Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

i am off to icmeler on Moday but looking at the webcam it looks very quite there, has anyone just returned and if anyone has what is the price of effes
the turkish lira seems to be soaring

What is the name of the restaurant on the bottom right of the webcam, feeling sorry for the waiter trying to get people in. I'm going 9th Oct to Palm Garden and have friends in Marmaris at the moment who say it is very quiet compared to last year. This will be our 4th time in Icmeler after a 3 year gap.

Think it's Harry's Bar, if so they do a lovely chicken and chips

Hi just to say that we arrived home yesterday from Icmeler and yes it is very quite but on a plus note the beer prices where rangeing from 2ytl to 3.5. Good food prices o.k set menus fine weather it was hot last week.Anyway good holiday and yes it is Harry Steak Resturant.Cheers

Welcome back truth, looking forward to your tales

We just returned from Icmeler last night and had a fab time.I have to say I have never seen Icmeler so quiet.It is very hot and getting hotter by the day.The rate is 3tyl to £ when changed at the bank.

can someone tell me do you think it is wise to change money into lira here before we go .i know the rate is 3 just now but past experience tells me it will fall dramatically by the time we come on the 6th.i can get 2.93 at the post office but i'm unsure as we always take travellers cheques and change them there. thanks sandra

I just got back on Friday and apparently for the time of year it was really quiet, although the second week that we were in icmeler did seem a little busier than the first week.

When we went we didn't take any turkish money at all with us and just changed it when we were there, at the beginning of the holiday we were getting about 2.75 to the £ and towards the end some places were offering nearly 3. We also tended to pay for meals in the restaurnts in english money so when we did change money we only changed a little bit at a time.

Efes was 2-3.75ytl depending on where you were drinking when we were there in May

I had chicken and chips from Harry's for lunch and it was disgusting I dont know what they have started frying their chips in but they were horrible really tangy and the chicken was dry I was really disappointed as we have being going to them for years. We will be giving them a miss when we go back in Sept which is a shame as last year they done the most fantastic Chateu brion (excuse spelling) We have had.

Wellcome back Dianne truth and Rachel.

Sorry I never got round to the Ustun to meet you Dianne but you did meet Terry and Sandra our friends who also stopped at these apatments.
Terry rated the Ustun Highly and said he would definately use them again.

I also noticed that they are only bookable through Icmeleronline.
Surely after a stay of 3 weeks you have some little storries to tell us of your favourite restaurents and bars.
Did you get to Akyaka? only I thought you wanted to go there.

Rachel and truth, would be nice if you also could pop a few lines on the forum for all us poor souls who are just dieing to hear tales of our loved resort

Yes we did meet Terry and Sandra,when staying at Ustan Apartments,The apartments are very nice but will be staying somewhere else next time as stairs are a problem for me.
We went to Akyaka twice,a lovely place,very quiet and no hassle will go there again when we next visit in October.
