Good value and great location
The hotel is located a really short walk from the main strip so is really convenient. It’s a large complex so is not quiet if that’s what you’re looking for. Enough sunbeds around the pool although in the height of summer it might be a struggle. There are closing times so hopefully the towel wars are not a problem here although we didn’t experience any during our stay. Staff are polite. All inclusive package is really reasonable with all your basic local spirits, wine and beer. Main restaurant is spacious, really clean and the food is tasty and plentiful with a good selection. Snack bar and ice creams by the pool is also a nice touch. Rooms are standard. Clean, the beds are comfy and the showers had good pressure and hot water. Towels changed twice a week. Value for money is good. Would recommend for a decent stay in Turkey

Very poor
100% honest review..only been here 24hrs and I really don't know what all the good reviews are about....drinks are absolutely horrendous, evening meal not bad,, breakfast was very poor. And lunch even worse, waiting 35 mins for chips,, will see what the rest of the week brings...oh and had to change rooms straight away due to single room for 2 instead of double...

Great little find
Just returned!
Great little hotel,
prefect position,
food was good, (I'll eat anything),
drinks were good,
no queues,
Check in ....we managed to get in before 2pm
Had a fab time, brilliant sunshine, plenty of beds, pool was cold but fine once you're in......🥶
Staff are lovely and friendly, helpful, and whilst eating are constantly clearing tables of anything you have finished with,
Special mention to Hassan.... entertainment team he's a cracking lad, constantly on the go, trying to include you in all be does!
Special mention to Omer.... photos..... Really attentive, constantly smiling, remembers your name from the first day to the last, and comes to see you each day wherever you are, to chat, make you laugh etc etc
Cracking assets to the hotel!
Weather wasn't the greatest whilst we were there but that's not the hotel! But when the sun was out it was lovely and warm, no arguments over beds etc,
We'll defo be back,
Top tips,
- although it's right on the shops etc, get a bus to hisaranou for your clothes etc we foud it quite a bit cheaper, for the same stuff,
- Make sure you visit the blue lagoon beach, various bars down there (billies beach, sugar club etc etc) awesome for relaxing
- Left , out of the hotel to the end of that road is a bar called rose and crown, brill karaoke bar, good prices, very friendly
Thanks karbel hotel.
See you all again soon

Theft from the room, overbooking, and terrible management response
We stayed at the Karbel Hotel from September 12th to September 19th. The location is very beautiful, surrounded by mountains and paragliders, and the Blue Lagoon is within walking distance. The rooms themselves were decent, with a renovated bathroom and good water pressure in the shower. However, our holiday was completely ruined by the hotel staff and management. On the third day of our stay, $150 was stolen from a cardholder hidden inside the desk during daily room cleaning. We didn't expect this and unfortunately hadn't put it in the safe. When we reported the theft to the hotel, the Russian-speaking manager arrived and immediately started blaming us instead of helping. She rudely claimed that their staff "could never steal" anything. It turned out the hotel has no security cameras in the corridors. We had to go to the local police ourselves. The police promised to come to the hotel to investigate, but nobody ever showed up, and the hotel management didn't even bother to apologize to us. Another major issue is overbooking. We were lucky to get our room, but we witnessed many Russian-speaking tourists being redirected to a neighboring hotel with much worse conditions. Terrible safety, zero customer service, and absolute lack of responsibility from the management. Avoid this place if you value your money and peace of mind!
A really good 3 star hotel
Recently spent 10 days at the Karbel. Really well placed for the strip of bars, restaurants and shops. If you have mobility problems this hotel might offer a problem as there is no lifts to rooms or reception, restaurant from pool area. On the positive side, the rooms are clean, modern and the showers are brilliant. Food is in a buffet selection, and there is a good selection and tasty. Animation team really try and a big high five to Hassan who was brilliant. Would I return, Definitely!!!!
