Hi cboumbe

We returned just 2 weeks ago from the orka and just one word sums up the hotel FANTASTIC the staff are amazing thay can't do enough for you, a really great bunch of guys and girls Hagi Deniz Billy Sayet Haken bar staff and Gulsen on reception amazing they can't do enough for you.
We stayed in the villa's they where spotless and very large.
The hotel was busy when we went but never felt over crowded, the complex itself was very big and spaced out.
The resturant was very good a long with the entertainment, mainly done by the bar staff, if you happen to see the show with the bar guys performing different scripts the black and red dress is mine!!!!!!!!!!!
Even if Hisaronuo is quiet (it's a 2 minute dolmus ride from outside the hotel and costs 1000000 each) i'm sure the guys will entertain you.

You will have a fantastic holiday there we have booked again for next year.
This was our first time to Turkey and loved every minute of it
Very jealous of you!!!!
If you would like anymore info let me know as i could go on forever about the Orka

Cheers
Mandy

thanx alot for your reply, it has reassured a bit more now, ive not read any bad reviews about this hotel and am really looking forward to going.
Did you venture out and about alot, is hisaronu in walking distance?.
did you go to any of the beaches nearby, if so which one is best, im a pool person but my lady likes to lie on the beach :roll: . I think we are staying in the hotel so any info on that would be a plus

thanx alot

Hi sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you but had problems with the computer.

We never walked into the village as the dolmus stopped right out side the hotel, just pop out a hand and they stop, if they are full they will flash their lights at you and another will be along in a few mins, theres also a taxi rank 30 seconds to your left as you come out of the hotel.

Beaches we only managed Oul deniz as we prefer pools, it was lovely but very hot.

The hotel it self is very close to the main bar so not too many steps.

Treat your wife to a Turkish bath and massage whilst you are there it was fantastic it cost £29 but was well worth it, 3 hours of pampering heaven!

We are back there for a week in May and two weeks in August, we have never gone back to the same place twice, Says it all really.

If you would like me to send any photos to you direct let me know.

Have a great time

Aparently the weather is still hot during the day so slap on the sunscreen.

Enjoy

hi there mandy,

I would love to tell you that the holiday was a complete success but im afraid i can't because we never actually made it out of the uk. :( . the day before we left it was my wifes turn to be taken into hospital after collapsing at work. so to cut a really long story short. holiday was cancelled, we got a refund from insurers and hopefully try again next year, sorry i have no good stories for you, but I expect it would have been great.
thanx,chris

stayed at orka last september in the villas,hope your hotel room is not facing the bar area as it gets very loud until all hours. The Orka is very clean and well maintained swimming pools are brilliant one has a big slide .it is about a 20 minute walk into hisaronu but there is a taxi rank right outside hotel and the dolmus stops outside.all in all a nice hotel

Hi

Myself and my sis stayed in a villa last September, no complaints, fab holiday. Just email before you go and ask for a peaceful villa away from the bar area, we did and sure enough we got one no problems. I have to say the whole place is beautiful, the gardens are wonderful and the staff are first class. The villas are perfect, nicely set out and plenty of room. We had a peep at the hotel rooms, they are really modern and clean. All in all one of the best holidays I have had in Turkey.
