Set around the bay in between Icmeler and Marmaris, I think that Orka Lotus has an idyllic location, offering easy access to the beach and both Icmeler and Marmaris attractions, along with scenic views that are just stunning. I visited the hotel with my partner and mum, staying in a double room with sea view, and a single occupancy room with a land view. The rooms themselves were nice enough although not as large as some 5* accommodations I have experienced. By the time our cases were in, we didn’t have much space. The room with the sea view had a lovely balcony and it was beautiful to see over the bay of Icmeler. My mum’s room as single occupancy was not quite so nice, overlooking a scruffy building yard at the back. Additionally, the cleaners gathered first thing on the metal steps at the end by mum’s room, and the smell of cigarettes was very strong, alongside noise from them chatting loudly, early morning. In terms of the hotel's cleanliness a light can be left switched on to indicate that you would like your room cleaned. This involved sheets and a towel change. Hot water was plentiful and the showers really enjoyable. There is free water and soft drinks inside the fridge in the rooms. The air conditioning was excellent and the bed really comfortable. We all slept well. Whilst general cleaning is ok, we found that some of the areas did not have attention to detail and lift areas in particular were not so good and a little shabby. Even after the cleaner had been in, if we walked with bare feet, our soles were black! The WiFi in the room was a little hit and miss but better after midnight when folks had gone to bed and I managed to connect to my work laptop. The live music and ambiance were generally appreciated, with a couple of good shows such as the Turkish Night. Bingo is not really my thing but there is other entertainment. The main pool was a little too loud for me with muffled speakers blaring. They need a technical check :) But there is another Adult Pool at the end of the complex if need be. Horses for courses as some people seemed to enjoy the main pool - mainly those with kids. There’s also a small Aqua Park area for kids and another two smaller pools. Sun-beds are hard to come by and there are not many around the main pool area but they are plentiful on the beach which is lovely. The sea is beautiful. In terms of the staff's friendliness this was good- they were attentive and efficient and dealt with large numbers. I enjoyed the food quality and it was varied in terms of choice. There were snack bars dotted around which were also excellent. Especially the Gozleme on the beach. You can eat at any point of the day and there’s always something nice available. All in all this was a good experience and a lovely holiday was had. The clientele seemed to be mainly Turkish with a small mix of English families along the way. There is one shout out that I would like to be passed on to one of the waiting staff - SELDA. She did an amaz
