Rixos Premium Göcek Adult Only

We had a 2 weeks stay October 2025 and it really was delightful. Never been to Gocek, never been to Turkey before so was a little apprehensive. No need, from check in, a seat on the sofa and a couple of G&T’s, an explanation of the hotel’s grounds and amenities, to a buggy ridden to our apartment. We asked for a ground floor, quiet, end room, which indeed we were allocated. The Lumin app is very handy and always answered promptly and professionally. The rooms are lovely from a re-stocked minibar everyday, crisps and coffee pods. The bathroom is quite luxurious but I felt the towels could do with being replaced now. Beds were comfortable and changed daily. We had a small terrace which would have been great with a couple of sunbeds so we could relax and sun bath at our room. The pool was lovely, but as at every hotel you go to towels were being put down early in the morning and then not being used for hours, not sure what the answer is to this issue. It wasn’t a major problem as we visited late in the season. The pool team were fab, as soon as the bar opened a different concoction was offered every day. Haken would ask me “a Jenny cocktail - nice and a Bob cocktail (a bottle of beer)”. The beach - it’s man made and reminded me of our golf bunkers at home! It’s very narrow and far too many sunbeds crammed next to each other. The staff work very hard to service everyone and the boat trip to and from the beach is fun. Was not for us but many guests did enjoy using it. The food - Breakfast is fine, buffet and self service. We are not a lover of buffet food for evening as we like to order and be served. The only options were People’s, which we were told could only be frequented 3 times per week. We did eat here most nights, but I guess that was due to being end of season and not that busy, could see it being enforced during high season. There are also Italian, Fish and Japanese restaurants , all with an additional charge. There is a patisserie and a Starbucks on-site. Ice cream and water fridges are located by the pool for you to help yourself. The only issue we had was in the fish restaurant, admittedly there were only 5 tables booked, we had to ask for a drink, cutlery, extra bread etc. One of the guest relations spoke to us and said we should be drinking Raki with the fish, we said we hadn’t been asked. The staff are most helpful and nothing seems to be too much trouble. I was a little concerned at the hours some of the staff were working, they seemed to be there from early morning to late at night. I know you can enjoy your job but you all need rest and a break away from the workplace. It’s all useful, and appreciated, to learn a few words in Turkish, even though the pronunciation can be difficult. I know it’s AI but please take Turkish Lira for tipping, a few pounds to us means such a lot to the staff. Would I go back - you bet I would, loved it. Thank you Rixos
