Hi Emma

No problem will give you the low down on the hotel when I am there.
As to the price eldest has to go as an adult and got youngest free child.
Seems a bit costly for us but hey ho.
Where are you flying from?

Next year is First Choice first year at this hotel and apparently they have
got 70% of the UK allocation for this hotel, how many rooms that is do not know.

Went to Holiday Village Viva this year in Majorca 4* Butlins!!!
Only been back a week and needed to look forward to a little more from
a holiday (snob).

We are flying from Gatwick, our daughter is only 2 so we are taking advantage of the 'out of season' prices!

We are also off to a holiday village this year, Pegasus Tropical Turkey, think that will be butlins in the sun too reading the reviews!

We went to The Cornelia Hotel in Belek last year, that was very nice , similar to the Delphin, though us Brits are in the minority in that part of Turkey, lots of rude Russians.
We have also found the Delphin in Thomas cook Turkey brochure, and have had a look at the hotels website, there are lots more photo's and it does look nice. Roll on 2007!!

Hi Emma

Guess we will just have to put up with the Soviet Bloc ignorance!!

Do you know if there are any casinos in any of the other hotels or nearby?
I have heard they are going to try and make the Lara area one of the most cosmopolitan areas in Turkey.

We too have booked this hotel, roll on 8th june 2007 got a good price to £1448 for 2 of us, there are a couple of review on tripadvisor, but still searching for more information. Delphine palace as got its own web site, it looks fantastic, got to elite collection tho because there is a Delphin resort to owned by the same company, but delphin resort looks a smaller hotel.
I will be putting my review up as soon as we get back.
Went to can garden resort in side this year, new hotel, it was good but food could have been a touch better, but we didnt starve.

Hi Julie

Must agree cannot wait to go. Checked out the reports on trip advisor and
they do look favourable. Guess we must be the first wave of brits to hit this hotel, lets hope they mantain the same standard for us as they have for all the other europeans.
Looking forward to your report

Hi,

Not sure about Casino's, i think there is a small shopping complex outside the hotel, and Antalya is good for souveniers, i am hoping we can nose around the other hotels, think the Delphin is near to the Concorde which looks fab!
We are going to the Titanic on May 11th for 1 week so will be able to check out the area then!

Hi emmasholiday.I live 4Km. down the road from Delphin Palace.I do not think that you will be allowed into the other Hotels ( and there are many ) as they are all inclusive and all have Security Guys and Girls on the Gate.Yes, there is one small Shopping Bazaar but nothing else.Most of the Hotels along that strip are of good quality with Decent Food so I do not think you will be disappointed.Anybody bringing Kids should put loads on Creme on them as the sun is very deceptive here.Enjoy your Holiday in Lara Antalya.One last point your transfer on the Coach will only take around twenty minutes.

You also have the miracle resort hotel on the same strip,directly next door to Titanic ,mostly russian. israeli,belgian and danish, a beautiful hotel. I believe we where the only and possibly first Irish family there because the staff where always surprised when we told them we where Irish. We are thinking about going to Delphin Palace next year as a flight and hotel seperate package but the prices for hotel are not available yet. Stephen

Looks like nobody has been to this hotel yet from holiday-truth, hope it is
going to be as good as their web looks. I have heard they are building a
new shopping complex nearby and should be open for 2007.

No reports from this year on HT and only 3 on tripadvisor (all favourable)

Cannot wait for July 2007, been back 2 weeks from this years holiday and
all it is is a distant memory.

I'm going to the delphin palace deluxe on 13th july 2007. for 2 weeks booked with first choice at a cost of £2102 for 2 adults and a 7 year old. :D I think this is a real bargain. :D If anyone is interested I got on first choice site priced it up got free child place printed it out & took it to travelcare and they matched the price I think all good travel agents do this now. or you can always book it on the first choice web site! I just hope the hotel is as good as it looks on the internet can't find many reviews that the only problem. & travel agents don't no anything at all about it!

Oh well I'll just have to keep lookin!

Roll on july can't wait!!!! :D
