Hi has anyone had a Turkish bath at the Rhapsody Hotel? If so what were your thoughts, any idea of costs? Neither myself or hubby have had a Turkish bath before and I for one quite fancy the experience. Probably a really stupid question though - what does it entail? :D
-
We've never been to the Rhapsody but have had a few Turkish baths at the Atlantis. Basically you get scrubbed, soaped and massaged.......and come out feeling squeaky clean and relaxed, could highly recommend!
-
I've been going to Turkey for almost 10 years and treated myself to my first Turkish bath in October last year. It was lovely and I can't wait to have another one. It wasn't at the Rhapsody Hotel though. it was a place close to the big Yali supermarket further up the hill from Hunkar kebab.
-
If someone has been to Rhapsody do they have a female masseuse/'scrubber' or are they a Turkish bather & I'm a bathee in these circumstances ? ;D But you know what I mean.
-
Sezkalkan, you went to Atlantis which is the one I would also recommend along with Babs, just because its one of the most authentic hamans in Kalkan. Looks like they've had a bit of a refurb during the close season...can anyone confirm?
The last I heard, Dimitris was running the Spa at Rhapsody on his own-may have changed for the new season as these things do ::)
-
Atlantis has indeed been refurbed - I havent been in yet but the photos look great - I will be giving it a go! :)
-
Kalkan4eva, yes they have had a refurb. They've re-opened this week and it does look lovely. They have a Facebook page 'kalkan Atlantis wellness spa & hamam' for those of you who do FB.
I went last year for my first Turkish bath. It was lovely and I don't know why I waited 10 years to do it. It will be the first thing I do when I arrive next month!
-
Yes I saw the photos on FB just wondered if anyone had been in? Love this place and the pictures look lovely...cant wait to be back there in a mere 85 days - just sayin :)
We are spending a couple of days in Kalamar this year before settling in just round the corner from Atlantis so I'm delaying my Turkish Bath until we're there as I cant imagine going anywhere else.
Sezkalkan, it will definitley be part of your Kalkan ritual from now on ;D ;D
-
So has anyone been to the Rhapsody then?
-
I did Atlantis at the weekend, just a Turkish bath & it was really good, they've done a lot to the front area, the changing rooms are much better now than how they used to be. The bath area is all nicely done out as well.
-
Has anyone used the spa on kalamar road please and if so thoughts? Am staying in kalamar and want to go somewhere in walking distance
Thanks very much
