I'm sure you will have a great tim in Gumbet Kat, I used to live there so we know it really well. Have a good holiday
HI, I'm looking for a resort recommendation. I love the sound of Olu Deniz and am very tempted to book a holiday there. In fact I may do it before this evening's out. The only thing putting me off is that TC state that the resort transfer time is at least 2 hours. Can anybody recommend a similar resort to Olu which is a lot closer to the airport please? Thanks.
Dalyan is less than 30 minutes. We're just back & absolutely loved the place.
Reasonable quiet but plenty of bars & restaurants. If you're into clubbing and younger it may not be for you. Perfect for those wanting a low-key relaxing holiday. ( & you can do a trip to Fethiye, Olu deniz from there)

Thanks toastedmallow. I've just read some reviews and it seems good. 2 disadvantages for me though are the fact that it's by the river (loads of mossies) and there isn't a beach close by.
Any other recommendations please?

Yes there were mozzies but if you spray arms & legs before you go out at night you should be fine. We had no problems. Turtle beach is a lovely 30 minute boat trip down the river or by dolmus to the other end of the 6km beach, so IMO you get the best of both worlds, but if you're a serious beach person maybe that would get a bit tiresome every day.
We were in Bitez last year. Again a small quiet resort with loads of restaurants on the beach front. Loved it too plus you cam catch a dolmus into nearby Gumbet or Bodrum if you fancied more shopping/nightlife (15 -30 min journey)
Hope you get something sorted. (transfer time from airport was less than 1 hour if I remember correctly!)

Bitez is lovely I agree. It takes 45 minutes by car from the airport and about 1 hour by coach transfer.
Just bought some Efes beer in Tesco this morning. Really pleased. I can start getting in the mood for my hols in September.
Does anyone know of Hotel Miramer Beach in Marmaris? I believe it is on the stretch near the Grand Azul Hotel. The hotel is being offered as the stay part of a cruise and stay package but I can't find any details on it. Has anyone stayed there or noticed it whilst on holiday - Thanks
I booked the Karbel Hotel, Olu deniz in the end. Does anybody have a link to any olu deniz websites please? I love reading about the resorts I visit.
Thanks
Thanks
Have a look at http://www.hisaronu.co.uk we found this site very helpful before we went ,
we stayed in Hisaronu which is just up the hill from Olu , had a great time but H was the wrong resort for us .

we stayed in Ovacik and liked this as its quiet but you can walk into Hisaronu and have more life if you want it, jump on a bus to Olu Deniz or to Fethiye
Thanks for the link Lindy. I also found this after a google search http://www.oludenizbeach.com/main.html
I'm getting excited already

I think you will , it was our first time to Turkey as i said in my post Hisaronu wasn't for us , but we loved Olu , Fethiye Ovacik, they are more laid back . Hisaronu is great in the day but can be too loud and in your face for us , but there are some lovely restaurants , and bars .......... spoilt for choice really , something to suit everones needs.
Anyone out there planning on getting married to Turkish or any other nationality should take there time, make sure you know all there is to know, family, friends etc, nobody wants relationships to fail, there is good and bad every where you go, so the advice should always be to slow down, give it time to see if its the real thing, holiday romances are always high energy and romantic, things change when that wears off so need to know you have a good solid friendship to get you through the bad times.
Saying all that we married after 3 months still married after 30 years, but dosnt always work that well, all the best, take care

You might find our Hotel Review and Airport/ resort transfers- Q&As topics useful. We don't have any member reviews for that hotel so you may want to post on the main forum to see if any members know the hotel.
