Try Thomas Cook, I've found them the cheapest.

Unless you have young children or the elderly, it's well worth booking the sea-view rooms.

They are away for the main hotel & up a steep slope, BUT the views are pretty & it's nice & quite up there.

I think it's well worth it.

The staff at this hotel are FANTASTIC. It's a nice place, but they make it extra special.

If you got any more questions, give me a shout.

Try Thomas cook web site & First Choice as well.

If you are always poping back to your rooms the distance might drive you mad to the sea-view rooms.
Also I think the standard rooms are on the small side & the sea-views are bigger, but hell how much time do you spend in you room on holiday anyway.

Are you all in the one room then or do you book two rooms?

There are two tiny pools & a limited bar with the sea-view rooms, but you gotta trek to the main site for everything else?

Def, try pricing it with ALL the companies that go there, have you tried Portland as well, they can be cheap too.

You will really like it, have your Turkish bath as soon as you get there, at the hotel next door (& have the rose oil massage afterwards)

PS be careful of your baggage weight, we got stung for £50 on our return through Dalaman.

They didn't weigh my hand bag, but they did my sisters!!

Her & her husband got stung for £35!

Hi Nicole :D

Haven't been myself, but we were on a trip this summer and I spoke to a couple who were staying there and they were really enjoying it.

I tried to get a look around it but security stopped me, when they saw I was wearing the wrong (ie BB) wristband. I was actually quite impressed by this as I'm never sure they are checking.

It looked really pretty, nice gardens, with flowers and bouganvillia everywhere. Just IMHO but I do check alot of prices and I would say 2600 for 4 in the August school holidays is a good price for this hotel assuming the deal is AI.

Looking at the Olu Deniz Resort hotel for summer.

I'm sure I read somewhere that they were planning to build another (much needed) pool over last winter.

Does anyone know if it actually happened ?

Can see anything on the news section.

take a look

Someone on another forum has asked the hotel direct, and apparently the new additional pool is finished.

Having stayed here for the last two years, I see this year they have become ultra inclusive for the 2007 season.

Can anyone report back as to what has been added from last year ??

Lot's of talk and rumours, but yet to hear from anyone that has visited ??

Thanks :lol:

Hi bartman...... i too would be interested in this new concept of ultra all inclusive....what doe's it mean from the normal all inclusive.....we go in september so look forward to any reports as well......thanks Gavin 8)

We are going ultra AI but to the Larespark- again don't really know how it differs to any other decent AI. The name suggests it should be better but I don't know how :?

I'm not 100% but I think it might mean that motorised watersports are included.
I think I read somewhere that they are getting LCD TV's (but then again I could be talking rubbish there, LOL).
Mind you who's sad enough to watch TV on holiday, oh yes my TV addict hubby, lol.

Look forward to your report, I was there last year, when it was normal AI.
Great place, it's a four star & while I think the Aegean Dream Resort Hotel 5 star was fab, I think the Olu Deniz Resort Hotel is a little better for actual food served.

I think for this hotel it means 24 hour allinc,some international brands and some cocktails

I agree I think it will mean 24 hour and international brands of alcohol. But you need to check with TO or the hotel.
