I was served a meal of lamb shish-kebab by the pool whilst at the apartments. Unfortunately, I could not eat it, as it was COMPLETELY fat and grissle with no lean meat. They were trying it on. The mistake I made was not rejecting it immediately but instead trying to chew it and making the best of it. On drawing... more

First and foremost the food: We had heard the fare was excellent in Kalkan but this was an understatement. So many good restaurants - particulary by the Harbour. We made the mistake of thinking that the "please book" notices displayed on the restaurants was unnecessary and ended up on the first night having to sit with a drink for an... more

Just returned from 2 weeks in Kalkan staying at the Samira Deluxe, nice rooms and very friendly and helpful staff but if like me you are not a soccer fan give it a miss 'cause like it or not it's on every possible opportunity, another drawback is the location up a steep hill but the bonus is the view, we... more

We stayed at the Samira for one week last week- weather was fine, if not a little grey the first 2 days. We arrived approx 1am in the morning and waited for 10 minutes at reception before we were seen by anyone. When we were met by somebody, it was the barman who was extremely rude and unhelpful. Eventually we... more

We returned to the lovely Kalkan after 2 years and discovered taxi and bus fairs were all controlled. Boat fares were all the same and the appearance of English breakfasts and sky sports.. Samira deluxe is spoilt by the families young children running and screaming from 8 in the morning till 11 at night, not supervised at all. The pool... more

We stayed at the Samira Deluxe Apartments for 12 days at the beginning of September. Our apartment was very clean and well equipped (although it was too hot to do any cooking). Cleaned daily and towels/linen changed regularly. We were lucky to have a nice balcony view on the side of the main reception building and were not overlooked. The... more

Having read the reviews I agree with most of them. But lets be realistic about the 'boys' behind the bar. Yes, they want your money, but they have a short season and what they earn in the Summer has to keep them all year. They work excessively long hours for little reward. We were there in Ramadam, and whilst I... more

We had never been to Turkey before and although we had heard good things about it, we were still surprised by how friendly everyone was. This was especially true about all the staff at the Samira Deluxe Apartments who really helped make our stay there a special one. The food at the hotel, in the restaurants and especially in the... more
