The hotel is luxurious with my favourite part being the pool and spa facilities with its own hamam. The restaurant views are fantastic too. The only downside I’d say of the hotel is the breakfast is fine but not brilliant. As someone from the UK, I’d prefer less cakes and unusual hot items and more cooked breakfast. The coffee isn’t great either but that’s the norm in Istanbul I believe due to access to fresh milk.

I enjoyed this. We went on a quiet day so was very relaxed. Lots of exhibits and a huge amount of stuff for kids and big kids. I used the VR headset experience which I enjoyed. Sadly the shark tunnel was closed today. Some tanks do seem too small for larger fish, however I wondered if this was due to relocation during refurbishment.

Beautiful view of the coastline. The main sight is this phallic looking rock. Worth wandering around this around and enjoying the coast.
