I really enjoyed my stay here but unfortunately the food was not always fresh. A lot of the snack foods were from frozen. Filter coffee was only available in the breakfast buffet and then taken away. At the bar the nice coffees were no longer being served due to shortage of capsules. I know they are winding down for the season but a decent coffee was nowhere to be had. Apart from that the rooms were impeccable. The gardens and grounds beautiful and the staff were extremely polite and helpful.

The hotel was very good, I just went at the wrong time as it was coming to the end of season in late October so some events/facilities were no longer open.

Excellent place to stay

The hotels rooms have an air condition issue. Some rooms the air condition doesn’t work. Some you can change and some are cold which is very strange. The was some electrical issues where electricity turned off a couple of times and the TV didn’t work. The WiFi was good and they have an all inclusive buffet and a midnight snack. This is NOT a 5 star hotel.

We just stayed one night. The facilities were fine, but I didn't like the room because it was extremely hot and we didn't want to open the patio doors for air as we were on the ground floor with no enclosed private area. The pillow was very uncomfortable as it was too thick and made of hot synthetic fibre. I hardly slept at all.

We stayed at Samara in October, hoping it would be less crowded during the off-season. However, it was still busier than we expected. As the most affordable 5-star hotel in the region, many holidaymakers ended up staying here. The hotel itself feels stuck in the 1990s in terms of décor and aesthetics, but we really enjoyed the garden space and the openness of the premises. The staff were polite and reasonably friendly (though their English could be improved). The pools were great, and the facilities were sufficient to keep you and your family entertained. Overall, the hotel ticks all the boxes required for a 5-star rating, but the quality of the facilities leaves much to be desired.

It is a great place. I highly recommended. It’s beautiful. People were very professional. Very kind I was upgraded. Our room was absolutely fantastic. We really love it. We had a good look at the pools the beach. Everything appears to be really impeccable. Everybody there was very good service. There was a lot of delicious food And people were very courteous. Unfortunately, I have planned only one night but I will come back and it will request to come to the same hotel because it was absolutely beautiful. I would like to spend a little bit more time there.

The guests at this hotel vary greatly, but overall it seems more of an older crowd is usually there. In my 2 weeks there i think my wife and I were the youngest couple by at least 3o years.

The hotel has olive trees, banana trees, palm trees, you can swim while looking at the forest & mountain because of all those things it was very relaxing. Staff were so helpful, cheerful. The sea was amazing. Going to downtown Bodrum by taxi 10-15 min. Next year definitely will come here again☺️

I had a great time with my family during our stay. The check-in process could have been smoother, but overall it was okay. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, especially in the restaurant and bar, which made our experience enjoyable.

Bathrooms were extremely dirty — at 9 a.m. in the spa area, every stall was messy, the garbage bin was overflowing with toilet paper, and there was even a bloody feminine product. When we asked for a cab, we were told it would take 10 to 30 minutes, but no one seemed sure. The resort is very family-focused, with most entertainment geared toward young children. We also noticed leftover food being reused for lunch, dinner, and even late-night snacks — very disappointing.

Very nice resort,friendly staff,very helpful. However the room we were given which was supposed to be sea view,was harsly that it was next to the kids swimming pool and was noisy

Nice property and great location? food is great and the stuff is very friendly!!!

Service and meal options are great. It is in an isolated area. But you have what you need at the hotel. Music noise from the hotel next to it spoils the fun and peaceful night. That was the most annoying part.

Hotel location was nice. Definitely remodeled. However personnel were not sufficient to accommodate and were not very engaged. Seemed to deliver bare minimum.. However, I do want to recognize Diyar and Cennet from the dining area for good service and attention.

Food, cleanliness, friendly staff.

When i first checked in the room i was assigned to was probably not cleaned. There was a pair of shorts on the balcony that did not belong to us. There was bedding on the couch as if someone had been sleeping there and it was not removed. The air in the room was not cold enough and i asked to have it looked at. They said the air was fine but the room was still hot. After two days we were moved to another room and immediately noticed that the bed had bugs in it and there was hair on the linen as if it hadn't been changed. I was moved to another room. Finally things were ok.

We stayed at samara from 15-19 june.first of all i would like to to thank everybody from reception to all staff.we have been to a few different 5 star resorts this summer,i have to say that hotel samara was the best,very clean excellent food,drinks,staff were friendly and very helpful this resort is beyond 5 stars,all positives and no negatives.would highly recommend this resort to all,and we will definitely be back.thank you samara.10/10.

Samara is an older resort hotel that offers a constant service to guests at an affordable price with an average quality at Turkey resort’s standards. Its a family friendly place that can be fun during the day with constant food/pastry service by the beach but it didn’t have any night time plan and more cosy spot to hang out with friends and family. Overall its designed for larger groups to hang out with each other who want to have average quality food at abundance and enjoy a large beautiful resort with a good clear beach.

Wonderful stay in Bodrum! About 10 min from the city cente and 25 min from the airport. Enjoyed the accommodations, very comfortable beds and a wide selection of foods for breakfast, lunch and dinner; they even had snacks & ice cream poolside. Plenty of seating and activity for all ages. They thought of everything!
