Akfen Club Hotel, Kusadasi

Advantages: beach - food - clean - what more do you want
Disadvantages: None

...We stayed at this hotel in April and had the most fantastic time there. The hotel was clean and always being cleaned. The staff were really friendly and would do anything to help you. The evening entertainment was great fun - much the same after two weeks but they tried hard to please you and see what you wanted. The food was really good - lots of choice for meat eaters and vegetarians. The restaurant and the snack bar were open when we were there and they were both very good. Swimming pools were checked each day - temperature and chlorine monitored. The beach just down from the hotel was really clean - unfortunately you could only get to the sea by going down a ladder at the edge. Games were played each day by the pool and on the beach. kids club was great fun. Excellent hotel.... Read review

Advantages: Beach, sun, restaurants, main town
Disadvantages: (only sometimes) the people

...STAND YOUR GROUND WITH THEM. They have the power of persuasion to make you buy a chocolate teapot . Thats how persuasive they can be. But besides the people, well Kusadasi has it all. Remember though, there is a a cross ferry that takes you to the greek island of Samos where you can have a good day out but to be honest, Kusadasi has everything samos has. If you ever get bored, there are plenty of nearby towns which often have weekly markets. You can find these out from your hotel/appartments. In Ladies Beach, we stopped in Ponz Villas. This is a very nice resort for all the family to have fun. So for your next holiday, go to Ladies Beach and you will have a whale of a time.... Read review

Advantages: something for everyone
Disadvantages: the shopkeepers and stallholders who hassle you incessantly

...Kusadasi is a tourist-dependant large town/small city on the south western coast of Turkey. It is about an hour and a half's drive from the nearest airport at Dalaman, and is very lively and friendly, with plenty of things on offer to occupy your time. There are many hotels and villas in Kusadasi, with prices that range for all budgets. The hotels there tend to be quite big and the rooms and apartments are average-sized. Because tourism is such a vital part of the economy there, everything is fairly close together, and the hotels are packed with people. This can sometimes be slightly claustrophobic, but it's not that bad and you get used to it. Kusadasi itself is a bustling place, with a market held every day late into the night, and special clothes markets on certain days, such as Fridays and Saturdays. These markets are very cheap...
