Hello, tell me, please, which city in Turkey is better to choose?
We are traveling with my husband at the beginning of June. I would like the beach to be sandy, the hotel is 4.5 stars. Rest moderately calm moderately noisy and that it would not be very far from Pammukale because I really want to go there. And of course, what would you be able to go shopping is not very expensive. Thank you very much in advance

The western coast of the Mediterranean Sea or the Aegean Sea will be closer to Pamukala (Kusadasi, Marmaris, Fethiye, Bodrum)

And in the month of June it won’t be cold there, it’s just better to read either Kemer or Alanya at this time of the year

In early June in Mamaris, the water in the sea can be cool, 20-22 degrees, for an amateur, so to speak. The beach in Marmaris is sandy, relatively close to Pamukkale. But for the beginning of June, I would consider other cities - Side, Belek, because. to relax on the sea and not be able to swim is terrible, and not everyone likes to swim in cool water. So, TS, reconsider your priorities: sandy beach-Side, Belek, early June-Mediterranean, proximity to Pamukkale-Aegean coast, but in early June the water is not very warm yet.

If you have a vacation in early June, you can, this time, go to the Mediterranean, and another time, in July-August, you can go to Fethiye, Marmaris and visit Pamukkale. In June, you can go to Kemer, but there are pebbles.

Look at the map
http://www.otpusk.com/ref/tr/cities.html#maps
Closer from the Aegean - but also, not quite close.
June is extensible - May-June and June-July, will vary greatly in water temperature.
Well, indeed, on the Aegean coast it warms up later. Here is a link to one of the sites on water temperature http://travel.org.ua/water.php?o_id=2
Year after year is not necessary, but approximately visible. And the difference is not 5 C near the water on different coasts.
So take a look and decide on the coast, and there are sandy beaches here and there. Then the question will be formulated differently, indicating priorities.
Have a good rest.

In the vicinity of the Bodrum region, but in June the sea is cool there. Alanya is better for June, and from there people go to Pamukkale. Well, a couple of hours longer, but the sea is warmer, and this is also important for relaxation. It is possible, if possible, to give up in Pamukkale for two days, it is not so tiring. In the evening, near the travertines it is very beautiful, there is where to take a walk.

Three days from Alanya by forest, two days by field anywhere. There are pebbles in Kemer.
See the village of Sarigerme, the hotel Iberotel Sarigerme Park. This is closer to the west coast, but the sea is still Mediterranean there, it should be warmer than the Aegean in June. And the place is very beautiful.

Thank you all very much for the advice. Unfortunately, we are not going for a very long time, so it’s unlikely that it will work out for 2 days in Pamukkale. And the Sarigerme Park Hotel is really very beautiful, at least according to the pictures. Thank you very much for your advice we will keep it in mind

Choose hotels in the cities of Antalya, Alanya. It is obligatory only in the area of u200bu200bcities - there are normal clinics, in case of illness they will provide you with more qualified assistance than in the village, there are shops, water of better quality. The sea in this area is warmer, the coast is gentle, the climate is mild. We rested in the village, there was unsanitary conditions in the hotel, the child had been ill with disinteria.

mulenko78 far from all hotels in the villages of unsanitary conditions and in Antalya, it is difficult to call the coast flat, especially in the Lara region, hotels often stand on rocks and for those who like to swim immediately at a depth and in the clear sea, I even recommend using the services of such hotels (I myself like to swim and I never sit in the water near the shore, but I swim away to the depths, or if there is a pier, then I jump from it)

lesenan, be sure to see photos of the beaches of hotels and not only in advertising, but also in reviews. Read the reviews, the negative ones are likely to be true. Although it is not a fact that the hotel will be the same as in the photo on the Internet - in the case of our hotel, as it turned out, there were a LOT of customized reviews and those that the hotel writes to itself.
On the way there and back, I looked out the window of the bus and taxi, I did not see the steep coast in the area. Washes it is on the other side of Antalya, I will not say, listen to other tourists.
Turkey is a very beautiful country, but PLEASE NOTE that they have their own concepts of sanitation and cleanliness, poor quality water, low level of medical care - the TezTour manager warned us about this, unfortunately, a day before departure ...
Do not go under any circumstances at the end of the season!
My friend is resting in Antalya, she likes it, there is a very beautiful embankment. Go on an excursion. I personally don’t advise you to rest in eastern countries, this is a lottery ... They don’t even respect us there, there are many Muslims in Turkey, we are unfaithful to them ...
Read my review and those people who thought my advice was nonsense, it will be useful to know that you can "relax" in Turkey anyway.

