Elista Hotel & Spa

Location: Highly praised for being in Türkbükü, near the beach, with easy access to local shops, restaurants, and taxis.

I couldn’t wait to share how special this place is. From the very beginning — even before we arrived — we were welcomed not just as guests, but as if we were returning friends. The booking process over WhatsApp was smooth and kind, with Kamil and Bayram at the reception being incredibly helpful and efficient. Knowing I was traveling with my 80-year-old mother, they even sent me a video to show the exact steps and entrance — such a thoughtful gesture that made us feel safe and cared for before we even stepped into the hotel. Once we arrived, that same spirit continued. The entire team may not speak fluent English, but their kindness, generosity, and heartfelt attention spoke volumes — far more meaningful than words. Every single member of the staff was warm, present, and genuinely attentive, especially to my mother. Their care made all the difference in our stay. ⸻ Room (S01 – Honeymoon Suite): Every detail has been thoughtfully considered — from soft-close drawers and bedside sockets to a serene balcony with both sunrise and moonrise views. There’s a cozy little gourmet corner with kettle, teas, coffee, and fridge. The bathroom is compact but perfect, with excellent water pressure and lovely, high-quality products (the shampoo and shower gel smell divine). Housekeeping was spotless — our room was taken care of daily by two kind, attentive ladies (Suraya and Medine) who never let us run out of water, towels, or anything we might need. 💧 It’s a wet-style shower — so yes, the bathroom floor can get wet if you’re not careful 😂 But it’s the same in my own home, so I felt right at home! 😉 I brought my laptop to watch films and series and ended up not even needing the TV. The Wi-Fi worked perfectly. 👉 A thoughtful detail worth mentioning: The sliding glass door to the balcony is sound-insulated, which is ideal since Türkbükü is a lively area — yet inside the room, it feels calm and quiet when the door is shut. The air conditioning is also cleverly designed: it only activates when the balcony door is fully closed, which not only helps with energy efficiency but also ensures that the room stays cool effectively. You can easily control the temperature and fan speed — everything works smoothly and intuitively. ⸻ Breakfast is a true Turkish feast — varied, generous, fresh, and delicious. The pool stays warm from the sun all day — my mum loved it in the late afternoon before sunset. ⸻ The Sea Deck — a hidden gem: The deck area is pure bliss. The sea is calm, crystal clear, and truly feels like a private pool. The gentle steps made it super easy even for my 80-year-old mother to enjoy a refreshing swim. There’s a shower right after, and the whole setup is serene and simple. But what truly made this area shine was the wonderful host at the deck — (Fatih— who, by the way, wears the coolest shirts in Türkbükü). He is kind, attentive, and incredibly generous with his time and energy. Not only does he care for the guests with sincere warmth, but he also

Extremely well located. Friendly staff. We will get back.
