It has three outdoor pools and a children pool, two restaurants, a bar, a convenience store, a gift shop and a free breakfast buffet. Room types run from a compact economy room for one to standard rooms, superior triples, a two-bedroom family room of around 377 square feet and a three-bedroom deluxe suite that sleeps seven. Rooms have air conditioning, a minibar, free wifi, blackout drapes and a wardrobe. It suits families and groups who want a pool resort at a modest price and are happy to go out for beaches and nightlife.
Location and getting around
Hisarönü sits in the hills above Ölüdeniz, with a main street of bars, restaurants and shops. Ölüdeniz Beach is about a five-minute drive, Kumburnu Beach about 15 minutes, and Fethiye Marina about 17. The Lycian Way trail access is around four minutes by car, and the cable car to Babadağ and the Ölüdeniz Nature Park are within about two miles.
Dalaman airport is a drive of about 75 minutes, and the hotel has no private beach, so plan on dolmuş minibuses or taxis for the sand. Bars along the village street are a short walk.
The rooms
The Economy Room is for one guest, the Standard Room sleeps two with a balcony, the Superior Triple Room has a garden view and sleeps four, and the Family Room has two bedrooms. The Deluxe Suite has three bedrooms. Choose a room away from the corridors if you are a light sleeper, since busy times can be noisy.
Facilities and services
The three pools and the children pool are the focus of the stay, and the hotel also has a 24-hour front desk, a concierge, multilingual staff, a hair salon, a laundry, a lobby with television and a free daily manager reception. Two restaurants serve guests, and breakfast is included. Meal plans and dinner are available at an extra charge. The hotel does not offer parking, so plan for taxis or street parking nearby.
Who it suits
Families, groups of friends and travellers who want a large pool complex and the energy of Hisarönü. Pets are not allowed, and the premises are smoke-free. Couples after a quiet hideaway may prefer Ölüdeniz or Kayaköy.
Good to know
Check-in starts at 2 pm and check-out is at noon. The pools are not heated, so they can be cool in spring and autumn. Check opening dates and facilities when you book, especially outside summer, and note that free cancellation applies on some rates.
