Maya World Didyma Hotel

I was a little uncertain having read some bad reviews but I needn't have. With one gripe it was a very positive experience and we all enjoyed out week here. The hotel is spread out on a large site. There is lots of grass and trees. There are hundreds of crickets which are rather noisy. But the location is very peaceful with wonderful views of the Aegean Sea. Pool The pool is a pretty uniform depth and a reasonable size. I enjoyed having an early morning swim with the pool to myself. The pool was very warm. The slides were good fun. There is a life guard on duty so it feels very safe. There seemed to be enough sunbeds and there was plenty of shade if you wanted it. Bars We used the Beach Bar and the Pool bar. I have found the staff to be really friendly. Their English was good enough to understand what you wanted. The beer was excellent. I didn't have the cocktails but the rest of my party assured me they were gone. You can help yourself to tea and coffee. There is a fridge near the pool bar where you can get small cups of cold water whenever you wanted. I thought the whiskey was good and the gin and tonics were very nice. Sometimes you had to queue a while but that was usually because people were ordering multiple drinks. Food The food was definitely aimed at Turkish people - and since we were in Turkey this was great. The bread on offer was really delicious. Breakfast was fruit, cheese, cold meat, omelets, hard boiled eggs, salad stuff, fried bread sprinkled with sugar. The butter was disappointing in flavour but that is a minor issue. Lunch and dinner were similar. There was some very good fish every day. There was lamb cooked with tomatoes or aubergines. It was very tender. Lots of turkey and chicken. In the evening something was always freshly grilled. I really enjoyed the rice and there were some delicious flat breads stuffed with potato or spinach. The puddings were mostly syrupy cakes and fruit. I thought the food was good quality and well cooked. Animation The animation team were very friendly but didn't force people to take part. There were darts games, water polo in the afternoon, aqua gym etc etc. There was the usual mini-disco. From what I could see the team were very good with the children and happy to play with them. Room We had two rooms that were attached to each other so only one front door. Our room had a normal key and the lock seemed flimsy. Other rooms seemed to have key cards. Maybe the rooms we had are awaiting refurbishment. The beds were very comfortable. The bed in our room was a super king. There were enough pillows. The air-conditioning was very efficient. There was enough toiletries in terms of soap, shower gel and shampoo. The room had a fridge and a kettle. Small bottles of water were replaced every day in the fridge. The balcony had a drying rack and was a reasonable size. Towels were changed daily and were of a good size. This is where I have my major gripe. The bathroom was not a 4 star bathroom. We had two bas

We are here just now and I have to say the food really is awful I've had an upset stomach all day from it. The hotel is very run down, our room is in a small wooden shack with a tiny toilet area that doesn't even have anywhere to hang your towels while you are in the shower. Both the bathroom door and the front door keep sticking. There are no British channels only one news which is in English but from Turkey so very poor. And my mini fridge doesn't work!! Some of the staff are lovely others are absolute d***s. There is nowhere nearby to exchange currency I can't remember the last time I stayed at a hotel and they didn't have a currency exchange at reception even 3 star hotels have currency exchange especially if the nearest one is in town. They don't have any maps of the hotel site and I'm completely at a loss as to where this a la carte restaurant is nor of the local area. The only good thing about this place is the beach, the water is lovely and the sand decently clean. I do like our maid as well she is doing a good job. There is no board to tell guests what the entertainment will be of an evening so take a guess or take a chance. This hotel is not even 3 stars I would give it 2 at best and that's only because it's sunny!!

This is our 3d time in this hotel and every year it's getting better. Rooms are lovley, clean. Food is good. And staff are very helpfull. We definitely come back again. 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩵🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

Really enjoyed my time here. The hotel was clean and comfortable, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. The food was excellent, with plenty of variety and great flavors. The sea was beautiful and perfect for relaxing. There were a few dogs around the hotel, they were really friendly and added to the charm of the place. I even ended up feeding them and swimming with them in the sea, which made the stay even more special. Overall, a great holiday and I’d definitely come back

Thank you, Maya World! The hotel is absolutely wonderful — clean, well-maintained rooms with daily housekeeping, and friendly staff. The beach is tidy and well-kept, and the food is simply amazing — varied and delicious! Our stay was unforgettable — comfort, coziness, and genuine care were felt in everything. We will definitely come back here again, more than once! Thank you for this amazing and unique vacation!

I like everything about the hotel! Nice, clean pool, three slides. Everything is within walking distance to the room. The staff is very good and friendly! The food is delicious, a beautiful view opens from the restaurant, there is a lot of space! The sea is super, the beach is clean. Cosy loungers, lots of umbrellas. The animation team is very good, the girls Diana, Saule and Halil are very nice, they always organised different games and shows! It was so much fun, we liked this hotel very much, we will definitely come back!))
