How did you input the address of the edition? I wasn't able to use the hotel name or address.
Yes that’s the one. I reserved via whatsapp which worked well.

What’s the experience re. elite upgrades here? It sounds as if this place has been at capacity over the past few months

Wondering the same.

October should see occupancy drop off so maybe it'll improve.

I just sent them a WhatsApp to book with my flight details and drop off point. They were quite quick in answering.

I did have to move my trip from late September to late October. Fingers crossed there aren't any new COVID restrictions on international travel that force me to cancel. (coming from the US).

Lots of premium rooms available now for the days of my trip. I'm Titanium and booked as part of Marriott Stars, so definitely hoping for a nice upgrade.

Do let us know (also Titanium), although I feel I myself am looking at next Summer now owing to restrictions

It looks like there is no availability at all starting Nov 1. Do they close for the season?

Correct, this is standard practice and not related to covid

I've been here since Saturday and it's been a fantastic visit. (other than the thunderstorms rolling through this afternoon). All of the wonderful observations made in other reviews are all true. Staff are top-notch, super friendly + helpful, scenery is amazing, beach and pool are lovely. Prices for all food and drink on property are totally reasonable and quality is great. Being the end of the season, the resort is relatively quiet. Can see how lively and fun it would be with a great crowd in the busy season. Also had an amazing time at the spa (myofascial massage); treatment prices are very modest. Would be happy to add more details and answer any questions.

Good to hear - this is on my radar for next Summer! Just to confirm, before it closes for the season, was breakfast still included?

Oh yeah. Absolutely. Breakfast has been especially great. Just order whatever you want.

Sounds good to me! Let’s hope that remains a feature next year, with them as a RC not officially required to provide it as a benefit on award bookings.

Really? I 2018 we had the traditional Turkish breakfast for free but the accompanying a la carte menu was at extra charge. Has this changed? If so, the great breakfast would be even better than before.

Yeah, there were no restrictions whatsoever on what we could order for breakfast. Customized a few items even. Hopefully that is maintained when they reopen next season! The entire resort is lovely with breakfast definitely being a main highlight.
