Happy Hotel Kalkan

My husband and I are almost at the end of a two week stay at the Happy Kalkan Hotel. We booked it last minute and we're just looking for somewhere quiet to get a bit of sun. The hotel exceeded our expectations given what we paid for our holiday. Breakfast was included and, although simple, had fresh fruit, bread for toast, cereal, and done hot options (omelette made to order). The room was well appointed but the only thing I didn't like was the half bath / shower which took ages to drain. A full shower would be preferable. The hotel is just outside the main town of Kalkan but this meant the neighbourhood was quiet and a taxi in was only 4 euros. There are options nearby for eating out but the food at the hotel was much better (and very reasonable). The hotel pool was never crowded and there was no silly fighting over loungers (perhaps because the hotel put out their own towels). Pool water was an excellent temperature in August and I loved to swim in it. By far the best thing about the hotel are the staff. The two lovely ladies who cleaned our room each day always had a beautiful smile for us and Servan and Hasan who did the food / bar service were really friendly and professional. Kudos to the chef too.

Not sure where to start but from the moment we arrived at 3am the staff have been nothing but wonderful. The room was clean and fresh although a little dated but that’s what you pay for. The only thing I would say could be a bit better would be breakfast. Theirs something to eat but gets a little boring. Maybe some pastries or something every now and again. The pool and view is stunning. Not once did I ever have an issue getting a sun lounger. The best part the bar staff! They were wonderful and so attentive! Food is reasonably priced along with the drinks. I really enjoy the gym and unfortunately there was no treadmill however this has been replaced and waiting to be built. I’ve never said I’d go back somewhere but I genuinely have looked at returning next year it was that good. Kalkan is a lovely place to visit and not as busy as the other resorts

Returned to Happy Hotel after 7yrs and it was still just as good. Very clean,staff perfect. Food at hotel very good. Sunbeds excellent with pool towels provided

Just returned from a fabulous week at the Happy Hotel Kalkan. This hotel is a little gem of a place. The pool area has gorgeous views and really comfortable sun loungers to Sit and soak up the beautiful sun and the large quiet pool gives welcome relief. Added bonus is no sun-bed wars each morning as there were plenty of beds to go around! However, What really made this hotel stand out for us was the staff at the hotel. They really Couldn’t do enough for you to make you feel welcome and really looked after. Hasan the bar manager was really helpful with recommendations of what to do in the local area and where to eat. And his team of helpers at the bar and restaurant were an excellent asset to the hotel. Huge well done to them all! Hotel is a little dated in places but beautifully clean and looked after well. Kalkan is a stunning place to visit and we know now why people return here year after year! Looks like we will too next year!

Very nice clean room. Lovely balcony with sea view. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Fantastic hotel! We were here for a weeks holiday and had the best stay. Hotel rooms are spacious and extremely clean, aswell as the whole hotel area they do a lot on making the place look great. Our bar tender Hassan.. what a guy! Went out his way everyday for us making our experience as good as it could be. If you had any faults which we had absolutely none he would go out his way to fix it for you. Best service. I say the same for all hotel staff extremely friendly and helpful. Hotel food was absolutely beautiful we tried quite alot on the menu and it is all reasonably priced, cocktails are very presentable and tasted beautiful! The breakfast spread provided may not be for everyone but it was delicious and a great variety. The main town is aprox 5-7 mins in a taxi which is 130 lira, and a good 30 min walk, it is extremely hilly so we got a taxi there and back. And to top it off the view this hotel brings is stunning! So overall we thought this hotel is fantastic and won't disappoint.
