I often think that all inclusive hotels are much the same! However, trendy Lara was certainly one of the best I’ve ever been to! The staff were fantastic, and I was approached by a chap from customer relations asking if there’s anything the hotel could do to improve its service, we did put a recommendation in as it would be good to have a spin dryer in the pool area to remove access water your swim clothes, but I thought that there was very little this hotel could improve on because it was very good! The location is very quiet if you want to go anywhere out of the hotel there is a great bus service just across the road, which will take you into Lara this area has shops and restaurants, or if you stay on the bus LA70A, it will take you into Antalya old town, where you can visit the bizarre or go down to the harbour (in season, you can get a boat trip) or simply shop till you drop. The bus charge just one fixed price per journey. (It doesn’t matter how far you go) You can use your bank card to tap and go on the bus and it cost about 25p a journey so well worth getting out of the hotel even if it’s only once. The hotel served food and drink around the clock, the food in the main restaurant was really good quality and lots of choice, I was in Turkey so I wanted Turkish food but there was enough variety to keep people happy, every evening there were pizza and pasta, plus chips and chicken nuggets for the children. Dom Bistro, is a smaller restaurant that opens when the main restaurant closes, so if you have been out for the day or don’t want to eat too early, there’s always an option. My favourite little area was “eclairs” the cake shop, where you could have soft drinks or a hot chocolate the cakes in there were lovely, it was a very nice plush area with great decor. Beautiful pink sofas and hanging chandeliers with mirrors on the walls. The outdoor area of the hotel is very big with tennis and other sports available. I went out of season so not all the pools were open. There was an outdoor heated pool but only heated to a certain temperature only the very brave could survive it … it might be more appealing if they would turn the temperature up. The indoor pool was a couple of degrees warmer again, I would’ve liked that to be a bit more comfortable, but nevertheless I got in most days, the steam room sauna and her Hamman were lovely, fantastic relaxing areas with tranquil music the perfect way to unwind during your holiday. My room was brilliant. Most of the hotel was closed down so all the guest were in block C. I did hear an argument one evening while I was trying to sleep but that is not the hotel’s fault. It was quite late into the night. I am guessing as the bar is open 24 hours alcohol might of fueled the argument. My room was serviced every day they came in and changed the towels made the bed even though I had already made it and also the minibar was refilled. On my husband’s birthday they made a wonderful display of Sw

We stayed for 10 nights from the 19th of December. And the hotel was absolutely amazing, everything about this hotel is just sheer luxury! From the robes in your room to how clean and classy everywhere else in the hotel is to. A huge mention to Tanju who looked after us so much on our stay. He would get our table ready for us with drinks already there on the table as we arrived. He was brilliant. Not just Tanju, but all the staff went above and beyond to make sure you were ok and was checking on you every few minutes. Selma was very friendly and welcoming to who made the best omelettes. Reception staff were also very welcoming when we arrived an made us feel at home as soon as we got there. I’ve never seen anything like it on Christmas Eve either. As we walked in to the restaurant we had a welcome drink on arrival the restaurant was decorated amazingly! The food choice was just unbelievable and I didn’t know where to begin! The food & drink overall was really good, so much choice every day The spa facilities are amazing. We had two massages during our stay and all staff were so friendly and hotel facilities and activities in general are just really good. Don’t let the negative reviews put you off this hotel!! Overall, it was a fully enjoyable stay with so and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone!

This is our second visit to the wonderful Trendy Lara Hotel, and I have to say it did not disappoint. We were met by Customer Relations Manager Yusef, who escorted us to our Villa, they had allocated us the same villa we stayed in April. It was so lovely to see so many of the wonderful staff we met back in April were still there and some even recognised us!! - must have made an impression lol. Although some of the A-la-carte restaurants were not open during our stay, we had most of our meals in the main restaurant which as always was fabulous, lots of choice on each evening. We ate our lunch in the Villa Bar most days and the chef even catered for individual choices. We accessed the spa this time and had turkish bath and massage sessions, special mention to Wely one of the masseuser's and if you see Jimmy he will work out a good deal for you during your stay. More special mentions to Mevlut, who works between the main restaurant and the Dom Bistro, Irfan, working in the main restaurant, Metin, our lovely barman - who made sure we were never without a drink and Tolga another of the bar staff - and not forgetting Yusef who made sure everything was perfect for our stay. I cannot express in words how lovely this hotel is, the staff are so helpful and kind and nothing is too much trouble for them.

Gorgeous hotel, special staff, especially Irfan nothing was too much trouble, food choices were vast and everywhere was spotless. Pina colada and caramel frappe was our fav! Could not fault this yes it was a little quiet but that suited us we were with my mum who was celebrating her 81 st birthday ! Thank you for everything we will be back . Villa was spectacular! 5105 Sally Lorna and Joan
