I've just found my password so this is later than I'd intended. We missed 2015 which was the first time we hadn't been since 1989. We were so excited it seemed like a new resort ! Although we had stayed at Manas before in 2014 it had some minor changes which included a snack bar with home made pides a welcome addition to the food choices. The staff hadn't changed and were still pleasant and welcoming. It's amazing what a difference 2 years make. Our place was sold at Christmas and it's nice to arrive and not have to start making the place home again. Although the things I miss about it are many! I wouldn't go and look at it! Shaun did and he said it looked lovely. Although it was the right thing to do and I'm glad we sold, I did love the place.
The journey from Dalaman seemed over in such a short time and I'm still amazed by the turn off from the Dalaman road into calis which sees us there in minutes ? Can't work it out. The resort itself was just as fab as ever. Quiet, but then for early June that seemed about right. We were AI. However in 10 days we ate in the hotel 4 nights. The restaurants on the prom have changed over time and we now don't get hassled any more . We're not known any more! So we ate over the bridge. We never eat over the bridge!! But we liked the look of the refurbished mangal. It was super. Slick service and lovely food. Huge portions. Dare I say too big! But at any rate, good food. We also ate at Frank Cannons. Well we'd been on Sukrus boat that day and the lunch was phenomenal so we fancied a late kebab that night rather than the full mashings! We ate once at Buzz in Olu Deniz- gorgeous as always. We had a fabulous evening at the Yacht classic. Memorable. Hardly pioneers but we discovered Mosaic Bache! Omg, loved it. So much we went twice! So that's our 10 nights. We had a chilled, relaxed hols. We remembered why we fell in love with the the place all those years ago and we will return.
