We actually wanted to relax for two weeks. I had known before that I couldn't expect 5 star luxury this time, but what we experienced here was intolerable. There was nothing of the sort of cleanliness in this hotel. It was really a disaster what was going on here. No matter where you looked, you saw only dirt. You can't believe this unless you experienced it yourself. On our 4th day, I had a word with the tourist guide. I told him that I didn't want to spend any other minute in this hotel area and that I wanted him to find us another place. I threatened him with everything that came to my mind, TV, lawyer, hotel review, etc. I took enough photos for proof. I even secretly recorded our talk. Since we still had 10 days ahead of us, he made phone calls, spoke to the Öger head office in Antalya and got us another hotel after about 1 hour. We packed our bags, checked out, took a taxi (which cost me 15 euros), and after 10 minutes, we were in a 5 star hotel (Febeach Resort & Spa) which had only re-opened 3 weeks before after renovation. From then, we could finally enjoy our holiday, and the first few days were compensated. Well, folks, just stay away from the Poseidon Beach Club in Belek.

Rather remote. You could only go to Belek or Antalya by dolmus or taxi.
The taxi to Belek cost about 8-10 euros. Better take the dolmus for about 75 cents.

As described elsewhere, everything was beyond contempt here.

Gastronomy not available

There was the same food almost every day, if you could even call it that. The tablecloths were hardly ever changed, the employees swept everything on the chairs or the floor. The floor wasn't even cleaned overnight. We even witnessed that one employee picked up a slice of bread from the floor and put it back on the table where a mother was feeding her baby. That was the worst and far from hygiene and cleanliness. Disgusting. On our 4th and last day in this hotel, there weren't even any employees around clearing the dishes anymore. Moreover, we noticed two employees having a heated argument in the kitchen and that one of them even got fired.
In the catalog and the internet, we had also read something about an à la carte restaurant, but that was just a myth.

As Eid ul-Fitr was still celebrated when we arrived, there was live music that day. The next two days, the disco was open as of 11pm. We couldn't sleep because of the noise. Apart from that, no events or entertainment at all. A boring hotel area.

It already started when we arrived (at 2pm). There were already unsatisfied guests in the reception area. One hour after our arrival, we were brought to our bungalow (there were just some kinds of mini bungalows here). Since the guests in the reception area had already told us about the intolerable circumstances, we immediately looked around. Everything was still dirty in the bathroom, doors couldn't be locked and were just barely repaired. We couldn't accept it like that and went back to the reception right away. After I had raised my voice a bit, we were promised another room. No sooner said than done, we were brought there by an electric cart. The first bungalow was by a main path (not cleaned yet!!), then the next bungalow. We were welcomed by a stinky smell here. We could see right away that one wall was totally wet. The employee said that it hadn't been aired in here. So, back to the reception. Now, the receptionist had a final solution for us. He personally brought us to a bungalow which was much better than the ones before but hadn't been cleaned yet either. We then decided to take this bungalow but had to spend some time in the reception area again till everything was cleaned. After the first night (and also after the next nights), there was always a strong sewage-like smell in the bathroom. It really made us sick.


Tips and recommendations

DON'T COME TO THIS HOTEL!!!!!
ÖGER Tours should better check the hotels they work with here, otherwise they will quickly ruin their reputation. I won't book Öger again!!!
I will also soon upload the photos on holidaycheck.
