Dear Holidaymaker, Welcome to Sunway’s dedicated Turkey brochure 2011. Not only has Turkey topped the poll in many holiday surveys it has also proven to be the number one holiday destination with holidaymakers from Ireland. Turkey offers a superb range of accommodation and value for money. Being a non euro destination means Turkey is cheap for all of your holiday needs and has a lot to offer at very low prices. It is reasonable to travel there and once you have arrived you will experience how far your money will stretch. As financial insecurity reigns in, it makes sense to choose your holiday destination for 2011 carefully. Turkey is improving for tourism year in year out and the resort of Kusadasi has become a must for Irish holidaymakers. Turkey has it all for the perfect holiday – the Turkish people offer a genuine Cead Mile Failte, the cuisine is mouth watering, the coastline breathtaking, the nightlife cosmopolitan and for culture there are many historical sites such as Ephesus within easy reach of the resorts and most importantly Turkey boasts more than 300 sunshine filled days per year.

6-7 Turkey intro.qxp:
Turkey Hos geldiniz means welcome and is probably the most frequently used phrase in the Turkish language. Turkey is truly the land of welcomes. Turkish people are, by nature, very open, warm, friendly, honest and welcoming. Indeed many people say that Turks are very similar in nature to Irish and they certainly share our sense of humour and our ability to enjoy a joke - even at our own expense. Turkey is a vast country stretching from the Black Sea in the north to the Mediterranean in the south and from the barren east to the sparkling blue waters of the Aegean Sea in the west. It is here on the Aegean coast that the most popular tourist resorts are located including our featured resorts of Kusadasi, Cesme and Ozdere. Turkey is steeped in history and almost every road you travel has sites and ruins whose names feature boldly in the histories of the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires. Perhaps, most surprising for the newcomer, is the number of Christian sites dating from the time of Christ and the apostles and of course the house of the Virgin Mary located close to Kusadasi. The highest mountain peak in Turkey is Mount Ararat which, according to the Old Testament, was where Noah’s ark came to rest as the great flood subsided. Turkish is the official and predominant language but most people who work in the service and tourism sectors in the main resorts and cities speak English. The vast majority of Turks are Muslim by birth but you will find that only a small number of people in the cities and resorts are fervent practitioners.

6-7 Turkey intro.qxp:
Useful Information about Turkey Accommodation and Infrastructure The general standard of tourist accommodation in Turkey has improved in recent years and is now generally on a par with similar accommodation in western Mediterranean destinations. However the public infrastructure such as roads and footpaths in many areas fall short of what you would find in Ireland. Public utilities such as electricity supply can also be erratic at times and some services in your selected property such as air conditioning and lifts may be affected by low voltage or power cuts. Many, but not all, of the properties we feature have their own back-up generators. Marble and ceramic tiling are used extensively both indoors and outdoors for flooring and paving and become extremely slippery when wet so extreme caution is needed especially around swimming pools.
Currency and Shopping The local currency is the Turkish Lira YTL and at the time of writing €1 is equivalent to 2.10 YTL. All major credit cards are widely accepted as are many debit cards such as Laser. Turkey is a shopping paradise and best buys include branded fashion wear, leather goods, gold, jewellery, rugs and spices.
Getting Around In all towns and resorts there is a wonderful local minibus service called the “Dolmus”. They provide a frequent and cheap transport service from every area of the resort to the centre and the main beaches and apart from its marvellous efficiency travelling on the Dolmus affords an opportunity to mix with the local people as they go about their daily lives. For those who want to explore rural life in Turkey there is also a Dolmus service from the resorts to all outlying villages. Turkey also has an excellent intercity bus service which is relatively cheap and on the longer journeys on board stewards serve tea, coffee and other refreshments. There is also a very good domestic air service with a number of low cost operators on most routes.
Turkish Food and Choice of Restaurants Most resorts have a wide choice of restaurants and cafes offering an extensive selection of international dishes including European, Chinese, Mexican etc. The local Turkish cuisine is really excellent and is based around the best local produce including beef, lamb, fish, fresh vegetables, fruit, olive oil and a great range of different mouth watering breads. We recommend you try it at least once
during your stay. Our “Exclusive To Sunway Holidays” properties all offer a very good a la carte menu selection to suit all tastes including Turkish dishes. When selecting a restaurant please bear in mind the general rule of thumb which applies in all destinations - if the prices on offer are considerably cheaper than those generally available there has to be a catch and you are better off going elsewhere.
Excursions and Trips Our local handling agents in Turkey are Travel 4u and they offer a wide range of trips and excursions to our guests. You will find details of these in the Information Book in your selected hotel or our representative will be happy to provide you with more information. Among the most popular trips are • The ancient city of Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis which was one of the seven wonders of the world, • The House of the Virgin Mary, • The cotton castles of Pamukkale. • Visits to the wonderful city of Istanbul. • Visits to Troy with its famous wooden horse and the battlegrounds of Gallipoli, and • Boat trips, aqua parks, scuba diving, water sports etc.

