Re-named hotel?

Hi I have been searching on line for accommodation. I have found a hotel called Boutique Casa and Blanca, it seems to be near the Aqua and has been re-furbished for this year. Anyone heard of it or know what it used to be called. We have been to Icmeler many times and I dont recall a hotel of this name.

Just Goggled it, and it looks very nice, and shows some lovely pictures. All it says is that it is situated in a bay. I am wondering if it was the big white hotel at the end of the bay as you look towards Marmaris...can't think of the name now, sorry :(

I think that hotel was the Laguna now called Fantasia. The resturant at this hotel is the Cavalier and is vey good. Thanks for your reply. May just take a risk and book anyway as we are getting a good deal.

I've just googled it too - it seems to be on the beachfront along near the Munamar, if I'm reading the map correctly. I know the Munamar has been sold, but from the description, the Casa Blanca would seem too small to be that. Don't know if anyone has any other ideas?

From their own website, it seems to be at the other end of the beach from the old Laguna, now the Fantasia.

go to the hotels website then click on the contact us tab,
then click the google map window it shows its location
to be on the waste ground infront of the hotel ELIF.

The Elif hotel was taken over by the Prestige group last year so has been ripped out the same as the Galeria and Oylum was the year before.

It looks very nice indeed and I will be taking quite a few photos for you lot when I get around to it in a few weeks time.

Pity the street its in is a tatty one
