So the last visit was the summer of 2011, my only 'holiday' in 2012 was a weekend in Chelmsford for V Festival (at least it was a heatwave). Luckily this year the Calis bug itch has been scratched!
BMB seemed to be mostly in one piece when we arrived on the 15th July, otherwise there didn't seem to be much change noticeable change except the usual move around of staff between the restaurants and bars.
Overall, all meals out were lovely - except for one meal at Yeni Dunya in Fethiye when the boyfriend and I had one of our own nights out. And Mozaik Bahce once again never failed to please us, though I shall post restaurant reviews soon.
We found that Calis is a lot quieter than it has been in previous years, yet some nights the front would be very busy. Mondays were quietest as that seemed to be the transition day, but to those who have been before it is noticeably quieter.
Excursions: Blue Bays boat trip with Calis boats, always a relaxing day with a lovely lunch and a snorkel kit makes the stops more interesting when you can see what you're swimming above!
Jeep Safari we did with Evergreen this year, a very enjoyable day out and there was more time spent at the Yaka Park which I preferred this time around.
Kaya Koy, Mum and Dad did this trip and enjoyed it, a very interesting day out. Though the parents recommend it more for a cooler day/month as it heats up very quickly and to wear sensible shoes as well!
All in all, it was a wonderful break away from the UK everyone enjoyed themselves greatly and relaxed a lot! Calis is still the wonderful place I remember and it was great sharing it with someone else who hadn't been before who loved it as well. My ultimate highlight? Seeing baby turtles hatch in the late afternoon on the beach, it was a lovely moment which will stick for a long time