10 Top Places to See and Things to Do Ephesus The ancient city of Ephesus was visited and patronised by Alexander the Great in 334 BC because of its importance as the Shrine of Artemis, the Greek Goddess of Moon and Hunting. Over the following centuries it passed through various hands, reaching its peak under the control of the Romans, who built it up to become their Asian Capital. The Temple of Artemis was one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The silting of its harbour in the 3rd century spelled the end for Ephesus and over time the city became completely covered over until 1869 when it was discovered by a British archaeologist. Even now the city is still being excavated and experts say that 75 per cent of the city still remains buried. The amphitheatre in Ephesus is one of the worlds biggest, which held up to 25,000 people. Other impressive sites at Ephesus include ‘The Latrines’, ‘The Temple of Hadrian’ and ‘The House of Love’.
Virgin Mary’s House After the death of Christ, His Mother Mary came to live in Turkey close to Ephesus. Her house is in the mountains and she remained there in prayer and solitude until her assumption into heaven to join her son, Jesus Christ. Mary’s House is an official and important Catholic shrine and has been visited by a number of Popes including a visit by Pope Benedict XVI in November 2006. Mass is celebrated there every Sunday morning.
Pamukkale Pamukkale meaning ‘Cotton Castle’ was formed thousands of years ago when a calcium rich spring cascaded over the hillside to form this brilliant white snowy chalky mountain and terraces. Visitors will also get a chance to swim in Cleopatra’s Pool and visit the ancient city of Hierapolis.

The hotels are very flexible as regards arrangements and menus. Live music and other extras are included as standard in all their wedding packages. The three hotels are all located in the well known and popular Ladies Beach area of Kusadasi and within easy walking distance of each other. It is quite common for couples and their guests to stay in one of the hotels and have their wedding ceremony and/or Reception in one of the others and there is no extra charge for this except for organised transport for guests, if required.

The lower terrace is ideal for larger groups and is generally reserved exclusively for the wedding party. There is a large indoor restaurant at this level which is available to the wedding party but most choose to dine and dance on the outside terrace where the lights from the sea and the stars combine to illuminate this romantic setting.

Kusadasi
T11-TURKEY p14-15
Kusadasi Kusadasi is one of the largest and best known of the Aegean Sea holiday resorts in Turkey and has, for many years, been the most popular resort for Irish tourists visiting Turkey. Kusadasi is a deep water port and during the summer gigantic luxury cruise liners from all over the world visit the port on almost a daily basis. It is also home to a luxury yacht marina and many of the world’s rich and famous personalities are known to visit regularly in their super yachts. So keep your eyes peeled because you never know just who might be sipping a martini at the next table. There are a number of very good beaches in Kusadasi, the most popular being Ladies Beach and Long Beach. Many of our featured properties are within walking distance of Ladies Beach. Long Beach is easily accessible by Dolmus from the resort centre. Long beach stretches some 25 km from the edge of the resort to the Dilek Mountains and National Park, which covers an area of some 28,000 hectares, and is easily reached by Dolmus from the town centre. There is a wide selection of restaurants, cafes and bistros around the resort and the fresh fish restaurants in the marina area are particularly recommended by our clients. There is also an abundance of nightlife to choose from ranging from

