👳🏾♂️ Salem's Honest Verdict
Rixos Premium Magawish delivers on the Turkish ultra all-inclusive promise. The sheer scale is impressive: 30 pools, 1km beach, 7 specialty restaurants - it's a small city! The Brazilian and Asian restaurants are genuinely excellent.
Be aware of the experience: This is a big resort with Russian-speaking majority and lively atmosphere. If you want quiet boutique luxury, look elsewhere. If you want massive facilities, entertainment, and value - this delivers.
Honest issues: Main buffet is repetitive (stick to à la carte!). Booking specialty restaurants requires strategy - some guests book at midnight. Cocktails at bars can be weak. Spa/stables expensive add-ons.
Best for: Families wanting everything included, activity-seekers, guests who love variety, Russian-speakers, those who prefer big resorts.
