Well I have been to Hisaronu 4 times now, the last time to get married in May 2007.
We thought we'd give Turkey a miss this year as we were a bit Turkeyed out, so we went to the Dominican Republic in March. Whilst it was nice enough, it was a bit disappointing. You couldn't go off the resort as it was too dangerous. It was double the price of Turkey and twice the travelling time. We went all inclusive for the first time and really didn't like it - it was so restrictive and we are used to going to lots of different restaurants on holiday and trying different foods.
So, I have booked for us to go back to Hisaronu in September (I've not told my husband either.. shhh... I used a bonus he doesn't know about... he's got a week booked off work and I've booked for us to go then so plan to pack in secret and get him to Gatwick and only tell him then.)
I am SO SO excited about going back! Lots of lovely restaurants and Efes and the lovely Turkish people.
I'm sure we will go to other countries in the future, but we kept getting drawn back to Turkey. Will anywhere ever live up to it?!
I went to Turkey (Ovacik) for the first time last May, I have to say I wasn't keen but I don't really consider going anywhere else now! I'm off back to Ovacik on Wednesday!
Must admit I was non too keen the first time but have been back every year for the last ten.Something magical that seems to draw us all back.We even bought our own place in Fethiye and would not be anywhere else.Roll on July 18th,three weeks of pure heaven.
Although I went to DR back in 1994 and we went out of the complex. It was with staff from the hotel though, we went to some clubs and stuff, saw the real DR. Know what you mean though - we were in Playa Dorada which is a community of hotels and you really only went out of there (even though there are a few bars/restaurants outside of hotels) if you went on a trip.
We 1st went to Hisaronu 3 years ago,after my dad died and he wanted his ashes scattering of Babadad mountain!!!They had been going for 15 years+.My Husband really didn't want to go, didn't fancy turkey or the turks at all.We are going back in august .This will be our 7th time in 3 years.Even staying in the same hotel and he goes playing football with the staff at 1.00am, in football kits that he bought here for the hotel.
should have had hindsight i could be very rich now still we are happy
I have been all over the world and travelled lots. Hisaronu and New York are the only places I keep returning to!
we have been back each year since then. we did las vegas for my 40th and I kept wishing we had gone to turkey instead. Husband is wanting to have a break from turkey next year, so I shall book a week and go on my own
I love the place its "food for the soul"
hugs la x
