Facilities: There are several pools, tennis courts and a beach area, and a sqash area, but they charge extra to use the steam room, jacuzzi and fitness centre. It is (I think) 5 or 10 lira more per day to use that stuff. There is a really small TV in the room, but they only get 2 english channels anyway (CNN AND BBC).
The meals were good. We stayed half board and had no problem getting our fill. DRINKS are horridly expensive at the hotel. Even bottled water is 3.5 lira while in the supermarket it is .65 lira. A cocktail will run you 16 lira. I didn't buy a single drink there. They also have a horrid policy where you are not allowed to bring in food or drink in the hotel. If they find anything in your room, they will confiscate it from you. Seriously. We bought a couple beers in town and put the in our mini bar fridge - AFTER the maid had already came - and when we came back later, they were gone. They also took water we bought elsewhere.
The location: Bodrum is loud and noisy with nightclubs. AZKA is between Bodrum and Gumbet. The location is actuall quite nice since you are out of the busy town, and in a hotel only area. Less hassles. It is a short bus ride (dolmush) to Gumbet (or walk) and a short boat or Dolmush to Bodrum as well. From this angle, you get fantastic breaktaking views of the Black Island, and the Castle over in Bodrum. I was very happy with the location. The Dolmush run 24 hours a day so if you go into town partying, you can return easily.
Entertainment is also provided some evenings. There was a Turkish show and a singer another night.
No daytime activities are scheduled. It is just a hotel, not a resort.
