Lovely, clean apartments. We were on the 3rd floor with a pool view. Air conditioning worked a treat in the bedroom. Disappointed there was no patio set on bacony. Kithen table and 4 chairs were there instead. Only downfall of these apartments was lack of water to shower. We would get a dribble of cold water in the morning and a dribble of boiling hot water inthe evening. In the end we landed up showering down by the pool in the evening.

As soon as we arrived we were greeted by very good English speaking staff who could'nt be more helpful with our luggage.
There are no lifts available wich after time became a nuisance although there are only 3 floors to the whole complex, (we were on the 3rd floor and had a pram wich we had to carry up a few steps each time we were to enter/vacate our room).
The apartments are beyond clean, they are that clean you could do surgery on someone in it, the maids are fantastic and are very efficient, as for space well they are quite average really although the bedroom does have a kingsize bed in it wich is very comfy.
The bathroom was of an average size with an awkwardly situated bath and a shower wich was'nt working properly, i think the shower head was damaged.
The air-conditioning is situated in the bedroom near the celing above the wardrobe and it does a marvellous job cooling the bedroom but is doesnt seem to stretch into the small dining quarters, it can also become very cold of a night if you dont choose the correct setting on the remote control you get with it (how good is that a remote).
We didnt get a cot we had our baby sleep in the middle of us in the big bed but we did see the cots they looked alright, they were'nt wooden they were like a steel type cot, not very nice to look at but I suppose it would have done the job.
The big pool is great, in a word I would describe it as heaven, it is big in a sort of foot shape and has a deeper centre than the ends wich are shallower (quite clever really), it also has slides wich are great fun even for adults (im sure if anyone else whom has stayed here reads my post they will agree).
They also have a small circular baby pool about 10 inches deep wich was good for our little baby because he could stand up in it easily and splash about, (hes 22 months old) he loved it.
The apartments eating section is intergrated with the bar, sounds strange but it works out well, there are plenty of tables and chairs wich are under a huge shelter at the left hand side of the appartments, under this huge shelter also exsists a long bar wich the staff are friendly and at your beck and call, they have a 40 inch plasma screen tv on the wall for all events such as football matches and also for people who dont want to miss out on Coronation Street as the bar holds the equipment to search 9000 channels (yep 9 thousand), and during midday they have a movie playing on the screen for people to watch (the movie is ussually one being shown on the cinema or one ready to be shown on the cinema).
There is also a full size pool table for those who can play because i cant so i gave it a miss.
The food was ok, we did'nt eat in that much we went out to eat but what we did get was of a reasonable standard.
They have some entertainment on of an evening although again we never stayed in to see much of it but i believe it was good.
The location of the apartments is in a culdesac, the culdesac is litteraly just off the the main strip, its a quiet location and you can easily sleep without the noise of the lively part of the main strip bothering you at all (brilliant), just around the corner is the main medical centre (not that you will need it), the apartments are about a 2 minute walk from the first bars and resturants and about a 8-10 minute walk from Ichmeler beach.
The staff are very friendly and easily approachable, if you have a problem they will sort it out for you without bother.
The staff are all Turkish but most can speak reasonably good English and one inparticular could pass as a manchunian fellow as his English is that good (his name is Baz) he is the Health & Safety guy.
The managers of the appartments seemed to us assif they were quite misserable, they never seemed to get involved with the other members of staff (the managers are Sabastian and Ali).
The other members of staff whom were more active were Rambo, Johhny and Baz , these go to the local outdoor enclosed football pitches every wednesday and sunday for a great game of football, everyone is welcome and its really good fun (but Baz is a greedy player and the Turks are quite rubbish at football, although Rambo thinks he's Diego Maradonna).
Overall this was a great holiday, Ivery much recommend these appartments to anybody for the location and accessible entertainment.

Had two glorious weeks at the Palm Garden apartments in Icmeler. Baz,Rambo and the staff including the owners Ali & Sebastian really made all my family really welcome and relaxed.
The food was good especially the barbq nites which are a real let your hair down affair the location is just right for families as its not on the front infact when arriving to it you think its a backstreet dump until you turn the corner and the place is set in a ideal place,to the rear you see mountains and pine trees and all around you it is private villas.
Just right for families at night infact if my mother had not of moved out there I would stay here every year,mind you I will be going back to visit them again next year
