Zeytinada Hotel

The property provides excellent service, clean and spacious rooms, and convenient location near Torba beach. Guests enjoy comfortable rooms, delicious buffet breakfast, and a range of leisure facilities. Some busy streets nearby.

Comfortably appointed rooms, very clean and housekeeping do excellent job. Good linens, but mattress on firm side (needed a mattress topper). Efficient air conditioning in room. Package tour companies are usually at back of the hotel and not overlooking the beautifully tended gardens and pool, unless an up-grade is offered. Building works ongoing on main road side adjacent to hotel, so early noise. Busy with airline personnel on short stop-overs representing a good percentage of their business. Lovely dining areas and really tasty Turkish meals both at breakfast and dinner. Well done the Chef(s)! Only drawback are nuisance feral cats, some even jumping up at the table and then fed by guests from the table. One customer badly scratched! Whilst sympathetic with the plight of stray animals, this should be discouraged within the dining areas, as it is potentially very serious if scratched or bitten. House white wine acceptable, but not truly dry - the red house wine, served cold and quite undrinkable, such a shame. Pity they don't deal with Kavak! Lunch menu very 'international' and NOT with a Turkish bias. Comfortable sun loungers and plentiful. Also a shame it lacks a help yourself chai station throughout the day - thought this was key to Turkish hospitality... Music played at acceptable volume around the pool, but on a continuous repetitive loop which can be tiresome. No sign of any transport to beach from hotel as advertised with Jet2, nor any entertainment whatsoever throughout the whole ten days in May. Some appropriate low-key live music would have been welcome, i.e. Saz or Guitar, or even basic cookery demonstrations. The pros are the colourful garden setting around the pool, the cons are the hugely inflated bar prices, which I suspect help subsidise the wonderful meals. Alcohol, when available, is and has always been, expensive in Turkey but £40.00+ for a bottle of undrinkable, high volume % 'Sherry'-like wine isn't acceptable. Their Rose looked like Ribena! No wonder the Belgians, Brits and Germans stick to the beers! It would have been perfect if the wine situation could have been sensibly resolved, which it wasn't. Migros over the road does a roaring trade with hotel guests! Overall, a lovely tranquil oasis, but needing just a few tweaks.

I stayed at Zeytinada in May 2022. It is a place with character and charm. Ideal for people wishing a peaceful and high quality vacation. It is a compact hotel with a nice design and enviroment. You are surrounded by nature - trees and flowers. Because it is located in the small village next to the sea, air is very clean. You will definitely feel it. Its design is simple but efficient. Everything close to each other. Food is very good. Wonderful buffet breakfast with lots of choice. I'd like to thank the staff of the hotel - Nurtan, Sevda, Leyla, Hasan, Gokay, Alaaddin cheif and other guys whose names I do not remember right now. Special thanks to the cleaning lady whose name I do not know. Cleaning was at the top level. I appreciate your efforts, guys!
