Kuasadasi for a week. by Regal

This resort in Turkey is a busy place to stay , it is littered with multiple shops , restaurants and bars , there are two beaches called Ladies beach and town beach in the resort itself and a few more just a short bus ride away , i would suggest going to Pygale beach as it is not very busy and has great amenities such as beach cafes etc.

The main area of night life is Bar street which consists of mainly Irish and English themed bars as expect English prices . For me though i preferred to stay away from the center and went to the many bars and restaurants typically Turkish where the food is better and plentiful and the drink cheap.The main road is very busy and leads down to the center of town where all the main amenities are but along this road are located many bars and restaurants with great atmospheres although the music can be a little load , also there are many kebab shops which are very cheap and i would buy one on my way back to the hotel to give to the two local stray dogs which soon became best friends.

The town itself has many Turkish holiday makers and Europeans and little English there. The locals are very friendly and willing to help in anyway possible and of course all speak English.

Kusadasi is in a great location for visiting the many ancient sites which many are only a short bus journey away such as Ephesus , Selcuk , Didyma , Preine , Militos and Scringe .

The bus to Ephesus cost about £2 and is worth seeing . We got an excursion to Didyma , Milietos and Priene at a local company for £17 with a guide , dinner and air-con bus which also stopped at Altinkum on the way back , great price and a must do activity.

Kusadsi has little or no crime and was very safe to venture alone ,our hotel the Fortin was in a residential area in a darkly lit area but yet i felt very safe in fact i never even thought about it. We got no hassle from the shops and restaurants either as the police had made a crack down on this policy.

Overall a great location for those willing to see the ancient surrounding sites but a little busy and crowded through the day.

Enjoy it for what it is. It isn’t Istanbul. It’s a beach town where a lot of shopping happens. Culture is a little trickier to find, but it is there, in the conversations, in the interaction, in the glass of apple tea.

This was a stop on a European cruise that I went on last summer. We decided to hire one of the taxi drivers to take us to Mary’s house, Ephesus, etc. In my opinion, it was a little pricey, but worth the air conditioned comfort! He also took us to a leather shop his brother owned where we were able to haggle for some great deals on turkish leather. It pays to pay the locals to show you around!
