That told me! just trying to keep the place a little bit tidy as the cardboard is not collected as far as I have seen, having taken the time to notice that it has sat for up to 4 weeks, I have popped it in the bin rather than the drainage gulley. I'll leave it in future.

There are so many people from my part of Manchester considering buying in calis, that I have started to tell lies and try to put them off.

Bit selfish you see I want it all to myself. I think the overflowing bin story will be added to my list. Oh and they definatly can't get a full English for 3ytl.

Just to prove the good value of all inclusive v eating out in Calis restaurants, I have been pricing up various all inclusive hotels for 2 weeks in August next year. Prices arent out on all of the accommodation only sites yet, but some are. So, as an example Club Sun City hotel in Olu Deniz, 2 weeks for a family of 4 is £1330. Add on £376 for the flights we have booked, total is £1706 for the 4 of us, all inclusive until midnight. There are other places in Marmaris for around £1000 although reviews seem to be hit and miss.

The same package holiday on Thomas Cook is £3450.

Tonya,

All inclusive is OK but for two weeks you have to eat at the same place all the time. In my mind they are far too restrictive. We like to go out and about and sample different restaurants. We've done AI for a week and that was about my limit - got bored after about 6 days actually.

Each to their own but we prefer the abiltiy to do what we want - when we want.

 :) All inc, bores the rear end off me, we always go out to get a bit of atmosphere and it ends up costing us more, so not worth it for us. ;)

No, but it appeals to families on a budget and that is possibly why Calis is quiet, that is what I'm saying. I know its not for everyone.

Oh well here goes! 8)
Has Calis lost its appeal?  I didn't know it had any : :)

Tonya I have to agree with you re the All-incl for families, family of 4  looking were to eat somewhere different every night, and kids can be picky, then looking to have them entertained on a daily basis, at least the parents can usually get a few hours to themselves a day on the AI hols as many offer childrens clubs.  if renting a property for the same family of 4 cost of flights, rental property, orgainising transfers,meals out,entertainment, and poor mum just a cook in another country if self catering. no contest, and not everyone can afford or fortunate enough to own their own place

Has Calis lost its appeal?  If my first visit/holiday to Turkey was Calis I doubt very much if I would be living here today, I would not have returned year after year, hence I rarely go to Calis and never use the beach, especially having suffered cut feet and legs due to the rubbish on the beach and sharp and deeply shelving rocky slope into the sea.  Why am I here? I love turkey for many other reasons, bars and restaurants not included.

(shout when it is safe to remove the pith helmet):D: :) ;)
