Akra Fethiye The Residence Tui Blue Sensatori - Ultra All Inclusive - Adults Only

I just wanted to write a quick review on this hotel as we have just returned after staying at the Residence section but did spend some time this side.
The beach bar is a highlight for us and the music sessions at 4 were wonderful.
The service by all the bar staff is exceptional. Ramazan who we know from previous visits is always a joy. Friendly and always remembers us.
Kutay another great bar tender.
The smiley hard working Hakan was so lovely. He is a credit to the hotel. Almed another waiter who worked hard but every member at staff at that bar deserve a mection.
We also participated in the aqua fit with Riad daily. He's a great lad and enjoyed several chats with him.
We also came over twice to have lunch at the buffet. The new renovation is lovely and and gave a more bright and spacious feel to the restaurant. We enjoyed sitting in the adults outside service where the service was excellent.
The food was excellent too and such a great choice.
We also had several lunches at the sunset bar where as usual the food was delicious and service excellent. Im sorry I didnt catch our waiters name but all work very hard there.
Overall as we have stayed at this hotel several years ago and have family members who stay now the standard of service is very high and totally understand why there is so many guests who return year after year.
Lovely to chat to Michelle the tui rep who we know from the residence who is always helpful.

There is not enough words to describe how lovely this place is ! The staff are very professional and work exceptionally hard ,so helpful mertcan our cocktail server was a joy super fun and professional.the views are amazing the food is a solid 10/10 and very consistent throughout the whole trip we will definitely be returning.

An unforgettable stay from start to finish. The hotel itself is stunning, the location is perfect, and every member of staff made us feel genuinely welcome. We travelled as a large group with a 2-year-old, and there was truly something for everyone — the atmosphere, facilities, and service were exceptional throughout.

The highlight of our trip was without a doubt the beach cabana experience, and that was all thanks to Cezar. We booked a cabana for 3 days and it completely made our holiday. Cezar went above and beyond every single day — so attentive, professional, warm, and always one step ahead of anything we needed. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he made us feel so relaxed and looked after.

He also took care of us during a private beach cabana evening for my engagement, and it was absolutely magical. Cezar made the whole experience feel so special and personal, creating memories we’ll never forget. His kindness and attention to detail really stood out and made such a difference to our stay.

A huge thank you to Cezar and the entire team for making our trip so memorable. We genuinely can’t wait to come back.

This is my fourth visit to this hotel. The restaurant and the newly renovated areas, including the lobby, are fantastic. As always, it offers a clean and family-friendly holiday atmosphere. The desserts and drinks are wonderful, but the food could be a little tastier this year; the quality of the food has decreased. Other than that, everything is great, as always. I especially need to mention the spa. I had never tried it on my four previous visits to this hotel. By chance, I met Hamdi while going to the gym, and following his recommendations, I tried the Turkish bath, three lymphatic massages, and mixed therapy. I feel amazing; all my aches and pains are gone. I even questioned why I hadn't tried it before. I think this hotel's spa is truly worth trying; there's a very professional team. Especially Hamdi, thank you!

Just returned spending 10 days in this beautiful hotel, we went back taking friends with us.we all loved it❤️ All the staff are a credit to you, Maret at breakfast was amazing and always had a smile and very attentive. Merryn omlette lady is the best 🥰Abdullah excellent barman in piano bar, friendly and nothing too much trouble will make you any 🍹🍸Maret and Surkan looked after us in Italian, excellent service, beautiful food .Mesut looked after us around the pool area and recognised us from last year 😃 lovely man. Ulas in Amber can't do enough for you, also Baren and Ismail went above and beyond for us, making sure we were all happy 😃we hired a cabana for our friends anniversary, amazing day, Sezur our waiter was the best, would highly recommend getting one. So relaxing and waited on, had champagne 🍾 and cake to celebrate 🥳could go on writing but everyone and hotel excellent. All waiting girls very helpful and friendly. Just a little point, Piano bar got a bit samey after a few nights, all the entertainment crew are excellent, Jonathan and Craig amazing musicians but same songs. Saturday night party was the best ,lasers outstanding and little special touches ☺️ we will be back , thank you all for looking after us xx

