Historical architecture, ancient tombs, mud baths, beautiful beaches and delicious traditional cuisine are just a few of the things you can expect to enjoy when renting a serviced apartment or holiday letting in the port city of Marmaris.

Take a stroll along the promenade and discover some lovely boutiques selling traditional Turkish rugs and handmade leather sandals. Wander on a little further and you will reach the old quarter. Walk along the winding, ancient streets until you come to Mamaris Castle. This wonderful structure was built by Ottoman Turks around 600 years ago and has recently undergone quite extensive restoration work. Take a stroll around the beautiful gardens and then venture inside to view some thoroughly intriguing archaeological displays. Denizci Kultur Odasi, Sailor’s Cultural House, is also well worth a visit and here you can try your hand at some traditional nautical skills and crafts. A thoroughly interesting place.

Your serviced residence in Marmaris also gives you access to the Dalyan Mud Bath. Here you can bathe in the gloopy mixture and let it dry on your skin before showering off and taking a sulphur bath. Wonderfully therapeutic and great for the skin. Also very soothing if you have sunburn.

Your apartment rental in Marmaris is also just a short distance from Lycia where you can visit the Lycian tombs. There are numerous ancient tombs in Lycia from sarcophagi tombs to pillar tombs to tombs that were carved straight into the rock face to form extensive burial chambers. The entrance to the tombs were then carved to resemble the facades of traditional Lycian houses or temples. Look out for some of the beautiful sculptures and relief work that grace many of the Lycian tombs. They really are quite an incredible sight.

Icmeler beach is a quiet, laid back beach where you can spend the day soaking up the sunshine or enjoying a spot of water sport and taking full advantage of the clear, calm waters. There are plenty of vendors providing food and refreshments so don’t worry if you forget the picnic.

For a delightful place to eat that is within a short distance of your aparthotel or holiday let in Marmaris there’s the lovely Portofino Restaurant. Here you can enjoy some delicious traditional cuisine Al Fresco on the veranda. The service is excellent, the portions are generous and there are even complimentary appetizers. Make sure you try the kebabs, they are just superb.
