Looking for some advise please.
« on: July 09, 2012, 20:41:37 PM »
Hello to everyone. Myself, wife and 12 year old boy are staying at the Majestic Tuana hotel at the begining of August. We have rented privately for the previous 2 years in Ovacik. We are aware that the Majestic is a bit out of the way but wondered if anyone can tell me how far we are from Calis. We visited there a couple of times last year and really liked it. What would anyone suggest is the cheapest way of getting to Calis and Fethiye from the hotel. The missus wants to go to the market and needs her nails done!! All recomendations are welcome  :)
Thanks in advance....

Yaniklar is beautiful but quiet. With the dolmus routes that exist you are closer to Fethiye than Calis although Calis is actually closer but not with a direct bus service. The route to Fethiye on the bus is brill - a dolmus leaves every 10 minutes into town from the gates of Majesty. Also you won't want for a taxi, they line up outside too.

You should be able to get off the dolmus at the top of the main road leading down to Calis though.  Either catch another one or take a twenty minute stroll.

Thank you for your replies so far. I didn't realise that Calis was only a 20 minute walk ! My wife is asking for more of you ladies on here to recomend somewhere for a manicure and pedicure   ;)

Calis isn't a 20 minute stroll, it would be at least an hour to walk along the coast, maybe more. Anne meant the distance between the Fethiye dolmus as it passes Calis and from there, to the Calis prom by foot.

If you take a trip into Fethiye you will find many places for her nails.Whilst shes being pampered you can find many bars that will pamper you.My wife uses a place near the main post office in fethiye which is a 5min walk from the last Dolmus stop in Fethiye.When you get off the Dolmus head down past the mosque to the main road turn left walk intowards the town 5mins PTT(postoffice) on right nail bar on left next to optitions.if you get lost look for Migros and its very close to the shop and also the beers cold there. :)

Thanks a lot guys. I realised what i had typed about the 20 min stroll, my bad : :)
What sort of cost is the missus looking at for a manicure and pedicure in Fethiye?. I Like the sound of getting myself pampered as well, here's hoping her nails take a while.

If she has a pedicure and manicure then it will take a couple of hours so plenty of time for you to visit a local barber and a shave and cut will take about an hour an a half if Doğan's is anything to go by.

Expect a shoulder and arm massage, hair removed from nostrils with burning flame. You can have the odd hairs on your cheeks removed (tweezers) and the fluffy bits burnt off too and no doubt they'll take a look at your ears to see what needs removing there as well - enjoy  ;D

Re cost for manicure and pedicure about 15TL for the manicure and possibly a little more for the pedicure.
