Liberty Lykia

If there was a heaven on earth, it would be called Liberty Lykia!! This outstanding resort is the best I’ve stayed at across the world. The location is exceptional, the facilities are unbelievable, it’s like a whole city on its own, and yet the service felt like we were treated as if we were their only customer. From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed, and everything after just blew us away! The bell boys took care of our luggage seamlessly, taking it into our rooms and leaving us to peacefully check in and enjoy the resort. Edilla at reception checked us in beautifully and we were greeted by guest services- Mustafa Can went over and above explaining the resort, booking us into 2 à la carte restaurants complimentary. When we got to our room we were greeted by the lovely Nurcan housekeeping leader than was dedicated to us. Nurcan checked in every single day to make sure we had everything we needed and more!! The Buffett all inclusive restaurant Myra was mind blowing!! I have never in my life seen so much variety of food, constantly being cooked and replenished before our eyes. The different sections covering bakery, starters, salads, hot foods and cold foods, fresh fruit, fresh juices. Oh my goodness it was incredible- absolutely INCREDIBLE! Then you add to that the magical restaurant staff, especially Mr Osman at breakfast who by day 2 already knew my family’s drink preferences and where we liked to sit, was a real gem to us. it felt like we were completely at home! The shows and bands offered by the resort as complimentary- the Kenyan acrobats, African music and Anatolian dance shows- were next level, oh my goodness, the quality of these performances was something I would have paid for! Especially the Kenyan Acrobats, absolutely wow! While the resort itself is extraordinary, it is the kindness of the staff here that is even more beautiful than the resort. When you consider how amazing this place really is, that’s the ultimate compliment.

Very clean rooms, friendly staff, very good kids club. Aquapark is quite big. Food is generally good, especially dinner service and seafood alternatives were top. Selection of products in that department is generally high quality. Drinks, ice creams, snacks, meat products, etc. You get ab extra a la carte restaurant access if you go with booking and that’s quite good. Don’t bother with the free one, main restaurant is better. The water temperature and cleanliness is perfect. Colours of the water is nothing less than bahamas or hawaii. Rooms are spacious enough, nothing fancy but not below expectations. If you’re into parasailing and paragliding it’s the perfect place. Paraglading lands in front of the main restaurant :)

There is no beach bar. There is a bar they call the beach bar, but it takes a fair climb up stairs to reach, and since you are unlikely to get a lounger anywhere near those stairs, it is a long trip. The snack bar is no better. I ended up using a shopping bag to carry sandwiches and drinks back for my wife and me. The water is lovely once you are in, but depending on the day the waves throw fist sized rocks at you on the way. Bring water shoes. The pool is shockingly small and dated, as is the amphitheatre. This is one of the older resorts and it shows. Adult entertainment was mediocre. Over seven nights there were maybe two shows worth watching. Not bad as such, but I have seen far better at cheaper resorts. One personal experience worth adding is the front desk. I booked four to five months ahead. Three weeks before arrival a larger room appeared for only 29 GBP more, but my rate was non refundable and there was no upgrade option, so I messaged the hotel through the booking system. Three days later they replied that the hotel was full, and the room disappeared from availability five minutes afterwards. On arrival I mentioned it to guest relations purely as feedback, not expecting anything. They took me to the front desk, where I was offered the same room for 500 EUR. When I said I would not pay that, the reply was to ask what I would offer. I found myself haggling over a room I had never asked to buy, and left shortly after. Communication could be much better, and language was no excuse here, as I speak theirs fluently.

perfect for families , all inclusive litrally , they respond to all of our requests so fast

the bathroom design is not the best , but still very good

Food, nature.

Rooms, lack of smoking regulation, dated hotel overall. Staff riding cars forces guests to move to the sidewalk make it really annoying to commute around the hotel in most areas as passes are narrow.
