The Tuncay apartments were really lovely. There are only 8 of them (1 being occupied by the owners/manager) They are two blocks of 4 either side of the swimming pool and bar area, which were kept clean and tidy at all times. The pool area was very attractive with settees in the shade and enough sun loungers. The pool was a good size for a small apartment complex, it included a small children's pool which my son too full advantage of even in October.
The balconies of the apartments are huge running almost the whole circumference of the apartment. With the most amazing views.

The family who manage the apartments are really nice people, willing to help with anything that you need. There was always someone around to assist you.

The location of the apartments is spectacular in the old village about 10 mins walk from the center of town (it's a nice walk as well) Surrounded by the mountains. It surprises me that there are few pictures of this area to be seen as in my opinion it is by far the most attractive part of Icmeler.

There was no entertainment at the apartments, which wasn't a problem for me.
I am very much looking forward to returning to these apartments in July 2006. Keeping my fingers crossed I get the same apartment. It was such a fantastic atmosphere a really beautiful place to visit.

Arrived at the Tuncay Apartments 09/08/05 at around 00.30, we was a little late due to a delay at Manchester, we was greeted by Mustafa, Fatama, Kevin and Maria. We were a little hungry so Fatama cooked us some Chip's and a Omelette excellent service considering this was early hours of the morning.

The rooms were spacious and very clean, we was really made up with them.

Mustafa showed us to our Apartment which was above his, from the Balcony we had great views of the Mountains, with the Efem Apartments straight in front of us and to the right was the Dost Restaraunt and Bar which was next door but1 very handy indeed.

From the side of our Apartment we overlooked the Farm.

I have given Hotel Staff a mark of 3 which really is a bit unfair but the reason for this is because, on Wednesday 10th Mustafa had organised a BBQ and Belly Dancer. The cost was

We arrived at about 4pm and were greeted by Mustafa who helped with our cases. Our apartment was ideal. Situated on the ground floor and overlooking the pool. There was a large balcony area which stretched right along the front and side of the apartment. The beds were comfortable and the main bedroom air conditioned.

One thing that stands out about our stay was the hospitality shown to us by Mustafa, his family and friends. One morning they insisted on me joining them for breakfast and often offered me a seat at their table near the pool, so friendly. We were treated like we were long lost friends. Mustafa gave us lifts on a number of occasions and even took me up the mountain with his dog Tommy one morning at 7a.m. The views up there were outstanding.

We all enjoyed the Turkish night when the belly dancer did turn up and we were also entertained by other members of Mustafa

We stayed at the Tuncay apartments for two weeks, and had a wonderful holiday.

They're owned and run by Mustafa and Fatma, ably helped by their daughter (married 2 months) Fikriye, who came each day. There are two blocks, on either side of the swimming pool, each with four apartments. The apartments are large, with beautiful balconies. We love to have a nice balcony, I love nothing better than sitting either early or late in the sun on a balcony - here I was spoiled for choice - I had THREE! There was a small one (although it was bigger than most Turkey balconies) leading from our bedroom, which was red hot each morning. Then one led from the french doors from the living room overlooking 'the farm' (see later!) and this led to the one overlooking the main street,where we sat with our friends each evening playing dominoes, having a drink, and being amused by the comings and goings (a man taking his goat for a walk at midnight, and another man driving his car up the street with his dog on a lead held through the window!)
The second two were lovely big balconies.

'The farm' was a piece of land tended by an older Turkish lady who had a cow and calf and various crops. We loved watching.

The apartment had a large kitchen, I have to say totally unused other than the fridge for drinks, but it led to the nice spacious feel.
The living room had two very comfortable sofa beds, oh and the biggest room safe you ever did see!

The pool area was quiet when we were there, there was never a towel race, but that may have been due to the very pleasant people staying there when we were.

Mustafa and Fatma organised a bbq/belly dancer evening our first week, and because there were only 7 apartments, it meant we all got to know each other in a pleasant atmosphere, we all had a great night. Fatma's food was wonderful.

Mustafa, Fatma and Fikriye are so friendly and welcoming, I felt from the word go that I was staying with friends rather than staying in apartments. Each afternoon if we were by the pool, Fatma would come round with some little treat, pistachio nuts, popcorn, fruit, wafer biscuits. We were often asked to join the family for Turkish tea or coffee.

Their family would call to see them and never leave without saying hello to us, and if we saw their family elsewhere in the town they welcomed us as friends - in fact Mustafa and Fatma took us in their car to see her sisters apartments, which our daughter may be visiting later in the year.

We booked a trip and needed to walk down to the tour operator at 7 one morning. Mustafa appeared and insisted on taking us in his car. The apartments are about a 20 minute walk from the front, I'd say - the Dolmus runs past but we only used it once.

There are quite a few bars, restaurants and shops very close-by, but we enjoyed the walk down to town each evening, passing the 'gardens' where locals grew various things and kept chickens.

Can you tell we loved our holiday???
We're busy checking flights for next year.

I had finished my degree 2 weeks before I was going on holiday which meant that I wanted a peaceful rest so that I could relax after 3-years of HARD SLOG!!!!

The Tuncay apartments appealed to me because they were small and away from the noise. My only concern was that I was taking my 6-year old twin daughters with me and I was worried that they may get bored somewhere quiet.

My concerns were short-lived - from the moment we arrived in Turkey our every need was catered for.

Firstly from the entirely professional, friendly team from Icmeler Online who saw that we arrived at the Tuncay Apartments swiftly and safely, and then from our host family who run the apartments.

Mustafa and his family are nothing short of amazing, their concern for your welfare throughout your holiday is truly genuine.

The apartments are cleaned on a regular basis and are larger than many I have stayed in before with 2 single beds in the bedroom, and a double and single pull out bed in the front room. The balconies are very large and are fantastic for sipping wine and eating Fatma's (Mustafa's wife) amazing barbecues.

The pool was never used so my daughters thought it was their very own. They loved every minute and would have spent their whole holiday playing at the apartments if they could. On the rare occassion they got fed up with the pool they opened the gates to the apartments and walked straight into one of the resort's many well equipped children's playgrounds.

For those of you with children who are slightly concerned about staying at the Tuncay because there is no entertainment for the kids - don't worry!!! As with most resorts in Turkey, holiday makers are encouraged to use the facilities in other apartments and hotels, including the larger family hotels.

The apartments were perfect for our purposes. They were about a 10- minute stroll away from the centre of the resort. We walked down to the town but found it easier to catch the local dolmus back (they run constantly).

For those of you who prefer smaller apartment complexes, the Tuncay apartments come highly recommended!

Our holiday exceeded our expectations due to the warm welcome and the nothing is too much trouble attitude of everyone at Icmeleronline and Mustafa and his family who run the Tuncay apartments.

The apartments are very spacious and four of the eight apartments overlook the sparkling swimming pool and have the sun all afternoon until it sets behind the mountain which is a backdrop to the apartments.

The Balconies are huge which meant we could sit in the sun for hours on end if we so wished and we did on many an afternoon and into the evening.

With the Tuncay being in a very quiet area it meant we could have a nice relaxing and quiet day if we wanted and more importantly a peacefull sleep yet it is only a 7 minute walk or or a 2 minute bus ride to the centre of town and the numerous bars and restaurants where we were entertained each night.

We would not hesitate in reccomending the Tuncay apartments to other holiday makers and when we return to Turkey and to Icmeler we will certainly insist on returning to the Tuncay apartments and to Mustafa and his lovely family.

We also have no hesitation in recommending John Toohey and Rami at Icmeleronline who organised our holiday for us and look forward to meeting them again in the not too distant future.
