got back this morning from our 12th trip to paradise.Flew with a turkish airline and everything went well set off and arrived on time,decided to book private transfer this time and thought it was well worth the extra cost no sitting on coach while dropping of in marmaris first.
apartments where just as good as i had rembered,lot of new staff this year but no change in the friendly cheery atmosphere.
one thing we did notice this year as how many more shops and a few restaurants had closed down. also of those who have survived the latest round of closures where closing earlier.
some of the bars we went into were saying altough plenty of people are comming to icmeler most were going all inclusive.
spent most of our daytime round the pool ( DONE THE TRIPS A WANTED TO DO ). spent night trying different retsaurants and bars,and may i say still not had a bad meal. But there seems to be and underlying worry in some of the bars that they may not be able to open next year.
hope we are wrong and the icmeler we loved on our very first visit comes back.having said all that have already booked for next year (hope i dont regret it).
