Stayed at the Iguana in June and they were great - plenty of towels supplied and the maids are usually around in the mornings if you need to ask for more. I would certainly stay at them again - great location, clean, spacious and well-equipped -plus you've got the bonus of seeing the lovely ICR ladies every day! :D

Hi


Check with orange as they have scraped the roaming charges this year it may be just as cheap to use your own mobile

Orange are only Zone 1 and 2 (EU), with no roaming charges, as I've had an extra £12 added to my bill. Therefore, it doesn't include Turkey because they're Zone 3. It may well have changed but I doubt it. If Turkey were to be in the EU then they'd be included.

In the old village, there was a supermarket that sells a phone card for 5 lira. It lasts about 10-15 minutes (to a landline) and gives you about 50 credits. There'll be other shops that sell them I'm just not sure which. You can't really complain for £2.50.

Enjoy your holiday.

Turkish telephone cards from supermarkets are a good buy and what you don't use the first time can be saved and used the next time you come back on holiday.
