KEMPINSKI HOTEL BARBAROS BAY

Kempenski Barbados is the best hotel in Bodrum. It has best beach, very good quality breakfasts, rooms are clean and tidy. One tip, we used to go for dinners outside due to its variety. Best restaurants are at Palmarina, Yali kavak, Nusret for meat, Sait for fish and Zuma for Japanese and fusion. Also we went to Bodrum Marina, the best restaurants are Sait and Yacht club.

This was my first stay at Kempinski Barbaros with the family. It was really good. The breakfast was perfect with a lot of varieties. The staff are really helpful and they are always smiling to their guests. The beach is more than amazing. The staff go around the guests to give them cold spray to spray it on body and they will go around to offer free watermelon. But there are certain things they need to improve: 1. Room service is really slow 2. Rooms are not luxurious as the rest of the hotel. 3. Since the hotel is far away, then they should have more than one restaurants operating at night. One restaurant only operating at night for a la carte, so the capacity on this restaurant will be high so you won't find reservation. Thus, the guest will be either forced for two options either they go for open buffet or order room service. 4. you might wait for the golf car to come pick you from the beach to the hotel. 5. The hotel should offer transportation to the new marina and to the mall.

I keep looking for those hotels that give you the impression that Comfort is easy, Beauty is around you all the time and Relaxation is not a choice. Here is an example of all of these combined. We (group of CEOs for many companies) had the best time. We did not have a single comment on the hotel. We enjoyed our daily exercise in the hotel gym overlooking the Barbaros bay while running on the trademil. We enjoyed the Moroccan bath (should not be missed) and the hotel spa which was one of the best I have seen. It is a bit far from down town but the concierge and limo service were excellent.

The resort is located in the serene quiet Barbaros bay. It's very private and beautiful. We stayed in one of the residence apartments, which are fully equipped with everything one would need. Cleanliness is superb. The food and drinks are pricey but of good quality. Service and personnel are wonderful. It was a true getaway for us: we disconnected from the real world, literally.

the hotel was great. The food and service excellent. special thanks to Saleh the bar chief who was great and very helpful. he made our stay more enjoyable, we will visit again for sure. the food was excellent in both the Asian and Italian restaurants. we will go back for sure. Our only problem was getting from the airport to the hotel. we had a car rental with no GPS and got lost. I suggest they put signs at the main round about and the road leading to the hotel.