We have recently retuned from a 10 night stay at TUI Blue Akra Sensatori Fethiye after visiting this hotel numerous times.
We have never and continue to not be disappointed with this place. We did NOT want to come home !!
Staff at reception cannot be helpful enough, any questions/queries they always have the answer and are more than happy to help.
Loads of choice for food which cannot be faulted across all restaurants including the à la carte.
Yes, there is a pillow menu which you can view and request changes if required.
The hotel grounds, rooms, restaurants and surrounding areas are immaculate.
We used the gym which again is immaculate and well equipped. Options for classes such as HIIT yoga etc.
The beach is fantastic with multiple sun beds not too close to one another and gives off a real chill vibe with some relaxing music on afternoons. The bar staff at the beach are amazing, always around taking drinks orders with a friendly smile and nothing was ever too much trouble.
Most importantly the staff are outstanding and are what makes this hotel such a great place.
They cannot do enough for you and are so pleasant and friendly.
In particular, Buket and Murat in the main restaurant at breakfast. And our evening server Ramazan. We were always greeted with a friendly smile and they could not be more attentive throughout our dining experience.
Will most definitely be returning to this hotel.

II came to Akra fethyie Tui blue with my best friend and I had a great time here, hotel staff are amazing, I had a full day spa met a guy called Hamdi who helped me choose the right package for me, all the staff are very professional and unlike most hotels in turkey is been to the spa staff just want your money and they come round bothering u when sunbathing, this wasn't like that at all. I only came for five days but loved every single minute. I would have loved to have the spa every day but finances were low. Just want to say thank you to Hamdi for relieving my constant pain in my back, I truly feel new again. My friend had a chocolate turkish bath and she loved it so much. Had the best time we did.

I’m sat here on the beach during the last day of my visit. This is my second time here and it’s been absolutely amazing again. I thought that it couldn’t improve from the last time but unbelievably it has. Some renovation work to the main restaurant has improved the flow of the building and there have been upgrades to decor/furniture elsewhere . We never once tried the 3 other restaurants as the food here was exceptional. The grounds here are immaculately kept and the staff are engaging and extremely friendly. I will mention a few who were really special Gizem and Silla and Define for the best coffees. Bartu for delicious chocolate. Rosa for an invigorating massage. Ali in the sunset bar. Hakan who looked after us on the beach. Hatice kept our rooms spotless.
But especially Myriam in the beach bar. What a pleasure to meet and chat with throughout our stay. Thanks for all the interactions.
I was welcomed by balloons champagne cake and birthday greetings upon my arrival. A brilliant and thoughtful touch.
There’s a great vibe and atmosphere here. The musical night on Sunday was excellent and we even went to the rave on Saturday!!!
Without doubt the best,most relaxing stay at a holiday resort. We will be back

Exceptional Food, Outstanding Staff, and Heartwarming Hospitality
​Akra Fethiye Tui Blue is a resort that clearly refuses to rest on its laurels. You can genuinely feel the hotel constantly striving to be better, and it shows in every detail on our second visit. The addition of the new coffee shops, snacks and premium ice cream has elevated the entire experience, bringing a refined, authentic 5-star feel to the property. Pair this continuous improvement with the absolutely amazing food served throughout the resort, and you have the perfect recipe for a holiday.

​However, what truly makes this hotel shine is the people. Every single member of the staff is outstanding, and honestly, I feel a bit guilty for not being able to name them all! I should be calling out more, two individuals deserve a very special mention for making our stay extraordinary. First is Gökhan, a waiter in the main buffet restaurant. He was amazingly attentive, anticipating our needs with a smile before we even had to ask. Second is Hüseyin at the main bar. He possesses the magical ability to never let my whisky glass go empty, all while effortlessly churning out phenomenal cocktails for the crowd.
​A little cultural tip for future guests: Try using the Turkish phrase "Kolay gelsin" (pronounced ko-lie gell-sin) when interacting with the team. It translates beautifully to "May your work be easy." Saying this is a small, kind gesture that acknowledges their hard work, and you will undoubtedly see their faces light up in appreciation.

​Finally, please tip the staff generously, folks. They work incredibly hard around the clock to create these seamless, luxurious experiences for us. It means the world to them, and wholeheartedly, they deserve it. We're booked to return in May 2026

We recently made yet another return visit to this fabulous hotel.
Big renovations took place over the closed season, from the reception through the walkway to the ‘Restaurant’, new shops and a great Barista Coffee shop is there now ‘Baska ol’, the renovation of the restaurant has made it lovely and modern looking with lots of curves and wood, very pleasing to the eye. There was a bit of an issue when we first arrived with plates being cold and the hot food not being hot enough, this was raised and resolved. Please if there are any issues, do NOT complain when you get home, raise it at the time, either with the Restaurant manager/supervisor or the TUI team, if they don’t know they can’t do anything about it. This hotel genuinely wants you to have the best holiday experience and will do all they can to ensure that happens.

