well, 6 o'clock next evening not having seen the sun yet in our dark wee hole, finally moved.

though they could be quite dark due to the greenery.

We didn't venture too far from the hotel at night as it was quite dark.

One criticism is that I found the rooms a bit dark esp when getting ready on a night.

At night some of the streets were deserted and really dark and we didn't feel particularly safe.

but quite dark and I would have preferred a room on a higher floor.

1st room we were given was on th ground floor, dark and too small for three people.

Lights directly outside rooms were broke, hard to find key hole in the dark.

Moved room on first day, as we felt the room we were allocated was dark, and oppressive.

We were then taken to a dark dungeon room which had no natural light or balcony

although there still wasn’t a view (only of people peering in from the hotel next door) as the rooms are lined perpendicular to the beach, at least you had some light whereas the ground floor looked rather dark below us.

but all others are a bit dark & gloomy particularly the ground floor rooms because they don't get direct sunlight and the planting scheme.

Just returned after 2 weeks at Tropicana Beach,
Staff are amazing, everything is clean, food is very good, great atmosphere, very friendly and relaxing,
Personally I don’t normally visit in the high season due to temperatures and lots of children

Receptionist sugar is so friendly and chatty staff are helpful.

The bar serves drinks in glasses which we liked as much more environmentally friendly than other places we’ve stayed.

but they are friendly giants and looked after by locals and tourists.

The staff couldn’t be more helpful or friendly if they tried and we felt we received exceptional service.

but had everything you would need .Maid came daily so apartment kept lovely and clean , and a nice balcony with a view of the pool .All staff extremely friendly and on hand to provide anything you might need .

All the staff are really friendly and willing to help with anything you need.

The staff are incredibly friendly and the rooms immaculately clean.

These boys took care of us every day
Reception and the gardenman as well very friendly

Nice beach next to the hotel.

Staff all amazing and very friendly, food is lovely we had breakfast most days snacks at lunchtime and some lovely evening meals.

Always so so friendly, accommodating and remember your orders etc.

The staff were so friendly, kind and helpful from the reception staff and manager to bar and waiting staff and cleaners, they were all so helpful and interested in chatting.

but still had a friendly, warm welcome from the reception lady.

All the staff are very friendly and go out of their way to help.

All the staff from reception, maintenance, bar staff/waiters, cleaners & pool/beach maintenance are lovely, friendly, and very respectful.

Initially we were given two poor rooms, one right at the front which was so noisy and one downstairs 106 which smelt of sewage.

They requested a ground floor and we're give a terrible room where they had to go down some stairs and outside their room was the cleaning cupboard, it was old and disgusting.

They just need to clean the sun beds and beach, filthy.

next day people jumping about in must have been sewage.

We had requested a quiet room twin beds and non smoking several months when we booked 4 months ago.

Hotel wifi is poor and only works in the pool area, room size and decor is terrible, and the beds and sheets were disgusting as there were bugs in the room.

We were a little upset, well quite a lot actually, to be put in the filthy Siesta apartments nextdoor (see separate review) on our first night as Tropicana were full,

The utensils were stored in a fusty smelling cupboard under the sink - certain items, such as the drainer provided, had black mold on them and the whole room was worn and tired.

They try to add extras on to your bill and when we challenged it, it turned nasty and the food was terrible.

Was absolutely disgusting threatening attitudes!

We stayed in room 119, it was down the basement right below the poolside toilets and there was a bit of a smell in the bathroom, so on returnin I would ask for a ground or first floor room, facing the pool would be ideal.

Gumbet didn't impress me - it was dirty and smelt like a urinal in places,

but chose to speak in Turkish to one another about it, it appeared that they had given our actual room allocation to someone else, so they moved us into a 1 bed apartment "for the night" (Room 101) at the bottom of the steps and one which looked like furniture was dumped into there and an apartment which they didn't usually book people into (even the kitchen had a bad odour).

Our Thomas Cook rep told us on arrival that Gumbet was a total dump and she was right, a nasty cheap version of Blacpool.

Had fun spotting the most disgusting jetsam in the shallow bay - (a used condom with a knot in it).

One problem we did notice was that the drains in our bathroom were quite smelly,

however when we arrived in our room 103, we found mould on the ceilings and awful smells from the drains and bathroom.

well my holiday was booked for 11 aug this year, booked 8 months ago, The manager seems to overbook, then contacts the holiday companies to say they cannot accommodate guests, i think this is a disgusting managerial way to run a hotel.

