I´m sure all of us who know Trudy miss her from the site. She has recently had quite a serious operation on her back but is now on the road to recovery. She wants to spend a week relaxing (unlike her but necessary unfortunately) in Turkey end October/beginning of November. She is looking for an All-Inclusive hotel with spa facilities, quite close to local facilities (she can´t walk far at the moment).

I will quote some of her message to me:



´Let me explain more what I look for: a hotel with an elevator, spa facilities in hotel or in town, it doesn´t have to be all-inn but if not it must be really near restaurants´



´I think I will be able to do much more than now but I think also I must not go head over heals; also a city/place with things to see/do, like museums because i´m not the beach type´



´a few bars would be nice but a real bar sokak is not what i need´



´and maybe the possibility of making not too much tiring excursions´




She doesn´t want much does she!! ´lol´



Anyway - anyone got any good ideas? Unfortunately the only All-inclusive´s near me are a bit far out of town for her I think.

Not sure where Trudy wants to go but I got a recommendation for this hotel:

http://www.hotelaqua.com/

Someone from my family stayed here and they enjoyed it.

Best Wishes for Trudy.

Now I´m back I can bump this one myself!

Anyone else who has ideas because the ones given were not exactly what I´m looking for. I found a nice place in Turgutreis (Hotel La Blanche) but I´d like to have some choice. Thanks for your help in advance.

I know there is one or two in Bitez. I have just been there for a week. It is a peaceful town, and easy to get around if you have mobility problems. The hotel I am thinking about is right on the beach front, and the dolums stop nearby. I will try and find out about it and let you know.

Maybe Caliptrix. A new word (which I´ll use very much in the near future) will be: tembelim! lol

Welcome back, Trudy! Good to have you come back here.

I once stayed in a hotel in Cesme, which I will highly recommend.
1.There is spa service. Rates are good.
2.There is elevator.
3.There is an indoor thermal pool which I think would be good for you when you visit in October.
4.They offer all inclusive full boarding accommodation. I am sure they may have half board even in the fall or winter season. Live and soft music will be played during dinner time. Food is excellent. They serve out-from-the-oven bread and turkish pizza in every meal!
5.A 5 to 10 minute walking distance to the town center is also good for you. It is peaceful and relaxing in the neighbourhood. No hassle. Not too many bars. Nice restaurants along the waterfront. There are dolmus services going to little towns like Ilica, Alacati.

Sounds good, right?

Sounds good, Ninja, but what is the name? There are so many hotels.

Oops, sorry, I was looking for the name card of the manager there, thinking that I may ask for a better rate for you if you like. I just looked up the rate shown in a travel agency, it´s 60 euros in winter time, it´s half board and it´s rated five star. Very good rate already.

The name is Piril Hotel Thermal and Beauty Spa.
www.pirilhotel.com


p.s. I just noted that the rate of October is 75 euro, all inclusive, meaning all drinks and Turkish wine, raki, etc are free until midnight. I enjoyed this when I was there. Beware not to get drunk.

Thanks Ninja for this information. I will check the hotel but I think it is quite expensive comparing to package deals (including flight from Amsterdam plus transfer) here in The Netherlands. Maybe I can find that hotel through one of the touroperators here, I´ll Google it.

Yeah Trudy, I think there are flight and hotel packages. I met one German couple there. They went there for holidays every year. They told me they paid about 750 euro for one person, including flight from Hamburg and 2 weeks accommodation in that hotel. That was in May. I think better deal will be available in Fall.
Good Luck!

Aenigma whatever, I am NOT defending your rights. You´re just a good example (who else here can you find leaving x times and returning x times?)

Ahh canim it is no good trying to protest - you have a crush on me

Well...actually I DID ask for my original aenigma to be restored (after Erdinc deleted me!) - this was about 200 aenigma´s ago, but I was told it was not possible - so since then I have created more new identities than Madonna - just for the hell of it lol

May I suggest a few for you?

Actually I was trying to set my nick as "si" but didn´t work (at least 3 is required) hence si++. But I wouldn´t ask to be deleted in the first place if I were to come back later.
