Maritim Grand Azur Hotel

The elegant Grand Azur is in a fantastic location set in lush tropical gardens leading down to its own section of the beach with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. The stunning pool area with its cascading water slide, surrounded by sun terraces and gardens with sunbeds and umbrellas, is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the sun. Some prefer the beach where the Grand Azur has its own sunbeds and umbrellas, a beach bar and a watersports centre. In the hotel gardens there are 3 tennis courts (charge for floodlights and equipment only).

For children there is a separate pool. The lower ground floor houses the health and fitness centre which has Turkish Bath, Sauna, Steam bath and gym (all free of charge) and massage (extra charge, payable locally) as well as a Vitamin Bar where you can sample a selection of herbal teas. The Grand Azur shopping arcade caters for almost every need with a Dry Cleaner, Hairdressing salon, Internet café, Jewellery and branded goods, daily essentials and newspapers and photographer.

La Patisserie offers a choice of delicious cakes and pastries and has a superb view overlooking the pool, gardens and sea. The circular bar, Aphrodite, in the lounge is a popular meeting place and the Terrace outside is the perfect place for a pre- or post-dinner drink. A rich buffet is served at the Palmiye Restaurant, which also has seating outside, where the show cooking takes place and there is soft live music. Half-board guests may also eat at the a-la-carte Italian restaurant for an extra charge, which is usually the menu price with a discount. For nightbirds, the nightclub or beach bar (seasonal) has a programme of varied floorshows.

The Grand Azur rooms are elegant and tastefully furnished with TV, mini-bar, air-conditioning, twin or king-size beds, safe deposit box, telephone, hairdryer, full bathroom and balcony. Highly recommended.
