The "oop oop chicken soup" comment gave it away (hiya Barb, lol)
Anyway....I booked this holiday then read the reviews and was a little wary..
On arrival I was shown to my room and was pleasantly surprised, it was a 3 bedroom apartment, had plenty of room...
All the hotel staff were fantastic and couldnt do enough to help - as one previous review said, they do try to releive you of as much money as possible, but this is because the staff all work on a commision only basis - ok, they get their food and accomodation, but you want more than that if you are working for 16 hours a day - and a few of the staff were doing those hours.
Myself and a few others that I got to know were all kept entertained by the bar staff, especially Rambo, Dave and Mario (he isnt wired up right, lol)
And Mario, if you read this, I havent forgotten your bottle of J. Walker, lol
And as for the food - couldnt fault it all.....
Afew people did complain about the noise from the bar in the early hours, but they were given other rooms at the earliest oppurtunity..
Many thanks to all the staff there, I will be back in October...
Only fault from my point of view was the dj - but that seemed to be a common problem in the area as I didnt see one good dj anywhere in Marmaris while I was there.

Hotel staff were really funny and helpful. They never pressured any drinks and if anything lowered our bar tabs! We didn't eat there much and they did ask us where we were going out of curiosity and making conversation, they actually gave us tips on nice places to eat.
The cleaners came in everyday and changed bedding every time I asked. They were really smiley and also very polite.
The location is good as it is not far from the bus stop to the centre and 10 mins from the beach.
We had no problem with our room, it was a studio and although the roof is on a slant it was OK as the view was gorgeous and balcony huge. My partner is 6' 5" and he had no complaints. I think other reviews of this are just snobs clutching at straws.
The bar was great fun and the noise never kept us awake.
We felt as if our holiday was a real bargain and it is a great memory. If you are looking for a 5* hotel where people keep themselves to themselves don't stay.
If you want a bargain where the atmosphere and staff are great, and you want to make holiday friends go to Kaan.
On getting to the reception area, we asked for a quiet apartment, which they had no problem giving us.
The apartment itself, was reasonably spacious, with most of the facilities you would really want [kettle, fridge, 2 ring hob, cutlery and crockery]. The apartment overlooked local residents, So we wonder what sights they must have seen in the past!.
after settling in, I [paul] decided to check out the bar. to my amazement, they were showing the ukraine vs england soccer game!. Amazing as it was internet only in england.
The food [we were on bed and breakfast] was limited. Of course, if you wanted anything other than the b+b choice [scrambled egg or beans or cheese or poached/fried eggs on toast or a turkish breakfast] it cost extra. A full english was 5tl. We did find that the service was quite slow though, more on that later. We must admit, we had breakfast out one day, and it was much better for a similar price.
The snack service was very good, cheese burger, bacon butty and 2 portions of chips 21tl and they delivered it to our room with no problem. The only problem was they tried to charge us twice for one meal.
As it was the end of the season, the staff were visibly knackered. Which, as they seemed to be doing everything, from breakfast service to running the bar til at least 2am is not surprising. Breakfast was between 8-10 but no one was about sometimes!.
On leaving though, the staff pulled out all the stops for us. Our pre-booked and pre-paid transfer to dalaman airport failed to turn up. After one of the lads phoned the company concerned, arranged an alternative for us. One of their permanent residents, who was a bus driver, got out of bed and got us to the airport just in time. For that we are eternally grateful.
In conclusion, would we stay there again? yes we would.

However the best thing about our holiday had to be the staff. David,rambo,jimmy,taner,mario, and the guy behind reception (cant remember his name sorry) were all fantastic. Perhaps the friendliest people weve ever had the pleasure of staying with on holiday. David and rambo told us everything we needed to know and also booked all of our excusrions that we wanted. They also just used to sit down with us for a chat and even bought us a few drinks themselves.
Another pathetic comment i have read is saying that the staff were sexual pests, i cant stress what a load of rubbish that was, me and my two sons went quad biking, and my wife did not fancy it so she stayed at the appartments by her self and she had no trouble what so ever.
I really can not rate this complex hugh enough, was the best holiday we have had as a family, and we will be going back there next year.
So please dont be put off by any silly comments about a cake or having to sleep with a knife!
Thanks to everyone there for an awesome holiday!
