Turkey Family Holiday

Claire Bottone on 11 August 2009
I always say that it really pays to think things through…sit down and work out what you want from a holiday and what will suit all members of your family.

This year we went to an All Inclusive family hotel in Belek , and we were all blown away by what the hotel could offer and the cleanliness and standard of its facilities!

My family of five travelled with our friends who are also a family of five, with children ranging from six years old to 14 years old…and every child had a super time (meaning that us adults were able to enjoy the hotels full facilities as well!)

Belek has a small town that has some shops and a market…not a fantastic range, but well worth a visit for the morning! There is a small 'mini train' that runs to and from the hotels along the main road, which makes the idea of shopping a little more exciting for the children!

There are a number of good quality hotels in this area that all sit on the beach and offer great entertainment, water slides , a choice of pools, good sporting activities and bathing piers out in the sea. They have a great selection of restaurants, a spa and gym, so really there is not much need to venture out. We did have a great day out on a boat though, which was really good to see the coast and have a swim in the deep blue sea!

Great destination, great hotel - we shall definitely return!
