What alcohol is available at all-inclusive hotels in Belek Turkey — is there decent whisky and imported spirits?

Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 4 days ago

TL;DR

Most all-inclusive hotels in Belek stock standard imported spirits: Ballantine's, Chivas, Jameson, Captain Morgan, and Baileys. Cocktails tend to be overly sweet, so ordering whisky and mixer separately is recommended.

What the community said

According to one report, all-inclusive covers local alcohol and only 2–3 complimentary cocktails; imported spirits are charged separately.

Three beer options were reported at the hotel, including Bud and Efes; the third brand was not specified.

At some hotels prosecco was unavailable, but there is budget Turkish wine — dry white is decent chilled, red is weak, rosé is so-so. Cocktails are generally mediocre, but the poolside mojito is good. The tastiest cocktails (unnamed, just 'sweet' or 'sour', made with natural juice) are served near the mini-club during evening live music and dance shows.

All the alcohol at the hotel is locally produced, nothing premium was found. Options tried included several wines, vodka with soda, local martini mixed with juice (made only in one specific bar), and some non-alcoholic cocktails.

Besides whisky and beer, some bars offer Martini-style vermouth in white, red, and dry versions. A recommended serve is vermouth with tonic; reports also say cocktails are usually made better in the lobby bar than at the beach bars, where quality tends to be weaker.

Among other alcohol options, gin and tonic is reported to be available; one tip is to order a double gin with Sprite instead of tonic.

The selection is roughly the same across hotels in the area. Spotted imports include Prosecco, Red Label and Jameson whisky, Captain Morgan rum, plus beer and cocktails. Spirits are available but the range is limited.

Hotel cocktails are often disappointing and overly sweet. The best approach for a whisky and Coke is to ask for Ballantine's separately and cola separately — the result is much better than ordering a pre-mixed drink.

The whisky and liqueurs served at hotels are genuine products — Chivas, Ballantine's, and Baileys have been confirmed as authentic, not counterfeit.
