Arrived back on Saturday after week in Altinkum. First time there and although had a good time probably wouldn't go back - much prefer Marmaris.
Apartment in good location just off Dolphin Sq.
Most days spent wandering around town in morning & afternoons on beach. Had boat trip on Thursday which was brilliant for £13 all incl on Siesta boat. Also went on dolmus to Mavisehir to evening market and had meal watching sun set.
Ate at Iqbals on the front a couple of times which was really nice - Efes only 3Tl, also went Big Bens. Most restaurants seemed very quiet. Usually finished off with drink at Willie & Lees
Got a bit fed up with the "come into my restaurant/shop/bar" etc. Most would accept a polite no thank you but one or two would then shout something in Turkish at us - maybe it was worse because it was quiet.
Weather was brilliant & each day just seemed to get hotter & hotter.
So even though did enjoy it will look for somewhere else for next year
Many Thanks
Pint Efes or Tuborg varied from 3Tl to 5Tl. Soft drinks around 3Tl. Cocktails around 10 - 12Tl but cheapest we saw was at Chinese next to Big Ben at 8Tl. Spirits/Mixer 9Tl
Only had lunch once - Cheese toasti & chips was about 7.5Tl. Pizza marg - from about 9Tl.
You could get 3 course set meals for around 15 - 25Tl. Steaks/Lamb etc were around 25Tl, Chicken a bit cheaper. Kids meals about 7.5Tl
Most restaurants also served complimentary Nan bread before the meal.
Ice cream from the stalls on beach front were 4Tl but you could get Magnum lollies at Tantas for 2.5Tl. 2Lt bottle of Fanta Orange again at Tantas wa 2Tl.
Dont know if you'll be going on beach but it was 12Tl for 2 beds & brolly
Have a good time

Forget to say, we was getting 2.35Tl to the pound at jewellers around Dolphin Sq.
Thanks Again
