Acanthus Cennet Barut Collection - Ultra All Inclusive

Staff, foods are amazing.

Very well thought out! Excellent service, food, facilities. We did one of the pool side rooms and we loved having a pool to dip into without having to go to the big pool. The food was great! They keep the hotel so clean and it smells so fresh and calming! Definitely was one of the best stays in Turkey on our month vacation!

All the food was superb, and the location was wonderful. The only thing we didn’t like was to dine outside meant you had to share your space with smokers.

See above. A lot of smokers and maybe that depends on the clientele that was staying there that week. It’s too bad there’s not a non-smoking section outside. Would you could have breakfast or dinner without smoke.

Hotel was clean, right at the beach, rooms were clean and comfortable. Beach was kept clean, bar service available right to your sun bed. Buffet restaurant had really good food and lots of choices, it didn’t feel crowded even at busy times. We’ve tried also Roka restaurant, beautiful setting and also good food. Some of the evening entertainment was at very high level, we especially enjoyed Michael Jackson show, but all the other ones were fine too. Quick and efficient bar service at the beach and around pool area and during the evening shows. The hotel is mostly catered for adults, not much happening for kids, at least from what we saw, very tiny kids pool, no slides, no kids food corner at the buffet, restaurant even had a separate area no kids/ no phones.

Few minor details, we didn’t love the bathroom, it was right off the entryway, not really separated by the door, so when you had to use the bathroom at night it was quite noisy. We also didn’t like smoking around the pool, so we mostly used the beach.

The staff are amazing friendly and super attentive. They always greet you with a smile. The All inclusive was the best, you never had to worry about what wasn’t included as they have often at other resorts. The food was amazing every day, from breakfast with fresh omelets to lunch by the beach restaurant and to dinner! The desserts were heavenly:) The beach was so beautiful and we spent our days lounging there. There was also a QR code system where you can order drinks to the beach which was super convenient!

The room view wasn’t really that great. It looked onto alot of old apartment buildings- however we were happy that we were on the quieter side without hearing the loud shows. Didn’t like the highly chorinated pool, you can smell it from a distance therefore we never enjoyed swimming there. It’s a very strong smell and we had not experienced this elsewhere before. The shows were also a bit too loud perhaps not good acoustics but the performances and shows were good.

The a la carte restaurants. Roka was the best.The all-inclusive was really premiumThe service at the beach and pool

The evening's "luxury party" featured an unpleasant situation, as provocative-dressed dancers were performing on the tables while several children were present and watching.

Food was fabulous! Best buffet! A'la cartes were also really lovely! Maison Plage for breakfast is amazing!Service was mostly wonderful Everything is included pretty much - minibar restocked with drinks and snack daily!Fab cocktails!You have a number to whatsapp for guest services and they are fab very responsive and nothing is too much trouble!

Service wasn't always genuinely friendly and consistent - mostly good but just not amazing all the time! Did feel like the hotel and service was geared towards German clientele. We were always spoken to in German first the menu options and food choices seemed to indicate this too.Honestly - not a massive one but the layout is a little strange - like round the pool the entrance/exits to the pool were in odd places and because of the layout of the buildings where the rooms are you can end up facing other balconies and the evening entertainment is quite loud and disruptive if you don't enjoy it. That would be the case in most of the rooms I think perhaps other than the swim up rooms.The evening entertainment was a little bizarre - very OTT but I couldn't say it wasn't entertaining! A lot of costumes strobe lighting dancers etc

Everything was great: the food, the room, the cleaning personnel, the ambience, the beach, the sunbeds, etc.

We had a great time here but If I were to say something needs improving it would be:- the outside pool is not heated(for the colder months)- although the children access is not permitted in the indoor pool they were always present, not only that but they brought inflatable water beds and were super noisy. But this is not the hotel’s fault.

Our first week in the hotel was just excellent! I thought I have finally found what I needed for my holidays in Antalya region. The hotel is small, the guests are very decent and respectable, there is no loud gatherings and parties, food is excellent, good spa, indoor pool, nice beach, the staff is super good - a very good place for a relaxing break!

However when the Easter Weekend came the hotel turned into something very different - last 2 nights of our stay they perfomed super loud singing shows of mediocre performers. It was not possible to get to sleep, the building was shaking. I beleive this place has opportunity to decide what they want to be - a nice relaxing holiday place or a night club. Why does the show need to be that loud? Why does it need to go up to 11pm? The guest relations could not answer these questions and just informed us that we need to tolerate this bacchanalia till 11pm. There is no sense in returning there, as there are plenty of other noisy places with larger territory and more fascilities.

Right on the beach, excellent choice and quality of food and drinks. Very friendly and helpful staff. Gorgeous view from the sea view rooms.

Air conditioning not working at the end of March (temperarure during the day was 29 degrees) room was too hot to sleep. When notified reception they said it is still winter and air conditioning will only be reset to cooling mode later. Pool is not heated.

Exceptional hotel. Modern, great design and facilities. Perfect location, on the beach. Food was exceptional. Staff very attentive.

We did enjoy our stay here! Hotel is beachfront, got loads of facilities, 24h service for food and drinks, view is amazing! And most of staff are nice and helpful. especially Ceylan and Fahart, they are super friendly and attentive. We will definitely come back again!

