How to guarantee a sea-view or family room when booking a package hotel in Antalya?

TL;DR
Room preferences submitted through a tour operator (e.g. Anex) often don't reach the hotel — front desk may assign a smaller or non-sea-view room even if your voucher states otherwise.

At the Simena building you can pay extra to upgrade from a Deluxe Standard Sea View room to a large 2-bedroom family room — best to confirm the upgrade fee directly with reception on arrival.

Even if your voucher says 'sea view,' hotels won't put a couple in a family-type room — these rooms are reserved specifically for families (3+ guests), and staff enforce this strictly at check-in.

Room requests (bungalow type, room numbers starting with 500) submitted by a travel agent through Anex often never reach the hotel — at check-in you may first be offered a smaller 1.5-room unit on the ground floor facing the road instead of the full 2-room Family suite.
