Fethiye Beach Resort is one of the most picturesque regions in Turkey, located at the confluence of the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas. People come here to relax on the sandy coasts, surrounded by protected areas. This is the only place in the country where you can observe the habits of the turtles living here. Thanks to the waterfowl inhabitants, the resort has an unofficial name - Turtle Island.
In addition to the sandy coast and green areas, the region boasts comfortable climate: It is not as humid here as in other Turkish resorts.
When choosing Fethiye hotels on the first line for rest, we recommend considering options above average, which differ in nutrition (there is always a variety of seafood, meat and fruits) and service.
If you decide to have a rest in Turkey on your own, we recommend that you decide on following factors:
- how varied is the food, is there a children's menu;
- service;
- infrastructure for entertainment and attractions;
- remoteness from the sea;
- is there a doctor, what are the conditions for admission;
- animation for adults and children on the territory of the hotel complex, babysitting services.
