Just got back from the appartments. Initial thoughts were this is going to be good and it was, however the sucess of the holiday was down to the fact that we were a large group of family members and made our own entertainment.

The staff at the hotel were good, with Jake and the owner of the complex coming out well on top in the hospitality stakes. These two guys were nothing short of excellent along with the chef Salumi and Evo.

The remainder of the staff were good but you couldnt help but feel the service you got would of been better if you were aged between 15/18 and were female as this seemed to be their general pursuit.



The maids were brilliant and the food was great in the hotel.

Here is a tip; dont eat at the Happy Inn Chinese on the canal. Its awful and the food is small, cold and expensive. Service is rubbish it was the worst night ever.

We generally found the resort expensive and even the more hardened Turkey visitors of our group said they couldnt believe how much prices had increased and how little the turks on occassions refused to barter.



On the whole would I return to the Kleopatra - yes. this is down to the value for money, its location the cleanliness and the friendliness of Jake and the owner.

Who I must give a big thanks to for all that they did for us.

JUST BACK FROM ICMELER STAYED AT THE KLEOPATRA APARTMENTS ASKED FOR POOL VIEW WHICH WE GOT BUT IT TURNED OUT TO BE THE ATTIC . PLENTY OF ROOM BUT VERY HOT DAY AND NIGHT , AIR CON( £25 PER WK) IN THE BEDROOM BUT NOT IN THE MAIN ROOM WHICH DID CAUSE A PROBLEM SO HARDLY SLEPT FOR THE FIRST WEEK , DID ASK TO BE MOVED THE 2ND DAY AND WAS OFFERED GROUND FLOOR WHICH LOOKED OUT ONTO THE KITCHEN AND SEEMED QUITE DARK SO WE WE REFUSED . APARTMENT WAS BASIC BUT CLEAN AND TOWELS CHANGED MOST DAYS . UNABLE TO GET ROUND THE POOL ALL HOLIDAY AS ALL THE SUNBEDS HAD TOWELS ON THEM BEFORE 8AM EVERY MORNING BUT WE LIKE TO EXPLORE ANYWAY SO IT DID NOT CAUSE A PROBLEM . BOTH IN OUR 60S AND FOUND THE 15 MIN WALK DOWN TO THE CENTRE QUITE A NICE WALK BUT COMING BACK AFTER A LATE MEAL AND A FEW DRINKS IT SEEMED A LONG WAY BACK AND THEN HAD 4 FLIGHTS OF STAIRS TO CLIMB TO APARTMENT

.ICMELERS SCENERY HAS TO BE SEEN ,WENT ON 3 BOAT TRIPS ALL FULL DAY ONES FOR ABOUT £10 TO £15 WITH LUNCH INCLUDED, BUT ALL THE DRINKS ARE EXTRA BUT BE CAREFUL YOU PAY FOR THEM WHEN YOU ARE GETTING OFF THE BOAT OURS CAME TO 71 L ABOUT £35 FOR 3 OF US BUT ALL TRIPS WERE GREAT DAYS OUT AND STILL GOOD VALUE .

WENT TO RHODES FOR THE DAY COST £35 EACH BUT WELL WORTH THE VISIT .

EVERYBODY TOLD US BEFORE WE WENT HOW CHEAP TURKEY WAS BUT WE FOUND IT QUITE DEAR FOR FOOD AND DRINK COMPARED TO SPAIN , BUT NEVER HAD A POOR MEAL, MAYBE IT JUST TURNED OUT THAT WE PICKED THE DEAREST ONES .

WOULD WE ALL GO BACK YES IT WAS A GREAT HOLIDAY IN A GREAT PLACE AND WE ALL LOVED IT , BUT NEXT TIME WOULD MAYBE STAY IN THE TOWN ITSELF AND WOULD THINK ABOUT GOING FULLY INCLUSIVE .

kleopatra apartments are really lovely for the money, but do not go in school hols.they have 32 rooms an have 32 sun beds. (and thats being generous)



imagine 32 rooms X 4 people.



the apartments are really nice, amazingly clean, am utterly unable to fault them. quite expensive for air con. £25 a week,. think the safe is £20 a week but we shared that with our parents. the safe is in the reception area an we often helped ourselves to the master key which is in the bottom right hand corner box at reception. ................



jake is amazing. a credit to the apartments. if you want any assistance go to him or ebo.

and the chef is called salami..............but he's nice too and you really can't beat the foodi n the hotel.

the bar man ali isn't much use unless you're 20ish with boobs!!!!!!!!!but "dennis" the dogsbody is always around and will do all he can do to help.

now we get to mete. the owners son. he's an angel. he works alongside them, all hours of the day. he turned 11 when we were there. he never stops.

and now the karaoke king, mete's dad lol. ( i did it myyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy)

he gave me a shell wind chime before i left. lol



the only downside for this place is the poolside situation. not enough sunbeds. it was 49 in the shade the day we left. its also a good 30 min walk to the beach. downhill. you've gotta do the return journey.....

i can imagine out of school hols that this place is fantastic, the first week for us was brill, 2nd week we were gutted.

£3500 on a hol an you can't even get a sunbed.

we feel it was money wasted.

No delays at all, the flights were great with Thomsonfly. Kleopatra apartments were very clean, the staff were exceptional and made us feel like one of the family, the food was excellent and of good variety.

We enjoyed staying in Icemeler, it is quieter than Marmaris but you can get to Marmaris by bus in 10minutes, we also used a taxi boat which takes longer, but is nice and relaxing and is nice to travel over the sea.

