We stayed at the Calista Luxury Resort, which I can honestly say is the best place we have ever stayed. The service was exceptional, the villa was beautiful and the all inclusive food was nothing short of Michelin star standard.
Easy to understand why President Obama chose this resort when attending a G20 meeting, a fact the hotel unashamedly likes to make one aware of.
It may be worth you looking at Belek as an option, in addition to those already on your shortlist.
I disagree that Turkey should be avoided, I have always found it a very hospitable, safe country, with food to die for and the exchange rates mean it gives you a great bang for your buck.