upmarket beach clubs, small live music bars in the old town or the throbbing, pulsating disco bars which line the famous Bar street. Kusadasi is a shoppers paradise. Located in an important cotton growing area many of the most famous fashion brands in the world have factories in the locality and you can get genuine fashion ware at greatly reduced prices. This in turn has spawned a hugh fake fashion industry and typical of Turkish honesty there is no attempt to deceive you as they proudly offer you “genuine fakes” at unbelievely cheap prices. Other good buys include gold and jewellery, leather goods and Turkish carpets.The main market day for textiles and souvenirs is Wednesday and we also recommend a visit to the weekly fruit and vegetable market on Friday just to experience the amazing colours and smells of the fresh fruit, vegetables and spices being offered for sale directly by the growers. Many of the best known attractions in Turkey are located close to Kusadasi including the ancient city of Ephesus and the temple of Artemis, the House of the Virgin Mary and St. John’s Basilica. The famous cotton castles of Pamukkale and the Greek island of Samos are other popular day trips and there are daily boat trips and an abundance of water sports.There are two very large water parks one of which claims to be the biggest in Europe. In addition to the many rides and slides there is also a daily Dolphin and Seal show and a Sea Park where visitors can swim with dolphins or tropical fish or descend in a steel cage in the hugh shark tank. For the even more adventurous Microlight tours are available over Ephesus and Kusadasi port.
Transfer time by coach from Izmir airport is about 1 hour 15 minutes.

Palmin Sunset Plaza is the third of the Palmin Group hotels which we feature exclusively. While sharing the same high standards of facilities and service as its sister hotels Sunset Plaza is different in many ways. It is built in small separate blocks around the large swimming pool and enjoys a wonderful panoramic location directly overlooking the sea.

There is access to a sandy beach via a steep path or the well known Ladies Beach and Green Beach are both within walking distance less than 1 km away. The centre of the resort is just 3.5 km away and easily reached via the local Dolmus service which now stops just outside the hotel or by taxi. Its sister hotels the Palmin Hotel and Sea Pearl hotel are both within walking distance and, of course, guests from Palmin Sunset Plaza are always welcome.

Palmera Hotel 3h
Adult Saver
Kusadasi
We doubt there is any hotel in Kusadasi which enjoys a more stunning location than Palmera Hotel. It is set on a steep headland directly overlooking Pigeon Island. The castle on Pigeon Island which dates from the 15th century has become the unofficial symbol of Kusadasi and features on the cover of almost every tourist guide of the city. The views from the hotel are at times breathtaking affording a bird’s eye view of Kusadasi Bay where you will see small open fishing boats, luxury yachts and some of the biggest cruise liners in the world entering and leaving side by side. From 2011 Palmera Hotel will be managed and operated by the Palmin Hotel Group.
Location The hotel is located on an elevated site just 1.5 Km from the centre of Kusadasi and 1.5 Km from Ladies Beach. For those with energy to negotiate the steep hill Palmera Hotel is within walking distance of the beach and the resort centre and for the less energetic the local Dolmus minibus service stops close by. Two of the more popular beach clubs in the resort are within easy distance and can actually be seen from the hotel.

Blue Jasmine Villas is a development of 30 detached private villas in the Ladies Beach area of Kusadasi and we have been very fortunate to secure a small number of these villas to offer exclusively to our customers from Ireland. Blue Jasmine is not a holiday complex, as such, and is best suited to families and small groups who are looking for a comfortable base from which to enjoy the many and varied amenities and activities which Kusadasi has to offer.

