About the location
Belek is the star of the Turkish Riviera – the country’s sun-kissed Mediterranean coast. It’s got a king-sized beach that’s perfectly set up to spend your days on, with neat rows of thatched umbrellas lining the golden sand. There’s an assortment of watersports to try, plus lovely shallow waters that are safe for kids to swim in. Backing the beach is a line-up of luxe hotels and swish restaurants, and beyond that, you reach golfing country. There are at least eight golf clubs in Belek, including two mammoth 27-hole greens frequented by high-flyers in the sport. It’s not all glitz and glamour, though; Belek’s town centre has a nice pick of cafes and little shops, plus a weekly traditional bazaar. There are some interesting Roman city walls remaining from the town’s ancient past, while the ancient city of Perge and Roman amphitheatre at Aspendos are a day trip away.

I can't usually find anything negative about this resort, but this year we felt that some things just weren't up to the Serenity's high standard
The hotel was full and we felt the staff couldn't cope. Too many 'important' people walking round looking important and doing very little and not enough waiters and waitresses. On several occasions we waited over quarter of an hour just for some water. Not good enough for a 5 star hotel. For the first time ever the best tables were being reserved by people(mainly German) tipping waiters to save them. Water and wine was put on the table and then nobody appeared, One night for over an hour and a half. We one night tried to sit on 3 different tables to be told that people were coming. They did, but not for a long time.
The rooms weren't cleaned to the usual standard. Possibly again due to fullness of the hotel. Dusty corners, black scuff marks from shoes on the bottom of the bath, nail varnish marks in and around the top of the bath, black scuff marks on the wall of the loo from the bin. I cleaned all of these off after a few days with nail varnish remover. It's really not difficult.
The food is still as amazing as ever.
A special mention goes to, in my opinion the best member of staff in the hotel, Tolga on main reception who always goes that extra mile to help and is always extremely polite and smiling.
A mention also to Nevzet and Mohammet the hardest working and generally so pleasant waiters I've ever seen.
Come on Serenity. We're coming again in May and are really hoping that this time you get back to the standards of precious visits.

We spent a week at this beautiful hotel at the beginning of November and loved everything about it. The rooms and facilities were excellent but what impressed us most about this 5* hotel was the professionalism and friendliness of the staff - both in the hotel and at the golf clubhouse. I am not normally keen on buffet meals but the presentation, quality and choice of food in the main restaurant was the best I have ever experienced. Being on an all inclusive package, we were able to use any of the 3 a la carte restaurants, and again the food and service were superb. The interior of the hotel and the extensive grounds were very well maintained. Although we didn't use the swimming pool, it completely surrounded the building and enhanced the view from the restaurants.It was a unique experience to cross over a river before reaching the private beach - and from there to stroll across another bridge to enjoy an aperitif at sunset on Dock's pier bar! With such wonderful facilities, excellent food, friendly and helpful staff, we will definitely be back!

First time for my wife and I staying at the Gloria Serenity after a recommendation from a friend.
We were looking for a suitable hotel to celebrate a significant birthday for my wife and could not have made a wiser choice.
On arrival we were met by a member of the guest relations team who made us very welcome, and offered us a glass of sparkling wine. The booking in procedure was seamless, guest relations showed us to our room and our luggage was delivered. The room was on the 2nd floor with a view of the gardens looking towards the sea, wonderful room, clean, warm and spacious.
After settling in we visited the buffet restaurant. Very impressed with the food, lots of choice and the staff attentive for any requests. I must recommend the A La Carte restauants. We ate at 2, the French and the Japanese. Both were extremly good but for us, the Japanese won the day, excellent menu and service. There is a Steakhouse restaurant but we didn't have time to sample it.
I mentioned the reason for our visit was my wifes birthday, prior to arrival I was in communication with Murside from guest relations. I cannot praise too highly the efficiency and professionalism of Murside. She made it a wonderful day and together with her colleagues in the restaurant, an unforgettable time.
All members of staff were very helpful and nothing seemed to be too much trouble.
The spa facilities were very good, nice and relaxing.
I recommend this hotel to golfers and non golfers alike (like us). We are planning returning this Christmas, if we can book a room!!!
