These three words are short, but very capacious - "paradise","Oludeniz", "Turkey". Hotels in this divine corner colorfully fit into the fabulous beauty of the landscape, perfectly complementing it with unobtrusive strokes of civilization. They built them with the expectation of tourists of all categories - from young families with children to older couples. A suitable home for the time of rest can choose for themselves and accustomed to the chic, and those who are not particularly picky, because the resort is hospitable to open about a hundred hotels and apartments.
A few words about the features of the resort
A lot of tourists who traveled the whole world,believe that the heavenly paradise on earth is not the French Riviera, not sunny Italy and not the exotic Seychelles, but Oludeniz, Turkey. Hotels, air, sea, nature of this region allow you to enjoy your holiday as much as possible.
In the translation from the local language the name of the resortmeans "dead sea", but with the Jordan it has nothing in common. It's dead because this corner of the earth is protected by fabulously beautiful mountains, full of beautiful birds, fragrant flowers growing even on hot sand, and overgrown with age-old trees. The mountains protect from the winds, and the sand bar creates a kind of lagoon called the Blue. There is always quiet, calm, the water is much warmer than in the open sea, the depth is small, so for kids it fits perfectly. The village of Oludeniz is designed for tourists. There are practically no local residents, mainly only seasonal staff. Hence the entire infrastructure, represented by many small shops, bars and restaurants. A large supermarket is only one, the prices for everything are much higher than in neighboring Fethiye.
Location
Some dreamily sigh, saying: "Oludeniz, Turkey ...". The hotels there are concentrated on a rather small patch, surrounded on one side by wooded mountains, and on the other by the sea. There is no public transport in the village, so you have to walk on foot both to the beach and shopping.
Therefore, when choosing a hotel is very usefulto ask how far from the sea it is located. Recently, in Oludeniz, developers are rising steadily higher in the mountains. Not every tourist is suitable daily cross to the beach and back on a steep slope. There is only one road to the village, which is reached from the airport (approximately 1 hour). She winds along picturesque mountain slopes and hills, passing a small resort town of Fethiye, from which to Oludeniz 12 km, and leads further to the village of Kabak. This is the final point. Further there is no way, the bus turns around and rides back.
Climate
In summer it is hot and dry in winter, it's cool, damp and rainy, during the off-season everything is a bit sunny, rainy, warm, cool.
This is the place - Oludeniz (Turkey). Hotels sometimes even flood here, if the showers are too strong. Having decided to have a rest at this resort not in the summer, take an interest in the weather forecast. From the end of September to May it is deserted. The people are leaving, almost all the hotels and shops, including the only supermarket, are closing. You can swim in the off-season only in the lagoon, if the days are sunny. There it is shallow and the water warms up very quickly. In winter, in Oludeniz, it is good only for those who seek solitude, who are not afraid of inclement weather.
Leisure
Such a many-sided and peculiar country Turkey! Fethiye, Oludeniz, whose hotels do not differ much, offer their guests a very different leisure.
It seems that the sea is the same, and the sun is the same, butthe rest at these two resorts-neighbors turns out different. In the town, you can luxuriate on the beach during the day or go to the water park, and in the evening you can have fun at the disco or at the bar. Excursions from Fethiye are also much more diverse. Oludeniz can offer mainly beach holidays, paragliding and hiking in the mountains. If there are discos here, then only in individual hotels for their guests. And all the sightseeing routes, with the exception of two or three, somehow lie through Fethiye. But in Oludeniz the species is more beautiful, the sea is bluer, the air is fresh - the reserve is after all. These are the alternatives.
Beaches
Basically in Oludeniz come to swim in the sea,luxuriate on the white sand and admire the beautiful views. Beauty is really enough here. Beaches too. The most important thing is Beljegiz. It is sandy, very wide, equipped with numerous sun loungers and umbrellas. The entrance to it is free, but for the rest have to fork out.
However, up to this time and on personal mats to sunbathewas allowed. A clear minus of the beach is a new marina for yachts and boats right in the center. Another very good beach is in the reserve. The entrance is paid even in winter. For sunbeds and umbrellas you need to pay separately (plus an entrance ticket). There is also a wild sand and pebble beach in the reserve, where you can safely spread the rug brought with you and put a personal umbrella. Own small beach areas also have some upscale hotels in Oludeniz. Turkey is famous for its wonderful beaches, many of which are awarded the Blue Flag for its cleanliness. This applies not only to the Blue Lagoon, but also to Calis - a five-kilometer municipal beach in Fethiye.
Oludeniz, Turkey, the hotel "Flamingo 3 *"
Among all the hotels of the resort most of allthree-star. Prices and service in them are quite acceptable. For example, the hotel "Flamingo". It is located on the second coastline, that is to the beach about 1000 meters. This is a drawback. Another disadvantage for those who are difficult to walk is the location in three levels, that is, with stairs and a lot of steps.
In all the rest the hotel "Flamingo" is excellent. It has 70 modern comfortable rooms of different class and value. Each has a TV, air conditioning, balcony, bathroom, telephone and minibar. Only in the "standard" type it does not exist. In the "suites" there is an additional kitchen. Rooms are cleaned regularly. The maids obligatory create on the beds masterpieces from towels and rose petals. Tourists are provided with a free breakfast in the hotel restaurant, currency exchange, children's and adult pools, umbrellas and sun loungers, parking, bar, safe and luggage storage. For kids there is a special playground. Leisure adults help diversify the tennis court, billiards, table tennis.
Hotel "Dorian 3 *"
This hotel is approximately 150 meters from the hotel."Flamingo". There are 8 buildings, each of which has some differences. So, in the buildings located next to the bar, it's very noisy, because every day until midnight the disco works. In the rest more or less calmly.
The rooms are also very different. There are such (0 and 1 levels), which are damp, and the views from the windows are unattractive. On the second floor in the rooms, as a rule, it is light and sunny. The biggest plus of the hotel, which was repeatedly noted in the reviews of tourists, is an excellent three-time free (BB) food system. The menu is always varied, a lot of baking, fish, meat and vegetable dishes. The effort and professionalism of the cooks is another touch, thanks to which many vacationers liked Turkey, Oludeniz. Hotel Dorian, despite the many advantages, still caused criticism (mainly due to problems with numbers and somewhat cool attitude of staff). But the prices here are much lower than in the neighboring "Flamingo" of the same class.
