With good-sized pools and a gym and plenty of outdoor sporting facilities, the Green Nature Resort has a lot of options for active pursuits, but fewer for eating and drinking.

There are two large pools surrounded by sunbeds, a waterslide pool with four slides, and a small kids’ pool between the Resort and Club complexes. Entertainment and activities are provided by the resort's animation team, with offerings such as water polo, aerobics, and darts, and there are small interactive shows poolside during the daytime. There are also outdoor courts for tennis, basketball, volleyball, and mini-football, though there’s no tree cover to shield them from the summer sun.

A small amphitheater next to the pools is where the roster of evening entertainment takes place, mostly family-friendly shows such as circus nights, dance parties, karaoke, Turkish nights, and performances based on the musical Grease. Kids are catered to at a colorful kids’ club with an indoor ball pit and a fairly large (if unshaded) playground. The kids’ club is only open during the day; babysitting is available at night for an extra charge.

The ground-floor Green Spa, decorated with a hodgepodge of bamboo, stones, fish tanks, and Asian figurines, features four Turkish baths (one large and three small private ones), a dry sauna, steam room, whirlpool, vitamin bar (extra charge), and six massage rooms (extra charge). The good-sized gym has a variety of cardio and weight machines and gets some natural light, as does the indoor pool area.

All-inclusive meals are served in the ground-floor Green Restaurant, which has a cafeteria feel, kitschy animal sculptures on the food stations, and an uninspired buffet of hot and cold dishes at each meal, with scant cooked-to-order options. The main seating area is outside under a retractable roof, though there are some indoor tables as well. There's also a snack restaurant by the Club buildings that dishes out a mid-afternoon buffet of burgers, pizza, and the like. A quiet garden bar, two lobby bars, and a lively amphitheater bar serve up the same low-quality alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. A terrace bar/restaurant overlooking the pool area offers alternative fare -- including a Western breakfast, nachos, and steaks, as well as premium drinks -- throughout the day for an extra charge.

A daily free shuttle (more frequent in peak season) takes guests to a beach in the neighboring resort of İçmeler, and popular diving tours can be arranged for an extra charge. There's a doctor available on-site, and other amenities to round out the Green Nature Resort’s features include a minimart, photo studio, tattoo parlor, hairdresser, handbag shop, and a souvenir shop. Wi-Fi is free in the hotel's public areas.
