Charming, family-friendly stay
For a healthy dose of charm and hospitality, look no further than Celay Hotel. Family-run – with the family-friendly atmosphere to match – this is a world away from sprawling resorts with hundreds of rooms. Instead, you’ll find a couple of small bougainvillea-clad buildings clustered around the main terrace, with a picturesque, mountain backdrop to boot.
Days here are usually of the low-key variety. The spacious pool comes with a flock of sun loungers and a section just for the little ones, plus a waterfall and whirlpool to dial up the relaxation. If the sea is calling your name, meanwhile, the soft sands and turquoise waters of the nearby Blue Lagoon are not to be missed. The local bus will whiz you down the hill to Olü Deniz, and you can see for yourself why this particular stretch of coastline has a world-class reputation.
Back at base you can tuck into hearty meals of Turkish and international eats at the buffet restaurant, while the bar is on hand to keep the drinks flowing. A couple of nights a week you can expect laid-back activities like quizzes and bingo before the crowd drifts off to bed.
Rooms are fuss-free and comfy. Air conditioning is available for a fee should you need to cool off in those hotter summer months, while safety deposit boxes are available for rent in reception for any valuables you wish to store during your stay.

Find out more about Ovacik
While Turkey might be famed for its sticky sweets, the small resort of Ovacik is a true Turkish delight. On a flat plateau surrounded the pine-clad foothills of 1,969-metre-high Babadag (Father Mountain), Ovacik’s setting is extraordinarily beautiful. Life here trots along at a leisurely pace, and the peaceful residential atmosphere means Ovacik holidays are a smart pick for families and groups who want to while away days sipping on cold beer or ‘cay’ teas in cute cafés, or wandering the quaint town.