As always the staff were first class. Buket and Gokhan were so efficient and friendly at breakfast every day, bar staff were excellent, but those I want to give a special mention to are Hüseyin Çakan and Abdullah Ozan Toprak in the main Bar who not only are talented cocktail makers but are also such lovely friendly people too, although they do raise an eyebrow when I move onto sparkling water (I’m not a big drinker….wine with dinner, a couple of cocktails then I’m done).
Hakan Tunçoğlu and Yigit deserve a mention at the boardwalk, again, such lovely people as well as excellent at their job.
I know that my husband has mentioned a lot of people in his review so I won’t mention all of them again, but I would like to give a shout out to Yusuf and Baran who always ensures that people get seats in the bar as well as everything else there job entails.
Entertainment cast/bar entertainment/flown in and local acts all brilliant, make sure you don’t miss them, all the programme of what’s on is in the TUI Blue app, get it downloaded.
I must also mention the SPA, Opening hours 0900-1900, what an amazing space, go and check it out when you visit, it is on floor -1 below the bar/reception, near the indoor pool/hair and beauty salon/courtesy room/gym. Their full menu of treatments are on the TUI blue app.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience, the spa itself is spotlessly clean with beautiful calm lighting, and a peaceful atmosphere that immediately helps you relax. I can thoroughly recommend the Traditional Turkish Peeling and Foam Massage from the Hammam Treatments - your skin will feel amazing after - and also the full body Relax Massage. What a great way to start a holiday, or mid way through or before venturing home. A special mention must go to Hamdi at the Spa, who is exceptionally knowledgeable about all the treatments available. He takes the time to discuss options with guests and helps recommend the most beneficial treatments or packages for individual needs. His warm, engaging personality is a real asset to the spa.
Sauna and steam room are available to use free throughout the spa opening hours.

I am on countdown to our return trip in the autumn, to visit our Akra Family ❤️

We have just came back from this resort and honestly it couldn’t have been more good. I am 15 years old and I love doing lighting and sound for theatre, the day we got there the entertainment team were so good and managed to let me help do the tech a lot of the nights we were there and it was amazing, they were all so so supportive and honestly couldn’t be better. It made my whole holiday along with the hotel but actually getting to do the thing I love but on a better scale with the best people was just amazing and couldn’t be better. The lighting and sound guy Yǐgit and Mim the entertainment team were absolutely amazing on helping me and I can’t express more how actually good they were, It Literally made my entire holiday that’s how much it meant to me. Please go to this hotel it is outstanding but the entertainment team is even better.
Thank you
Charlie

Everything

Fantastic hotel and food
Staff are all Amazing and make the best cocktails especially Huseyin at the main bar….
We had a swim up room which was lovely
3 luxury Al a carte restaurants with the Italian being the best 4 courses I have tasted…

UPDATED OVERVIEW;

IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN TO Sensatori, Akra Fethiye BEFORE, READ THIS:
(It might help with your decision)

The first thing to know is that this is NOT a party hotel - it IS a chilled, relaxed, unplugged hotel, where you can listen to background music during the day, without being approached every five minutes to join in something or other, or being hassled to have a Hammam - there are NO pool parties or foam parties Neon Parties or White parties.

Sensatori is the flagship of Tui as a brand and is the one most favoured by Tui staff (all 64000 of them), and of the various Hotels in the brand, the top three are Fethiye, Sorgun and Sharm.

Most regular Sensatorists think Fethiye is the best – we do. Akra Fethiye enjoys a 70% return rate so we meet many people that we’ve met in previous visits.

The rooms are simple, modern stylish, but this hides the fact that everything you could reasonably want is catered for 49" TV, mini bar (mainly soft drinks, a couple of beers) T & C making, plus an Nespresso machine, Slippers, Bathrobe QUALITY Bog roll, all the complimentary stuff that you can think of, decent Shampoo, Shower Gel, Conditioner, hand soap and moisturiser. Our was serviced every day by the lovely, smiley and expert Google translate user, Selma!

