We were due to attend a conference at a nearby hotel, and I was advised that this hotel would probably suit better (which was true). This part of Antalya is not a place I would normally choose to visit - it's about 20km outside the actual city, on a strip of coast that is wall to wall all-inclusive package holiday type resorts with nothing else around - no normal people, shops or life. It obviously appeals to sun-starved northern Europeans - Russians, Dutch, Swedish and Germans.
The hotel is quite opulent in its public areas, and our two bedroom family room very comfortable and well-equipped. The grounds are magnificently manicured, filled with pools, bars and shady spots leading down to the Mediterranean, which is a very enticing temperature for swimming.
The all-inclusive food and drink package sees most of the guests eating in a massive dining room and terrace which serves buffet meals - excellent quality, and tons of variety (some cooked in front of you at out door barbecues) but I found watching the amount of wastage and greed a bit of an appetite suppressant. There is an option of a la carte dining (very limited, and you need to queue up each evening to book for the next day) and we did try the Japanese, which was quite good and a nice change from the huge dining room.
The resort has all the things you might expect - gym, indoor pool, spa, hairdresser, etc etc, which all appeared to be reasonable.
This sort of place is definitely not to my taste, but having said that, the facilities are of a high standard, and finding a space to rest in the shade, recuperate after conferences, read good books, stroll to a nearby bar for some watermelon and a gin fizz is very easy and - dare I say it - enjoyable.
At night, our room throbbed to the nightly entertainment concert of the next door resort - I did wonder when I heard the Hokey Cokey in a mixture of English and Russian! - although our resort was itself quite a quiet place. The resort where the conference was held was also crowded and noisy, so I was grateful for the advice of our travel agent.
If I were ever to return to Antalya, I would probably choose to stay in the town itself, near the historic quarter, but due to the distance from our conference venue, it would not have been practicable.

The hotel is very nice, great decoration, very beautiful pools and garden, very nice room , with good air conditioning.
The food in the main restaurant was very diverse , every evening we had a barbeque or traditional food, pizza and pastry etc.Something for everybody.You could eat on terrace with a beautiful view to the garden and the small lakes with fishes and lot of vegetation.Animation in the evening was excellent and covering all the tastes.One evening we had a foam party on the beach and I can tell you it was very funny !
Not so good parts: service not for 5 stars , staff very friendly , but professionaly not at 5 stars level , cleaning in the room sometimes superficial and booking dinner in one of the a la carte restaurants did not worth at all.First , you can not book simply to the reception, but you have to queue after 9 p.m. and those restaurant were actually a corner from the main restaurant and food had nothing special to worth queuing and further more, in the italian restaurant children under 12 were not allowed , so finally we decided to stick to the main restaurant.For the sunbeds , I had to wake up in the morning at 7 ! Kids animation was in Russian , so not all the kids could enjoy it unfortunately .
All in all, if you pass over the small inconvenients , you are going to have a very pleasant staying , the hotel is beautiful and very green and if you have kids they will love the place for sure ! My son 4 years old was crying all the back way and this year he definetely would like to go in the same place !

Let's keep this simple!

This is my first review on Trip Advisor, but feel it neccessary to comment, so want to keep it as simple as possible!
We book five star hlidays every two years. This was at most three.
I have read some reviews saying the staff were not good. We found them nothing less than excellent. Friendly, even though overworked and as efficient as is possible when serving far too many people at the limited meal times.
The cosmetics of the pool are very nice, although I caught an ear infection within three days. Which the local doctor decided to syringe and I now have a perforated ear drum.
The a'la carte restaurants are only bookable on a ridiculous queuing system beginning at 9.30pm! They are so small that if you are not in the queue in the first six they are full! Although we found out that SOMEHOW the numbers just did not add up. Also you can only (officially) have only ONE meal in each of these restaraunts no matter how long your stay is!
We like to think that we enjoy friendly, happy holidays enjoying passing hello's and some light laughter round the poolside, but, and I can't believe I am mensioning a particular race of people, the Russian majority absolutely forbids any friendliness. We tried and tried to smile and say hello and good morning only to be met by stone faced glares.
I thought I coulf keep this simple, but it turns out I could go on for hours. But I hope you get the point.
Nice hotel; Fiori-ALBANIA

My husband and I, together with our 3 years old daughter stayed in IC Green in early August. We enjoyed the nice hotel, with its pretty nice environment. I loved its greenness with all those palm and banana trees. Sea was perfect, and the food was delicious. BBQ everynight with all kinds of fish, shrimps and meat. There were different a la carte restaurants, but most of them were inside the hotel. I couldn't get why not to be in all the greenness area outside, along the seaside ( ex fish restaurant was set in a corner of the buffet restaurant).
We relaxed and enjoyed the hotel, besides one bad thing that happened to us. We put some money inside the safe box ( as we thought it was SAFE!!!!). Next day we found out that there was stolen 100 Eur out of the wallet inside the safe. SUch a bad thing!!!!! I felt so bad for that.
Another thing I would not reccomend was Lillium center massages and other services. It was terrible. I paid for an aromatherapy massage and I got a simple one with no aromatherapy at all. Or I reserved a aloe vera face mask, and I got some honey product on my face with a horrible creme at the end. Money wasted!!!!!.
So the best thing that this hotel offers would be: nice environment and food.