They really made the effort to make you welcome and this goes for all the staff at the hotel.

However it is looked after so well by Yunis and his fabulous team!

Staff were lovely and as ever yunis was great .

Staff were great very polite and helpful and nothing too much trouble !

Wonderful staff, absolutely everyone was a credit to the hotel.

A big thanks to all staff at the Tropicana for an enjoyable stay .

Yunis and all the staff are very polite and caring.

I have just returned from a week at Tropicana Beach with my son and cannot thank the staff enough for their efforts during our stay.

Ticks all the boxes for us, stayed here 3 times, lovely pool, lovely room and ALL the staff are wonderful, especially the reception staff who are exceptional , AND the Manager “Yunis”, who always goes “above and beyond” to keep the guests happy,
I have been coming to Bodrum/Gumbet for over 20 years….

It’s very family friendly and the staff are lovely.

Tropicana Beach Hotel

Amazing time, what can I say more, amazing staff, amazing barmans, amazing games (darts, shows, beer pongs).

The animation team is good, special thanks to Hilal, both Teos and Ufuk for making sure we don't miss any of activities.

This was the most beautiful holiday I have ever had.Hotel is in the nature green and fresh.Musics and activities are so fun.Foods are delicious and there are so many variety.The sea is clean,there are nice watersport activities.

Every day and night they have organized wonderful activities and dance clubs.

I forgot to mention We loved all the water sports and boat trips they provided at the resort.

I really enjoyed everything in the hotel 
We where family in different ages and activities suits everyone.

He probably didn’t realize with what little enthusiasm the 2 animators went through the motions.

Wifi is disconnected sometimes which is inconvenient.The food is also amazing and has good variety.Different activities every day for kids and adults

The pool games, darts, parties in the evening just wow.

Four swimming pools , place where you can simply read a book and enjoy piece or have fun joining water activities.

You can do so much activities in the hotel, the view is really really amazing !

The location of the hotel is close to entertainment centers, The animation team of the hotel was friendly and fun.

I spend time on spa center on massage and witam the best fitness trailer, amaizing Was infiniti pool and all activity by trailer, I'll back

One evening there was Turkish folk dance which a great cultural experience.

From infinity pool to watersport activities in the sea over eating and drinking all day long 😅😊…
Special thanks go to Verdat and Özcan for making the best cocktails (even could create our own) and treating us really well 😊👍!

High level service, very helpful and friendly staff.

Lovely hotel, staff very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

We had an amazing time and the staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful.

The food is good, animator staff is really amusing and friendly.

The staff are very friendly and welcoming .

The staff were all very friendly and helpful.

And the entertainment team was so friendly and kind specially the Ufuk, Ege, Sevval.

Food is great considering it is all inclusive and the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Thank you very much to the friendly staff who work hard to ensure that guests rest as comfortably as possible.

Our room was very clean, service top, staf was very friendly en food realy good when you eat local kitchen.

There is a very small and poor choice of food in comparison to other five star hotels.

Only mp3 music
Water leaking in bathroom
Very very poor wifi signal

The customer service was extremely poor and not at all responsive.

The worse thing with this hotel is the cleanings and customer services being really poor.

The food is extremely limited and of a poor quality, we are out at least half of the time.

There are no details for towels, opening times for ice cream ect its very much find out from other guests which is very poor.

This issue was not helped as the English from the reception staff is pretty poor, once we got back this stage

but v.low turnout (poor advertising maybe?)

The bar choices were pretty poor - no whiskey, no brandy, no bubbly.

Overall a good holiday that could of been excellent if not for the poor service provided at reception & lack of entertainment in the evening.

Another aspect of disappointment in addition to the very poor reception service was the treatment by the bar-staff and less so the restaurant staff.

staff over worked thats why in my eyes there not bothered tired and obnoxiously ignorant.i mean one poor lad was here for 16 hours yawning while serving (professional) not.

however all of the food is ridiculously tasteless and poor at best.

poor English, don't like the English, don't seem to enjoy their jobs.

Very poor no charisma no get up and go and no idea of fun no entertainment. SHOCKING.

When this holiday was orginally booked I read some poor reviews.

The only negative was the bed and pillows, they were not the best, the housekeeping was also a bit poor

Every night we had a perfect shows, concerts, discos.

Fantastic holiday as a couple, the animation team in particular couldn’t do enough for me!

