hisaronu

[Rindaloo]

I am saddened that Hisaronu is getting increasingly loud and Blackpool like. I wish noise restrictions were applied more noticeably.  I am fed up with visiting old haunts only to find I am surrounded by a cacophony of noise.  I see that Kaya is getting more developed.  I think it is a shame this is happening.  I am worried that Kaya will get more like Hisaronu. People who like this sort of thing should go to Marmaris.

I feel sorry for people who bought homes in Hisaronu when it was a quieter place and now they find it is changing so quickly.  Fine for those who like it, but.....

I totally agree with Rindaloo ,We can remember when Hisaronu was a quite back water and a nice place to visit now it has become a haven for boozy Brits and beerbelly tattood f**k wits with a wife that looks like the mitchelin man in tow plus two or three kids tagging along that look like they have just served time in some borstal institution.
The local traders seem to think that all visitors are deaf so the volume of the music is turned up to maximum as the evening gets nearer turning into sheer hell over night, surely this should be left to the Spanish resorts and leave Turkey to the more discerning holidaymakers who just want a quiet break away from all the noise polution and p**s artists. But then each to thier own you have a choice I know what mine is,

Trouble is Ted, Spain was once like Turkey.  We should learn from what happened to places in Spain and protect Turkey from the same fate.

The problem as I see it is that Hisaronu has become a victim of it's own lack of success. Too many places to stay, too quickly, not enough demand. So you only have to look at what the tour operators are "giving away" (whole packages for £116 for example), then see where they are - invariably Hisaronu, Altinkum, Gumbet - the truth is that "People who like this sort of thing" can't afford Marmaris anymore.

And when you have something that has just a low price as an attraction, you don't have to offer much more than thumping music, cheap beer and egg & chips.

Bloody shame.

I agree 100%, but it is up to Hisaronu to raise its own game. The hotels are getting bargain basement rates from the tour op's, bars and restaurants will get low profits through being stuck offering the same cheap junk as all the rest.

Until it does it will remain as it is (or probably worse) and everyone associated with it will end up working for peanuts.

We used to stay in Hisaronu, but we changed to Kaya because we found there was more trailer trash staying at the hotel each time we went.  Those people give us all a bad name.

Our place is in Ovacik, as we cant abide the tatoo parlours and loud noises from Hisaronu.  We found Turkey in 1990 when we stayed in Hisaronue when it was a tiny quiet rural village, and we fell in love with it.  its a great great shame the way it has gone....having said that, out of season, it has a real friendly laid back feel to it, and provides plenty to do.  It is always enjoyed by our rentals and guests, especially the children and teenagers, and its only a few minutes further on to Kaya, which is like another world and by far my favourite place for eating.  each to their own, as we all say, but personally I would love to see it take a step back and "raise its game".

Ted - is the more discerning holiday maker the type of person who would not write expletives using asterisks for certain letters on public forums and would not sterotype people?

[ted molloy]

Twin Bee the answer to your question is that i am not a discerning holidaymaker and yes i do stereotype some folk and pride my self in being quite accurate in my observations having spent a lifetime serving my country dealing with all aspects of the human race in one way or another  
from the good to the very very bad .
And to conclude i am as you gather not one of your PC brigade.
