This was the 3rd time we have stayed in the Alvaro and the 2nd time we have went DIY. What can I say another wonderful holiday yet again all the staff were very helpful.
We stayed in the old family house which was spotless.
The staff on reception were only to happy to help in any way they could always treating people with respect which was the same for all the staff.
We ate most days round the pool and always found the food and the service to be of a very high standard. At night we ate 3 times at their restaurant food here was very good.
While staying here this year our daughter who has Downs Syndrome took ill and had to go to hospital thankfully it was only a chest infection but the owner took us to the hospital stayed with us the whole time, insuring that we knew what was going on and then brought us back again. This took up most of the day for him as she had to have various tests we can't thank him enough for his kindness but then again we have always found that with both his wife and also himself. This is one of the reasons we keep going back, the other is the staff and they way they also treat our daughter,they are very patient with her and treat all of us like family.
Will we be going back again of course we will have already booked again for next year. We had booked before we even went on this years holiday.

We stayed at the Alvaro for 10 nights, it was our first visit to Turkey.
The apartments are basic but clean, if you intend to cook for yourselves I think it would be quite difficult as there was only a two ring hob similar to a camping hob, no kettle, or toaster and no dining chairs or table to eat at. I would say it was more like a room only basis. The rooms were quite small, it was OK for us with two young children but wouldn't fancy it with teenages or four adults sharing.
The pool area was nice and clean and the slide was great for kids and adults. Food around the bar area was good.
There was no entertainment but maybe this was due to time of year.

The villa that we stayed in was lovely, we had maid service every day and it was spotlessly clean. Nothing was ever too much trouble, the staff were very friendly and because we go every year the staff always remember you.

I have been going to Turkey for many years now. This was the first hotel I stayed at and this is the last hotel I have stayed at.
I have been to others but for the next couple years I will keep going back here!
The pool is good and the staff are lovely I will be going back in September this year. Cant wait to see everyone again. I spent a lot of time at Venice/Dreamboys/Three Bells and some others as well food is excellent in most places. When I go back there will be 11 of us!
The beach is a good place to spend a lot of time but boat trips are great if you want a lazy day out!
I like going to the market as well. Cant wait to go back.

This is an exellent hotel and with by far the best staff. Marcos and the rest were very friendly to us and we would not hesitate in returning to stay and say hello to everyone again. The Alvaro had great entertainment every night and was very clean with the best food in Icmeler.
