The hotel

For travellers who aren’t satisfied with a simple ‘one pool, one bar, one restaurant’ kind of holiday, this island escape overflows with choice. Its private white sand beach accompanies seven fabulous swimming pools, including a pirate-themed aqua zone for children to cool off on sun-soaked Marjan Island. It has 12 places to drink and dine, from family-style Italian Vespa to the gastropub food and fun of The Anchor, and the Arabic snacks and shisha of ShoFee Rooftop Bar. And, while the beachfront setting, eforea spa, and contemporary styling of Doubletree by Hilton Resort & Spa Marjan Island attract couples and groups of friends, families get the bonus of the kids’ club’s climbing wall, Arcade Zone, and huge playground with its climbing structures, trampolines and shaded toddler area.

I think maybe a little bit our fault but you only get to eat at one buffet restaurant for you whole stay unless you upgrade to "ultra all inclusive" we didn't but you get really bored after 10 nights, I think they should offer some sort of al a carte choice like Turkey.

I think maybe a little bit our fault but you only get to eat at one buffet restaurant for you whole stay unless you upgrade to "ultra all inclusive" we didn't but you get really bored after 10 nights, I think they should offer some sort of al a carte choice like Turkey. The worst part is they have no towel on dumbed policy, means you have to do the same and get up early to do this. We witnessed families having 4 beds in the shade and 4 beds in the sun. Really spoilt our holiday. The staff were fantastic, special thanks to Edwin, Fiona, Dawood and Meet in the Anchor bar. Read less

The resort had a number of positive features as outlined below: - Warm tasty Cookie on arrival and any time during stay; - Open large playground that children can use at night time; - Kids club open until 10pm; - Beautiful beach with clean, soft white sand and clear sea; - Tasty food (particularly the waffles, pizzas and cakes) although narrow range in some areas (see below); - Good range of pools with fun water slides; - Friendly staff There are a few areas for which we would suggest the following areas of improvement: - There were no chips in the buffet, so we would suggest adding this as its a core staple food item that most kids enjoy; - There were limited 2 to 3 ice cream flavours available. In contrast, we have seen 5 to 6 flavour options available in previous stays at Turkey all inclusive resorts; - The water parks could benefit from adding some smaller slides for 2 to 3 year olds; Overall, a wonderful family resort that ticks most boxes for a great holiday but some suggestions to enhance the experience even further.

The service was excellent wherever you went, whether it be the dining or the pool workers or the housekeeping, nothing was disappointing and this hotel lives up to its name.
