Is Kalkan full up this season

[misty]

I'm starting to think that this summer season is going to be very busy...it appears that Turkey and Kalkan are the number one destination this year. Dosent suprise me as Kalkan has been featured in numerous holiday reports I have read recently and with the Euro being in the toilet could Kalkan be a victim of its own success

I hope that Kalkan is busy for the sake of the people who work so hard making our holidays so perfect.However it is not the inexpensive holiday it once was.If you read the post office report on family holiday destinations 2010 ,out of 12 european resorts,Turkey was the 10th most expensive.A comparison of various prices had Portugal showing £68.80 and Turkey showing £115.47 .It will not stop us coming to Kalkan as we love it but  care must be taken not to push up prices too much.

you can still find prices for all pockets...we stay in accommodation that lets us self cater....we eat out only when we feel lazy...you can get reasonable food delivered from several places .Certainly last june it was pretty quiet compared to a few years ago and bar /restaurant owners were saying so.....i believe it got busier july end /aug through flight problems and people being sent to kalkan instead of original destinations.I think many larger familys with kids will be going down the all inclusive route....as for us? one rooftop view is like the next we've been in most over the years and a walk and a beer on the harbour is a nice way to walk din dins off

Please remember to take the Post Office info with a good pinch of salt. Surveys are carried out for a purpose, in this case it was likely to have been undertaken by a PR company to make news - which it was successful at doing. Surveys and reports of this type rarely reflect reality and so shouldn't be accepted at face value.

To be honest, we had no choice about going in August this year, and I'm a bit anxious after reading the reports of posters there last August (we'd already booked at this point). I'm hoping things have considerably calmed down this year and pray no other tour operator goes bust, for lots of reasons. We will expect to book restaurants, boats and get to the beach club early and I know the heat will be unbearable and play havoc with my hair, but I wouldn't want to be anywhere else...plus I'm expecting my water hammock to be a lifesaver
I still think you can have a great holiday in Kalkan on any budget and at any time of year

Well if I see you in August I'll lend you a hat for your hair

Here is another article about Kalkan in the weekend edition of the FT, mostly about property values.
