Resorts - a kind of "chip" in Turkey. You do not have to go outside the hotel territory for the whole vacation. Unless, of course, your hotel is on the first line from the sea. So, looking for a suitable place to stay in Turkey, you should pay attention to the hotels, in the name of which there is the word "resort".
But there are many hotels that are excellent resorts in themselves and do not need additional advertising. In this article we will consider one of them. It is called Marti La Perla 4 *.
Turkey, or rather its coast, is divided into regions: the Mediterranean, Aegean and Black Seas. Marmaris, in the vicinity of which the hotel described by us is located, is an amazing city. It is unique in that it is located near the confluence of the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. To look at how the azure and ultramarine waters of the two water areas combine, excursions come. But those who live in the village of Icmeler can observe this bewitching phenomenon even from the window of their room. We get a little ahead. Let us, in order, describe all the qualities of the Marty La Perla Hotel.
Where is the hotel located
Address Marti La Perla 4 *: Turkey, Icmeler (Marmaris). The place itself is a resort village (formerly fishing), which has recently entered the city limits. It is located on the Mediterranean coast. This is a bustling youth resort, famous for its Bar Street. If you want your vacation to be incendiary, you need a hotel near the city center. A little further to the west stretched the resort area. It stretches for many kilometers along the coast.
The areas of Marmaris Turunch and Icmeler are favorite places for lovers of a quiet family or romantic vacation. But it cannot be said that it is impossible to have plenty of fun. True, all entertainment is concentrated on the territory of resort hotels. Icmeler is famous not only for its beautiful sandy beach, but also for its thermal springs.
Love this area of Marmaris and divers. There are underwater caves in the Mediterranean. You can also watch turtles, octopuses and other animals in its habitat. The only negative location is the distance from Marmaris.

The concept of "16+". What does it mean?
In Turkey, all residents are very child-loving. And in this country there are many hotels where the most excellent conditions are created for children and even for babies. But the administration of the Marty complex rightly reasoned that sometimes people want to take a break from their children - theirs and especially those of others. Thus, the hotel area was divided.
“Resort de Luxe” positions itself as a family hotel. There are many children's pools, playgrounds, etc. But in Marti La Perla Hotel 4 * (Marmaris) only those who have reached the age of sixteen are lodged. You will not hear any crying at night, noise and din at the pool, whims in the restaurant.

There are few Russians here. Whether this is good or bad is up to you. You will find a large number of compatriots in the neighboring Marty Resort de Luxe 5 *.

In recent years, the hotel rating has grown. Tour operators even designate her star status as “4+”. The staff is very helpful and friendly. After your first visit, bartenders will remember your name and what drinks you prefer. At the entrance to the restaurant you are helpfully led to a table.
