Just got back!!

Well we got home 4am this morning from fortnight in Icmeler. What a lovely place, it gets better every time I go. It was 45 degrees C yesterday at 11am in the sunshine and 38 in the shade, and is just getting hotter. We had booked in Grand Aquarium apartments but they were too far away from our family and friends in the centre, so we paid to stay in the Avlu 4 apartments for the last 10 days. Lovely spacious place with a friendly owner. Icmeler was busy but not jam packed so as you would notice it. Everyone is as friendly as ever with not too much hassle.

i will attempt to put some pics up later on.

Hi, Just wondered - did you go with a tour operator eg Thomas Cook etc. that allowed you to move to another accommodation at extra cost or did you pay full amount yourself for the 10 days? We're booked at s/c accom a bit further out than i would have liked(Life Apartments Turunc Road) and would like to know If I could afford to upgrade ~if I felt I needed to. Thanx.

Hi. Yes we booked through ********. But all our friends and family were in the centre of Icmeler and it was too much hassle texting them all the time to see where they were etc (and 50p per text!) and getting dolmus up and down and having to leave early for the last one, so we just used the travel agents in the square and they got us the Avlu 4 for £21 per night self catering. They took us around the places they did and I looked at a few different apartments before picking the one I wanted. They brought us and our luggage down too for nothing. When we told the ***** rep where we were going she moaned and said if we'd mentioned to her that we wanted to be closer she may have been able to do something to help out and save some money, but she also said she couldnt have guaranteed that anyway. So although we spent £210 extra for the 10 days, it was so worth it, we were next to everyone, had a lovely spacious apartment and the best holiday! Some hotels were charging only £6pppn b&b (but breakfasts weren't up to much - but for that price who cares?!) Enjoy your hols
