The most important and biggest drawback is that this hotel is located in a completely isolated area – Side is 25 km from the main sightseeing spots. Nearby, there's only a pharmacy and a supermarket (three of which are located in the same building). The hotel rooms need renovation and are definitely not 5-star standard, more like 3-star. Frequent power outages and noisy generators are especially bothersome at night, so much so that the noise woke us up in the middle of the night. Not only was it loud, but it was completely dark. The hotel is heavily geared towards Russian guests; despite half the hotel being Polish, none of the staff speaks a word of Polish. Worse still, with a few exceptions, it was also very difficult to communicate in English, as everything was in Russian, including the entertainment staff. The staff was not very friendly, except for the luggage carrier, the dining room manager, and the guest relations lady. Everyone else seemed to be there as a punishment and was rude, including the entertainment lady, who was off-putting simply by her appearance and demeanor. The attractions were very poor; there was only one show worth seeing throughout the week. The beach was sandy and pebbly, and I wouldn't recommend entering the water on the rocks without shoes. If you've made it this far, there are two positives: a fish restaurant, which you could book for an evening at, and a free 15-minute massage, also included in your stay. The hotel also offers shops and services, such as a hairdresser and an arcade.

I recently stayed at Cenger Beach Hotel and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The hotel itself is beautiful, clean, and well-maintained, with excellent facilities including a relaxing spa, large pool area, and easy access to a stunning private beach. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re looking to unwind or stay active.
What really stood out to me was the amazing animation team – they were full of energy, incredibly friendly, and made each day fun and engaging. From morning activities to evening shows, they kept the atmosphere lively without ever being intrusive. They really went above and beyond to make sure all guests felt included and entertained.
Overall, I highly recommend Cenger Beach Hotel for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing vacation. I’ll definitely be returning!

When booking we were originally given 2 rooms, we had requested a single room for our family of 5. Upon arriving we were then given a room to accommodate all of our family.
It's our first time experiencing this hotel and an all inclusive holiday and we have been happily taken care of. The animation have really helped with keeping our young son and daughter entertained. I would like to send a huge shout out to Ahmet and the Animation team who have been very kind and helpful to us. Our kids have come away learning a few different phrases in different languages...

Very nice hotel, the room we had was very large. Food varied, once it was delicious, once two days in a row practically the same. We really enjoyed the food at the beach bar. The gentleman serving this bar was very friendly and always smiling. The beach is very clean, a nice gentleman constantly cleans and takes care of its cleanliness. The hotel is in a location quite far from the centre of Side, but you can rest peacefully, there are a lot of sun beds on the beach and you will always find a place. There are no crowds which is a plus for us. Near the hotel about 7-9min walk there are shops with prices lower than in Side. There are themed parties every evening and we enjoyed the synchronised dancing in the pool the most, the girls were very talented and danced beautifully. The Las Vegas evening was also fun. Generally friendly staff but you can see that they are overtired. I recommend the hotel.

We had such a wonderful stay at the hotel! The atmosphere was great, and the entertainment made our holiday even more enjoyable. Special thanks to Ikra, the animator – she was so funny, full of energy, and made everyone laugh. She really brought a lot of life and joy to our evenings. Thank you for making our stay unforgettable!
