Here we sit in the evening sun, sipping an ice cold gin and tonic looking across to the pretty Turkish bay of Selimiye watching the local fisherman as they come in from their day...
A truly quality addition in chic Gocek
Ever since our Tapestry days we’ve always had a soft spot for the lovely little resort of Gocek. Only 30 minutes from Dalaman airport this chic marina town has always attracted not only the well healed ‘yachting’ crowd but also the more ‘discerning’ Turkofile. With only a handful of hotels...
Our Transfers in Turkey…quality guaranteed.
The problem with most transfers in Turkey is that they can be a little on the long side. Transfers to the Asfiya Sea View or Likya Residence and Spa in Kalkan from Dalaman, for example, are about 1 hour and 30 minutes and that’s with a car. If you’re on...
Another great reason to visit Kalkan in Turkey
Blowing my own trumpet with some suppliers this morning I was banging on about how close to 80% of our guests rebook their holidays with us. It’s an amazingly high number and if I’m totally honest it’s down to the quality of product that we have to offer. Our service...

The Turkish Lira is now at an exchange rate of 3.9 to the Pound!……a massive drop of 40% from last summer’s rates when it hovered around the 2.8 mark to the pound. This means that your hard earned sterling is going to buy you so much more in the resorts...

A terribly short history of hotels in Turkey
When we first sent guests to Turkey, way back in 1988, the accommodation that we provided tended to be located in the more unspoilt resorts of Olu Deniz, Kalkan, and Kas. The accommodation consisted of very simple ‘Pansiyons’ or guest houses. Often these were converted farmers houses or even stables...
