Absolutely Horrendous Experience – Avoid at All Costs
Absolutely Horrendous Experience – Avoid at All Costs
I have travelled to many places, but this is by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Hotel Baba completely ruined what was meant to be a family holiday.
From the moment we arrived, things were wrong. We were given a room that was still being cleaned, and within hours the bathroom flooded with dirty sewage water. Every time the toilet was flushed, contaminated water came back up through the floor drains. This is not just poor service, it is a serious health hazard.
The hygiene standards were shocking. Bedding was dirty, cups were not properly washed, and the overall environment felt unsafe for both adults and children.
Food was another disaster. “Hot meals” were served cold because there were no proper heating facilities. On top of that, we were given hot water that actually contained sand. We only realised this after leaving the water to settle and seeing the sand at the bottom of the cup. No kettle was provided in the room, so we had to keep going to the bar to request hot water, which was clearly not safe to drink.
The hotel is also unsafe. The sofa bed collapsed while I was sleeping, causing me to fall and sustain injury. Instead of properly replacing it, they attempted a poor fix, and the replacement was still faulty. To make matters worse, a child in our group was trapped inside the bathroom because the shower door jammed.
Customer service was appalling. The manager was rude and unhelpful, and instead of resolving issues, he threatened to call the police when we complained about the conditions.
This hotel is dirty, unsafe, poorly managed, and completely unfit for families. There is no care for guest safety, hygiene, or basic comfort.
Do not be misled by the location — nothing can make up for the terrible experience. This was a complete waste of money and an extremely stressful, upsetting stay.
I strongly advise anyone to avoid Hotel Baba.

Awful !!!!!!
We booked this hotel through Love Holidays. The pictures do not look like the real life place. When we arrived they offered us a tiny/dirty room over looking a roof. We refused this and were offered a room with a better view but the bed was falling apart and the room again was dirty. We had to sleep in there for one night. The last room was ok. But the air conditioner leaked and so did the shower. I returned home with a chest infection and very unwell. I would not stay here ever again

Good location, hotel needs updating
The hotel was a bit outdated, wifi only worked in the lobby which was a bit frustrating. Air con didn’t work in the rooms, very noisy at nighttime due to the local clubs / bars but this isn’t fault of the hotel.
Food wasn’t good, went all inclusive but only really ate 3 times there and the rest of the holiday we ate out!
The rooms were kept clean and the lovely lady always made nice shapes on the beds with towels and flowers.
Staff were accommodating & friendly.
Local area was great, lots to do and see, really reccomend the local boat trips!

Dirty poolside, staff poor, no atmosphere
I have stayed at this hotel many times in the past and it’s always been very basic yet clean and friendly with lots of atmosphere. This time we stayed, we found it to be quite poor, especially at breakfast in the morning. There was only ever water to drink at breakfast, during the full week there was only the first morning that there was a coffee or juice available….. the rest nothing. I also didn’t like how the hot food was left open all of the time, resulting in cold food and flies on it. When I did close one I used I was told they had to be kept open. The hot selection of food was very poor, but there was always chips for breakfast . Luckily, I like the Turkish breakfast as in the cheese and salami type meat and cucumber and tomato…. If you weren’t down there first thing for breakfast, there was no bread left.
The pool side was disgusting, it wasn’t cleaned, there was a clump of hair on the drain for the first few days we were there. Pool safety was not adeared to at all. The life ring from the wall was used as a toy to float on in the pool by a Turkish family who were on holiday. I brought this to the attention of staff and was told “ well, maybe they can’t swim” which I thought was a totally ridiculous statement. If someone got into trouble in that pool, there was nothing to save them. There was also no music around the pool, nor anyone visiting the pool area with menus or asking if we’d like drinks fetching as there isn’t a pool bar. You have to walk around the side of the hotel to the front where the beach is and go to the bar, personally I would rather tip a waiter to do this for me when I’m on holiday. We would’ve eaten several times by the pool and had many drinks if this option had been available, which obviously is custom for the hotel.
The rooms were clean (my cleaner was lovely and would speak when we passed in the hotel), they were cleaned daily and clean towels left. There is a fridge in some of the rooms, we had two rooms and only one had a fridge, only one had a safe which worked and only one had a key card which worked. The key card was sorted straight away and the mattress which you could feel the springs through was also changed straight away. We just used the working safe between the two rooms so that wasn’t an issue for us. Reception were always kind and courteous and spoke fantastic English…. Unlike the rest of the Hotel employees.
The room I was in took some getting used to because there was a noise, like a generator or something which was on the go all of the time. I like a bit of background noise when I sleep, but this was irritating.

Warning stay away from this place
Okay, so I just got back from what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway, but honestly, my stay at Hotel Baba was anything but. Right off the bat, the people at reception were just...rude. No smiles, no help, just a general vibe that they'd rather be anywhere else. And no matter what problem you had, they were completely useless. Needed extra towels? Tough luck. Question about the area? Blank stares.
The food? Let's just say I've had better meals on a plane. Everything tasted like it had been sitting out for days, and honestly, the whole place felt grimy. Like, actually dirty. I'm not usually one to complain, but seriously, do yourself a favor and book somewhere else. This place is a total waste of money and a major letdown.
There’s a specific worker who worked at the reception desk who will make you want to leave as soon as you step a foot. I uploaded a photo of him as I assume he’s made other people also feel very unwelcomed and uncomfortable.
