Acanthus & Cennet Barut Collection

Honest review

If you are choosing a resort in Side for a trip with children, this is one of the most thoroughly thought-out options: families with little ones under three are given practically everything here, from a cot and a pram to a bib and baby shampoo, so half your luggage can stay at home.

Pick a category to match your family: there are one-room units and suites, sleeping anywhere from couples to families of five. Honeymooners should mention their status in advance: the resort will bring breakfast to the room, arrange a candlelit dinner and prepare a bath set.

The food is varied and of high quality — Turkish, Mediterranean, Italian and Far Eastern kitchens, with more than 150 drinks in the bars. The sea is good, with fine light sand and a guarded beach.

Neither children nor adults will be bored: a cinema and a playroom, animators, yoga, step and aqua aerobics, volleyball, bocce, chess, a gym and evening shows with acrobats. We also recommend the local spa centre.

Map references: Antalya airport is 54 kilometres away, Manavgat 8. A resort for family holidays first of all, though it will also suit anyone after a calm rhythm by the sea.
