When you arrive
Transfers can be arranged from Dalaman airport and cost £25 one way for up to 3 people, £35 for 4-6 people (please indicate on booking form). On
arrival at the villas you will be shown Zeytin where
there will be some basic provisions in the kitchen.
A Turkish breakfast can be provided for the next morning,
if required.
All bed linen and bath towels are provided.
There will also be an information pack to help you
plan your holiday, and show you where the nearest
shops are.
The villa is tidied daily by Manzara staff, and bed
linen and towels are changed weekly.
Food
Eating out is part of the enjoyment of a
holiday at Zeytin: there is a good choice of restaurants
serving inexpensive, authentic Turkish food, from
the excellent lunchtime fare of pide (the Turkish
equivalent to pizza) to riverside restaurants specialising
in fish dishes. There are also a number of supermarkets
that sell all the basics, and a few greengrocers.
Most people stock up on fruit and veg at the market
on Saturday (there is also a market at Koycegiz on
Monday). For meals at the villa, there is an outside
barbecue, and a four-ring gas cooker with full-size
oven.
