This is the first time for us as a family staying at the Julian Forest, and would have to say absolutely a fabulous place, The cleanliness of this accomodation is 10/10. We found all of the staff very frienldy and helpful. The entertainment team were great our kids who are aged 12 and 9 thought it was there best holiday ever.The location of Julian Forest is in the old village which is a little way from the town. Not a problem as there is the local dolmus outside the complex which runs every 15 mins to take you into the town and only costs 1ytl which is 40p. I would recommend this rather than getting a taxis as the taxis drivers are a bit mad on the roads. I would say the dolmus is a lot safer. There was only one fault we found with staying here is that they only supply you with one toilet roll then you have to buy your own. That has not put us off as we have booked again 3 weeks next year.

we have stayed at these apartments for the last 4 years and they just get better every year.The apartments are very clean and are always kept this way if there is anything you need all you have to do is ask the food is excellent and the flexi dine is well worth the money also if you get this and by the end of your holiday you still know that your meals r paid for and they are excellent. The julian forest is up in the hills but we found this much better as it was quieter and there was a dolmus just outside than run every 15mins into icemeler or marmaris.If you fancy a ride into marmaris during the day then go down into icemeler to the beach and get a taxi boat it is great and so much better than being cramped up on the bus. The staff are absoutely fantastic nothing is to much trouble for them and they will do everything to make your stay perfect.also the entertainment staff are just the same nothing is to much trouble and they get everyone joining in we love these apartments and r going back next year because we know we get value for money. So keep up the good work guys and look forward to seeing you in 2008. love to you all x x x

Reception
Took 3 days to sort out ant problem we had
Had to get rep involved before problem solved
Also shower head holder broken asked for it to get fixed
Not fixed when I left 6/10
Changing money at reception was just the same rate as going
In to icmeler take English pounds and they will give you better
Rate 2.6 ytl to the pound
Bar
Drink were ok watch got charge as much for lime in a beer as I did for the beer Meals were very good every thing comes with chips 9/10
Great water slides plus adult pool very clean. 10/10
I was in room 4201 top floor kids in room 4203
The two draw backs were the heat from the roof kept the rooms very hot all the time and the air con is only in the bedroom also
We got a lot of noise at night as the lift is next door
[Best to get a room on lower floors]away from lifts

I visited the Julian Forest between 04/06 and 11/06/07.
The whole complex is kept very clean and is in an immaculate condition.
The apartments are cleaned daily and the bed linen changed twice in the week.
Although the board is self catering the Julian Forest operates a flexi-dine alternative. I purchased a 4 day flexi-dine for

This has got to be the most beautiful hotel i have ever stayed at.
The journey from the airport was a bit of a nightmare but once you arrived into the hotel foyer you could do nothing but admire the cleanliness of it.
After reading reviews before we went i was wary of all the wasps around our baby and also for our room not to be too close to the bar.
To our horror our room was on the ground floor right next to the bar but decided to leave for the night as we were all tired from the travelling.
Contrary to reports that we had read about the noise coming from the bar area on a night, it is not bad at all we are light sleepers and it didnt wake us or the baby.
The wasps and there are a few are a nuisance at times but they are not as bad as was reported and should definitly not put you off coming to this beautiful hotel.
The staff were really friendly and they try to help you as much as they possibly can and are always on hand whatever time.
The food was absolutely fantastic could not have any complaints and we bought the flexi-dine which in the long run is well worth it for the food quality you get.
The entertainments team were good always joking around trying to make you enjoy your stay, with there killer pool, bingo and water polo during the days there is always something to do no matter your age. Well done to DJ, Compo and Jimmy for doing a great job and keeping everyone happy.
Overall this was a fantastic holiday and everything about it was great and we have already looked at going back the same time next year.

We had a fantastic time at the resort. The resort was well located as we were looking for a relaxing time with the kids. They had a ball and so did we as the entertainment staff Compi, DJ, Jimmy, and Esra were brilliant with the kids and us.
The flexi dine was great value for money and the food was brill (t-bone steaks to pasta) every night and they also have really good kids meals.
We really would recommend you to go there if you have not been we will definately go next year again.

We stayed in the Julian Forest for the first time this year and cannot fault it at all.
The wee one had a ball as she went on the flumes in and out the pool it was great.
The supermarket was not very well stocked and I would advise using the supermarket in Icmeler for anything you need, but that is the only thing I would say.
The staff were all very friendly and especially Haluk behind the bar and Hasan in the resturant. The kitchen was spotless and you could sit and watch them making your dinner it was brilliant.
We are going back next year and have even talked my in laws into going with us.

This has been the best holiday that we have ever been on.
I wasn't really keen to go to Turkey but I am glad I did as we met some really nice people there.
The hotel was absolutely beautiful and the staff could not do enough for you.
The food was terrific and the menu was great, a lot to choose from.
The kids really enjoyed it, they got involved with the sports during the day and they met friends there. Our favourite waiter was Apo, he is fantastic and really made our holiday one we will never forget. If you're reading this Apo we hope you still have the football shirt that we gave you. Also Adnan the waiter was great fun too. Also our friends Alan, Annemarie, Kayne, Ellis and Rhys from Liverpool. Hope to see you soon.

We were allocated Julian Forest Hotel on arrival in Turkey. Despite a long journey to be dropped at the hotel, it was worth the wait.
The hotel is clean, has all the facilities you would look for (even a hairdresser!) Staff are helpful and friendly as were the airtours reps.
Although being slightly further from the beach than most other hotels, it's only a 5 minute dolmus ride to Icmeler beach and 10 minutes to Marmaris which only costs 30/50p. A taxi back at night only costs
