This place is definitely not worth visiting! When we inquired about the price beforehand, we were informed that the sunbed fee per person is 200 TL, which would be deducted from our food and drink expenses. We agreed to this arrangement. However, when we went to settle our bill later, they claimed that the sunbed fee does not cover the cost of eating and drinking, even though we never agreed to such terms. When we raised our concerns, they responded with anger and tried to escalate the situation. On the same day, I witnessed several other people having the same argument with the cashier. Additionally, I observed instances of bullying behavior towards other customers. The restroom facilities were extremely dirty. Most of the items listed on the menu were not available, and the food that did arrive was served cold. Authorities with the appropriate jurisdiction should definitely investigate this establishment, considering the numerous complaints they have received.

If you happen to visit the beach with your spouse, there's a chance that an officer might approach you and mention that the area has become quite crowded. They might then escort you to a location that lacks any entertainment or connection. While it's acceptable to pay a higher price, the service quality is definitely lacking.

We went with our girlfriends for some evening entertainment, and there were a total of 4 girls and 2 boys in our group. However, when we arrived at the beach, we found that our side table inside was occupied by unfamiliar men both in front and behind us. Even though we had already mentioned the fee, they persistently asked us to pay to avoid any unpleasantness. If you're looking for a fun night out, I would suggest going to the train station just 50 meters away instead. It would save you both time and money, as this beach experience was disappointing.
