Labranda Mares Marmaris

We have just returned from 11 nights of an amazing holiday for a family of 5. Everything was perfect to the point we cried when we left. The staff were amazing, Eros, Ceren and the rest of the entertainment team work so hard to entertain guests all day and night. Darts was the highlight of day time events and then later on during our stay they started doing more games in the pool which was great. The location is stunning, you have the best of both worlds- 25mins walk either side you have Icmeler and Mamaris. The dolmus is right by the hotel entrance so easy to get to either resort. The hotel is clean and the pool guys work so hard throughout the day. The food was good for us, kids struggled a little but always found something. The beach bar food is cooked fresh for you and the burgers are fab for the kids. We ate out a few times during our stay, found some beautiful traditional Turkish restaurants in Icmeler and Marmaris in the back street which we so cheap for 5 of us. I would definitely recommend doing a jeep safari and a private boat trip for the day, a brilliant way of exploring the area. Its just stunning 😍 We will miss this hotel, we've made some wonderful memoriers. Thank you Labrand Mares.

Great hotel and staff defo reccomend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When we arrived at the hotel, we had fairly high expectations from a 5-star property with an Ultra All-Inclusive concept. Unfortunately, our experience throughout the stay fell far short of those expectations. Considering the price we paid and the concept the hotel claims to offer, we honestly did not expect to encounter this level of service. We were particularly disappointed with the food. The main problem for us was not the variety, but the overall taste and quality. We were dissatisfied with many of the dishes, and some were difficult to eat at all. Having to deal with the same level of food quality every day is simply not acceptable for an Ultra All-Inclusive hotel. One of the most basic expectations during a holiday is to be able to enjoy decent and satisfying meals, and unfortunately, we did not have that experience here. The drinks were also below our expectations. When we saw the Ultra All-Inclusive concept, we expected better-quality options. However, especially when it came to alcoholic beverages, the quality was nowhere near what we would expect from a hotel operating under this concept. Anyone expecting an upper-tier hotel experience may be disappointed in this regard. The spa area was also not up to the standard we would expect from a 5-star property. Unfortunately, we did not see the level of quality or attention to detail we expected there either. The hotel pool is also quite small considering the size and concept of the property. The number of sun loungers and umbrellas is far too low for the hotel’s capacity, making it almost impossible to find a place around the pool. It seems that you have to arrive early in the morning and leave a towel on a lounger just to secure a spot. We were told that towels would be removed if people reserved loungers but did not actually use them, but we never witnessed this being done. As for the hotel beach, entering the sea in the designated swimming areas is quite difficult. The seabed is rocky, and the areas were not properly cleared of seaweed, which made getting into the water uncomfortable. Overall, I believe there is a significant mismatch between the hotel’s 5-star Ultra All-Inclusive concept and the quality of service it actually provides. In our opinion, the problem was not just one particular issue, but rather the fact that the overall quality fell short in several different areas at the same time. That said, the staff deserve credit. Most of the employees were friendly, attentive, and genuinely tried to help as much as they could. However, the staff’s efforts alone cannot compensate for the shortcomings in the hotel’s overall quality and service. Unfortunately, based on our experience, this is not a hotel we would choose again.
