Adalya Elite Lara Hotel All Inclusive

This is our 4th year in Antalya and every year in different resorts. Adalya is amazing for its service, the food is so far the best we tried, also cakes are very tasty. This hotel / resort is smaller than the others we tried but it is great. A minus here is language! We faced many from the staff and it was impossible to have a conversation! They didn't speak English! The entertainment staff was great and kind. The service in the restaurant was great. We had a problem with noise from the neighbour hotel and they moved us straight to another level and room. Amazing service. The wave pool is AMAZING. My big kids (teens) missed some music and activities after midnight. All in all a wonderful week.

Really nice hotel. Clean, good food selection. Pools are clean but quite cold. Beach is nice, but be aware that there are stones for about 3 meters in the water. If it wasnt for my swimming shoes, I would not be able to walk on them. Water is quite warm, but also a bit dirty and not see through. The prices in the clothes shop are in the middle compared to shops outside, some are cheaper, even half the price, and some 2x more. Please bring your own sunbathing creams, as the prices there are like 35€, which is a rip-off. In summary a really good experience, a little bit pricey, but was nice.

We stayed at Adalya Elite Lara between June 6–13. The hotel feels quite basic, with a more casual vibe rather than a true luxury experience. The furniture in the room shows visible signs of wear, which takes away from the overall comfort. Unfortunately, the room did not have a Smart TV — just a regular one, so streaming apps like Netflix or YouTube were not accessible. Also, the air conditioning system automatically turns off when you open the balcony door (which is understandable), but it doesn’t turn back on by itself after closing the door — you have to restart it manually every time. On the positive side, everything was clean — both in the room and in common areas. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The hotel grounds are large and beautifully landscaped, with lots of greenery and several pools that create a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. We appreciated the presence of an adults-only pool and a separate dining salon for meals — great features for those seeking a quieter environment. However, it would be a big plus if the hotel also offered adults-only rooms, specifically designed for couples — for example, with a single large bed instead of a second bed intended for a child. The beach is about 300 meters away from the hotel. Another downside: drinks are mostly served in plastic cups, and both soda and beer are available only from dispensers. I was expecting a better selection, especially bottled beer. It’s also worth noting that tourism prices in Turkey have surged this year — we noticed an increase of around 20% compared to 2024. I’m not sure how pricing and marketing strategies are set, but we booked our package in November 2024, and later noticed that in April and May 2025, the same package was offered at a slightly lower price. That was disappointing and made us feel the early booking didn’t offer any real advantage. Overall, a decent experience for travelers with modest expectations, but the hotel doesn’t quite meet the standard of a true 5-star resort.
