Lara Beach

Brand new property with modern, clean rooms and a great layout — restaurants centrally located so you can dine inside or out. Pillow menu available, a thoughtful touch. Shoutout to the team: Ender, Hakan, Emre & Ratuhan (bars — Hakan’s smoked cocktail is a must try!), Gulhan (pool bar on roller skates — fun and faster service!), Mehmet (DJ), Berkay (Wen), Mustafa (restaurants), Huseyn (Degusto), Ece (personal assistant — proactive and handled everything), Rhea (cleaning — spotless every day). For US guests — this blows Mexico out of the water. Buffet dinner included, à la carte has a small cover charge but the quality is far superior and worth it. Pool at 25°C, beach side clean, never struggled to find seats, kids and adult areas well separated. Borrowable games like Uno and chess are a fun bonus. Nightly entertainment — singing, dancing, live performances then an awesome DJ set. Separate kids show earlier in the evening. So much to do, I wish I came as a kid. Crickets noted in some reviews — you hear them outside at night from the greenery, zero impact on rooms. Rooms are modern and looked great throughout. Would absolutely come back. 🙌

Th resort is a good one with loads of amenities and activities to do. There was a wide range of food that was available at all time up until 1:30am. Asides for the room and hallway cleanliness, which can be improved on, I’ll rate it a 4star. However I’ll take a star out for room cleanliness. Overall it’s a good resort to stay in.
