Details of our stay at Rixos Downtown. I went there for my first vacation after 8 years. Me, my husband, my mom and our 2 kids. 8 years and 5 years. The hotel is beautiful, all inclusive with a very big variety of delicious food and drinks. (They have 3 restaurants outside the all inclusive deal but they offered us one dinner there because we stayed 4 nights) The hotel was very clean, the service was superb. Staff were amazing (they made my vacation much better with their smiles and fun reactions to everything) They have 2 pools (no slides) and access to the beach(even at the beach which is separated from the hotel but could walk there, food and drinks were inclusive. They even give u towels) . The beach ia not sand. So better have plastic shoes on. They even have water games like Ringo, Jet ski and Parasailing.

All was clean and calm. They have a nice kids area with multiple activities. The bar has a band every night (veeery talented bands). They have gulf court and a spa. U can even take a bicycle ride from the hotel for free outside. U could spend all ur vacation without leaving the hotel. Except for the bad shampoo in the rooms everything was superb.

We visited old town, which was okay if u r into buying fake brands. They put very high prices u can bargain but we didnt get anything. It wasn't very interesting in general.

We visited the land of the legends (the hotel offers free access to it). Unfortunately the road took almost 2 hours. It was supposed to be 45mins but traffic was crazy. Buses had to leave by 5pm so we stayed there alone and took a cab back to the hotel (also he tried to take 70$ while we paid 45 at the end). As a Rixos service we got the entrance for free. They give u towels. They also have wifi. Unfortunately no one told us that there are 2 access to the place. The normal one where u wait a loooong time to play the games and the fast lines. So try to ask about it. Also careful to put money in ur bracelet before u walk inside. Do not miss the daulphin's show. The night show there (water and light show) was not worth it. We sat on the stairs for 2 hours waiting for the show, it was very lame and not worth the trouble maybe 10 to 15 mins show.

I did have one small misunderstanding while I was booking at the free dinner they offered us at one of there restaurants. We tried to book one night before then again in the morning. They made excuses for not being able to book and promised to manage it when we r back at night but when we came at night they said they couldnt. I had both my kids birthdays so I was very pissed. The lady at the desk was not helpful (the only not kind staff i had contact with there) and smiled at me when i was pissed so it was triggering. I called the customer service and they solved the problem in 5 mins, thats why i will keep the 5 stars.

If I'm ever back in Antalya I will book Rixos and spend alllll vacation inside the hotel.. Thank u Rixos staff.
