Hi everyone just joined the forum and wanted to let you know what a lovely time we had on our holiday in Altinkum last week. We arrived during at 12.30am during a major power cut, and after a hair-raising minibus transfer from the airport, to be greeted with a candlelight reception and a couple of very cold beers!!

We stayed at the YAGMUR APART HOTEL and were looked after by Nigel (Nedget) the manager and his lovely wife. The chef Esus (AKA Jesus) and the waiters Urrhan (AKA the Handsome Man) Hussein (AKA Fenabache Man) and the rest of the boys.

Anyone who is thinking of a Bed ‘N’ Breakfast or Self Catering holiday (though you wont do much cooking as the food is so cheap in the restaurants) to Altinkum and wants to find a hotel that 'does what it says on the tin' then the YAGMUR APART HOTEL is the place for you. What it lacks in finesse it more than makes up for in hospitality. The restaurant serves up some lovely traditional Turkish dishes and I highly recommend the Testi Kebab (Lamb meat cooked in a jug andt comes to the table aflame. We enjoyed ourselves so much we are going back in October for another holiday.
