Side Star Resort

The Side Star Resort is ideal for beach lovers – a scenic path down the cliff leads you to a private patch of sand and the glistening waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

The pool scene here is worth writing home about. One of the large outdoor pools is circled by sun loungers, ideal for soaking up the sun and working on your tan. Another outdoor pool is kitted out with fun water slides, which the kids will go crazy for. There’s also an indoor pool with a children’s pool attached, perfect for parents swimming whilst keeping an eye on their little ones. Looking for added relaxation? Enjoy the steamy sauna, or work up a sweat in the gym.  

Not one to chill out all day long? Take part in a friendly game of table tennis. And if that doesn’t tickle your fancy, get involved in darts, beach volleyball, water polo, and aqua-aerobics. The hotel’s watersports centre can also arrange windsurfing and canoeing sessions.  

If you are a foodie, you’ll love the hotel’s dining options, which include an on-site patisserie. There’s one buffet place, and three à la carte restaurants, which serve a selection of Far Eastern, Mexican, and Turkish cuisine. For drinks, make your way through the five bars that’re dotted around the resort. There’s a beach bar, disco bar, lobby bar, coffee bar, and a pool bar – all serving a range of local and international drinks.  

The rooms here are elegantly decorated and come complete with a flat-screen TV, a safe, free WiFi, and air-conditioning. The rooms have balconies that either overlook the sea or the well-manicured gardens, making them the perfect place to unwind.
