About the apartment...Our 2 bed, fully airconditioned, and very tastefully furnished apartment has everything you need from cooking a roast dinner, to sipping wine on the balcony people watching over the pool area and ornate gardens. We sit out in the evenings, with the pool lit up, and sound of crickets in the background, it really is very therapuetic! The apartments are of a very high standard, with fully integrated kitchens, sunken spot lights, and general modern fixings. Bedroom 1 = 3 adult size single beds Bedroom 2 = extra large kingsize bed Both bedrooms have very good quality ikea beds and mattresses, and we have even thought about your comfort whilst sleeping with 100% cotton sheets.

All linen and towels (except beach towels) and a basic welcome pack are included in the price. We have children and have included a travel cot, booster seat, bath mat, toys and plastic cutlery for your use. We have tried to make it as child friendly as possible, and have fitted extra window locks. About the complex....

Altinkum is set on the Aegean Coast (Bodrum Pennisula), in the south west of Turkey (nearest side to UK). Flights are to IZMIR (1.5 hours) or Bodrum (1.15 hours). Altinkum, sometimes called Didm/Didyma is famous for its miles of soft fine sandy beaches and is rich in history with the Appollo temple at the top of the resort. Altinkum is not as busy as some of the other resorts such as Kusadasi or Marmaris, but does cater for all tastes. Altinkum is like an upside down "T" wiht the bottom of the T being the beach where this complex is, the main stick being the beaulevard with many large shops and supermarket, and the end of this stick being the main town centre. The town centre has many typcial Turkish restuarants and shops, and are much cheaper than those in the beach area. The dolmush (mini bus) passes every few minutes and will take you anywhere in the resort for about 40p. New is 2005 is the fantastic water park, with various pools, slides, rides and floating toys. This is a 10 minute ride outside the resort. CLIENT TESTIMONIALS July 2007 Hi Linda, Just a note to say how much we enjoyed staying in your apartment in Turkey.I can't thank you enough for your help and prompt e-mails, you really helped to smooth the organising of our holiday. The apartment was smashing, all we expected and more.The complex was very quiet and relaxing, around the pool in the day and lovely for meals in the evening. I can definitely say that the food and the friendly staff were the best in Al Tinkum. The apartment is definitely in a prime spot, 10 min. walk from all of the beaches and the promenade/restaurants,absolutely excellent. We can't remember when we enjoyed a holiday so much ! I was also very pleasantly surprised at how friendly the local Turkish people are, absolutely first class.It was our first visit to Al Tinkum/Turkey,definitely the first of many! So thanks again for a lovely holiday experience. yours sincerely, Tom and Susan Wistuba Old Kilpatrick, Glasgow.
************************************** Linda. (family of 5 Apartment French - Dolphin 1 - August 2006)
The holiday was brilliant and we will be in touch for next year. The Keys should be with you when you get back plus an extra key we were given for the main access door. We noticed that the apartment above yours is for sale and would be interested in knowing what sort of return we could expect if we were to ask you to rent it out for us. We have also contacted Dolphin ref the next development IV but have hod no response to date. We will keep in touch as we may need your advice if we decide to proceed with a purchase. Stewart
