Club Ersan - , Turkey 

Have just returned monday 14th july from the Erson...As the hotel is quite nice , the location leaves a lot to be desired...have to travell by dolmus if you need to go out any where...and as the dolmus drivers are always on the phone whilst driving it can get a bit scary especially at night..The hotel seems to cater for any nationality other than british where food is concerned , and whilst you are being a good brit by standing in turn at the food counters the other non british guests seem to have a god given right to just ignore you and pass you as if you were not visible in their haste to get fed first ...Also if you require a sun lounger get up at the crack of dawn otherwise you will be dissapointed ,as towells seem to appear from thin air and remain on the loungers all day with invisible occupants ...On the good side i suppose the hotel is clean....We would not return to the erson , rather go to BLACKPOOL

My boyfriend and I (age 21 and 20) stayed in club ersan from 16th june- 1st july 2008 and we had the best holiday we've ever had! I truly dont understand why people have not written great reviews for this place. We arrived at the hotel at about 4 in the morning where we checked in and a very friendly bell boy showed us to our room which was extremely spacious, modern and clean with free air con. On our first day I was a little wary as many of the guests seemed to be European and i thought we'd be the only British there however I was wrong. As the holiday progressed we made great friends with many British people and every day my boyfriend joined in the organised football games where the french, dutch, russian, italian, british, spanish... every1 joined in and they became good friends. Many people complained about the bar closing at 12 and the lights going off however this did not seem 2 bother my self or my boyfriend or any of the people we met. It was easy to order loads of drinks or fill up empty bottles with drink before 12 oclock to keep you going til 3 in the morning. As for the lights going of, for the 1st 5 minutes it was annoying but then your eyes adjusted and you forgot there was no lights on. If they kept the lights on, no doubt people who were sleeping would complain. The bar staff were also really really friendly, as were all the staff in the hotel. The food here was great too. Every night was kind of themed either turkish, italian etc. There was a great variety of food. A big salad buffet then a buffet with different kinds of meat and chips and potatoes and rice pasta spaghetti soup bread and the deserts were to die for!! Through the day it was hard to get a sun bed at a pool, maybe because we never got up until 11am every morning, however the blue flag beach was great too where it was easy enough to get a bed. There was a big peer at the beach where you could jump of, floats to swim out to, great water sports and a boat trip every day for ?28. The beach is also lovely to lie at at night time and watch the sunset and a photographer there who is really nice and if you just say no he will be fine with that and just chat to you like friends. We decided to get photographs taken at the sunset (there great, really profesional) The animation team at the hotel were great too. soooo friendly and fun! Every night there show was brilliant, so funny. They also did an organised trip to halikarnas (not sure how 2 spell that) largest open air nightclub in europe. Every day they did aqua aerobics, pool games, dance classes, steps, darts and football. all great fun. Over all this hotel was amazing, dont no why people moan about the location and it being in the 'middle of nowhere' because thats just not true. there are buses parked outside to take you to bodrum and it's only 10 mins down the road. (these buses go til 5 in the morning so u can have a night out in bodrum or gumbet). If you are thinking of booking this hotel then do. You will have a great time! I'd love to go back! I dont know what I can write to explain how much i Loved this holiday ooop sala! (ul understand when u go)
