Datca is where you will find the real Turkey, And a great deserted beach with a few Restauraunt bars, Not very many Tourist's visit here. And you will find great information on it also.

Thanks for the suggestion, I really like the look of Datca.
Unfortunately we can only fly to Izmir or Antalya (long story) so it's out of the question for now.
Would definately like to visit in future though

ive been to olu deniz , akyaka loads and cesme. cesme isnt as scenic as the other 2 resorts, its about the same size as olu deniz so therefore bigger than akyaka but not that big. it attracts a lot of rich turkish people, the town is compact and theres a small castle near the harbour, its quite nice , but i love akyaka and i think you would like it but not love it , if you know what i mean

Hi my preference of course is for the quiet area of Cirali. Unfortuneately most of the areas around Antalya with exception for Cirali and Adrasan are built up tourist resorts.

have a look through my photos;

also if you read this article "Turkey's hidden treasures"

and I quote ;

"You don't have to go to the Black Sea to escape the package-tour hordes. There are still plenty of spots along the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts that have escaped the onslaught of concrete, such as the tiny beachside villages of Adrasan and Çirali, either side of the ruined Roman city of Olympos, about 1 hours' drive west of Antalya.

Inch-for-inch, the stretch of coast between Adrasan and Olympos must be one of the most beautiful in the Mediterranean, with hidden bays and unbelievable water clarity."
