Has Calis lost its appeal?

Strikes me the whole of the area is going to drown soon  under a million tons of plastic bags,bottles and cardboard!



An interesting appraisal from someone who hated it so much they recently spent nearly £100,000 on a villa here.

Welcome to Calis!

Hi Laffa!
When have we ever asked the price of anything? Maybe people who live there on a budget need to. We are on holiday, slight difference maybe?

And that is why the prices will keep rising.

We're here at the moment and yes, have found the restaurants on the front to be expensive.  I can't say we'll be eating there again this visit.  It's much cheaper in Gunlukbasi or along at the Birlik. Helen's etc.  Service with a smile, people who are genuinely pleased to have you in their restaurants, take the time to talk to you etc.  I could go on but I'm sure you've all had the same experiences.
I also have to agree with Dave about Marmaris.  We went through on Sunday to visit some friends and had a brilliant meal which was easily 10tl per head cheaper than Calis.
Would we go anywhere else though, no! This is it for us.  We love it, even with the over inflated prices, warts and all :)

If there are any restaurant owners reading this thread and 1 or 2 take notice and act on it by reducing their prices then it can only be good for Calis.

must have hit the wrong button, so so sorry.
By the way I did not say I hated [Calis] just that it was dirty etc which in my opinion ( if that is allowed) it is. Perhaps with your rose coloured glasses on you cannot see it as is.
Funnily enough it seems worse now than when I visited earlier on in the year , the council just does not seem to be able to keep up with the general tidying up of the place, for instance each time they empty the large bins there is more rubbish left around them than before they were emptied.
