Welcome To Our Turkey
To start with you need to know that Turkey is a big place and
is well over three times the size of the entire United
Kingdom, yet every one of Turkey’s most popular holiday
resorts lie in a 300 mile arc stretching from Izmir on the
Aegean west coast to Antalya on the Mediterranean.
Here you will find fabulous towns like Bodrum, Marmaris and
Kalkan. Once small fishing villages, they have spread out from
their original harbours to become sophisticated holiday
resorts with hotels ranging from luxury five star
establishments with every conceivable facility, to
delightfully simple 1 and 2 star properties run by the owners
and providing amazing value for money along with a very warm
welcome.
Where To Stay
Each of the region’s resort areas has its own character.
Bodrum’s buildings are no more that two
storeys high, all of them whitewashed and spotted with
bougainvillaea and olive trees, whilst lively Marmaris
lies along a huge bay enclosed by pine covered mountains.
Olu Deniz (translated as ‘Dead Sea’), is a
beautiful lagoon edged with soft sandy beaches that’s a
favourite picnic spot for tourists and locals alike, backed by
pine covered hills where you will find the village resorts of
Hisaronu and Ovacik.
Different again is Icmeler a modern resort
that has been developed to a grand design with wonderful
public gardens and open spaces.
And then there is romantic Dalyan, a fishing
village by a river, a few minutes by water taxi from a
stunning beach where blue waves play against golden sands.