Breakfast is in the Buffet. Inside or out, huge range. Much cooked in front of you – LOVE the Omelette cooked by the ever smiley and cheerful Meryem. But there is SO much choice. Don’t see what you fancy? Ask one of the Managers. If they can do it or get it for the following day – they will (NOT British Bacon, - don't be silly! ). Remember this hotel can accommodate 1500 people, but will still try to give that level of personal service, I am blown away! There are always supervisors like Abidin or Gem (pronounced Chem) or Managers like Memhet and Gokhan wandering constantly - anything that you are not sure about, or want that is not there, they'll help with, with a smile.

In reception, a quick Coffee (and Cake? - as much as you want) at Baska’s coffee shop, or visit The Tui Blue Reps (there are at least 5 of them - led by the inimitable Tara - who's been there years) they gets thing sorted and with out fuss, and guest relations are at the next desk.

Then on the way down to the Pools and the beach, maybe a stop at the Lime or Jasmine bar for a Coffee or something stronger - most people seem to go to the latter ;-) Then there is Thea's in the Basilico for another Coffee or Tea, maybe a Croissant, beautiful pastry or just a biscuit?

Grab a glass of water from the various chillers, or a bottle from any bar, Towels from either the adult bar or the towel shack – change them as often as you want. We tend to get two each, one rolled up as a pillow – but we keep them for a couple of days – we don’t want to take the Pee!

You might want to do Yoga or Pilates or Football or Archery, with qualified Professional fitness instructors or we like doing "Monkeysee, Monkeydo" (Aquafit) - which is very effective at burning off the many, many hard to avoid calories. Some brave folk do yoga balancing on paddle boards in the (heated) activity pool. Mesut is always walking around the Family and activity pool collecting glasses and bringing drinks if you are too lazy to get up and use the millions of calories you are piling up at every meal time. I know there is someone else doing the Adult pool too. On the beach loungers - which have cushions this year - there are QR codes to scan on the parasols to have drinks brought to you.

At lunch you might be serenaded by one of the cast singing with backing music or playing guitar or Saxophone. Lunch might be at;
· The Sunset (which is a payable restaurant in the evening) or the one immediately below (can’t remember what its name is) which does traditional Turkish food – like Pide and Goz….something or other (I can say it, but not spell it) – I recommend trying Aryan – which is salted yogurt and water, sounds odd, but is delicious! You can order from either, or both, menus.

· Or you could have a Jacket Potato (you have to ask “why would you” when there is so much fabulous food all around you? They are delicious! (and MASSIVE)) from the shack, which also offers “the best Kebab in Türkiye” (and that is according to the staff) fresh fruit or filled rolls if you just want something simple. Opposite is a bar that apart from the usual also usually offers a “health drink” – looks awful, tastes great.

· Or the Buffet with a massive choice which you can eat in door or out

· Or the Basilico which offers Italian style food (and absolutely delicious Pizzas – I REALLY can’t think of having a better Pizza anywhere – including Italy!), or the Patisserie within the Basilico.

· In the afternoon, you might drop into Thea's Coffee shop for a drink and a wide range of Pastries or the Ice-Cream parlour with a choice of ten different Ice-cream and Sorbet flavours (some are really exotic like Sorrel or Walnut).

More Pilates, Yoga, meditation, French boules on the lawn, swing in a string Hamock for two, play Pool or Table Tennis at the sports bar, play a strange Nordic game – the name of which escapes me, but is easy to learn and quite fun. There is pool, darts and sport on two TV's either side of a central podium – lots of major stuff is shown at the sports bar.

Then have a walk along the beach, very pebbled at the water’s edge for about 6 feet, get past that and the water is warm and relatively shallow – the easiest way is to go along the pier and climb down the stairs.

Or there is Archery and always football matches, or Tennis…… Or you could lounge on one of the many Sunbeds - all set out with reasonable space even when the hotel is at full capacity there are lots of Sunbeds, and more than a hundred more on the beach!

In the evening, go up to the Cocktail bar where Tugba and sometimes Huseyin (usually works in the main lobby) who makes phenomenal Cocktails and watch the sun go down over the Islands and chill again, drinking professionally created Cocktails (downside - they take FOREVER to get to you - so allow time to CHILL!), while possibly listening to a small band or Saxophone (live of course), but still background. If they have the ingredients, they’ll make anything you want – apart from a Harvey Wallbanger – they don’t have Galliano – nobody knows why!

