Beach isn’t nice, but you can save a lot of money if you book correctly
I generally enjoy CM, but I would not recommend this village. Before explaining why, I want to give the info about saving money for people who don’t want to read my opinion. How to save $€£¥ — CM often charges different prices in different countries. To get the lower rates, book through a different version of the clubmed website - they have different sites in different countries. TripAdvisor won’t let me post links, but there’s .us, .com.tr,.com.au, .com.mx, etc. Easiest way to do this is with an international VPN to do this. The price on the Turkish website was $100 per day less than the American website. Now I will explain why I do not recommend this resort. For me the biggest problem is that the beach is not nice. When I go to the coast I want to enjoy the waterfront. Kas and some parts of Bodrum or other spots along the coast have prettier water and some nicer beaches. Another negative for me is that the village is quite large, with capacity for 2200. The CdV walks around to chat with people, but the resort feels fairly impersonal compared to other CMs. I would definitely not want to be there when it’s full. the restaurants and sitting areas and bars would probably be a madhouse, and it would be difficult to find a lounge chair because almost nobody sits on the beach and the other areas fill up. The capacity of sports is also limited for such a large property. The circus opens for adults only in the afternoons with only one trapeze (unlike the 2 they have in punta cana). They may have quite long lines in summer. They also only had 11 sailboats and sometimes all of them were being used. when the village is full it may be difficult to get a boat. The padel is very poorly organized, and the GOs make it difficult to find playing partners. It would be very easy to have a sign-up board for guests who do not have partners and are looking for a game. Or they could setup a fixed time for round-robin or pickup games. Unfortunately CM does not do either of these simple things. Instead, I was told by one GO to come at 8:30 to find partners, another told me to come at 11:00, a 3rd took my mobile number and told me he would text guests to organize a game and then never contacted me. One last GO gave me the idiotic advice to look around the resort to find other players - if I could find players I wouldn’t be asking him for help. Overall the GOs at padel were useless. FWIW I also think the bartenders make some drinks very badly. They offer things like piña-coladas and fruit daiquiris, but they make them without a blender and serve them as mixed drinks over ice. Even worse, they do not use actual fruit in the daiquiris and instead use banana liqueur. This won’t matter to most people, but CM has poor policies for their frequent guest program - every other hotel program i have used treated me much better. They refused to credit my GM account for the trip. The company was non-responsive when I tried to resolve this. The agents on the US phone number told me I had to call the Turkish number, the Turkish office told me that they couldn’t fix it because I’m registered as a GM in the US, and the people at the reception desk at the hotel did not know how the policy works. Nobody I spoke to was able to explain why I did not get credit. CM talks about valuing their regular guests, but they certainly did not demonstrate it to me.
