The Dome's design leans into Seljuk-era influence, and you can see it in the arches, the proportions and the sense of grandeur in the public spaces. It feels more characterful than the standard big resort look, which is a nice touch when you're spending a few days on site.
Accommodation is spread across 158 rooms, 28 private villas and 43 Lagoon Suites. All come with marble bathrooms and the usual high-end essentials including air-conditioning, wooden floors, flat-screen TVs and a private balcony or terrace. If you're travelling as a fourball or a larger group, the villas and Lagoon Suites are worth a look for the extra space and privacy, especially if you want somewhere to unwind without everyone ending up in the lobby.
Facility-wise, you've got a long list done properly: outdoor pools, jacuzzis, saunas and a well-equipped gym, plus direct access to the beach. The headline, though, is the spa and thalasso therapy centre, which is one of the biggest in Turkey. Whether you're a quick steam room and go type or you like to book treatments to keep the back and shoulders behaving, it's a genuine selling point for a golf week.
Non-golf time is covered too. There are tennis courts, water sports on the beach and a kids' club that makes this a realistic option for family golf trips, not just lads' tours.
Food and drink is another strong area. There are four restaurants, with Selçuk the standout for regional Turkish flavours done with a bit of pride rather than generic buffet fare. You've also got six bars, including Putters Bar, which naturally becomes the post-round meeting point for comparing scorecards and sorting tomorrow's tee times. It's the kind of place where you can replay the day's golf over a drink without feeling like you're in a generic hotel bar.
The Dome suits golfers who want their hotel to be part of the experience, not just somewhere to sleep between rounds. The service is attentive, the facilities are genuinely luxurious, and the location gives you quick access to Belek's best courses while keeping you slightly removed from the busier parts of town.
