“September/October 2011 Update”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2011
5
people found this review helpful

Little change over the past few months.

New flooring in at least some of the rooms of the hotel. Otherwise, difficult to spot any change.

The Love Boat Restaurant provides excellent meals as ever, albeit the menu is less extensive than it was, main courses concentrating on pastas, chicken, seafood and steaks, all with the silver service.

The Sports Inn has something of an identity crisis. It is labelled as sports-featured spot, with sporting memorabilia, but only two of the main TV screens were showing sports in the evening, with the other two featuring what seemed to be the DJ’s creation of pop items, accompanying his very loud output. The earphones which used to be available to customers wanting to hear sports commentaries were said to be not working. The waiters had been cut from three to two, with one effectively going AWOL whenever a woman under 60 (years or waist inches) entered the bar, so service could be very slow at times.

There were not enough sunshades on the very hot sun terrace, presumably due to damage over the season. The bucket seats had been removed, leaving only the mattresses to lounge on. One elderly guest with a medical condition got down OK but was unable to get up again and had to be helped by a couple of guests (the nearby bar staff would readily have helped had they been asked). However, particularly as most of the guests are of advanced or advancing years, it really would be helpful if the mattresses could be replaced with proper sun loungers which are not so low, and also some sort of plastic seat.

This is a very friendly, family-run hotel, where one often sees the same guests (mainly getting on a bit) return year after year, especially in the spring and autumn, and I recommend it to particularly anyone wanting getting on a bit and wanting to try Turkey or Icmeler for the first time, at relatively low cost and on a no-frills but safe and pleasant basis. If you need anything whilst there, just ask your travel rep, or the hotel staff, or any of the guests, who are all British and most of whom have been there before.

Room Tip: Better views from upper floors to nearby wooded hills. Front rooms relatively noisy from early hour...

“Can wait to go back next year!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 September 2011

3rd year in Turkey and by far the best, Icmeler is lovely, clean and friendly and the Devamli was an excellent hotel judging by some of the hotels I have stayed in in Turkey. It was also a great location, 5 mins from beach and night life surrounding. Friendly staff and maids were excellent. Hassle free for most part...but wouldnt be Turkey if there wasnt some!!
Sports Cafe was were we spent majority of our holiday, excellent little place with friendly staff who made you feel really welcome. On the day before we left we had a "FREE" day at the pool bar, eating and drinking from early morning with the 10% card you get on arrival which was a bonus! Love boat was also good not the best in Icmeler but there were too many too choose from.
Pool was very cold, but excellent as temperature was between 45-50 degrees everyday. Jacuzzi and small pool upstairs were also great for a quick dip to cool off.
I would recommend anyone go to Icmeler and stay at the Devamli my husband and I will certainly be returing in the near future, we stayed for 11 nights, but will return for longer next time......was a pitty to have to leave....only good memories of this resort.

“Ideal in every way”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We have stayed in Icmeler on previous occaisions but decided to have a change of hotel. We chose the Devamli and we were not disappointed. We were greeted by staff who carried our cases to reception. Registration was simple and we were in our room within minutes. We had asked for a high floor and close to the lift. Our requests were met. The room had been cleaned and was light and airy. We did have some initial problem with the air con but it fixed very quickly and worked very efficiently for the rest of the holiday. Our wedding anniversary fell during our holiday and the room was decorated by the room sevice ladies.
We had taken the half board option which was a wise choice. Evening meals were taken at the adjacent "Love Boat" restaurant. The meals were more than adequate and the menu was varied and extensive. The waiters were pleasant and very efficient. We did not take wine with the meals as we thought that it seemed a little expensive. Beer and spirits were about right. The Turkish Breakfasts were good, again served in the Love Boat. The hotel bar (Sport Bar) is a pavement cafe/bar which serves good value snacks and lunches. The staff there are very welcoming and interested in how your holidays is going. A card is issued on arrival at the hotel and if presented with payment of bills points are collected which can be converted to discount both in the Sport Bar and The Love Boat.
We have decided that we will return to the Devamli very soon and I am sure that we will recieve a warm welcome and excellent service.

Room Tip: Some rooms are fitted with wooden framed beds. The beds are too big for the room and can damage shin...

“GOOD LITTLE HOTEL”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Just returned after a good holiday at a great price. I'll list the pros and cons.
Pros
1. Central location, not too far from the beach.
2. Very clean and comfortable when the a.c. had cooled the room.
3. Public areas excellent.
4. Breakfast in the Love Boat.
5. Nice clean pool.
6 Great staff.
7. Proximity to Love Boat and Sports Inn.

Cons
1. Rooms small. Ours was twin bedded.
2. Rooms on the west side i.e. overlooking deck, very hot in the evening and the a.c. struggled.
3. Sunbathing area i.e. deck is seperate from swimming pool and small.

On Icmeler beach you can walk the length of it going from sunbed to sunbed, they are so close. It gets vey busy.