Listen, girl, I will repeat once again - what you write is bullshit. Medicine in Turkey is such that we in Ukraine have never dreamed of such a thing. INSURANCE should be issued normally, and not TEZ, which is essentially a flimsy letter with assistance in Russia. This applies not only to Turkey, but to any tour to any country. The 10,000 insurance you write about is nothing at all. Normal ones start at 30,000.
And water according to sanitary standards, which simply flows from a tap anywhere in Turkey, is better than in any of the cities of Ukraine.
The end of the season is just a great time to relax on the Anatolian coast. Excellent! Water is fresh milk, there is no stuffiness and heat and crowds of our tourists.
In short, your impressions of dysentery will not and cannot give any objective picture of a holiday in Turkey. The only benefit is that people will think about whether to go to Lonicera. The child got sick, it's a pity, please accept our condolences. But next time, at least choose a normal hotel and make out good insurance. Not only in Turkey.
"It will be useful to know that you can "rest" in Turkey anyway."
I'm sorry for you and the child, nothing more. We have been going to Turkey by sea since 1998 several times a year, there has never been anything like it.

We are going for the first time and of course we really don’t want to get into such a story as mulenko writes. Well, as they say, who does not risk does not drink champagne, so we will go to Turkey anyway. And while I somehow went over more towards Belek. Well, there is still time to think until June)))

I have not seen really "burning" tours to Turkey for 5 years for sure. Usually the situation is different - closer to the departure there are already no seats on the flight, and all good hotels are in the footsteps. Some dates may "burn", for example, the very last days of August, September 1.2, or dates immediately after the May holidays.

I am not writing bullshit, as commentators put it here, but realities. You just write nonsense. In our country, even television showed stories in the autumn about "rests" similar to ours.
No matter who writes here, the level of service in Turkey, to put it mildly, has "spoiled". It used to be better. But some hotels keep the brand. Upon returning from Turkey, we found out in the hospital that we were far from the only ones who brought "surprises" with them from their vacation this year. Today, an alternative to holidays in Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia, Thailand is Spain, Montenegro, Greece. Decide for yourself
Good hotels in the stop, but the hotel in which we rested is also supposedly good. In our country, you can’t buy a tour already in May, in Russia in March, in Germany, tours have been bought since autumn. There are practically no last-minute trips - you are actually offered either a bad hotel (my friends traveled like that) or, most likely, there will suddenly be no place in a good one on a last-minute trip and you will be accommodated in another, usually much worse ... Read reviews-tourists describe such cases. Take the risk of going on a burning one, but don’t be surprised at anything on vacation ... Last year, our friends went to Kemer "Queens Park" (Tekirova) and a good hotel "Dolphin Botanist" (Alanya)

In travel agencies especially do not trust managers, they lie most often. Focus on the experience of tourists, better known to you. Everyone told us what a good hotel, but it turned out quite the opposite. For Turkish prices, the amount in the tour package is quite sufficient for medical care. After all, we are not going to get sick, in the end, but for rest. Insurance should have a separate price of $100. per person and above.
The level of medicine is better in cities, I repeat. But it is not high, only in VERY expensive clinics at a normal level. And be prepared that they won’t tell you what’s wrong with you and how you are being treated - they don’t accept it. A Turkish dictionary will come in handy, knowledge of English too. There are plenty of our tourists even at the end of the season. We were just faced with the fact that the Germans and Turks behaved, to put it mildly, uncivilized. But for the Slavs, Czechs, Russians, Kazakhs, I did not notice this.
I wish you a pleasant stay and a good choice of hotel. The first hotel is inexpensive, and the second is expensive - and I have information on the first for last year. Even in Dalaman, a friend was resting, I don’t remember the name, a spa hotel, with mud baths, but three years ago. I can find out if needed. And do not choose a big hotel yet, small ones, as I now understand, value their customers

Ahhh, you and Thailand and Tunisia were not pleased ... Everything is clear.
You would have looked with your own eyes at the beach in Spain, and you would not have written such nonsense.
"Surprises" from the rest are always brought from any country, especially children. Planet Earth is not sterile. A good chance to avoid childhood infections is to go to trusted hotels and where there are fewer of these same children. And then one with E. coli "let" into the children's pool, then forty people of children sit on the toilets.
About buying a tour in May is also complete nonsense. In May, the so-called "early booking" ends, which, in fact, is a scam. No matter how much we track prices for early booking from operators, it is always more expensive than buying 3-4 weeks in advance. And for such a period, you can always pick up something.
In general, judging by the review, you were in Turkey for the first and only time. You are unlucky enough to get sick. This is a biased assessment.

lesenan recommend reading more reviews on different hotels in different regions, so as not to make a mistake in choosing. If you know English, it is very useful to read foreigners. From myself, I can recommend not to go towards Alanya, the sea is not very good there. The same goes for Side. In Belek, the coast and the sea also leave much to be desired, but there are many good hotels.
In the direction of Kemer, the nature is very beautiful, the sea is transparent, there are pebbles almost everywhere. Hotels are different, there are 3 * very decent. Further along the coast - in general, a fairy tale, Oludeniz, Fethiye, Sarigerme - fantastic nature, mountains, greenery, sand is almost everywhere on the beaches. The farther west along the coast, the more cultured the contingent, oddly enough.

"""For Turkish prices, the amount in the tour package is quite sufficient for medical care."""
You yourself faced the fact that at first they didn’t want to take you to the hospital, then they wiped you with non-sterile wipes in some village medical center !!! Is this enough insurance? Normally, you would have been immediately taken to a good hospital! Straightaway! And they would put both the child and you under observation! Doesn't life teach?
