Pros - wonderfull hotel, great, polite, friendly and helpful staff. Awesome food every time during the day. Nice drinks. Overall great stay!

Property was excellently maintained and the room we had was large and spotless. Staff were generally great, only issue was that the food was not up to the standard we expected in terms of quality and choice in comparison with the only other AI hotel I have stayed at in Turkiye

The hotel and grounds were stunning, and our sea view room with a balcony was very comfortable. Staff were very accommodating and attentive. A dizzying variety of food was offered in the dining room. The outdoor nightly entertainment was delightful.

Travelled as a couple and was our 5th stay at this hotel. Everything was wonderful. Hotel is spotlessly clean. Grounds are beautiful. Staff are professional and friendly. Food was delicious and plenty of vegetarian options available. We particularly liked the fresh pasta station. We had great fun playing archery and darts with Volkan. Animation team are great, they are visable and inviting if you want to engage but not pushy at all. Reception service was efficient, welcoming and professional in particular by Ibrahim. We loved everything about our stay and we will continue to return to Arum Barut.

Amazing stay but housekeeping forgot to put coffee cups in the room

Nice pool size . 2-3 min walk to the beach. A nice hotel for family.

This place is perfect! It’s perfectly clean and hospitality is awesome! Foods are fresh, delicious and variety is very big ,everyday we had a different special foods as well. No hesitation about booking again !

My daughter and I stayed here from 23/3 to 30/3 in a beautiful Seaview room. I can't give enough praise to the all of the Staff who made our holiday a brilliant experience. The front of house staff were so helpful and went out of their way to book taxis and suggest nice places to visit. The restaurant staff worked incredibly hard and the variety of food every day was spectacular. Cellists and violinists played guests into the restaurant and the Waiting Staff were super efficient. Our room was spotless and remained so throughout our stay. We can recommend the treatments at the Hotel Spa. The Staff there were welcoming and made us feel welcome and relaxed. The Hamam experience was fantastic. We loved the range of languages spoken by the hotel staff and also the kindness from local people that we spoke to. We had never been to Turkey before but this experience is definitely one that we would love to repeat.

Went from this hotel to titanic Mardan palace and the step up is big.

I really couldn't fault our stay at Arum Barut Collection. Beautiful, spotlessly clean hotel. Amazing buffet, such a wide selection of beautifully cooked food. Nice wine, lovely bar overlooking the beach which was perfect for a pre dinner glass or two watching the sun set. All of the staff were super friendly and accommodating. The barman in the lounge bar had an amazing memory for our preferred post dinner tipple. In terms of entertainment, our room was close to the pool bar so we often listened to the live music from our balcony. I can't comment on the entertainment elsewhere. We were travelling just with our youngest 16yr old son. He made full use of the gym. Also recommend a visit to the hotel clothes shop where the lovely shop owner will show you a range of top brand t shirts etc at competitive prices. Outside the hotel, we walked into Side daily along the sunny prom which was bursting with bright flowers and interesting planting. It was maybe a 40 minute brisk walk but busses run from outside the hotel if you don't want to walk or you can call a taxi. Lots to see in Side. The ampitheatre is a must as is the museum. Will certainly return. I miss that buffet so much!!
