An ultra luxe seaside spot in Side
Treat yourself to the finer things in life for a week or two at the Paloma Finesse in beautiful Side – where, as the name suggests, everything is done with a touch of finesse. This luxurious hotel features a 350-metre long sandy beach, complete with elegant cabanas. Fresh from a recent renovation, the Paloma Finesse boasts ultra-cool architecture and interiors, and wouldn't look out of place on the pages of a glossy travel magazine.
Surrounded by padded loungers shaded by parasols, the huge main pool is the complex's centrepiece and makes the perfect place to chill in the sun. Little ones, meanwhile, have two shallower pools to enjoy when they're not having fun at the playground. Then there's Palomaqua – a waterpark complete with twisting slides, up-to-the-minute virtual reality rides, and more. And if that sounds too energetic, spend an hour to two in the onsite spa. There's also a gym here, if you fancy a workout.
Fine dining is the order of the day at the hotel's restaurants. The main restaurant – The Kitchen – has reinvented the classic buffet. Instead of a maze of ready-made dishes, expect loads of different stations offering everything from fresh pasta and grilled seafood to dry-aged meats and Turkish eats. Some of the stands are even edged by bar stools, so you can watch the chefs at work while you dine, while the baby food corner offers lots of yummy treats for those with little ones in tow. Then there's The Beach Club, where you can tuck into net-fresh seafood in the evening, and light bites and creative cocktails during the day. Peckish between meals? The Bistro is the perfect place to refuel and offers sweet treats, loose leaf teas and artisan coffee.
When it comes to the à la carte eateries, you're in for a treat. The Med Kitchen serves contemporary Mediterranean cuisine with a special finesse touch for lunch and dinner – menus include the likes of pizza baked in a brick oven and tasty veggie dishes. For an unforgettable evening, book a table at the Chef's Kitchen, where each week a different world-renowned chef serves a degustation menu, just as they would in their own restaurants.
Time to call in a night? You'll have no trouble getting settled in the sumptuous rooms and suites here. Each one is super stylish, modern and spacious, and some even come with a swim-up terrace
