Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

one of my work mates has returned to work today having just got back from icmeler yesterday. it was her and her hubby's first time to turkey and she had been really apprehensive about going, but as they got a good deal and much, much persuasion from me they decided to try it and.........guess what? they had a brill time and are going back next year.

she loved the food, the people, the resort, the weather. everything.

she even managed to track down my friend aziz who is working in masalla restaurant and enjoyed some banter with him.

the good thing is, a lot of my work mates are (or were) of the "I don't think I fancy Turkey" brigade, but now there's two of us flying the flag for icmeler perhaps they might have a wee re-think. here's hoping.

Nice to hear that - to be honest, I've never met anyone yet who hasn't loved the place as much as we all obviously do! What's NOT to love about Icmeler?

My soon to be mother and father-in-law took their first trip to Turkey last year. They stayed in the Hotel Marti half board and came home with rave reviews and had a fantastic holiday. They returned to the resort and the Marti hotel last month on an AI deal and once again had a brilliant time.

They have since booked to return in June 2010.

The fact that they travel abroad three times a year and are returning to Icmeler for the 3rd time in three years speaks volumes.

nice to hear
cause i know what you mean with a lot of people being in the "i dont fancy going to turkey"
a lot of my friends say it and they really dont know what they are missing until they have been there

Quite agree, its always the people who have never been who have all the strong views. Over the years we have persuaded one or two to try Icmeler and lo and behold they all came back raving and have since returned. Goes to prove you shouldn't knock it untill you have tried it

Same here, I'm sick of people saying 'we don't fancy Turkey', the few that we have persuaded to go are now regulars

I have now managed to get couple of my friends to try Turkey with their families and they all had a great time (after members of the families never wanted to go to Turkey - both went to Icmeler ).

Then a friend last year asked my opinion on holiday destination between Greece and Turkey and they knew what my answer would be and low and behold they also went to Icmeler and had a great time and thanked me for introducing them to Turkey - as even on the coach transfer were aprehensive as to what they were letting themselves in for.

Work colleague who also thought that they wouldn't go to Turkey - after me going on about it and when looking for a good deal got one for Turkey (not Icmeler ) has now returned after having a great time and will definatley go back to Turkey.

It's amazing the amount of people who say they wouldn't go and then once they've been realise what they have been missing out on!

We hope next year to bring our Grandkids with us ,looking at Rhodes Apartments,my daughter has been to Icmeler 4 times but not for a couple of years as she had a bad experience the last time (which she wont tell me about)but we think she is mellowing now so hopefully a complete family holiday next year

I have a confession to make i was one Those i dont fancy turkey but once i arrived there in Icmeler and stayed those first two weeks we have been going no where else for the past 12 years. We have met some great families and made some very good friends .I would recommend anyone to try turkey and especially Icmeler. kenny

my mum didnt want to go to turkey about 20 years ago when my dad asked her
but we decided to go for the first time in 2002
and have never been anywhere else cause we just think its amazing
the people, the food, the weather, the culture and the atmosphere
we like alanya but icmeler has always been our favourite

We were the same, took our friends ages to persuade us to join then on their first trip to Turkey in 2002, we have not been anywhere else since and have already booked for next year.
