Scottishmum,

Anything is possible! It's a fair drive from Dalaman to Antalya though, a few hours. I wouldn't have thought many will do it (if any). It might need to be a private taxi but I can't see it being cheap. What about the other resorts in the Dalaman area? They are far more accessable and not like Marmaris.

scottishmum- it's over a 100 miles, so will cost a fortune. Have you looked at the holiday village in Sangermie?, Run by Thomsons, my son and his family went there, they thought it was excellent, especially for the kids. Also Club Letoonia in Fethiye, we went a couple of years ago, it was really nice, AI, set on it's own peninsular, easy to get to Hisonaru and Olu Deniz, really recommend it. Lykia World is reported to be excellent for families. Loads of choice from Dalaman airport - you don't need to stick to Marmaris.

Hi all,

thanks for the replies. Darren the prob is we want an all inclusive and there's a big group of us. Criteria is it must have slides etc. Can't find anything really affordable in the Olu/Fethiye/Hisaronu area. Bit scunnered with Marmaris and Icmeler tbh.

Denny thanks for the suggestions, we've actually been to the hv twice and would happily go back again. Unfortunately though we've already booked our flights and it can't be booked outwith a first choice package. I thought I'd cracked it seeing it listed somewhere as "Iberostar Tropical" but it doesn't really exist as that anymore and always comes up unavailable. I'm getting sick looking now. Bored bored bored. lol

its a 4 to 5 hour drive from dalaman and would cost a fair packet cost from dalaman cars is around 400 gbp return cheaper to get an internal flight or holday around the dalaman area

If there is a lot of you going, could you perhaps hire a car or mini-van and drive yourselves down to the Antalya region ?

Not done it myself or anything, just kind of thinking out loud.

it is a very easy drive and the roads are good

OMG 4 to 5 hour drive! No def not fancying that I thought it was maybe only 2 hours.

Have decided to try and look for decent priced nice AI near Marmaris, have come up with the Green Nature Resort that looks ok, so just waiting on the other parties letting me know what they think of the costs.

Thanks all, I really appreciate your suggestions x

have you considered the bodrum area,the drive granted would take around 3.5 hours but is very easy,and i think some of the large a.i hotels in torba are very good ,might be worth a look.

Thanks all for your replies. We've booked up for Green Nature in Marmaris, seems to be better than all the low grade AI's in the area so I'm actually quite looking forward to it.