We went on a couple of boat trips which were great and we could take swim breaks in the sea, the food and drink were included in the price so shop around and get the best deal.

The best day for us was the jeep safari which was fantastic and such a good laugh, we were soaking wet for the whole day so put cameras etc into plastic bags so they don't get ruined. There is a procession of jeeps and everyone has water pistols, there is a little off roading and a visit to a waterfall and wishing tree. We got on very well with other tourists on this trip and this made it even more fun, thanks everyone!

We mainly ate at our apartment the Kleopatra and The Redlion pub & Restaurant, the food there is lovely. The Red Lion is great and the staff are friendly and fun and will also take you back to your apartment when you're ready to leave. We got to know them all very well and had lots of fun in there. The staff work very hard and put on shows such as Michael Jackson, Eric's bartender show, folk dancing and Ahmet will do some belly dancing if you ask him. We also saw the new drag show which was good fun. We spent 2 weeks in Icemeler and could have stayed longer.

There are many bars and we were made welcome in all of them, Melissa, Friends, Cupids, Florida, Sylvias, Friends there are so many to choose from.

We took some turkish Lira, English currency and used the cash machine, we did spend alot of money but we ate out all the time and went on trips, and went out every night until the early hours of the morning.

Eric and Bruce from the Red Lion took us clubbing in Marmaris, this was a fantastic night, one that we wont forget, Eric looked after us and took us back to Icemeler at 4am, nothing is too much trouble, Turkey is lovely and the people are great. Can't wait to go back.

We were expecting to be hassalled but did not find this to be a problem in Icemeler, Marmaris is alot busier and great for people who like somewhere with alot of life.

Myself and my family and friends stayed at the kleopatra in may, there were 11 of us in total.



we had a brilliant time, the weather was red hot, even the evenings were warm. we were really impressed with the apartments and would stay here again, without a doubt. The staff cant do enough for you, they are all so friendly. The maids came in every day, and apartments were kept spotless.



The food at the apartments was brilliant, and not expensive. After reading some reports on these apartments, we thought we would have to struggle with no hot water, but we never had any problems with water, what ever the time of day.



The apartments are huge, and the blaconies huge too. The location is fine if you dont mind walking into the town for about 10-15 minitues, however the manager was brilliant and he used to take us in is car, and didnt charge us anything.



The family who run this are amazing, even the children are lovely. All the staff are superb and are a credit to the manager, no wonder people go back year after year. We would definatley go back too.



If i had to fault it, it would be very hard too, as there isnt anything to complain about, we had a great holiday, and if you go you wouldnt be dissapointed.



HAPPY HOLIDAY

We have been staying at the Kleopatra every year, sometimes twice, since 2002. The apartments are lovely and clean, cleaners come in daily, the staff are wonderful and friendly and always make guests feel very welcome. The apartments are about 15 minutes walk from the street and up a bit of a hill for the last 5 minutes so maybe not too suitable for older people or people with difficulty getting around but being away from the centre of the resort means its quiet at night. We're heading back there in May and again in September and wouldn't consider staying anywhere else.

My husband, myself and our son are just back from ICEMELER we had a wonderful holiday. The apartment was basic, but very clean. The staff were all happy and friendly. We went on the boat trip it lasted all day and was very enjoyable. We went to the Turkish night at the apartment on the Saturday, it was an enjoyable night with nice atmosphere.



We only went to Turkey for 1 week so there was not enough time to do all the things that we wanted to do. The only thing that we found annoying was the pestering every time we passed shops and restaurants. But we would certainly love to go back, it is a beautiful place surrounded by mountains.

Basic yet clean apartments. No hot water available in the morning and only once at night.



Staff fairly friendly, I requested quiet room and ended up at the back of the apartments next to chickens and cockerels and all night long they were so loud and we also had a generator outside our room, so sadly we didn’t get much sleep.



Beach is about 15 mins walk and market about 3 mins walk. I wouldn’t go back to these apartments as I found them slightly too far away from where we would have liked to have been and a little to basic for us, alright for a cheap holiday.

First time for us to Turkey and we were so pleased with our choice.



The rooms were spotless and spacious and everyone was very helpful and friendly.



Our balcony over looked the pool and we had a fantastic view of the surrounding area.



The only negative point was that there was not enough entertainment in the evenings.



All of the staff were fantastic especially Selo. We will definitely go back and would recommend Kleopatra to everyone.



We would also highly recommend the jeep Safari excursion that can be booked as it was a whole day of fun for all of us.

Just back from Kleopatra apts and what a fantastic time we had! Would recommend Kleopatra to everyone!



Apts were basic but extremely roomy and spotless. Good sized swimming pool 160cm deep and plenty of free cushioned sunbeds also small shallow pool for kids .Staff couldn't be faulted very friendly and helpful, bent over backwards to help.



Food available all day and a good variety was available -'kleopatra chicken baguette' not to be missed! Turkish night at apts kept us all amused and well fed -definitely worth small charge. Kleopatra is a short walk into resort good for burning off those extra cal’s eaten at all the fab restaurants which are all fairly priced many offer free taxi service to and from apts.



Situation excellent for people who wish to relax and spend time with loved ones rather than late night partying! Another bonus of these apts is the 2 minute walk to Wednesday market. We have made lots of new friends and will definitely return to kleopatra in the future.



Visited aqua dream park in Marmaris and what a fun day out cost us about £24 for 2 adults and 1 child incl transfers.