Then dinner in the newly renovated Buffet Restaurant - all expensive curves, bright and open (with a MASSIVE choice of quality, freshly prepared food) or one of the three included a la carte restaurants (Asian, Italian, Turkish) or splash out at one of the two payable restaurants.

Or you could take in some of the music at the Piano bar with the resident musicians -So far, Jonathan and Craig plus others on Piano, Guitar and we've had Violin and electric Cello, in the past - any combination of 3. Then down to the boardwalk Amphitheatre for a simple drink, or a premade Cocktail - staffed by Yigit (pronounced Yeads) and Hakan with Serhat collecting glasses and bring you replacements if needed. the evening entertainment - could be the Professional cast (all from performing arts schools - most with degrees (all?) in the subject), or a flown in tribute act, (Michael Buble, Gary Barlow, Tom Jones, Madonna, Dolly Parton, Jess Glynne, Dua Lipa, Tina Turner, Robbie Williams - to name but a few) or an acrobatic or dance act, (there are about 17 of them throwing themselves about the stage - very impressive!)

Some folk will spend the evening down at the Caretta Bar with “Sounds of Ibiza” playing from the raised DJ set.

Then there is the opportunity to go back up to the lounge bar where you'll probably get the cast (Jakob, Tom, Mia, Mim, Libby and alicia) (and I do mean cast – i.e.: NOT an animation team lip synching) - around the piano - could be a total of 9 entertaining either as an ensemble, or individually. Music stops at close to midnight (we have managed to push it past 12 a couple of times in the past) - at 12pm, The bar is open all night - All of the spirits are imported premium brands - like Gentleman Jack (my current fav when on holiday) and Johnny Walker Red or Black Label. and we have been there until 3:30am!

Fancy a little nibble? (BOY! do you have an appetite!) up to the Amber restaurant which is open all through the night! You can also use the bar there for drinks looking over the resort.

Then to bed.
Repeat! .
Enjoy!

We stayed here for 10 nights and were really happy with the hotel. There are adult only sections both for the pool and buffet which was a bonus. The drink and food were excellent. It is very clean and the staff were amazing. The only negative for me was that the hot food items at breakfast were either cool or cold. There are plenty of other options and after a couple of days I just chose them. All in all a great hotel with staff that really go the extra mile.

The hotel itself is beautiful, really aesthetic with such a lovely atmosphere. There’s so much to do activity wise, you’re never bored, and the beach is absolutely lovely with table service through a QR code. The beach bar staff were brilliant too.

Both in the day and during the evening the entertainment team were absolutely awesome as well, they really added to the whole experience and kept the energy going throughout the trip!

The food was good too, loads of different options every day so there was always something for everyone and it never felt repetitive.The staff throughout the whole hotel were brilliant, always happy to help with a smile on their face no matter what you needed.

But we just had to write a special shoutout for Isa, what an absolute gem! He was our server in the adults buffet seating area. From day one he made us feel so welcome. Every single day he went out of his way to make sure we were happy, and you could just tell how genuine he was, his kindness wasn’t put on, he was friendly and professional at all times. The little things really stood out too, like the second your drink was empty he was right there asking if you wanted another. Never had to wait, never had to ask, he just noticed. He was so professional but also just really lovely to be around. He honestly made our trip so much better and we can’t thank him enough. Isa, you’re a star, keep doing what you’re doing, you’re brilliant at it!😁🙂⭐

We adore Akra and the Tui Blue/Sensatori experience. We’ve had the most wonderful holiday again - we did a week last year and 15 days this year as loved it so much, yet still could have stayed longer! The entertainment is great for kids and adults, and Ever After is especially special for any Disney fans!

A particular shout out is needed for Kids Club. We never really planned to use it however our daughter Annabelle asked from the start and loved it so much she kept asking to go! The team there are great and so welcoming, especially Karis and Holly!! Our daughter built a strong bond with Karis and wanted her to come back to England with us, and it was so lovely to see her take a genuine interest in Annabelle too - thank you so much!

Another shout out to our favourite bartender Mesut, on the pool bar, Lime Bar. Excellent service two years running and he also took the time to speak to our daughter and teach her some Turkish - she now refers to him as her best friend! The staff are fabulous and made it feel even more special than just a holiday.

The whole place is just fabulous and we will definitely be back x
