prawn,

You may find member Hotel Reviews for the the Kadikale Resort Hotel and Club Izer Beach Hotel aka Izer Hotel useful.

I looked there first, Darren, but the ones for Kadikale date back to 2009 and I just wondered if anyone had been more recently.

Hi Am off to Kadikale on June 12th..look back at May 10th where I got replies to some of my queries. Did fair bit of research (TA as well) and counting the days!!

We went to Izer Beach and had a great time. What is so good about this hotel is that is has 2 areas, one is the club area where all the activity goes on, slides etc and the other is beach side, a lot quieter and lovely views from your sunbed out onto the bay!

We had one of the best holidays ever there last August! It's only downside is that there isn't much around Torba itself.

P.S Have you looked at Trip Advisor for more recent reviews? I know Izer Beach has had some very positive reviews recently! Any questions feel free to ask!

The Kadikale is brilliant! We were there in 2009 and have left a review (Mike T). The hotel is great and it had just been renovated when we went. The rooms are really smart with nice big beds, decent bathroom and good size. The Thomas Cook rooms were in the gardens at the top of the hotel, this was quite a walk from the bar / restaurant but was quieter on a night. You have to climb alot of steps to get to these rooms so no good for people with difficulty walking. Saying that you can walk to the rooms via the beach front and pool and you only have a few steps.
Food was excellent, always loads of choice and top notch standard - soup and bread at midnight was the best! No free ice cream on AI though which is a first for us.

Easy to get to town on the Dolmus from the end of the drive and only 15 mins.

The only bad thing is the transfer, 2 hours from Bodrum with a change of bus halfway through.

Any questions, give me a shout.

Thanks for those replies - heading to TA today to check out prices etc. 'Sir' fancies Izer because it is nearer to Bodrum but he likes the looks of Kadikale - so guess it is down to me (again!) let's hope I get it right!!

Trouble is - both hotels have good reports and both have positives and negatives. Will just have to go with the gut feeling as usual.

Will let you know what I decide on.

Thanks again.
