When I visited with my grandma this year the Acanthus hotel, I knew what we are getting ourselved into...it is the perfect place for all people who do not like these huge hotels and like to stay a bit more private but still very greatly located at the beach. The breakst and dinner which was included in halfboard was more... More

We were told this place was heaven on earth and spontaneously booked a 10-day ‘All-Inclusive’ holiday through HOTELPLAN/BENTOUR for the end of July. But boy, were we ever far removed from paradise. The flight was delayed – so much so that the gate to the hotel grounds was closed when we arrived at 3 in the morning. The shuttle bus... More

Completely agree with every comment in Jenna R's review. We would not normally choose a beach holiday but went here as my daughter is also a travel consultant, in Side for her second year. We were surprised at how much we enjoyed our stay and could not fault the hotel or staff.

We stayed at the Acanthus at the beginning of August and found the hotel clean and waiting staff and cleaners very friendly but the reception staff spoke very little engish. The hotel was full of germans and russians and the hotel catered for the german guests will no english food available. Not good when you have fussy eater with you... More

went to the Acanthus first 2 weeks in august 2011 with Thomas cook, Hotel is lovely but be aware that the whole place is full of Germans! We found that we were defenitly in a minority.
