First the positives. The apartments and villas are finished to a very high standard, that’s it. Then the negatives. Where to start. The staff. Generally okay apart from the bar staff. Beware they bite! Literally. Our 10 year old son had the marks on his arm to prove it. They would really rather be running a club in Falariki and blare music out of their sound system at volumes that actually distort. Its not pleasant Turkish folk music but something that can only be described as a cross between hip hop/rap and thrash metal. Lying around the pool for some RNR is just not possible. As our apartment was close to the bar it meant no respite at all from early morning until long after I had stuffed ear plugs in to try and block the noise and get some sleep. It sums it up that even our teenage daughter was commenting how loud it was. The bus – complete rip off. On more than 50% of occasions when we tried to get the bus back from Yalikavak it wasn’t there and we ended up paying a fortune to taxis – at least those prepared to take us back up the incredibly steep hill. Bus is 2.5 lira each to go 4 km, double in the evenings. For comparison the local bus from Yalikavak costs 3 lira to go to Bodrum, 32km away. Air Con – very apt. On arrival they tried to extract £50 a week out of us for the air con. Fortunately we took copies of the web site we booked through which clearly said it was included. As soon as you challenge them they back down. English Satellite channels. Yep they are all there in the listings, they’re all blocked mind you. Interesting all the porn channels are not locked which could be interesting if the kids get hold of the remote. The Supermarket – nothing super about it at all and on several occasions I met old Mother Hubbard coming out such was the stock levels they maintained. When you are so far from town this makes it very difficult. But as they said you can of course get drinks and ice creams at the bar – they would wouldn’t they. Internet Cafe – the mouse didn’t work on the single PC stuck out of the back of the office – but no refund of course, just continuously told to reboot the PC to see if that corrected it. Golf style buggies to run you around – a figment of someone’s imagination Weekly Turkish shows and fireworks – bollocks! It wouldn’t take much to make this a brilliant place, but they obviously don’t want to – they just want your money.

Date of Stay: August, 2008

We stayed here for four days early August and would not under any circumstances go again. The staff are unhelpful, bordering on rude. Pleasant only if they are likely to get some money from you, but ask for help of any kind and the answer was always 'no'. It is actually impossible to walk up the steep hill from the bottom unless you are optimally fit and prepared for a hour and a half of hill climbing in the hot summer sun. Not a problem of course if you have a car. The service bus was unavailable for 3 out of the four days we were there, and with young children and an asthmatic mum in her 60s we felt somewhat trapped. The bus was working but they never seemed to be able to spare the staff to drive it!. Bizarrely on the last day they said we could put our luggage in the service bus to take us to reception for check out, but we had to walk up two steep hills. Why not just allow us to get in the bus as well? Even when we explained our mother was asthmatic, they still said no!!!! They also kindly offer a free delivery service from the supermarket. Great idea except when we asked for items to be delivered there was never anyone available to bring our stuff. Again because the area is hilly, not the easiest thing to do - carrying back shopping in high heat was not fun. I would never recommend this place to anyone and strongly recommend you look elsewhere for your holiday in Turkey. The area of Yalikavak and gumusluk is stunning and has plenty of better villa complexes available. Whilst the properties are lovely and I am sure the owners of the properties are great people, the management and staff running this small complex seem to want to make your holiday as unpleasant as possible. * Only place in the world I know that charges for table tennis. We were also told the airconditioning was £10 a week but mysteriously increased to £15 on checkout. A word of caution, we made the mistake of just letting the man do the inventory on his own (small kids needed attention and with a pool there I could not of course leave them while I counted every item in the house). He made a fair few errors and we were of course charged for these items at checking out time. I know it was my fault for not counting as well but we had looked after the property well and taken great care to leave things as we found them, so we left feeling cheated about having to pay up. The internet cafe is 1 computer in the back of their office. The children's playground is one small slide and a seesaw - etc etc. The description of this complex as seen on their website is no a true representation. Holidaymaker beware!!
