The great things about the Yazici Club Turban are the friendliness of the staff, the expansive wooded campus/grounds, the very extensive selection of dishes from their buffet main restaurant and the variety of things you can do within the grounds or immediately nearby. It is conveniently located whilst being secluded with security access at the main gates. The grounds run down the side of the hill and straddles a promenade/beach pathway and so includes a section of beach exclusive to hotel guests It is worth mentioning that there is a hill on which the residences 12 to a block, are located and so you get a work out getting to and from the communal areas and your rooms, but when you are staying all inclusive, you probably need this. Would highly recommend!

Great hotel. Very large and very busy the week we went (Ramadan Festival)
Book the villa rooms away from main hotel for some quietness away from the crowds. Be aware music played around the pool all day and until 12 midnight in various outdoor venues every night. Sometimes loudly

We stayed at this hotel for 1 week in April 2024 and had a great time. We usually do air bnb so all inclusive was a new and slightly strange experience for us.
The hotel is located 1.5-2 hours from Dalaman airport. The location is absolutely stunning, in a pine forest surrounded by mountains.
All staff were amazing. So friendly, efficient and lovely people working super hard all the time.
The food is great and there is a huge variety. There is also a cafe that serves amazing coffee.
We stayed in one of the bungalows with a beautiful view. But be aware the walls between the rooms are very thin. We had noisy neighbours who were also smoking non stop on their balcony which definitely ruined it for us. The room itself was quite dated but that didn't really bother us.
The beach is ok, but not amazing, but good for kids as there are no waves. The pool is nice looking, very cold in April though.
We walked next to the water to Icmeler one day and it was a beautiful walk.
All in all we had a great holiday at this hotel. Not sure all inclusive or hotels are our thing but it was great to try and I don't think we could have tried it out at a better place.
Thank you to all the amazing staff! Teşekkürler! Türkiye is a beautiful country with wonderful people.

We stayed in this hotel for 4 days. (two people) We enjoyed our stay and at fist I thought I will give a 5 star but time passing changed our ideas about this hotel a lot.
The first thing is about the room they gave us;it was a very old room with only the bathroom being renovated.What they showed us in the photos was very different with what they gave us. There was a tiny old closet in the room in which only one of us could hardly put their belongings. I did not even unpack as there was no space.
When we entered the room, I got shocked as the room had not been cleaned with lots of dust on the surfaces and the ground not being vaccumed. We informed them and the cleaners came to clean while we were sleeping!
The next thing is about the location of the rooms. They gave us a room very far from the main building (1840) which needed us to climb a lot and walk a lot every time we needed to take st from the room. It was tiring actually even though the scenery was nice.
We stayed in hotel before the national holiday in Tukey (Bayram) starts and it was busy. One day we wanted to have lunch closer to the beach and we waited for 40 minutes just to get fries and a small lahmacun. Please see the photo attached.
We both developed some sort of rashes that we guess it might have been from the bed sheets, but of course we cannot be 100% sure.
It is a nice hotel in general but I believe they cannot handle large number of guests and the quality of everything gets lower.
The highlight of this hotel is the food; it has very good quality food with a variety of options every day. The waiters and waitresses int he restaurant are very nice and helpful.

We stayed at Grand Yazıcı Club Turban between 29th March and 5th April 2024, 2 adults and 1 child age 7. We also had our parents (grandparents age 80 & 84 staying in a separate room).
About the Hotel - The Hotel is an excellent location. Its about 1,5-2 hours drive from Dalaman Airport. The Hotel is massive and although the season has just started we didn’t feel being on top of each other. There is just so much space and things to see and to do at the Hotel itself. Lots of areas to explore. Our Room was in need of modernisation (in our opinion), but we had everything in the room that we needed and nothing really stopped us from having fun and enjoying ourselves. And the view from the balcony was superb, view straight to the sea! Room 1416. Our parents room 1419 looked like a suite room actually not just a standard room. You can see that the room has recently been redecorated, the furniture looked new and the view was just absolutely beautiful (sea view). The Supervisor (a very pretty Turkish Lady with shoulder length black hair) at the Hotel kindly upgraded our parents room from being initially offered one of the bungalows, but because my father in law struggles walking uphill and downhill, they have been offered a room within the Hotel itself for easy accessing.
Coffee Shop – Its free and was included on our All inclusive package. We spent all our mornings straight after the breakfast at the coffee shop. The lady called Olga was amazing and always very friendly! The rest of the team were absolutely brilliant, I just couldn’t remember all their names but they all were amazing!
The Reception Team - The lady called Lisa (Liza) went above and beyond in helping us move from the original room to 1416. She was absolutely brilliant and no matter how many hundred million questions we had, she never got frustrated with us and was always professional, friendly and super-efficient. We would also like to mention another lady called Rana who was absolutely amazing too! Such a friendly, polite, helpful, just amazingly bubbly person. The Hotel is incredibly lucky to have such a brilliant team working for them, they are certainly great assets to the Hotel !
Pools- There are few pools and water slides and one can always find what is convenient for themselves. Honestly, from the age of a tiny baby to an elderly, you will find the most suitable pool for you.
The Beach- One word- AMAZING! Beautiful blue water, sandy beach, and also got the bar next to the beach where you can grab cold drinks for munchkins and drinks for adults.
Restaurants – Great choice of various Restaurants and great selection of food! Breakfast is being served in the main Restaurant not too far from the Lobby. Special mention to the lady called Betul, she would wave to us with a huge smile on her face and would always always always look after us! This lady and her amazing welcoming personality make families like ours, wanting to come back! But we must say that every single person serving & working at the hotel have always been very helpful, amazing, friendly and just brilliant!
Turkish Ala Carte was superb and worth visiting. Again the staff are absolutely amazing!
To Summarise: I could continue writing so many wonderful things about the Hotel, location, and Marmaris but the truth is, that one must visit and experience how wonderful the place is! It truly is! We got back to the UK this morning and had tearful 7 years old boy who was incredibly sad being back home 😊 and Wanting to go back to Turkey ASAP! Visiting Ismeler, Turunc, Marmaris and the bestiest ORCA Boat Trip (we booked in Marmaris direct NOT Jet2) for the service that we had the tour was simply THE BEST!
We would like to extend our thanks to everyone for making our holiday super special.
One last mention, we feel its people and truly beautiful and rich culture that make Republic of Türkiye so wonderful and special. The hospitality and how welcoming the people are to visitors are indescribable. Teşekkür Ederim!!
Millington Family.