Accommodation
The villas are set in beautifully landscaped gardens in a quiet secluded area and still within easy reach of all the local attractions. There is a small rocky beach and restaurant just 450 meters from Blue Jasmine but the main centre of activity is Ladies Beach which is less than 1.5 Km away. The resort centre is 5 Km away. The local Dolmus service stops right outside. There is a small market just 150 meters away and for more serious household shopping there is a large Tesco shopping centre just 5 minutes away by taxi. Other smaller supermarkets located in the resort centre are easily reached by Dolmus.
Modern, tastefully furnished three bedroom detached villas which sleep up to 7 persons. Sleeping accommodation consists of one double bedroom with en suite shower room and toilet and two twin bedrooms. The master bedroom has a good sized balcony and one of the twin rooms also has a small balcony. All three rooms have individual air conditioning and built in wardrobes. The main bathroom is at the same level as the bedrooms and has a full bath with shower. A seventh person can be accommodated on a fold away camp bed in the lounge. A small safe deposit box is fitted in the master bedroom.

Cesme
T11-TURKEY p32
Cesme and Ilica. Cesme [pronounced chesh-may] is a popular holiday resort and spa centre. It is located 80 Km west of Izmir city on the westernmost tip of the Cesme peninsula. The Greek Island of Chios is less than 3 Km offshore. Cesme has a long and rich history having been an important centre down through the ages under Ionian and Ottoman rule and that Greek influence is still evident in the town today. There are many sulphurous thermal springs around Cesme with some of them springing from the sea with source temperatures in excess of 60째 C as can be seen in the nearby beach resort of Ilica. The therapeutic and curative qualities of these springs have made Cesme a renowned spa and thalassotherapy centre. The town itself is dominated by Cesme Castle and the nearby caravansary. The harbour is at the very centre of the resort where traditional fishing boats mingle with luxury yachts. There is a regular ferry service to the nearby Greek Island of Chios and the Italian ports of Bari and Brindisi. There are many bars and restaurants around the resort centre and a couple of larger night clubs on the outskirts. There is no actual beach in Cesme town but the nearby satellite resort of Ilica [pronounced il-ig-a] more than compensates with its 3.5 Km long white powdered sand beach. The name Ilica means spa or hot spring and the best examples of the undersea sulphurous hot springs which made Cesme famous are actually located in Ilica. Although much smaller 32
Book online at www.sunway.ie or call 01 2311800
than Cesme, Ilica has developed as a resort in its own right with a good choice of shops, bars and restaurants. Some of the best hotels in the Cesme region are located in and around Ilica.
Ozdere and Claros The town of Ozdere is located less than 50 Km from Izmir airport and 40 Km from Kusadasi in an area which is largely undeveloped and unspoilt. With a backdrop of rugged mountains and a coastline that alternates between rocky, craggy cliffs and beautiful sheltered bays with sandy beaches Ozdere is generally favoured by holiday makers looking for a quieter more relaxed holiday. There are many shops, bars and restaurants in the resort which also has a long shingle sand beach with a paved promenade. Close to Ozdere lies Claros where the ruined Temple of Apollo dating back to the seventh century BC has been excavated along with a small temple thought to have been dedicated to Artemis.

recently excavated temple of Apollo at Claros is just 5 Km from the hotel.

The vast range of facilities and activities on offer makes the hotel an ideal choice for couples and families looking for a very special holiday.

Complaints made after the holiday should be in typed written format and addressed to Sunway's head office in Dun Laoghaire, Dublin within 28 days. HEALTH If you have any concerns regarding your health or fitness you should contact your doctor for advice. It is your responsibility to bring to the attention of your insurance company any pre-existing illness prior to travel. At the time of writing no inoculations are compulsory to enter Turkey. Stomach upsets are frequently caused due to over exposure to the sun, unusual food, cold drinks, alcohol and too much fresh fruit (particularly orange juice) and other factors which our bodies are unaccustomed to. The nearer you can adhere to your usual routine the less chance you have of suffering from stomach complaints. Bring simple remedies from home to help you in the event of tummy and minor discomforts. We advise passengers not to put important medicines in their checked in luggage. In the event you do become ill while on holidays we are happy to say the standard of private health care in Turkey compares favourably with Ireland and all our selected hotels and accommodations have an English speaking doctor on 24 hour call. Please note that form EU111 does not apply in Turkey. Private health care is expensive so it is essential you arrange appropriate travel insurance. COMFORT AND SAFETY Experiencing a different way of life is part of the enjoyment and intrigue of travelling abroad. However, it is worth remembering that when travelling abroad you will also be experiencing different cultures, safety and hygiene standards together with a different attitude to that which you are used to at home. It is widely recognised that Irish standards are amongst the highest in the world and many developing countries including Turkey have yet to adopt the level of transportation, accommodation and service standards that we take for granted. It is often difficult, for example, to directly compare local hotel

