I have been surprised at some of the recent negative reviews and like another reviewer stated it's best to do some research before you choose. The hotel was not the normal European style of a huge concrete block of identical rooms but designed in small circular two story sets dotted throughout the complex. The walk up to our Mountain View room was daunting on the first night but my husband managed to find a less steep route for my creaking limbs and it was so beautiful up there that it was worth the walk.

You cross over a little bridge to access one of three octagonal shaped rooms each out on their own little arm so that none of the walls touched those of your neighbours. The rooms had a charming, almost Swiss chalet like feel with lots of wood, including a lovely ceiling. As already stated they are not big, though adequate and cosy.

The vivid colours of bougainvillea splash over on to balconies and all around are scented pine trees interwoven with bright exotic flowers and the gardens are ablaze with every colour imaginable in hibiscus, roses, chrysanthemums and many more. The contrast of the wilderness of the mountain gardens and the order of the valley gardens gives pleasure at all times and is a great credit to the gardeners. The scents are wonderful and the sounds of the many birds and insects fills the air whilst the myriad of beautiful butterflies adds to the enjoyment, if you're lucky you may see a family of wild tortoise. Sitting up on the balcony is akin to enjoying your own private Shangri-la!

How anyone can criticise the food is beyond me but each to their own, we dined out several times with family staying in the area and none reached the levels of this hotel. The staff were the best of any hotel I've experienced from cleaners and maintenance staff upward all worked extremely hard, were neat and clean and never appeared miserable. Our cleaner was brilliant as were the many jolly waiting on staff we met.

Many compliments have been given about pools and the lovely peaceful and cool sitting areas and I second those. Anya, the First Choice rep was the best I've ever met, nothing was too much trouble and even the smallest enquiry was responded to in a thorough manner. We also met Cisem, the Turkish First Choice wedding planner whose efficiency and pleasant manner was second to none.

As we married whilst we were there the hotel treated us to some lovely extras. there was half a bottle of 'champagne' on arrival, breakfast in bed the day after we were married and the delivery of more champagne and a basket of fruit too. In addition we were treated to La Turquoise a la carte dinner which was set around the pool and was truly amazing, they even put extra flowers and petals on our table; be warned: go hungry as there is food in abundance!

We also had the hotel photographer take a selection of images before we set off for the ceremony and we purchased many of these and the complete disc for a fraction of the price you would pay in the UK. I would strongly recommend this photographer he takes lovely images in fabulous settings which are a lovely memento for anyone's holiday.

If there was a negative it was the fact that you couldn't really get far without transport but for a break 'far from the madding crowd' this hotel is perfection.

We had a fantastic time at Montana Pine Resort. Right from the moment we were picked up from the Airport by the hotel we were made to feel welcome. It is in a beautiful location up in the Moutains overlooking Olu Deniz. Our room was lovely with views over the valley. We found the staff were the best we had ever come across. They were really polite and helpful but most of all friendly. We did not meet 1 miserable member of staff for the whole time we were there. The grounds and the pools are meticiously maintained. Some of the other recent reviews said that they felt it was too out of the way. I would say - do your research! We found the food so good at the hotel that we didn't feel the need to go anywhere else to eat but if you do it is really cheap and easy to get a taxi. Twice a week the whole dining experience is moved outside around one of the pools. It takes a lot of time and effort by all the staff but it is well worth it. It was lovely to sit and watch the sun go down whilst enjoying a lovely meal. If you book direct with Montana Pine you get the best rooms and wine and fruit in your room on arrival. They also collect you from the airport and take you back again. We will return!

Having read the reviews on Tripadvisor I expected this hotel to be something exceptional, but I was somewhat disappointed. The rooms were a good size with a nice big balcony, but not cleaned particularly well. We also had to ask for the tea and coffee to be replenished although we were told this was done daily. The pool and garden areas were very nice, and the food at the Marmara cafe was excellent. Shame the same couldn't be said about the main restaurant. The first week wasn't too bad, although if you eat later, as we did, a lot of the choices from the menu were not available. During the second week the standard seemed to drop significantly. Beware the salad bar - plates of vegetables from the previous days hot buffet would appear over and over again!

If you are in the Mountain view blocks furthest from reception be warned, there is a cockerel that starts crowing at about 4am!

We have just returned from a 2 week holiday at the Montana Pine and I have to say it was a bit of a disappointment. We were lucky to have a mountain room with a fantastic view, however the room's air conditioning was worse than useless and the hard and uncomfortable beds did not make for a good nights sleep.
Overall the staff were excellent with the exception of the reception staff who were not particularly helpful.
The location of the hotel (at the top of a very steep and unwalkable hill) in relation to Oludeniz made going out on an evening difficult, having to rely on taxis. The complimentary bus to the beach was a huge bonus.
The average age of the other guests was 60+ which was reflected in the entertainment and the emptiness of the bar area after 11pm.
We were half board and found the buffet style tiresome after the first few days preferring to eat out in Oludeniz where there were a number of very good traditional restaurants. Sultan Ahmet was particularly good and would definitely recommend it.
All in all if you like to walk to the resort and are under the age of 40 I wouldn't recommend this hotel to you.

I have been twice and am going back again. I like it for many reasons. The location is lovely, up in the mountains a short distance to Olu Deniz and to Fethiye. The hotel runs 3 free bus services daily to Olu Deniz in the morning and 3 collections late afternoon. There are frequent buses from near the hotel to Fetiye. As it is on a hillside it can be a slightly steep walk from the main reception and dining area to some of the rooms and also on the distance between the hotel and the bus stop.
The food gives plenty of choice every evening - maybe thirty types of salad, hot vegetables, meat, chicken and fish. The restaurant's head chef is always pleased to help and the hotel posts the menu of the day up in the morning, so should nothing appeal, you can always have a quick word. The food is predominently Turkish but this is similar to Greek/Meditarranean food for those not familiar with it. Breakfast is the usual British/Scandavian/German choices of eggs, cheese, bacon, fruits, cereals, yoghurt, breads etc.
There are three pool areas, and the whole of the grounds are clean and very well maintained. The staff are polite and helpful. The whole atmosphere is a quiet one mostly and a great place to go if you want to relax. On a couple of occasions it was noisy in the day but when we requested that the volume of music was turned down, they did that immediately. There is nightly entertainment but not of a good quality though the Turkish dancers are a must to see. The hotel makes a great effort to please and has two dinners a week by the side of the large pool with beautiful lighting and effects - very atmospheric. The wine is expensive in the hotel but Turkey isn't really a 'wine country' and the selection is expensive and overall disappointing. So it is most definitely not the best place for wine lovers.
If you are booking directly with the hotel I recommend that you email thems beforehand to discuss your requirements. There are rooms on a lower level for those who don't wish to 'climb' to their rooms and there are rooms away from the outdoor entertainment area for those wishing to have an early night.
The rooms are very clean and attractive in a Turkish style. They are not European in style and I say this as someone who reviewed was disappointed with their room. They are small but not tiny by any means.
Overall I found the quality of food, service and ambience very good and would be happy to recommend it.
