Aqi Pegasos Club

My first stay in an all-inclusive hotel, and it was an amazing experience! There were plenty of advantages: a) The daytime entertainment program was fabulous. Every day, there were fitness activities (stretching, yoga, cardio) and swimming pool fitness. In addition, there were activities for adults like water polo and various contests! b) The evening entertainment program – Each evening, you could choose from one of three shows to watch. This is a benefit of the complex of three hotels. Every hotel has its own amphitheater, and you can visit any of them, including those with swimming pools! c) The hotel offers plenty of seating in the evenings, both near the indoor and outdoor bars. d) Free games such as archery, boccia, and more. e) A wide variety of food. f) An à la carte restaurant, free to visit once per stay, offering Turkish, Italian, or Asian cuisine. g) The seaside – a 1 km private beach with a pier, and sand underfoot. Three disadvantages: a) People with allergies – The plus is that all dishes are labeled, but there have been cases where allergens were improperly indicated. I’m celiac and more aware of gluten-free restrictions than the cooks. Almost all meat was prepared with gluten, including all sauces. There were no gluten-free soups available. There is a gluten-free stand, but it only offers seeds, bread, and pudding. Gluten-free cakes were available upon request, but they didn’t have cheesecake during my whole stay, so my only dessert options were tiramisu, pudding, or nothing. You can ask for gluten-free pizza (only with tomato) or pasta. For breakfast, gluten-free pancakes were available, but I noticed they used the same pan as for wheat pancakes... . It's a pity that even fries couldntt be gluten-free (they fried them in the same place as breaded snacks (in spite of availabity of two different "pots" - one could be for fries, one for breaed snacks..). All in all, this hotel is better than one where there are no gluten-free options. As I understand the gluten-free products and awaraness is limited in Turkey. I hope it will be better and I could came back in a few years. b) Road to the town – 2,5 km from the town, good for a walk, but you have to walk on the pavement by the loud road... pollution and noise. c) Rooms could use renovation, but everything was cleaned daily :)

I can’t explain how much we enjoyed our stay. There are no negatives. The facilities are incredible, the staff are next level. If you’re thinking on your next trip don’t hesitate. Turok in the restaurant and the rest of the staff couldn’t do enough for us and remembered us on our last visit 2 years ago. Krystyna in the activities department was amazing and had a wonderful experience in Archery. Our rooms were always immaculately cleaned and the staff could always be seen cleaning no matter the hour. Everyone was so helpful and the Spa staff were brilliant. Tui reps and kids club are out of this world. Words can’t do this place justice. A* all the way p.s. the evening entertainment WOW!
