Hi, just wanted to thank everyone in the forum. I'm going to Icmeler for the first time next week with my mum and I think I've read every topic and every reply on absolutely everything! This is a fantastic hive of information and I shall recommend it! My only disappointment is that I think we've booked the worst hotel in the resort - the Alinda!!!!!! When we booked I read two good reports and now I've not seen one - eek! however I'm sure the beach and the two bars next door will more than make up for it - here's to meeting lots of friendly people...... :lol:

Hi JOLOU and welcome to the forum.

I wouldn't worry too much about the Alinda. Ok, it's not a great hotel, but the rooms are ok, and very clean (my friend stopped there earlier this year). Just treat it as somewhere to sleep at night. It's in a great location, so that's a plus point, and the Dream 3 bells is only a few doors down, and you'll love it in there. The beach is only a few minutes away too. I'm sure that you will have a great time and it will be the first visit of many. Like the rest of us on here you will become "addicted" :lol:

Enjoy.

Hi Jolou, the Alinda might not be the best but it's well situated. Come out of the door and you can fall into the Havana. The dream 3 bells, Hobgoblin, and Sugars bar are 2 mins away. :)

I agree about the pool at the Alinda, it's weird, but hey fall next door into the Havana Bar and Zaza will keep you entertained for hours :D

Thank you so so much for your replies - I'm not feeling too bad now, I was dreading telling my mum all the bad things I've read about the Alinda, but you've all put my mind slightly at ease. Anyhow - all you need is somewhere to rest your head on holiday - surely! - THANKS AGAIN TO ALL....

That's it Jolou, just make sure you have a great time and I can guarantee that won't be hard in Icmeler!
As far as I know, the Alinda is clean and that's always top of my list

ooo just think, the beach is less than a minute's walk, so who needs a pool in the sun eh? and there are plenty of hotels nearby with nice pools who won't mind you using them at all!!
