Six Senses Kaplankaya

Six Senses Kaplankaya

What is your IHG Rewards Club status?
Spire Inner Circle Royal Ambassador

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Overall, yes

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked ridge terrace on points, got just that. Hotel was sold out.

How are the rooms?
Unfortunately, too small.
Very nicely located rooms with lots of privacy
Although the hotel has a very reliable buggy service, most of the rooms are walkable from any part of the main area of the resort
Beautifully furnished and all new
Excellent tablet where from buggy to reservations, everything can be reliably ordered
The rooms are too small. We had two big suitcases - no way to open them. This is really unfortunate, as the Kaplankaya area is huge and space is available

How is the exec. lounge?
None.

How was the mini-bar?
Good selection, with high prices. Pack of chips (25 gr) - 8 €

What was your welcome gift?
Bottle of red wine, mezze selection - very delicious.

Did you receive fruit in the room?
Yes. large assortment plate.

What was good?
- Outstanding staff and service: By WhatsApp, you have your personal contact that helps you with everything. Reservations, buggy service etc.
- Outstanding property. Beautifully located
- Excellent food - but only in the hotel restaurants - with great service
- Shuttle service to other areas of the resort every 30 mins
- Nice wine selection
- Prices are generally high, yet we found the hotel restaurants to be good value

What was bad?
- Breakfast is a Corona super spreader event (no precautions at all)
- Prearrival communication was not possible (no replies to e-mails)
- Not the hotels fault, but there is another restaurant on the Kaplankaya site, run by some 20 something "we are from Paris and are creative" people serving badly prepared food at outrageous prices (dinner for two with wine, at more than 500 €!)


Value for $ or Rewards Club Points?
Yes

Would you return?
Not my style of vacation, so I won't. But I can recommend this place.