grade systems to our own 'star' ratings. In some cases, local regulations, which are aimed at preserving the historic nature or aesthetic beauty of property, can prevent a hotelier from providing a level of fire safety we are familiar with. At Sunway Holidays we are actively working to raise overseas safety standards and will do our best to make sure your holiday is as safe and trouble free as possible, however we urge you to familiarise yourself with fire and safety notices at your hotel. Please note: • most pools and beaches do not have lifeguards, • We recommend people drink only bottled water while in Turkey MEALS In general where breakfast is included it is Turkish style continental breakfast. Half board supplement refers to a buffet dinner unless otherwise stated and in a minority of hotels, lunch may be substituted for dinner. Most hotels in Turkey do not cater specifically for persons with special dietary needs such as celiacs or vegetarians. EXTRAS Many of the facilities advertised in the hotels and apartment properties are payable locally including but not limited to wellness, beauty, massage, hairdressing, safety deposit, internet, fax, telephone, tennis, pool tables and other games. These and any other costs such as restaurant and bar bills must be paid directly to the hotel either at the time of use or prior to departure depending on the policy of your selected accommodation. INSECTS, DOGS AND CAT Ants, cockroaches and other insects are commonplace in warmer climates and are not a sign of poor hygiene. Remember in resorts dogs and particularly cats are a regular feature, encouraged by visitors who feed them scraps. Hands should be washed after contact with animals. COTS Cots and high chairs in some hotels and residences may not be up to your usual standard, so we would advise you to check them carefully prior to use. Charges for the use of cots can be levied by the hotel.

