when we arrived there was only one apartment not the two we had paid for. after waiting all day we did get a second one. the apartments were clean but shabby. there was no hot water at all and ofeten no water !!, pool area had little shade and the bar played loud music all the time.the staff were often rude and unhelpful.needless to say i spent minimal amount of time there.

We stayed at The Adler Apartments in Icmeler , Turkey from the 1st of July until the 15th of July, and thoroughly enjoyed it.We traveled as a family of 5 (2 adults, 2 teenagers and one 11 year old)

FLIGHT WITH FREEBIRD AIRLINE (SCOTTRAVEL)

The flight over was good with adequate legroom, and NO DELAYS (YIPEE!!)
The food was nice and the flight crew who are Turkish, were very helpful. Seats were comfortable. You will the get on a air-conditioned coach from Dalaman to Adler apts which takes approx. 2 hrs.

WELCOME / STAFF

Upon arrival at the apartments, a member of staff will show to your room.
The staff couldn't be more helpful, constantly doing their best to help. As soon as we walked in we noticed a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Special thanks to Spyder, Ibo and Ali.

ROOMS

The rooms are very clean, basic but adequate. Their is a Kitchenette with a kettle, glasses, a sandwich toaster and 2 ring hot plates. The room looked like it had been freshly painted white. Airconditioning & Safety deposit box - optional but essential extras. There is a spacious wardrobe with coathangers - the room also has 2 single beds. In the bedroom there is 2 single beds and a dressing table and stool. ONLY DOWNSIDE IS NO DRAWERS

BATHROOM

The bathroom is very clean with a clean toilet and a washbasin and towels. The shower is rubbish and leaks all over the floor but everything else was so good that we didn't care.

This was my third time to turkey but my first in icmeler, the previous times i'd stayed in marmaris, so icmeler was a lot quieter, which was nice, but the adler was superb, as with most of the reviews on here you will see that the main subject topic is the staff, thats because they really do make your holiday, they are the nicest people you could meet, always happy and would do anything for you, the rooms are cleaned daily same as the pool area. they have a great variety of snacks and meals and make it very appealing by offering a free breakfast voucher with every evening meal so you even get to save money, the local beer efes is on sale behind the bar and is cheaper than any where else it works out at about a pound a bottle - fantastic. Would recommend this hotel to anyone its fab.

I stayed at the Adler Apartments with my partner and my father, whilst the apartments are a bit out the way it's only a 10 minute walk into the centre or the domni bus passes by constantly. I have stayed in turkey before at slightly nicer apartments but I would definately stay at the Adler again as the staff were very welcoming, great entertainers and great genuine people.

If you are reading this guys hi to Eric, Billy, spider and Ali and all the rest!!!

The apartments are as I said in a quite location which means you can chill out by the pool. They are very clean and there is one pool which is cleaned morning and night. The main attraction again has to be the staff they are fantastic. Oh and don't miss the staff show it is so funny.
