As someone who was looking for a summer vacation with my little family, I must say that IC Hotels Residence did not disappoint!
This was our first time in Antalya and we were looking for a resort with a blend between fun for the children and relaxation for the adults and I am delighted to know we made the right choice! We stayed in the calm and serene Lake Villa (Duplex), which had access to a shared pool with 2 bedrooms and a living area. The Villa was spacious and maintained to a good standard daily and the pool was perfect for us for a morning swim.
As a guest of the Residence, we also had access to the IC Green Palace and this was great for us as it allowed the kids to enjoy all the facilities, such as the aqua parks, beach, snack bars as well as Kids clubs and evening theatre performances (which by the way is hugely underestimated!). Ice cream and cold/hot drinks are never too far away as everything is available within reach.
If you're good with noise well into the night and crowds of people throughout the day then IC Green Palace is still a very good option. If you're looking for a relaxing stay, away from all the noise and a more refined and sophisticated experience, then I would suggest spending the extra to stay at the Residence.
The perks of the residence include things like access to the amazing Mavi restaurant (great selection of food with a more refined elegance) and 24/7 bar, on sight pool, relaxation sauna and hamam area etc. We will go again, highly recommend!
