Marmaris, Lunamar Apartments

just back from lunamar apartments - accomodation fab no complaints at all

Would like to say that we arrived at the Lunamar with some trepidation as the reviews we had read were a mixed bunch, however, we were pleasantly surprised with what we found.

Although the hotel is situated at the top of a large hill, which could be a problem for some guests, we found the stroll down to the village of Armutalan a enjoyably one.

On arrival we were given a room that was at the top of the hotel and was not entirely suitable for us, however, the receptionist was happy to reaccomodate us. The rooms were clean and we had everything we were expecting, including a loo roll!

We didnt shop at the little corner shop at the bottom of the hill, rather we went to BIM, which was basically a Turkish Lidl! Its in the village, across the main square and down some little steps. Bit of a mission to find if you dont know where youre going but there was an English girl called Katie who directed us to it. She ended up being our advisor for most of the fortnight, and we booked lots of her excursions on her advise. Make sure you have a Turkish Bath, its not just for tourists, even the locals have them! We also booked the boat trip, buggy safari, and the diving with her. All were very good value, well organised, and contributed greatly to the overall experience we had of Turkey.

We ate at Meeting place a few times, there was a Welsh lady there, called Lyn, who was very friendly and their food was very nice.

Also, Violets had a very reasonably priced menu, and they sold the most amazing cakes!

We took a trip to Icmeler on the Wednesday and went around the market haggling like our lives depended on it! We got the shopping trip free so we figured we could spend the savings on all the Genuine Fakes!

All in all, we would say this hotel was good for families and groups alike, however, buggies and wheelchair users may find it hardgoing.

My holiday was the best I have been on. The staff there are so friendly and I keep in touch with them all the time on msn and facebook. I am going back again on the 22 August going to book it next month. The maid service is brilliant and they always have a new design to make out of your bed sheets every day. The night life at the Marmaris front was amazing but also the hotel night life is good. The prices of the food n drink are reasonable. PLEASE VISIT THE LUNAMAR APTS. you will have the time of your life.

I read for too many negative opinions about the hotel, the hill and the local banter from the males. Within hours I changed my whole perception. The locals were extremely friendly _ i got the impression they like us British folk. They have a good strong culture and one to be admired. I would definitely visit Turkey again. The excursions booked with Nostradamus were all well organised - boat trips and jeep safari and give you the opportunity to sightseer the landscape. I don't think we could have had a better time. We used taxi's and dolmush buses. We felt safe walking. We never saw any trouble or met with any. I would recommend this area Armutalan Marmaris to anyone. I travelled as a single mother with three children. We all had a fantastic holiday and one we will all remember.

The staff Lunamar Apartments are very friendly, there was always friendly people around to have a laugh with. The apartments are always clean, very nice location and very hot. It is absolutely good, I'm definitely going again and have already booked up it was amazing.

The only bad point is there is a big hill (not too bad though)

and can be quite noisy at night but if you don't mind it its ok.

Just returned to UK and had to write a review about one of the best holidays ever! My 9 friends and I love Turkey! We were a little worried about over zealous locals but rest assured, everyone is as nice as can be. We didn't have any hassle except from the occasional 'alright girls', nothing we couldn't handle!

Hotel was lovely, the maids were really sweet and didn't bat an eyelid at all our clothes strewn everywhere!

Booked a load of trips with Nostradamus travel. Got the best tan off their all inclusive boat trip, and loved their paint balling day!

Ate at Carols Bar and Violets as they were the best value with the nicest staff and yummy food!

Would definitely recommend Turkey to everyone!