Ege and entertainment team great, bar staff lovley and great views, rooms a**** 
Town close by taxi 
Drinks good 
Lovely beach 
Cleaning staff helpful
Welcomng and clean 
Food ok

This was our second visit to Club Blue Dreams and we are already looking forward to our third.Amazing views, good varied choice of food and great entertainment,

Entertainment team is very active.They have beautiful dances and funny activities.I loved the views of the hotel also our room has a great view.The hotel is so close to Bodrum city center.

The animation team have been brilliant, they are lots of fun and make you feel so welcome!

The entertainment team are great at getting you on the dance floor and doing things you maybe wouldn’t usually do before!

The entertainment team is practically nonexistent.

And the animation team hold entertainment for all ages.

Staff was very helpful, animation team was great, variety food and was delicious.

It was a good experience 
We had good time here 
The staff are very nice 
Gym open and fully equiped with a expert coach 
Animation team always here for the kids !

Entertainment team and the rest of the workers were very good!

It was a really good choice to come this hotel.Everyday was a pleasure.Sea is clear, sun is shining,  weather is great.One of the best thing in the hotel is entertainment team.Most particularly entertainer UFUK is doing a great job.

Our 4-year-old was very excited to do the mini disco every night, for example.

( toaster)the plates were dirty, tables dirty and the whole 10 days we were there, the glass tiling behind the bread was filthy and not cleaned at all.

Be warned, about 50% of the people smoke outside at the restaurant and the smell is really oppressive.

Everything exept the view was terrible sincerely 
I paid almost 5000€ for a week with my family of 6 and everyone is really unhappy 
The food is disgusting exept 2-3 llittle sweets 
We found the room when we came here with unwashet sheets and the next day didn’t even bring us towels and shampoo 
Everything is really unclean
Today they closet the infinity pool area because it was full of kids poop,I couldn’t jump in and take photos because it was disgusting 
Everything thing els just kind of smells really bad

but  it was much older, dirtier and I had a mold in the bathroom.

There are NO non smoking and smoking area.

when you asked the staff about why the bar is closed they would just ignore you and carry on smoking.

The views are amazing the pools are nice 
The food is basic through the day hot dogs burgers pizza etc 
Mediocre foods are night, very hard fruit 
Staff actually ask for money (tips) and cigarettes 
Not very professional 
Not that clean , steps to the kids pools are green with stagnant water , old beds about , mattresses etc
Room never got cleaned or fridge topped up 
Kind of flat being English we came last in service and certain members of staff extremely rude.

The place was just filthy and disgusting.

The room we were allocated on the first night had an awful smell, so they moved us with out question the following day.

On my last day I fell very unwell after eating some rancid

The chairs poolside/beachside were absolutely disgusting.

but darts and afternoon water polo this team are the worst I have seen in the world, they sit at the bar smoking and drinking alcohol when they should be working, they do not arrange any activities, they do not speak to guests, they are all dressed very inappropriately especially with bare bottoms hanging out of shorts constantly in bikinis (they are not on holiday they are being paid to offer a service.

Food was only good was good in the snack bar .. in the main restaurant it was always cold and not good.. also the smell of the food was really bad.. and instead of cutting all the vegetables and cheese you had to wait in the line for them to cut it for you.

All they do is sitting at a bar, drinking and smoking.

but not fresh bread and the butter was expired smell disgusting and taste oily.Than they change the butter.

We had to change our room because of the water leaking in the bath room and the second room with the cigarette smell.

however it was a disappointment at beginning we had booked a standard room, and the room was awful it was so tight and smelt of dampness , we had to pay extra to upgrade to a delux suite which we did.

Firstly our apartment was filthy and we struggled with our cases up loads of steps to it without help.

Two great pools, seperate piers and beaches, the food at the snack bar and especially the buffet is great.

5 stars to the serving staff in the snack bars and bars and in the restaurant, they made our stay amazing.

We filled up at the beach snack bar every day.

Our holiday was amazing after arriving here the main guy in reception couldn't do enough for us he was wondering assisting us to get checked in after a major mishap special thanks to hassan always helping out in the snack bar and main restaurant going above and beyond.

The beach snack bar was super 😊🍔would definitely come back to the hotel.

but this was expected, the buffet restaurant and snack bar accommodated and the food was plentiful, if not a little bit samey by the end of the holiday.

food in restaurant and snack bar was fine and plentiful.. Wi-fi only available near reception

Food was excellent everyday with lots of choices and snack bar was great too.

but the young guy at the snack bar was always the friendliest and happiest guy around!

