Certified Sustainable Hotel

Hotel Aqua occupies a standout spot in Icmeler, one of the Dalaman Area’s most scenic resorts. The hotel’s gardens lead straight to the seafront promenade, with the sandy beach just across the way, while pine-clad hills rise behind for that classic Turquoise Coast backdrop.

You’re only 200m from Icmeler resort centre, so cafés, bars, mini-markets and restaurants are all a short stroll away. Wander along the canal past moored boats and flower-filled gardens, browse the local markets for leather goods and spices, or hop in a taxi or dolmuş to nearby Marmaris for a livelier evening scene and marina nightlife.

It’s a relaxed yet convenient base that works just as well for lazy beach days as it does for exploring the wider coastline on boat trips and jeep safaris.

You’re well looked after with 24-hour All Inclusive at Hotel Aqua, making it easy to relax into holiday mode.

The main Aquarius Restaurant is a buffet venue serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, with show-cooking at breakfast and dinner plus a kids’ buffet and highchairs available. Expect a mix of Turkish specialities and international favourites, with plenty of salads, grills and fresh-baked bread.

For something a little more intimate, there are two à la carte restaurants:
• Aquarium À La Carte Restaurant – a smart-casual dinner venue with an international menu and kids’ options.
• Nakkash À La Carte Restaurant – showcasing Turkish cuisine in a more refined setting.

Snacks are a real highlight. From the Gozleme Corner on the terrace to the Waffle & Ice Cream Corner and the pastry-filled So Sweet Patisserie, there’s always something tempting between meals.

You’ll also find a generous choice of bars:
• Atrium Lobby Bar – sociable lounge for coffees, aperitifs and late-night drinks.
• Palm Bar – snack bar amid the gardens.
• Pool Bar – for chilled drinks by the pool.
• Sunset Beach Bar – steps from the sand, ideal for sundowners.

Local, international and some premium drinks are typically available 24 hours, with stocked minibars in rooms as part of the All Inclusive programme. A smart-casual dress code applies in restaurants (no beachwear), and à la carte visits require reservations with frequency depending on your stay.

What All Inclusive typically includes.

Hotel Aqua’s lagoon-style outdoor pool sits at the heart of the gardens, framed by tall palms and plenty of sunloungers and parasols. There’s a children’s section built into the pool so younger guests can paddle safely, and a waterfall feature adds to the resort feel.

The main outdoor pool is freshwater and typically heated from late March to the end of May, giving you a comfortable swim even in the earlier season. Pool towels are included, and inflatables are permitted, which keeps families happy.

Indoors, the spa features a heated freshwater pool with children’s section and whirlpool, usually heated from early April to the end of May – a great option on cooler days or as a pre-spa swim.

Step outside the gate and you’re almost instantly on the promenade and Icmeler’s sandy/pebble beach. Here you can rent loungers and parasols (local charge), take coastal walks in either direction or simply sit with a drink from the Sunset Bar watching boats glide across the bay.
