apartment virgins

Postby sancher » 03 Aug 2010 14:14

We have been holidaying in Icmeler for a long time but have never stayed in apartments before. Basically we would appreciate any advice on what to take with us - what is provided, what is not provided eg. toilet rolls etc. I understand that this may vary depending on where you stay.

in all of the apartments i have stayed in you are provided with basic kitchen facilities i.e. crockery, cutlery, pots & pans, and cooking utensils. the apartment will have a fridge and a hob for cooking (some have microwaves and toasters but I don't think your apartments do)
you are normally provided with one toilet roll to start with then you have to supply your own. bed linen and towels are changed regularly.
some people take food from home that they can't do without i.e. butter, cheese, bacon, teabags etc. most things are available to buy in the supermarkets in Icmeler but can be expensive.
any other questions just ask ! :D

we always take a bottle opener/cork screw for carry outs from the tansas and also a bread knife as some of the knives in the apartments can be a bit ropey and pretty useless
I try and remember to pack a tea towel scourer for washing up and a packet of sweeteners for tea and coffee
Have taken cheese slice before and also bought mugs in resort as the apartment ones are tiddly!

Best to check with your particular apartment, sandra - we've stayed in some which do provide an iron and ironing board, but others which have not. Seems to vary from one place to another.
