Turkey - Affordable, luxury holidays
For some time now our regular clients and our loyal travel agent partners have been pressing us to look at this very beautiful, largely unspoilt country, particularly the Aegean and the Mediterranean coasts, and now we have!
A small but hand-picked selection of hotels
Looking for appropriate areas and hotels was a huge pleasure, because standards are very high. We settled on just 12 different hotels. Some are small boutique privately owned havens, some are hidden away in forests a few minutes from the sea, whilst others are larger with lots of facilities on the waters edge. Do take a few minutes to look through them to find the right one for you - or call our knowledgeable team who will be able to advise you.
THE RESORT OF YOUR CHOICE. . .
Below is a little information about the resorts that we have on offer.
Kas is on a delightful bay with a backdrop of limestone cliffs and hillsides covered with forests of pine trees. Restful and relaxed, Kas offers a good choice of bars, shops and restaurants. Lots of good excursions by sea start from the harbour.
Oludeniz has a truly magnificent white sand beach with steeply rising mountains behind. It gets busy in the season so our selected property is away from the busiest part. Neighbouring Fethiye is a large town with a busy bazaar. There are good water sports and hiking around Oludeniz.
Cesme is a truly charming coastal resort with the port dominated by the powerful 14th century fortress.Within the old town there are narrow old streets where a bargain may be found. The beaches in this area are some of the best in the Aegean. A visit to Ephesus, the commercial centre of the ancient world is a must, it is one of the best preserved of ancient cities.
Gocek is in an idyllic setting on a bay surrounded by impressive mountains. This small resort has a beautiful marina and lots of smaller bays to explore by sea. Our selected hotel here has the only sandy beach in the area. Some shops, cafés and restaurants.
Marmaris is a large busy bustling resort with lots of bars and cafés. Its location, on a beautiful bay near the scenically gorgeous Datca Peninsula is good. Our clients prefer less frantic spots to holiday and that is why our chosen all inclusive hotel is around the bay in nearby Icmeler on the beach.
Bodrum is a very prosperous town with a marina full of expensive yachts, some great restaurants and very good shopping. There is a 15th century castle here and the fascinating Museum of Underwater Archaeology, don’t miss GlassWreck Hill! There is no beach in Bodrum itself so our selected hotels are on excellent beaches a short ride from town, at Barbaros Bay and Torba.
Lots of local airport departures
When using our "Book Online" please note which arrival airport is most suitable for your hotel, this is displayed at the bottom of each hotel page.
Getting to Turkey is easy! There are flights throughout the summer from many UK airports to Dalaman, the most convenient airport for most resorts in this brochure. As always we will book the most convenient flights for you from your local airport.
Friendly and with plenty of activities
We found everyone to be very friendly and courteous whereever we went. There is a huge range of activities from watersports, cultural and historical, sightseeing and more to occupy the more active traveller. Dining - again there is a wide range of cuisine on offer within the hotels and at local restaurants.
Coastal Cruising - The coastline of the South of Turkey is exceptionally beautiful with innumerable small sandy bays tucked away around every headland. The back drop is usually of unspoilt pine covered hills and mountains. All this can be yours to enjoy on a days sailing on a gulet with lunch and time to stop and swim included. Your hotel will be glad to arrange a day at sea for you, in fact, a couple of our selected hotels have their
own gulet to tempt you.

A short break, a week or 10 days, just let us know. If you would like to stay in 2 different areas we will organise that for you with pleasure.We will of course transfer you to your chosen hotel in a private transfer, for your comfort and to save time.
