Introducing our newest Home Resort in beautiful Antalya, Turkey!
The Doğan Hotel
The Doğan Hotel is a lovely historical building that has been restored in traditional Turkish style. It is situated in the heart of Kaleiçi, the small historic section of the old city of Antalya, filled with meandering cobble-stoned streets, massive stone walls and picturesque old houses. Step through the entrance of the hotel and you are immediately swept away by the charming ambience of timbered ceilings, colourful Anatolian rugs, and the warm welcome of the staff. The 41 rooms of the hotel surround a lovely garden and dining terrace filled with orange trees and flowering shrubs where guests can relax over splendid traditional Turkish meals. The sunlit pool with its terrace for sunbathing, and a small, relaxing waterfall in the garden, provide restful areas in which to enjoy this delightful hotel. The Doğan is within walking distance of Antalya city centre, the beach, city museum and yacht marina. Hadrian’s Gate, constructed in the 2nd century by the Romans in honour of the Emperor Hadrian, is also nearby. Take your time exploring the neighbourhood on foot to truly get a sense of old Antalya and its many charms.

Club Paihia – New Zealand and Club Balai Isabel – Philippines
Club Olympus – Tenerife Island, Spain
Our trip to Paihia, the Bay of Islands in New Zealand, was one of the most unforgettable trips we ever had. We chose to stay at Club Paihia, a resort set on a hillside surrounded by native flowers and nature. Our room was spacious and everything was well in order before our arrival. The staff was also very professional and efficient, which made our trip even more memorable.
It was truly a fantastic and memorable trip for my guests and I at Club Olympus in Garden City. The hotel staff was excellent and assisted us with all our requests. We especially enjoyed our time at the nearby Aqua Park and Loro Park where they had the most amazing water sports facilities and water theme park. Most of our time was spent swimming, clubbing and indulging in scrumptious Mexican food.
The town centre is within walking distance from Club Paihia where you can find great selections of fine art pieces, wines and souvenirs. The locals were very friendly and we truly enjoyed the beauty of New Zealand and the warm hospitality of the Kiwis.
We would like to thank QVI Club for helping us put together this dream holiday. This was made possible by Ms Nasim who was always available to assist us whenever we needed help. We had problems deciding on our preferred dates and destinations and even had last minute changes in check-in names. However, Ms Nasim was very patient and professional throughout all these. She even called us several times to follow up on our holiday plans despite the time difference between London and Singapore.
Our other trip to Club Balai Isabel, Philippines was equally incredible. The resort we stayed in was right on the shores of Taal Lake, overlooking the volcano. The trees and lush vegetation around our resort made the environment relaxing. The restaurant staff at the resort also patiently served our guests who were there to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Although this was our first visit to the resort, it certainly will not be the last! Special thanks to QVI Club’s Roxane Cabaluna for her advice and recommendations in making our holidays extremely enjoyable! Efren Miranda - Canada
Most importantly, this has made me trust QVI Club completely. Even my friends are interested in becoming QVI Club members after seeing the beautiful pictures and videos taken during my trip. I hope my photos and testimonial will convince you to be a member too! Nader Sharafi - UK
Xclusive Hotel – Dubai We had so many problems getting visas and everything before our trip to the Dubai Xclusive Hotel, we had no idea what to expect when we actually got there. We arrived at 2am and were graciously welcomed by the friendly staff and shown to our room, which was ready and waiting for us. We ended up having such a great time, with many positive emotions and impressions of our trip, we even celebrated our daughter’s birthday while in Dubai. Daria from the customer experience team was such a great help and made everything so easy for us. It was especially nice to be able to talk to someone all the way in Singapore and have them speak and write to us in our own language. Thank you QVI Club! Ms Janiya Joldassova - Russia
TESTIMONIALS
Sunset Beach Club - Fethiye, Turkey
Patong Tower Condominium – Phuket, Thailand
I want to thank the QVI Club customer experience team, and especially Mehmet Aktop, for giving us such brilliant service regardless of time and conditions. It was our first vacation with QVI Club and when we first landed in Fethiye, Turkey, we were struck dumb with amazement because of its natural beauty and weather. It was great to experience the crystal clear view of sea life, and the gorgeous vista of many islands just off the coast. Moreover, we had a chance to tour the neighbouring 12 Islands. This was also an unbelievable experience for us.
I was delighted to be able to book my stay in Patong Tower Condominium for the third time! The resort is very unique as it is the highest building in the area.
When we checked into the Sunset Beach Club, we totally understood what a true vacation really means. We had such freedom of choice! It was really amazing to have a chance to decide what to eat, where to eat, and especially to eat food that has been prepared just for you, and not for 1000 or 2000 people.
Remember to spend time on the white sandy beach, engaging in the various water sports activities such as parasailing, jet skiing and ball games on the beach.
Finally, I want to mention that the resort is located in such a place that you can enjoy some of the best sunsets anywhere around the globe. It really deserves its Sunset Beach Club name. V-Elite Leader Dovletgeldi Atamuradov
There are two terraces in each unit, one overlooking the beach, the other to the forest. The beach is a mere 100 metres away and the shopping mall just a few minutes’ walk away. Don’t forget to pop by Banglad Street where the clubbing scene is! Everything you need is conveniently located near Patong Tower.
Thank you QVI for the great service and especially Mr Aie who has become my best friend in the last three years since I became a member. Special thanks to Ms Nasim for her help in making my vacations memorable! Mohammad Heidrai - Iran

