Holidays in Alanya are growing in popularity because Alanya's position on the south coast mean tourists can enjoy April and May, September and October as well as the Summer holiday months. Alanya is a new destination for British holiday makers, yet it is the top destination for EU visitors to Turkey. This might explain why there are only 2 "English Pubs" and the "Full English Breakfast" is not the most popular dish in restaurants. In fact there are nearly 10,000 EU nationals living permanently in Alanya. The advantage of this is that Alanya has a wonderful international selection in their menus, as well as authentic Turkish cuisine. | |

We strongly advise that guests who are coming on holiday print off information about what they would like to see as well as information about the places they would like to visit. We suggest that guests bring an up to date guide book which are always available at the departure airport. Information is available at the villas, but the information on the website is much more detailed and up to date. A detailed map is essential and any good guide book on Turkey will have one.
