Stayed at these apartments after booking them in 2005 when we were on holiday in Icmeler. We were not disappointed. Excellent value for money - apartments adequate for all your needs. Welcome pack on arrival, much appreciated. Pool excellent and get the sun all day.

You could get a sunbed whatever time of day you arrived at pool.

The food in the restaurant cannot be faulted. But the best think about these apartments are the staff. They do what they can to make sure you have a good holiday and Christine was very helpful. My daughter's boyfriend was taken ill at the start of the second week and everyone was very helpful. Have already booked to go back next year!!

What can I say, but hey, these apartments are some of the best we have stayed in.

After placing an appeal on the Turkey forum here a few weeks ago, a couple of people recommended these new apartments. I asked for an apartment in Icmeler that was:

Well we didn't believe it when Christine and Ramazan said last year they were going to modernise the old dilapidated building which sat behind the Travellers Rest Restaurant but blimey, we could hardly believe the transformation.

It sits nicely in the middle of Icmeler, in a great location for getting on to the canal or the main street, it's also close to Tansas and a very nice fruit and vegetable merchants so it's dead convenient.

The apartments are self catering as you would expect but on arrival we had a welcome pack which included water, milk tea bags and coffee which was a nice touch until we could get for some supplies. The apartment consisted of a kitchen area housing a kettle, toaster, two ring cooker and fridge. There were very basic eating implements (one or two complaints about having only 3 plates etc) but that didn't bother us as we had no real intention of cooking anyway, the kettle and the mugs were the most important to us, however, we did ask for more pillows and within an hour they were there so if your short of anything, just ask. There was a separate shower room housing all the usual and a bedroom which was air conditioned (extra). In the sitting room area there is a sofa which can be made into another bed so the apartment will in fact sleep 4. There is plenty of storage space, we had a large wardrobe which had two drawers at the bottom and a shelf at the top, a dressing table with a large drawer and a bedside cabinet with storage space and a drawer, there was also a small cabinet in the sitting room area so theres plenty to go at. If you get room 405, there are also loads of coat hangers as I left mine there!

We were fortunate to have one of the rooms which had two balconies, one front and one back. The one on the back had a table and chairs and the one on the front was quite small but could house a chair if you'd like to sit and read although it is a bit noisy with the traffic and we did notice this at night but after the first couple of nights we got used to it.

The lady came in every day to clean, the apartments are very clean and tidy and our towels were changed on every 3rd day (every other day would perhaps suit me more but that may change in the future).

The pool area was kept lovely and clean and we saw the staff religiously cleaning down when everyone had gone in, this cleaning also included the mattresses!

There is a bit of entertainment in the pool bar and to give Christine her due, it is the first season and she's got to test the water and maybe find something alternative to the dancing on the bar, break dancers and Michael Jackson shows - there is an adjoining restaurant which serves great food and the staff in there, particularly Mehment and Ibo (and can't forget Jack and Pete in the pool bar who are extremely helpful), are a good laugh and keep people entertained. There were posters advertising BBQ and Rocking Ken (60's music etc)and midweek by the pool bar there is Karaoke for those of you who daren't go to Deniz Kapezi and would like a quieter try to see if you are the next Elvis - that was fun, they couldn't get me off once I started, I'm practising for next year seeing as we've booked again for June and October!

In my opinion it was great value for money and good old fashioned Yorkshire welcome.

This hotel is aboslutely fantastic, the best holiday I have ever been on in my life. And I have had some great holidays. We arrived at Christines and were amazed to find how lovely and clean the apartments were (compared to other's in Icmeler). The staff are really great and funny. They are so helpful and friendly, all you have to do is ask and they help you.

The pool is beautiful, always clean and cool on them extremely hot days. We had such a laugh with Jack and Pete at the pool, they are great entertainment for this kids. And not forgettin of course Ebo and Mahmet from the resturant, they are so funny. We had water fights with them all day every day. It was such a laugh. The whole family had a great time. Everyone there are so entertaining and friendly, I miss them all now.

The food is excellent, and a good price. We found it was the nicest english food, and the cheapest. Try Christine's chip shop for good old english fish and chips, which was also beautiful.

I really don't know how to put into words how fantastic this holiday really was, we have booked again to go in May 2006. We had such a great time everyone loved it. I can't wait to see them all again, Jack, Pete,Ebo, Mahmet, Ferrit, Narbi I love all of you, and not forgetting Christine and Ramazan, keep up the good work! Love Beth x x x

My family go to Icmeler every year and have been to Christines restaraunt on many occasions. We had booked with bar owner of another restaraunt on first night of arrival couldnt believe what he had put us in.

Next day saw chris said she had opened up her own apartment went and had a looked at it within 10 min we had flitted to Christines we were one of the first families to stay at these apartments. She had a travel cot for my little one welcome pack brill pool really nice, and staff out off this world Jan and Dave who ran it for Chris couldnt have been more helpful.

Apartments are within reach of everything local supermarket on your door step and local Wednesday market just round the corner. Resteraurnt does good food at good prices Sunday lunch out of this world, to say you are in a foreign country.

Entertainment well when we were there I would say it was my dad and Christine round the bar true Yorkshire woman.

Will be back there again soon had to laugh when you are leaving, lads from restaraunt come out with a drum and start banging on it as you are leaving. Myself and my mother shed plenty of tears leaving the apartments hope to see them all soon.

If you want a good holiday at good prices and clean apartment could not recommend this place enough when you go say Hi to Chris from Lisa and Raf and that we will see her soon.
