Excellent food every meal!
by josim about Loveboat, Harry's Steak House, Artemis, Black Sea
To be fair all the restaurants we visited in Icmeler during our 11 night stay produced excellent food so it was difficult to choose which were the best. The best was definately Loveboat. It was slightly more expensive than the others (about £8 for a steak) but was absolutely delicious and offered great variety. Harry's steak haouse was also very good and offered a wide variety. One of their best meals was Harry's Ottoman Dream which was for a family and came flambed. It consisted of lamb and beef strips cooked with tomatoes and onions in a sauce and served with rice and potattoes. It was excellent. Artemis was alo very good and also served a good variety of traditional English dishes for the less adventurous. Black sea also produced excellent steaks and had excellent service. Loveboat - steak in caramelised onion sauce
Harry's steak house - Harry's Ottoman dream
Artemis - Chicken pie
Black Sea - steak in a garlic sauce
Trip To Akyaka
by redrhino12
One of The trips we did last year was to a little town on the Gokova Bay called Akyaka.
It was only an hour from Icmeler and on the way we stopped at a couple of rock tombs from days gone.
Arriving in Akyaka was as I imagined it, a beautifull little village with this magnificent backdrop of mountains.
Having an harbour area and the Azmac river running into the bay over which river is a rustic wooden bridge,this has got to be a photographers paradise.
Fish restaurents lined the pretty promenade and one step and you were on to the beach area, were sunbeds and brollies were in abundence.
2 beds and 1 brolly 4ytl.
The beach shelved gently into the sea and you could walk out 150mtrs before having to swim,this was great for Andre and he loved jumping and diving into the waves.
We left Akyaka at 3.30 arriving Icmeler 4.30,oh I wish we had that beach and sea at Icmeler.
Then they havent got any "3 Bells" "Lion Bar" "Majestic Boys" etc, or do they actualy desire them? I think not,this is a resort for those who like peace and tranquilityand that is what reigns in this Turkish resort.