Clifftop Club, Auli, India Cliff Top Club at Auli is a high altitude adventure resort in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand. It is located at an altitude of over 10,000 feet in India’s most scenic location amid the snow clad Himalayas. The resort is a paradise in winter for skiing and sledding enthusiasts. In summer, hikers and trekkers will find numerous marked walks and mountain bike trails. The famous high altitude Gorson Reserve forest (part of the Nanda Devi National Park) provides a splendid backdrop to the resort. It is not possible to reach Auli from Delhi in a day, hence we recommend an overnight stay either at Haridwar, Srinagar or Rudraprayag to break journey. The ropeway from Joshimath operates at fixed timings, from 0900hrs to 1700hrs, hence guests are requested to time their journey so as to arrive at Joshimath by 1630hrs if taking the ropeway to the resort to avoid being stranded in Joshimath overnight.

“Welcome” in Oz
A thousand miles from anywhere, Australia really is a world apart. Although prospectors rushed here in the 18th and 19th century, convinced that the Australian frontier hid as much gold as the Wild West of America, it is only relatively recently that the world has appreciated Australia’s true resources of its great natural beauty. It is a vast expanse of golden coasts, snowy mountains, sandy deserts, blue lakes and clear seas. Aussies have not only embraced but have defined the modern beach lifestyle the world over. The entire coast of the country is amply blessed with beautiful beaches. From the built-up beaches of Surfer’s Paradise and the Gold Coast to abandoned stretches of the Southwest of the country around Perth, there’s more coastal sands than you could hope to discover in a lifetime. The Aboriginal culture of Australia is a unique phenomenon, a centuries old theology that perfectly fits in with Australia’s diversity and is perhaps the only thing that manages to encompass one of the world’s most fascinating destinations.

“Welcome” in Malayalam
India, the very name is synonymous with mystery and allure. This vast territory has fascinated people from all over the world for centuries with its rich, varied culture and millennia-old history. Most visitors to India visit the “Golden Triangle” consisting of the ancient cities of Delhi, Jaipur and Agra. It is home to one of the world’s poignant monuments - the Taj Mahal. However, venture away from the main attractions and you’ll find another India opening up before you. Elsewhere in the country you can find some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. The coastal town of Goa in the Southwest, with its palm-fringed sands is understandably famous and offers a European ambience harking back to the days of Portuguese colonialism. For solitude and displays of aching beauty, the National Parks found all over the subcontinent offer visitors countless charms. Magnificent animals roam freely; the Indian elephant, great Rhino and the rare and majestic Bengal tiger are just a few.

“Welcome” in Spanish
Spain is a country of passion, excitement and vibrancy unlike any other in Western Europe. “Joie de vivre” may be a French phrase, but it could have been written about Spain - for the Spanish certainly know how to live. Its cosmopolitan cities boast some of the best museums and galleries in Europe. If you want to take your artistic experience to another level, visit the birthplace of Picasso himself in the city of Malaga, an exuberant metropolitan set against the blue Mediterranean. When the cultural attractions close for the night, the bars and restaurants open - and no one parties like the Spanish. If you have the stamina, you can eat, drink and make merry until dawn. South of Gibraltar, the Canary Islands are popular among sun worshippers. Warm all year round, these volcanic islands offer nightlife, beaches and idyllic countryside in equal measure.
Whatever you do in Spain, remember to enjoy it - and, rest assured, the Spanish will be enjoying it with you. Currency: Euro (EUR). EUR1 = 100 cents Notes: EUR 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 Coins: EUR 1, 2 and 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cents

“Welcome” in Thai
Thailand offers an unbeatable combination of Eastern exoticism and Western modernism that brings ten million people a year to the country’s gorgeous beaches and magical countryside. The Thai people are renowned for being friendly and hospitable, in spite of the massive influx of foreign visitors over the last few years. Billed as the “Land of Smiles”, Thailand has an extraordinary diversity of flavours and sights to experience. A lot of people are pleasantly surprised at how modern the country is, with its up-todate facilities. Nowhere is this more evident than in the vibrant capital Bangkok, where a burgeoning 21st century city is growing around centuries-old relics and icons. Thailand is celebrated for its outstanding beaches from the world-famous full-moon parties of Koh Phang-Nga near Koh Samui to the luxury of Phuket’s beach resorts.

“Welcome” in Turkish
Turkey is a country of great contrasts. Similar in many respects to other Mediterranean countries, its unique history and position, connecting Europe with Asia and the Middle East, makes it special. While 99% of the population is Muslim, the country is far more urban and western looking than most first time visitors realise and you’ll find the trappings of Euro-culture side-by-side with Islamic relics and monuments. Turkey’s Aegean coast is its most visited region. Development around some of the more famous beach resorts has been overdone but there are still plenty of quiet spots, not to mention some of the most extensive and best preserved Roman and Greek ruins anywhere. The ruins at Ephesus are high on the itinerary, one of more than thirty major ruins on the coast.
