This is a wonderful, unique, boutique hotel which suited our family's needs perfectly - it was so good (and Turkey so hot in August) that we hardly left the place for 9 days, only to go out to Kas in the evenings for dinner. Meis is just the right size - enough scale to be a proper hotel but with very good individual service. We have two teenagers (14 & 16) who enjoyed flopping on sunbeds, playing games with their parents and swimming in the sea with endless diving competition opportunities by the hotel. I should point out that at certain times the sea can get choppy and the tide can be a bit strong - absolutely nothing a stable swimmer can't cope with but it could cause nervous people some anxiety. We loved it. Lots of beds by the pool and by the rocks/sea. We spent every day down by the sea, mostly on our own down there. Even when the hotel was quite full at the weekends, there were plenty of beds. Note that the pool does not have a shallow end (at 5ft 2 I couldn't touch the bottom) but it has nice big steps in, a handrail all round and there is usually an inflatable around. The staff is amazing at Meis. A great bunch of young guys waiting on you and an excellent barman who speaks the best English - everyone at Meis is there to serve and wants you to have a good time. We went in the hotel gym most days. The food is great, again the chef really caring what people want - his pastas are very good and the BBQ meat platter is a meat feast you won't forget. Breakfast is a highlight - we were lucky that midweek we almost had the place to ourselves and we had platefuls of our favourite foods (fried aubergines, menemen (Turkish scrambled eggs with tomato), pancakes) delivered straight from the kitchen to our table. Unlimited bean to cup coffees set you up for the day. The communal areas are better than the pictures, rooms maybe a little less so. We would definitely go again, maybe when not as hot so we could explore more locally. If, like us, you appreciate the quiet, don't need lots of activities and like being away from hoards of other Brits, then Meis Hotel will be paradise for you. Kas is a great city - it's really alive at night with 100s of restaurants. We recommend Pells to eat and for cocktails, also Batin 2 (Captain Garlic) for a...

I travelled there with my 5-month pregnant wife mid-october, which is the end of the high-season in Kas. The hotel room was fine, except for the jacuzzi on the balcony that smelt like a lot of wine was spilt in it, and therefore we did not use it.
We paid more than other property to book this hotel to be able to spend a couple of days without having to go anywhere and relax by the pool and the beach, however the pool was not clean, and a lot of green algae was visible in a big portion of the pool. regarding the beach area, the way down was not practical for my pregnant wife as the few and rails available were either broken or wobbly, and once we arrived at the beach the swimming platform was completely broken and un-safe, and all the lounging areas were in shambles. we ended up leaving the hotel to enjoy the beach somewhere else for the day.
When mentioning that to the reception at the time of departure, there was no apology or any gestures, but trying to convince me this was not their fault, and they could not fix it. I emailed the property directly, and i am still to receive any response.
This was definitely the worst experience we have had in Kas (3rd time traveling there) and the 6 other hotels we have been at were really worth it - i would NOT book here again and would find other, more serious and...
