My/Our Holiday Opinion:
The Korumar hotel was advertised as a 5* hotel. We didn't find this to be the case - more along the lines of a UK 3*. However, this was (having spoken to other tourists in the area) the best hotel to be had in Kusadasi and, although not what we were expecting, the hotel was clean, comfortable and had fantastic views over the bay to Kusadasi harbour.
Kusadasi itself is a much larger and very much more "pushy" town than other places we've visited in Turkey (Bodrum, Altinkum) and this can sometimes get a little out of hand, especially the local shops. However, for a complete change of pace a ferry trip to the Greek island of Samos is a must - if only to get away from all the hasstle.
A trip to Ephasus for the day is a fascinating tour back in time and, with an English speaking local tour guide we got a further insight into life as it was 1500 years ago.
Aquafantasy is another trip not to be missed - especially if you have children. It's clean, safe and above all great fun for people of all ages.
Kusadasi is a great place for shopping and sight seeing - however, if it's a quiet beach holiday you're after - this just isn't the plac
e to be.