result of your late arrival we will do our utmost to offer you an alternative way of getting to your resort, but all costs incurred will be your responsibility. If we are unable to offer you alternative flights, full cancellation charges will apply. Please check that your passport and/or papers are in order for travel. Seat only passengers must reconfirm their return flight 48 hours prior to departure. If you choose to book within 2 weeks of departure a charge is levied to deliver your tickets to the Airport.
TRIPLE / QUAD / SINGLE ROOMS Some accommodations have twin or double rooms that can facilitate an extra bed or beds, it should be noted that these beds are either convertible sofa beds or camp beds. Space will be limited in most cases. Single rooms are limited, may be inferior in quality and may not have balconies and can be smaller than twin rooms. The supplement payable for a single is for the convenience of having a room to oneself.
ACCOMMODATION AND RESORTS We have done our utmost to be accurate in our accommodation and resort descriptions but due to maintenance, refurbishment, low season, bad weather, public holidays and religious festivals, sometimes facilities and entertainment may be temporarily withdrawn without notice. Information on public holidays and religious festivals are available from the relevant embassy.
BAGGAGE It is your responsibility to ensure that all your belongings are recovered from the airport on your arrival and placed on the correct transfer coach or taxi and also to ensure the same from your hotel on your return journey home. Only one piece of hand luggage per person weighing 5kgs or less is permitted in the aircraft cabin. At present 20kgs is allowed per adult (check your allowance on your ticket). Passengers intending to carry special items of luggage such as wheelchairs, medical appliances or equipment, windsurfers, bicycles, golf clubs etc should advise us at the time of booking as we must request carriage of same from the airline and this may not always be granted. Please note that oversized baggage that exceeds the specified limit will be subject to surcharge from the airline. The carriage and delivery of your luggage rests with the relevant air carrier. Should your luggage be delayed, your Sunway representative will assist you in liaising with the air carrier regarding the retrieval of your luggage. Unfortunately due to the nature of air transport, a passenger's luggage may not be ultimately delivered. It is important that you understand that airlines limit the level of compensation, which they will pay you in such circumstances; equally Sunway's Travel insurance policy contains limits in relation to lost luggage. Clients should bear these limits in mind when packing their luggage and should make enquiries with their home insurers where they believe the value of their luggage would exceed such limits. We strongly recommend that all money, jewellery and other valuables be carried with you at all times and, subject to airport security regulations, you carry a supply of any essential medicines sufficient for your journey and until you have time to get replacement supplies in the event of your luggage being delayed or lost.
HOTEL CLASSIFICATION IN TURKEY There are two separate systems of hotel and touristic accommodation licensing in Turkey. One is administered by the Ministry of Tourism and is based on the internationally recognised star system. The other is administered by the Local Authorities and simply grants a licence without any rating. However even the Ministry star rating system can not be directly compared with those of other countries as each country applies different criteria. Where a property has a ministry of Tourism classification we have included this for information.
VACATING ROOMS On the day of departure most hotels require you to vacate your accommodation mid morning or noon so that it may be prepared for the arriving guests. Some of these hotels do provide courtesy rooms.
PERSONAL SAFETY Be careful when out and about, watch your handbag, wallet and camera, do not carry passports or more cash than you think you may need. We urge you to use the safe deposit boxes in your hotel/apartment for all valuables. Use caution as you would at home. Make sure that you have adequate insurance cover and are familiar with the procedures required. TICKETS AND TIMINGS Tickets are issued approximately 14 days before departure. Please thoroughly check tickets as flight timings are subject to change. Check in time is 2 hours before departure. If you miss your flight as a
SUNWAY HOLIDAYS OWN ACCOMODATION RATINGS For your general information and guidance we have included our own Sun ratings on all properties. These are based on our own knowledge and experience of the individual properties and on feedback from our clients and reflect a combination of accommodation quality, facilities, standard of service, atmosphere etc. An individual rating might not be considered objective if looked at only in the context of one particular aspect and we would therefore invite all prospective customers to read our property and resort descriptions carefully and to contact us prior to booking if they have any particular questions or requirements. OUR CHOICE ACCOMMODATION ‘Our choice’ holiday options are ideal for clients who want the best deal and are flexible. We choose your accommodation for you and will confirm the grading and resort on your invoice. Your accommodation may or may not be featured in our brochure. Upon arrival you will be met by one of out airport representatives who will confirm you holiday details. You will be provided with the usual resort services. If you have particular requirements or a clear idea of where you want to stay we recommend that you choose one of our names accommodations. If you are happy to leave the choice to us, then this is the ideal holiday for you.
is generally allocated by the hotels by reference to the date of booking so early bookers have a better chance of being facilitated. However, no request can be guaranteed. HOTEL FACILITIES Where air conditioning is provided it may either be individually controlled [you have full control of operating times and temperatures in your own room/apartment] or centrally controlled [the hotel decides when it operates for all rooms and the temperature settings]. Electricity power cuts and periods of low voltage are not uncommon in Turkey and certain services such as lifts and air conditioning may not operate during these periods. Even when a hotel has its own generator which provides normal power for most items please note air conditioning systems do not generally work without mains electricity It must also be noted that some hotel facilities may, at certain times not function fully. This may be due to many reasons e.g. a pool being emptied or cleaned. These decisions are part of normal hotel running and are at the discretion of the hotel management. If, however, we are made aware of any closure or of any other alterations to the hotel description, we will pass this on to you as soon as we can. In some hotels TVs may not receive English channels. Please note minimum numbers may be required to operate certain clubs or organised events and entertainment programmes may be curtailed during periods of low occupancy. NOISE/BUILDING WORK Neither the hotel or apartments used, nor Sunway holidays can accept responsibility for anything outside the accommodation's grounds. TIPPING Tipping is expected in bars and restaurants. ALCOHOL Most people like to indulge on their holidays however you should not drink alcohol before swimming and it should be avoided during sunbathing, since it causes dehydration. Never drink if hiring a car, Mopeds, Motorbikes or Jet Skis. Drunken behaviour in accommodation and on board aircraft can result in you being asked to leave the accommodation or the aircraft accordingly. In such cases our contract with you will cease and we will have no further
