Hello Helen, I'm sure you would love Bitez, it's traditional and has wonderful restaurants.
As for B&B, I, and I'm sure Briar will back me up on this, would recommend the Manuela Hotel. Just have a look at the hotel reports. Or have a look at the Bitez photo album.
Any other questions, just ask.
Marn.
Thanks for that. The Manuela certainly has great reviews. Do you know which companies go there?
We always book direct with the Manuela after we have found our flights. Their web site is http://www.manuelahotel.com
Gold Trail Holidays are the only one I know of which book the Manuela.
Another decent hotel is the Okaliptus. Del can tell you about that one.
Best of luck. Marn.
The 3 women all work in a school so we have to holiday in August. Whenever we have tried to book direct it's very expensive as we can't find any cheap flights. I'll have a look though. Thanks Helen
Last year we stayed (B&B) at the Small World. It is just back from the beach but close to all the restaurants. Small, clean and quiet.
Sirca Apartments with First Choice might suit you - we liked it and it gets good reviews.
I'll have a look at all your suggestions - thanks. I like the look of the Manuela but from what I've read the Gold Trail company doesn't have much of a reputation, and so far I haven't found anyone else that goes there.
I think Goldtrail's reputation is based mainly on some of the properties they use. And, as we know, the Manuela is a great hotel.
Beginning of August 08 for 2 weeks from either Cardiff or Bristol.
Helen, Ive tried looking for flights, but nothing is coming up yet for August 2008.
Helen - First Choice are showing flights from Bristol departing Sunday, 22.50 and returning on Monday, 05.50. The cost, including tax, meals, 20kg baggage etc. is £325.50pp. Can't find any others at the moment. The dates I tried were Sunday, 3rd to Monday, 15th. At least it gives you a starting point.
Anyway, have found two flights from Cardiff via flightline.co.uk
Thomsonfly - £330 pp
FCA - £365 pp
Both for dates 3rd to 18th August 2008 and they both have more or less same departure times - 07.15 outbound and 14.20 inbound.
Hope this gives you some idea - may be lower prices when other carriers bring out their prices for those dates.
Would be very interested on how you find Kassandra, although theres not much we can do about it now!!
hope you have a great holiday Marn.

ps. no kettles in room
bigknighty - have you been to Kassandra before? We are going in September......5th time to Bitez but first to this hotel.
Hi Prawn,we are going to the kassandra in bitez the last two weeks in aug never been before but we got a good deal and the reveiws for it were not bad. Never been to bitez either we usually go to kalkan or turunc but flights to dalaman were terrible times so we thought we would try somewhere different.We holidayed in gumbet about 8 yrs ago but did'nt manage to visit bitez I take it from the number of times you have been you would reccomend it?
Mel.
hi prawn no we have never stayed at the kassandra this will be our first time we usually stay at makumba summer garden apts. we used to use the kassandra at lunchtimes and for their sunbeds as that end of the beach was never very crowded, and as we have no kids this year we thought we would go for something small and basic looked on the net and found this was a good bargain 2 weeks b&b for 2 people £477.42 dont no what the rooms are like but it was always clean & tidy in the dinning area, toilets, reception & around the pool and the staff were very friendly
Bigknighty - sounds like it should be ok. Nice to know you have at least visited the hotel. Don't usually worry too much as a hotel is just a place to sleep and as long as it is clean and friendly it suits me - this year though we are staying for 4 weeks so I guess I am worrying more than usual as it was my choice (but then when is it not?! 'Sir' couldn't book a hotel to save his life! )
Nice to hear from you, Mel. Hope you are ok. Where are you off to this year?
Good to hear your view on Kassandra. We will have to look out for each other and have a cold Efes! Cant wait to go, really need a holiday and am so excited about visiting Turkey. thanks for the tip on the kettle, have borrowed one to take. Look out for us when you get ther!
