Barut Hemera - Ultra All Inclusive

We liked everything, especialy sport events and evening shows. It was begining of january and we thought there will be quite and no events. Food was perfect too, a lot of vegetarian and healthy options like avokado toasts. We booked simple rooms, it was about 30sqm.

We do not usually go back to the same hotel twice but as we had such a wonderful time for my 50th in April 2022 we decided to book for April 2024. From the moment you arrive, everything is a breeze from the relaxing check in whilst you have a drink at the bar to the porter bringing your luggage to the room. One of the blinds in the room had telescoped by previous occupants. This was swiftly dealt with to ensure no light pollution and a good nights sleep was had by all. The gardens were as we remembered (beautiful and relaxing) and as our boys are now over 16 we enjoyed both the over 16 area in the buffet restaurant and spent our relaxing days around the quiet pool. I even tried a couple of yoga classes with my wife before breakfast !!. We could always find a sunbed up there. Special mention to Moshin at the quiet pool for is attentive service for drinks. I would say the buffet food has improved somewhat in two years and during the day time we enjoyed excellent food at the beach / entertainment bar, the burgers and salad excellent at the pool burger bar and tasty Italian food for lunch at the quiet pool. A far as drinks go Barut Hemera have extended their range of beers. Along with Efes they have Becks (5% not like the rubbish sold in UK) Budweiser Budvar and Turkish Antiochs, all served in bottles. The cocktails were all outstanding especially Espresso Martinis. Also found a new favourite that I have never had before, a Manhattan. A wide selection of premium branded spirits also available. All the staff were excellent, to many to mention but a few who made the holiday special aswell as Moshin were as follows : Cunyet at the Meltim bar - He now has a blue shirt so maybe a promotion from our previous visit ? Very funny and engaging. I showed him a picture of our visit two years ago and immediately asked my wife if she would like a Hugo cocktail without her saying anything..amazing that he remembered -He made an impression on us last time and we must have done the same lol !! Ali who seemed to be everywhwere and served us on our arrival with late snack, at the pattiserie and also at the Turkish ala carte on the last night. Stella a the pool bar - always service with a smile and lastly Ozge in the lobby bar who served us with the Manhattans - what a lovely young lady who looked after us on the many nights we had our final drinks of the evening. Well done Team Barut Hemera keep up the good work and hopefully we make it a hat-trick of visits in the next year or two. Many, many thanks !!

Whilst this my was first "all inclusive" experience, regardless of the style, I have to say this was an immaculate experience... Wonderful choice of restaurants, perfect service with very attentive staff and in a personalised manner, and tasty food choices... the venue is remarkable, with plenty of pool areas and safe sporting points... I do not think I will try any other "all inclusive" resort, this is just too good!
