Basic but clean appartments. Lovely pool, pool area and excellent staff that couldnt do enough for you. All very friendly and situated in a quiet location in Turgutreis.
Cant wait to go back, as usual noone wanted to leave also meet 2 lovely families that we will hopefully meet up with next year!

Very good hotel, for the money. Paid £130. BB. 1 week. through a local travel shop. tour operator was Goldtrail.

THE HOTEL: is about a 10 minute walk from the beach, 15 minutes from the ruins and main shopping or a 3 minute ride on the dolomush costing 1 lira (40p) followed by a tractor ride costing 0.50 Lira (20p)

ROOMS: Small, but adequate, clean and maintained every day, balcony. no fridge or kettle (not a prob. we sat at bar and took our own green tea, they gave us hot water)

POOL: it has a good sized swimming pool. a small bar. the staff are very friendly. Staff: ISA is the head of staff I think.

RESTAURANT: we had food from their restaurant, as did other guests. never a complaint, always comments of very nice meals. try their Hot Pot, or Fish.

EAT OUT: don't miss out on the local cake shop, fantastic range of cakes and pasties and their so cheap, slice of cake cost around 3/4 Lira (£1.50). you cant miss it 20 meters from hotel entrance across road.

EAT OUT: Also very nice family restaurant also cheap . turn left as you step out of hotel and about 70 meters up the road on the left next door to a shop ( KUMRU Restaurant). try their Kofte.

EXCURSIONS: we used an excursion company called (BABA BOOT) BOOT=BOAT. see Martin, Swiss guy with a black cap on near the bottom of the road as you walk down to the beach. we went on the £10. market trip. 2 hour at market , excellent chicken or fish lunch included on board, swimming stops and visit to the waterfall. reasonable priced drinks on board. take plenty of your own water. cos its much cheaper to take your own.

I would recommend hotel.
Hope this helps, have a nice trip. Javid.

I have now stayed at the Palmiye twice. It's well situated, away from the town. A five minute stroll and you can be at either the market place, the town or at the beach. No noise from any bars or the mosque (save for the cockerel, near by)

Staff are very friendly, no hard sell of drinks and food around the pool, in fact no hassle at all! However any requests for assistance, the response is instantaneous.
The aparts are clean and there is maid service every day.
If you are looking for a laid back holiday then this is the place for you!

There is a little local shop at the end of the road, opens til 2-3 am that seems to stock everything!

Palmiye also arranged our transfers, it was lovely leaving the airport, Curly there to greet us and at the aparts in approx 45 mins, not like the tour company, when it takes between 1hr15 - 1hr 45 mins.

We regularly holiday in Turgutreis and have done for years, my best compliment I can give is to say that we will stay at the Palmiye again without hesitation
