Sunbathing at Anda Barut Collection Hotel in Didim, Turkey

Well, well, well... everything is here well regularly at Anda Barut Collection, an all-inclusive dream on the Turkish Aegean coast. And by everything, we really mean everything. From breakfast to yoga, from the pool to the service: nothing is left to chance here. One way or another: it's right.

The first few days you will definitely lose track of what is left and right, because: it is big. And by big we mean: BIG.

Don't get us wrong, not big in a bad way. Because of that space there is enough peace for everyone. Families with children? Check. Adults only? Double check. If you don't feel like having screaming kids running down the slide, just move to the adults only-part. Neatly arranged.

What stands out?

What stands out?

The service on roller skates. Seriously. Go fast or go home. The nice thing about it all inclusive here? That you can order a drink on every corner. And then it just comes to you. Iced latte (recommended!), your favorite cocktail, a soft drink – whatever you want, it's coming.

Also nice: the guest service is we point. If your light in the room is on red for too long, they will kindly check in. Everything okay? Sweet, right? They also sincerely ask about your stay and do everything they can to make you feel comfortable. Sweet, sweet, sweet!

In theory you could fill your days here: swimming, yoga, gym, spa, getting out on the water, eating, eating, eating… you know the drill. Luckily there is a gym and a running track, so it's all over in no time. Bottom line: there's more than enough to do here.

The rooms

The rooms

Big hotel = big rooms. So that's fine. For families it's extra nice: if you take two rooms, you can connect them via the balcony and via the front door. How exactly does that work? No idea. But: it's certainly brilliant.

The rooms are also fully equipped: a well-stocked fridge (we love that), a nice shower, a mega and comfortable bed, spacious balcony (check!) and (if you want) even with your own swimming pool. We say: do it.

Room service, fast wifi and a flat screen-TV is of course also included.

What you can expect

What you can expect

Swimming pools? Yep. More than you can count on one hand. From large relaxation pools to children's pools and water slide paradises: you only have to choose. Prefer a dip in the sea? The private beach is within crawling distance.

In terms of food, you are in good hands here, from an extensive breakfast buffet to multiple restaurants (both buffet and a la carte). Think: local Turkish dishes, international cuisine, fish, meat and vegetarian. The little ones have also been taken into account with child-friendly options.

There is more

There is more

And then we haven't even mentioned the spa and wellness (do it!), yoga classes with sea view, a well-equipped gym and that great running track. For the kids: a children's paradise with slides, play corners and animation.

For whom? Actually for everyone: couples, families, groups of friends or only travelers who just want everything arranged. Luxurious, but not too stiff. Large, but personal. You don't want to go home, and fortunately you don't have to right away.

If you want to get out of the resort for a while - yes, you can - there is also plenty to discover nearby. From ancient temples to idyllic bays, cozy villages and surprisingly nice hotspots.
