Having been to the Antalya Area for the last couple of years and love it I couldn't beleive the prices for 2011

The Royal Wings and a few others in the Lara Beach area have lowered their child age to 10 years from 12 years meaning no free child place for my wee girl who will be 11 when we go next year!!

We've done really well in the last few years with free child places but I was struggling to get anything at one of the real quality hotels for a good price for 2011 but after much haggling with Direct Holidays I've managed to get us 2 weeks at the Titanic Beach Resort with sea view room and day flights from Glasgow for under £3k and I'm delighted

Royal Dragon on the 4th July 2010 and then Titanic on the 3rd July 2011 - Turkey we love u!!!!

zoso - hope you like Royal Dragon. We are going 31st July, so will miss you. A lot dearer to go in the summer holidays from the prices you mention Let me know what you think when you come back.

We booked last weekend for next summer - the new Paloma Pasha in Izmir - fancied a different area and it was coming in a lot cheaper than the others I had my eye on. It has now been taken off-sale by DH and TC - too much interest I think !! Several people I know have booked, and it isn't even open yet.

Bugalug - I will deffo let you know what it's like when we get back but having been to the Royal Wings last year I think we know what to expect and for once I've not got that "I hope we've picked a good un" feeling.

The dates we are going are during the Scottish School holidays and DH, TC, FC etc all wanted at least £4,200 for2 weeks at the RW or RD

I'm happy with the price we got the Titanic for and I'm looking forward to a different hotel again, let me know how you find the hotel you're going to next year as we always like to try different hotels and a different part of Turkey would also be great!

You off to anywhere this year?

Yes Royal Dragon 31st July for 2 weeks and Royal Wings in October half-term!
I've also booked Voyage Belek for a winter break next Feb, then I have Barut Lara at Easter, as well as Paloma Pasha in the summer.
I consider myself very lucky, but I have to pay for them all yet!!!!! Starting to stress a bit now!
