We have just returned home from our first trip to Olu, one that is not going to be the last, in fact, Im already looking for flights to return back there in july/August.
I will write a review, for the hotel and the resort but I have NEVER had such a perfect holiday, in such a perfect place than the past 10 days we have just spent in Olu. Travelling as a single mum, I have felt very uncomfortable in many places, but this holiday has been the most wonderful, in every way, the hotel was lovely, the people fantastic, and I already know that my heart is in Olu in many ways!!
I am back at home, yet it doesn't feel like home, I feel as if I left "home" when we got on that flight back to Gatwick. I am going to end up with one big phone bill too lol
I simply cannot wait to return, and maybe it will not only be my heart that will be in Olu! Let the house hunting begin!
Thank you everyone for your help before we went, as a first visit to Turkey, I had very mixed feelings, but have been blessed by the most perfect holiday I could ever have asked for, in a lovely hotel, a beautiful resort, with great weather, and some of the friendliest people we have ever met.
I am very depressed and sad at being "home", but am going to book some flights very soon!
Karen xx
I feel exactly the same about Olu Deniz, cant wait till July when we are back.
I have yet to meet anyone who has had a bad holiday in Olu.

im pleased you enjoyed your holiday to olu, it is a gorgeous place and the people are so lovely, we have just returned from slovenia and the people there were very abrupt and cold, roll on july for our holiday to turkey too
Sounds like you found luurrrrve!
I fell in love with the place most definitely, in many ways. . . I had so many reservations about Turkey, but I just want to get back there as soon as I can, have just found flights to fly out for 3 weeks in August, which would mean less than 60 days I could be back there again. . . .
Sounds like you found luurrrrve!
as for finding luurrrrve . . . well. maybe
We have never been to the same place twice, now I dont think I will ever want to go anywhere else . . . so, if anyone here knows people to get in touch with regarding buying property, please point me in their direction . . .
Aw, that's great that you enjoyed it so much.
Be careful about that heart, our daughter lost here heart when we took her there one year, she had a long distance relationship for about 18 months but it ended when her friend decided to marry a turkish girl! They are very charming but tend to see british girls as a bit of fun (**X!*@*).
Every waitor you speak to has an english girlfriend.
Sorry to be negative, I may be wrong about your friend but generally they are as I say.

I'm not allowed to send pm's for some reason, but could give you the name of the person I bought and sold my property with.
Thanks Karen. I really enjoyed reading your post. It just made me smile somehow. Know exactly how you feel too. We went to Olu for 1st time last year and i have felt homesick ever since. Cant wait to get back there in 2 weeks.

I totally hear you on this and Im sorry that your daughter got messed around, its so sad to hear of that happening! When I said about my heart being in Olu, I actually meant that I had falled in love with everything about the place rather than a particular person, although I did meet someone there, its definitely the place I am in love with ! At my age Im too much of a realist to know that anything like that could work
But I just loved the place, have NEVER felt that about anywhere we have been on holiday could never describe it as a perfect holiday, so to do that this time is nothing short of a miracle. I just long to be there, and just cant wait to get into work on monday so I can book the time out on the holiday calendar
as for the girl thing well as a man what can be said s mall amount of english young ladies gives the turkish the view of all english girls as wanting fun, but then its the same in other countries just be careful
i fell in love with the place when there was nothing there and watched it grow the people have always been nice and kind
Maverick, I can see why you fell in love with the place, Ive never really done that with anywhere I have been to, until now that is. And as for the people, they were lovely! I felt so at home, so comfortable and so at ease, something that to me travelling as a single parent is very important. I cannot wait to return, just trying to find the cheapest way of doing so during the school summer holidays
Hi Karen, Aegean Flights release their Summer 2008 flights this month, its worth waiting to see their prices, as last year they were around £80 each incl taxes, charges etc, even for school holidays!
Have just posted my review of the hotel, and I just have a longing to be back there now.......soon tho! lol
Karen, I've sent you a message re property. Wasn't sure if you're allowed to post links to companies or not!
Bumping for another single mum contemplating hols!
hi karen. we off to olu 2 weeks today, it will be our first time to. i just hope it lives up to everything being said on here. there shud be space in a suitcase if you are desperate