Got an unpleasant experience in snack bar though, I was there first, no one served me, assumed they were busy. But then they served two ladies arrived after me, after that I had be served. Can tell the attitude towards me was apparently different. Not sure whether due to my race. Like I mentioned, most staff are super nice, just few of them really got me upset a bit.

- staff service;- deserts like in all Baruts - beautiful and most importantly almost all are delicious (those who vacation in Turkey regularly will understand);- choice of meat dishes;- quality of cocktails and taste;- the welcome and complimentary desserts in the room were amazing;- fitness zone was perfect;- and etc.?

- absent salmon on breakfast (only sandwich with egg and salmon)

Spacious rooms even of the cheapest category. Very good quality of the materials and furniture. There are swim up rooms which give you more privacy, and have a pool access (not heated). Very good cuisine, plenty of options, variable dishes every day, fresh veggies. Great variety of alcohol drinks, cocktails and alcohol free cocktails!Exceptional SPA, we took massages every day, they worth it (ask for a discount). Small but clean and nice hammam, steam room, sauna. There are only 4 beds in the relax room, guests leave their stuff on them and go to the sauna, while others can’t use them.There is a promenade along the coast, so you may go for a pleasant 20 min walk to Side. Personnel is very nice.

Almost all food, especially desserts, contained lactose, so I couldn’t try cakes or ice cream, my only option was a hard mini cake with nuts. Same with the desserts and 90% of dishes in a la carte Restaurants. Allergens were specified for each dish, though there is no menu with the alternative options, so you don’t know about them until you ask. I asked if they have lactose free yogurt on breakfast, so some guy came back to me in 5 min with a plate of yogurt.Having the inventory to play badminton, or beach paddle, or boccia on the grass would be nice. As there were no many activities besides spa and short concerts. And the music in the bar was turned off early (about 10:30 pm?). Personnel explained that this is the “Hotel Concept”. So there hardly is a room for change ?‍♀️May be add a note in the SPA with instructions: be quite in hammam, and don’t “reserve” beds in the relax room if you don’t use them in the moment. It’s anti-relaxing experience when you need to argue about that ?

Great food, friendly stuffs, helpful children care, comfort spa!Great food:International dishes everyday, and has 3 nights of a week with different themes, like Turkey, Asia, seafood. What we like most are Turkish food.Friendly stuffs:The stuffs in restuarance and cafe are very friendly.The personal assistant tries to solve all your problems. The Christmas eve activity is exceeded our expectations. Helpful children careMonday to Saturday 4.5 hours children care, very helpful. If it can be prelonged to 6 hours (covers lunch time), even better!Comfort spa:The massage is professional.I think they do want to bring the best experience to guests from their hearts!

The activities are not that much, maybe because it's winter time. If it provides more shows, even better. Everyday they have fishes, but only Wednesday have shrimp.

It was modern and food was nice, clean

Not very welcome spa people, they don't like you if you don't book a massage with you. The sweet cakes, etc in the coffee shop are old and not nice, in other hotel this is much nicer, I would not pay full price for the hotel but not season is very good

We found this hotel by accident in a search for a replacement hotel as we had a really bad experience when we arrived at our Beldibi hotel. I booked our vacation as it was my partners birthday and Acanthus Cennet Barut saved the day. Since arriving at the hotel and walking through the main door it was an immediate feeling of absolute luxury. We loved our stay and cannot recommend this hotel enough. The staff were always amazing and friendly, the room and comfort level were also luxurious, housekeeping staff were awesome and polite. The food and the choices daily exceeded our expectations.

Hotel and facilities faultless. Chefs / Sous chefs hanging around the food hall at times were a little ignorant and we didn't really understand why they were there.

Very nice hotel, not too busy, nice location and seaside, clean, great for relaxing stay

Really really cold main swimming pool (in the end of October). Which is a shame - it was so cold we could not enjoy it, although the pool itself is very nice

On the positive side, the food was outstanding, with impressive variety and quality. The hotel's grounds are compact yet thoughtfully designed, offering plenty of space without feeling crowded and many well-placed relaxation areas. The buffet area has ample seating, so there are no queues, and the tables are perfectly set with cutlery. The rooms are fresh and comfortable, with excellent soundproofing and thorough cleaning.The beach is spacious and well-suited for this type of hotel, with comfortable loungers and umbrellas set far apart, plus designated adult-only areas. There are very few children around, which adds to the peaceful atmosphere. The only minor improvement I’d suggest is updating the beach towels. The hotel is a solid 5-star experience, and my comments are just as a recommendation. Plus, the promenade is perfect for leisurely walks.We would definitely come back!

We had a great stay at this hotel, but there are a few areas for improvement. The entertainment shows could be more varied, and the table tennis setup, with just one table and basic rackets, could be better—you'll need to bring your own for a proper game and wait until the table is free. The most disappointing aspect was the breakfast box provided for our trip to the airport. It contained simple white-bread sandwiches, muffins, and bananas, but lacked napkins and water. A very poor offering for a high-level hotel—not the best final gesture.

Meals from buffets were varied per dayClean roomEverything! What a great hotel!

Only one small remark: duvet was too narrow for the bed.
