If you're looking for a hotel experience that falls short in every possible way, then this is the place for you. My four-day stay at this hotel in Turkey was an absolute nightmare. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that no one was interested in providing any kind of assistance, whether it be with luggage, lighting issues, or even basic inquiries at the front desk. The staff seemed to possess an air of superiority, acting as if they were the ones in charge and treating guests with disdain. One of the only reasons this hotel seems to attract customers is its private beach. However, I would highly recommend exploring other hotels in the area,even if you stay in neighbor hotels you can still join Bilem’s beach and dancing club just by paying a little extra. So you can enjoy the same beach experience without subjecting yourself to the numerous inconveniences and frustrations that this hotel offers. On a more positive note, if you do find yourself staying at this hotel against your better judgment, I encourage you to venture out and try the nearby restaurant called Dürümkolik. It's just a few minutes' walk from Bilem and offers delicious food at reasonable prices. Additionally, if you're traveling with kids, the Selfie Park, a 23-minute walk away, provides a fun and enjoyable experience for them. Overall, my experience at this hotel was far from satisfactory. I would caution anyone considering a stay here to think twice and explore other options in the area that prioritize guest satisfaction...

We came to this beach to celebrate my child’s birthday, hoping for a peaceful and joyful day. Instead, it turned out to be a complete disaster — and frankly, a health hazard.
At the entrance, the man in charge (either a manager or security) was outrageously rude. I was with my three small children, and he yelled at me in front of them. He forced me to throw away a bottle of water I brought specifically for one of my kids, who has a medical condition and must have water on hand at all times. I explained the situation calmly — he didn’t care. When his own colleague tried to advocate for us, he snapped at him too. The aggression was completely unprovoked.
The mood was ruined from the very beginning — especially for my child, whose birthday was supposed to be special.
Once we got in, things only got worse. Deafening music was blasting across the beach. When I politely asked for the volume to be turned down, they increased it. It felt like deliberate disrespect.
Even more disturbing — the water itself was clearly polluted. There was a visible film on the surface, and the smell was identical to dishwashing liquid. It was revolting and clearly not safe to swim in. I was horrified thinking that families and children were entering that water without realizing the risk.
Wouldn’t recommend it...
Read moreI went to the blm beach today on my own, The entry price over 300tl, Maybe a lot, considering that prices on the menu are not cheapest. Because I was on my own the usher wanted to put me on the singled out bed which would made me feel even more single , so no good haha The beds are great/ comfortable The place has a good vibe , parasols and beds in only one beige/white colour. All was good , most staff friendly and very helpful. I had a plate of watermelon 150tl and wanted some feta with it and there charged me about 350 on that bill , so maybe a bit too much.
Now On my way out ( almost on the lift ) I've realised I didn't pay for my orange juice that I've ordered at the very start at the downstairs bar.
I went back to the restaurant to pay, staff told me that for this i need to pay at the downstair bar. Well they didn't leave me to it ,i felt like they litterally escort me to that paying point 🤦♀️.
I also had a bottle of water in my hand and was questioned few times where i got it from ( and it wasnt from there)
So i had a great time. Until that embarrasing moment.
Ps showers needs improving, the little pool area too .
Ps Ps you can use paddle board and try scuba there . And the price...
