Bodrum Holiday Resort & Spa is a classic large-scale Aegean resort designed for an easy, no-stress holiday.
The location by the sea works well, with a private beach and generous pool areas that give the place a proper resort feel. The grounds are spacious and well maintained, though the layout is slightly hilly, which you notice over a longer stay.
Rooms are simple but comfortable and kept clean. Service is friendly and relaxed rather than polished, which fits the overall atmosphere of the hotel.
Food is decent for an all-inclusive resort — plenty of choice, though not particularly memorable. The hotel works best when approached as a casual holiday base rather than a luxury destination.
Overall: a solid option for guests looking for sun, sea and an uncomplicated all-inclusive stay in Bodrum, especially suited to families and relaxed couples rather than those seeking refinement.

Went her for 2nd time, given exactly same room as the previous visit. Place needs a total upgrade, outside flooring extremely dangerous when wet,even though there's signs saying slippery? I slipped 3 time's in 2 days, the 2nd time I jolted my back, 3rd time i glazed my right shin. And I've got no walking issues. If you have problems with mobility then please avoid, it's built on the side of a mountain.
Good points were weather was excellent, bar staff were friendly, house keeping was good. Food good.

Other than the location I wouldn’t recommend this hotel. Paid extra and requested 2 rooms together but was given rooms opposite ends of the hotel. Not good for a family sharing cases! Even though there are hundreds of rooms they refused to put us nearer. One room was in the basement over looking a fire exit!
Rooms are very dated and the only reason this is a 5 star is because of the facilities.
The swimming pool with slides absolutely stinks! It must be near to a sewage plant or something and so many guests were commenting on it. The restaurant is a free for all and you find yourself fighting for a table due to inconsiderate guests sitting on a table of 8 when only 2 of them… it should be better organised by the hotel staff.
On a plus side the food is good and a different selection everyday. The bar and restaurant staff work really hard and I couldn’t fault them.
There is lots of cats roaming freely and the hotel states they are nothing to do with them. When I first arrived we reported a kitten with a severe eye infection but they did nothing. Hotel guests were buying eye treatments and all sorts trying to help. We contacted a local charity to help who arrive to take the cat to the local vets. The hotel staff would not allow her to pass to collect! My partner handed over the kitten and then all of a sudden the staff kicked off! It was agreed that the kitten would be returned after treatment (had its eye removed!) but the hotel now will not have it back! Overall a very unpleasant experience.

Ahhhh, I LOVED this place!
We went as a group of 3 women (early 30's) for a week in mid june.
We had a downstairs family room right by the door which was ideal so minimal walking.
The rooms decor is a bit tired but the beds are comfy and the rooms are clean with fantastic air con. Our shower was a disability one and the floor did get soaked and didn't drain well but that was one small flaw and not a big deal. We soaked it up with towels and had them replaced each day without fuss. The hallway can be a bit loud but not really an issue for us.
Its definitely a family friendly resort and the size of the place is HUGE frankly. You wouldn't need to leave if you didnt want but we did :)
There's free water everywhere, there's always a bar open somewhere that you can get a drink. Cocktail menu is a bit small but the staff will make up what you ask for if they have the Ingredients. Ice cream chillers by the pool etc.
The pools are large and clean. They run entertainment in the main pool throughout the day which is for kids and adults and quite funny to watch ( we didn't join in but enjoyed spectating!) The sunloungers are a mild irritation. There are enough sun lounger, ACROSS THE WHOLE RESORT. But you will find it difficult to get one if you arrive any later than mid morning. They are somewhat hot on removing towels if they stay empty though. Same applies for the beach but these fill faster so bear that in mind and go down early.
If you come back around lunch and mid afternoon, you'll likely get a spot. At least, you will in mid june. There was a heatwave, so the pool was actually a lovely temp but we did hear that the week prior the water was still pretty cold!
The staff are all really friendly and helpful. You obvs get the ones who come round for photoshoots, watersports etc but they aren't pushy and tend to remember faces after a while and they genuinely just stop to chat.
The watersports are so worth it though, really really fun and all on site!
The beach is clean and sand/pebbly and the water is turquoise its beautiful. You can hire the beach cabanas for a day +service to your cabanas, but its 2 to a cabana.
The food is tasty and follows a general routine, but there is a wide variety, pizza, burgers, hot dogs, the main restaurant has a HUGE selection.
Didn't visit the water park but looked great and is set away from the hotel to avoid noise.
The bar at the bottom put on some great entertainment and music, including a live band and saxophonist during our stay, its a good scene. Security are always on hand too but it doesnt get rowdy.
We felt completely safe at all times at this resort.
There's a busstop that goes directly into bodrum center station for 3 euro each way or you can grab a taxi which is like 10 euro each way and takes about 15 mins.
Reps are available in their own little section at various times in the hotel, but we didn't book anything through ours we did it in the town which was cheaper and a bit more authentic we felt. (Boat trip mainly - highly recommended! 20 euro each for a whole day and lunch)
There are lots of stairs and steps at this resort, its set into the cliff really.
The jetty's are also very nice and clean and you can jump off and swim in the sea.
I havnt done an all inclusive holiday in years and honestly I fell in love with this place, im bringing my family back next year.
We also did a photocopy and the spa whilst here which were both also fantastic!
It was busy but not sardines and i would say it looked like one of the nicer resorts in the area.
Very safe, very easy, very beautiful and affordable.
We loved it here! A week was not enough!

We stayed at this hotel and were absolutely delighted! The room was very clean, with daily housekeeping — not a speck of dust. The view from the balcony was breathtaking, truly unforgettable — a real paradise!
The food at the restaurant deserves special praise: the variety of dishes was impressive! Every day there were fresh seafood options — shrimp, calamari, octopus, and fish. Meat lovers won’t be disappointed either. And the number of delicious desserts and cocktails was overwhelming — so many choices!
The staff were always smiling, attentive, and friendly. The atmosphere was very warm and pleasant.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
