Overview
Hotel Aqua Marmaris is a five-star seafront resort on the Içmeler Bay coastline that combines extensive family-friendly facilities with options for couples and solo travellers. The hotel has 269 rooms, each with its own balcony, and operates on an All-Inclusive concept that brings a wide range of dining outlets, bars and leisure amenities together on-site. Guests can expect a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces, including multiple pools, a dedicated spa centre with Turkish bath and specialised treatments, and entertainment programmed throughout the day and evening. Accessibility features and services are provided for guests with reduced mobility, while a variety of paid extras are available for those who want additional conveniences during their stay.
Location
Positioned directly on the seafront of Içmeler Bay, the hotel offers immediate access to a sandy and pebbly Blue Flag beach with shower and changing facilities and a designated sunbathing area for wheelchair users. The hotel is a short distance from Içmeler’s central hub where local restaurants and shops can be explored, and it lies within easy reach of Marmaris town. Transfer connections to the region are straightforward, with the nearest major airport being a road journey away, making the resort an accessible base for exploring the Aegean and Mediterranean meeting point that frames the coastline here.
Facilities
The property provides a broad spectrum of complementary services and on-site amenities, including multiple restaurants and bars, indoor and outdoor pools, a heated outdoor pool, an indoor pool and a spa pool with massage features, a fitness centre, hammam, sauna and steam room. There are also family-oriented conveniences such as a kiddie pool, children’s playground, mini club and a children’s buffet in high season, together with internet access in rooms and public areas and an internet café. A range of paid services is available to complement the complimentary offering, for example, laundry and ironing services, hairdressing, specialist massages and beauty treatments, car hire, a meeting room and various retail outlets.
Room
Accommodation is presented across several room types designed to meet different requirements, from standard land view rooms to limited sea view options and attic suites with separate living areas and additional balcony space. Standard rooms are arranged with either a double bed or twin beds and offer options for infant cots; some room types are not suitable for a third adult, and the additional bed provided for children may differ from a standard bed. Attic suites provide an expanded layout with separate living and sleeping areas and multiple balcony aspects that capture views across Içmeler Bay, and all guest rooms feature the practicalities expected in a resort of this standard, including balconies for outdoor sitting.
Sports & Entertainment
Daytime activity is driven by an animation team that organises a programme of land and pool activities, and the hotel provides floodlit tennis courts, basketball, table tennis and billiards as part of its sports provision. Water sports are organised locally around Içmeler Bay by third-party operators, offering equipment and excursions such as jet skiing, parasailing, banana boating and canoeing. Evening entertainment is a core feature of the hotel with professional stage shows and live music at its outdoor bars and snack areas, and a weekly Turkish Night that brings traditional folk dances and performances. Children’s animation and a mini club cater for younger guests with age-appropriate activities and a shaded playground.
Dining & Bars
Food and beverage provision includes main buffet restaurants with indoor and outdoor seating, à la carte restaurants with Mediterranean and traditional Turkish specialities, and several bars offering a selection of imported and local alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Tableside service is available at indoor and outdoor bar areas, and the hotel adheres to recognised hygiene and safety standards supported by relevant certificates. Guests can select from the range of outlets for informal poolside service, pool coffee bar options and structured dining in the main restaurant or smaller speciality venues, while themed dinners and à la carte reservations are offered as part of the hotel’s culinary programme.
