This was our second visit, the first being about 4 years ago. I was really impressed that the hotel standards were still excellent and there were improvements in some areas such as towels for the pool beach area. When we arrived, it was late and a twin room had been booked but we were offered a double on speaking to... more

just returned from our 6th holiday to the arum,and are returning again in october this year, as a repeat guest as most are there are a few little things that may make your holiday alittle more enjoyable, always pay a little extra for a pool view as its worth it. you do not need to get up at rediculous times... more

This was our second stay at the Arum (also stayed August 2006), Holiday was hubby and me plus two 16/17 teenage boys (son and his mate). Plenty of sunbeds on lawned areas but if you are a creature of habit and want to return to the same spot, you may need to 'spread' your towel from around 7 a.m. Poolside... more

superb hotel. Cleansiness could not be faulted. Although not a great fan of buffet style meals, the Arum could not be faulted for choice and quality, and the dining room is spacious, with not one wait during the whole holiday for a table. Staff are very friendly. The grounds are immaculate and superbly maintained. The highlight for us was the... more

The hotel is clean and well maintained. The food is good and varied although British baked beans wouldn't go amiss and some good old sausages and bacon were sorely missed at breakfast. (downside of holidaying in Turkey!) Drinks were on the expensive side (no pun) but probably to be expected in the hotel. The beach was excellent, clean, free sunbeds... more

We booked the arum with high expectations after hearing all the great reviews on this site. The hotel was absolutely immaculate, everything kept clean and to a high standard. The grounds of the hotel have beautiful gardens which stretch from the pool (one of the biggest I've seen) down to the beach. When we first arrived we were given a... more

Just got back from two weeks at the Arum hotel and had a really lovely time. Reading reviews before i went i started geting a little worried, about sunbeds, food and that there would not be many other british guests!!! The food was lovely, not bland at all and something different for everyone. Beef tended to be a little tough... more

Just back from our 2nd stay at the Arum - we went same time last year. Me , husband and 2 girls 15 and 11. We stayed in the apartments and got 2 good sized bedrooms and living area and we went Half Board - wouldnt recommend Self Catering as there is only 2 electric rings and a fridge and... more

Having visited Side several years ago we were looking forward to our holiday--what a let down. The Arum could have been anywhere in the world having no resemblance to Turkish style. Although clean with nice grounds, at temperatures in the 40's the airconditioning is used sparingly. The swimming pools are lovely but the concrete around them makes it is extreemly... more
