Restaurants and Bars

Food is a real strong point at Jiva Beach Resort. The main buffet restaurant lays on generous spreads of Turkish and international dishes at breakfast, lunch and dinner, with live cooking stations and plenty of choice for younger palates.

Three à la carte restaurants up the ante in the evening. Bubon brings Asian flair with Chinese, Thai and Japanese specialities; Paprica serves Italian, Spanish and French classics with a casual-chic vibe; and The Roof showcases Turkish cuisine with sweeping views from the rooftop terrace. Guests staying 7 nights or more typically receive one complimentary à la carte dinner per stay (reservation required, subject to availability).

For drinks, you’ll find a pool bar, snack bar, lounge bar and Caria Disco, along with additional poolside serving points depending on season. Expect a mix of local and selected international branded drinks as part of All Inclusive Plus (note that drinks at Freud Bar are not included). Smart-casual dress codes often apply in the evening, especially in the à la cartes.

Please note: restaurant opening dates and times, reservation policies and supplements can vary by season and board arrangement; details are confirmed locally.

Pool Areas and Beach

Pool days are easy here, with a choice of five outdoor freshwater pools including a dedicated children’s pool with slides and waterfall, a pool with slides for bigger kids and adults, and a quieter heated pool usually warmed in spring. Sunbeds and parasols line the sun terraces and pool decks, and complimentary towels are provided.

Little ones are well looked after with inflatables and water toys permitted in the kids’ pool. At busier times, extra pool areas open up depending on occupancy, so there’s usually space to spread out.

Step outside the gardens and you’re straight onto Calis’ long stretch of sand-and-shingle beach – ideal for an early-morning stroll, a sunset walk or just lazing by the water with a book.

Spa, Sports and Other Facilities

The air-conditioned gym is well-equipped with cardio kit, free weights and strength machines, open daily during the main season for guests 16 and over. If you prefer organised activities, you can dip into aerobics, aqua aerobics, yoga, darts, mini-golf, climbing and table tennis, with programme intensity varying by time of year.

The spa area adds a traditional Turkish touch, with a sauna, steam room, Turkish bath, whirlpool and a menu of massages and beauty treatments, plus an on-site hairdresser (local charges apply).

Around the resort you’ll also find an on-site mini-market for everyday bits, convenient reception services including concierge and luggage storage, and spacious communal areas for relaxing between beach and pool sessions.