The lunch and dinner better and snack bar good.

Salad choice is huge and Snack bar is awesome.

but with the snack bar and tea room, there was always a choice.

Food - Snack Bar - Excellent large snack bar open 12-5 daily offering lots of salads, burgers, hot dogs, the very popular waffles and kebab. 6.

A good selection at the buffet restaurant for meals, and there is a snack bar as well.

We also ate at the snack bar which was nice with a beautiful view.

The snack bar offers the usual quick food, pizzas, burgers, chips, sandwiches.

The snack bar was a great hit with the children with a good selection of snack foods the older certainly made the most of it later at night.

Lunch:snack bar does decent range of snacks ( pizza/ Turkish breads/ burger/ salad / chips - super fast service.

Nice Hotel, great Infinitypool, most of the Time the Team did a good Job.

Thank you to all the staff who are courteous and helpful.

THANKYOU  BLUE DREAMS for the best holiday ever.

We loved our waiter Abdurahman ( Wojtek) he was our angel,
Fatma the menager is amaizing , and the main Manager Burak wa so helpfull and nice.

Customer service at reception was dreadful.Its a big resort and you were expected to find your room and no info about hotel facilities.English is not widely spoken and the reception manager kept standing outside for a fag break!

This hotel is one of the Best hotels I have ever visited.Food is great.Ambiance and environment in here is perfect.Weather is so good not so hot Just like I want.Also all the staff are so kind.I Will certainly Come Back.

Very happy with the staff and the entertainment, very friendly and warm.

The hotel had not long been open at this point so it was fairly quiet, all the staff are friendly, the 2nd pool with the music is great to chill to while sunbathing and the bar staff were friendly.

Alfie moon great guy very helpful & do great food ,cocktails staff their are friendly and will go out their way to help.

The reception team were excellent in helping us with a few issues, and all seemed very friendly and willing to help.

Take an extra £300 with you to eat out, we had some delicious, reasonably priced food at local friendly restaurants.

The servers are friendly and very accommodating for your needs.

The Staff and management are generally very friendly and helpful

Special thanks to our lovely waiter Ferhat who is always so polite, friendly and welcoming without being intrusive.

There were always sun beds and a very friendly bar manager.

- Very kind, friendly, and hard-working hotel staff.

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful.

We found all staff to be warm, friendly, and helpful.

The animation team are very fun and friendly and spent great time with us in particular orkun who is super friendly and fun at all times.

The location is great and the majority of the staff were friendly

From the moment we entered the hotel, everyone is very friendly and trying to be helpful.

but for an enjoyable good value holiday in the sun, with nice polite friendly staff and a good location it works really well.

Even in covid times the very friendly staff members serve your food for you and some how I've you a bigger portion than you would serve yourself.

The food served here is of a very poor quality.

Management what ever your poor pathetic response is this review is the experience of a guest/customer which you have no inference over

Al a carte restaurants  are very poor, similarly to the main restaurant staff are useless and can’t even get your order right, food is cold and forget about being brought a drink to your table, we chanced the Italian and the Chinese and on both occasions food was cold and poorly prepared.

The maid service is poor - our bathroom and floors were never cleaned across the whole 11 days.

The maid did a very poor job cleaning we never had the dirty cups washed, the balcony was not swept at all rubbish was not taken the duvet was just left at end of bed, the smoke detector was covered up with toilet paper, paint on curtains and the fridge barely got cold.

but the same every morning, poor in lunch, a bit varies in the dinner time.

The food in the main rooftop restaurant was dreadful, very poor choice and was always cold.Lunch and dinner was served by hand from the staff onto your plate and I mean literally by hand with rubber gloves on .NO UTENSILS were used.This was a normal thing at all salad bars and the burger bar which was very off putting (they said because of covid)

Only the buffet restaurant is open snd the food is really poor.

Entertainment was poor, animation team do not work for their money.

What other cleaning was carried out was quite poor and didn't make a lot of difference!

If you plan to watch some videos on YT, you could forget to do that, internet is very very poor!

but we were constantly battling with them in our room and walls were covered in mosquitoes splats 😳 maids didn’t clear them up either  was disgusting and we were bitten numerous times when in our room 
- poor staff, only attentive to their Turkish guests I.e serving them at bar first and providing them with waiter service 
- al a carte, italian terrible, Chinese even worse. .
