Tripplo’s hotel summary
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 21 October 2026 · How we review hotels
This property suits guests who want a beachfront holiday surrounded by lush tropical gardens. The resort sits directly on the public beach promenade and has four pools – a large outdoor pool, a heated indoor pool and two children's pools – plus rooms with floor-to-ceiling coastal views. Guests can sample regional Turkish cuisine across three restaurants, including an à la carte rooftop restaurant. Drawbacks include a standardised brand-resort atmosphere and high occupancy during the peak summer season.
Guests score it 8.9 out of 10 — the average across the 5 hotels we list in Marmaris is 9.0.
- Situated directly on the coast, the hotel opens straight onto a public stretch of beach along the Marmaris promenade, with calm Mediterranean water for early-morning swims.
- Guestrooms are designed to maximize natural light, featuring expansive glazing that frames unobstructed vistas of either the sea or the lush garden grounds.
- With its extensive capacity, the main pool area and beachfront can become crowded during mid-summer. Guests seeking quietude may prefer visiting the spa or planning excursions during midday peak hours.
- As part of a major holiday brand, the property prioritizes consistent, streamlined service over highly individualized boutique charm, which might feel less personal to some seasoned travelers.

Rooms & which one to pick
Our tip: Couples should book the Double Room with Sea View for a balcony facing the sea; the Double Room with Partial Sea View is the in-between choice, and the Land View rooms face inland. For more space, the Deluxe Suite with Sea View sits on a high floor on the sea side and has a whirlpool bath, while the Suite with Land View has a separate living room, useful for families who need a second space.

Reviews from Google“We have just spent 3 nights at the hotel. Location is central, rooms are spacious and clean, and cleaned every day. Food is exceptional, with options for all and entertainment was very good. We loved the variety of healthy and sweet options. The only critique would be the young staff working outside bar area, they are not friendly and often ignore you when you would like to place a request. It almost feels like they don’t want to be there. We also struggled to communicate with individuals at reception. Other than these small details, we recommend this hotel for teens and adults.”
“Our stay at TUI BLUE Grand Azur was wonderful from beginning to end! We truly enjoyed every moment of our holiday. The food was delicious, the staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, and the overall atmosphere was excellent. We arrived early in the morning, and the hotel staff kindly showed us places where we could relax and lie down after our journey. We were also able to check in a little earlier than 2:00 PM, which was very much appreciated. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. We also really enjoyed the à la carte restaurant — the food was delicious and the service was excellent. A very special thank you goes to Muhammed, who took care of us throughout our entire stay. He is such a kind, friendly, attentive and helpful person, always smiling and ready to assist. His warm attitude made our holiday even more enjoyable! We had a truly wonderful experience and would definitely come back again. Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so special! ❤️”
“I've been coming to TUI Blue Grand Azur for as long as I can remember. I first came here as a little kid, and now I'm 18 and I still love coming back every year. I've stayed in other hotels, but this one is definitely my favourite. The location is amazing with a private beach, a big swimming pool, and really nice gardens. It's a great place to relax and enjoy your holiday. The food is honestly one of the best parts. There's so much choice, everything tastes fresh, and the desserts are amazing. The à la carte restaurant is also really good, with great food and a beautiful view. The rooms are always clean, spacious, and comfortable. The whole hotel feels modern and well looked after. The staff are what make this place special. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. They really make you feel at home. This hotel has been part of my childhood, and even now I still get excited to come back. Every holiday here has been amazing, and I honestly can't recommend TUI Blue Grand Azur enough. It's a place I'll always enjoy coming back to.”
“Amazing 5 stars hotel. Staff are great including receptionists and waiters. Everyone is nice. BIRSEN , the manager was very kind and thoughtful , she helped us out through everything. Food is excellent with a wide variety in both main restaurant and snack. Pools are amazing and I personally enjoyed the jacuzzi so much. We also tried the spa and everything was beyond expectations. I really recommend this all inclusive hotel, definitely the best in marmaris.”
“We had a wonderful stay here. The service was excellent, and the food was amazing throughout our holiday. Our suite was spotless every day, and Enes did a fantastic job keeping everything clean and tidy. In the restaurants, the staff were always friendly, professional, and attentive. A special mention to Ismail, who was incredibly attentive and hardworking—we didn’t get the chance to say goodbye before we left, but we wanted to thank him for helping make our stay so enjoyable. The hotel grounds are beautifully maintained, and the overall standard of service is very high. The location is great too, with a lovely seaside walk that takes you into either Marmaris or İçmeler. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. Highly recommended!”
