It's lovely and romantic sat there looking across to see the moon rise over the mountains across the water with a gentle breeze and the black guy singing Frank Sinatra songs and so on.

It's the kind of place that one sort of expects to see famouse faces, yes I know I was there but I don't count!

It has the most fantastic bar you can imagine as well, it is a rather expensive place but I suppose you get what you pay for!

The meals are superb but rather fancy ("If you know what I mean 'Arry") I have seen the place many times when passing on the dolmus and thought we must give it a try sometime, so curiousity satisfied I will reserve it for extra special occasions.

Here I met a masseur who made me the massage oil. Since then I always think of him. I do not remember hIS name but I remember his appearance.
That day, I went there in the morning with Kastalia club and I was the last of the Italian group to do the massage.
Do you know someone who works here as a masseur? I would like to contact this masseur.
can you help me? thanks ]]> Alanya Forum perla nera http://www.turkishliving.com/forums/alanya-forum/40159-informations-sultan-s-hamam.html http://www.turkishliving.com/forums/alanya-forum/40091-alanya-castle-bombings.html Thu, 19 Aug 2010 19:19:59 GMT I would like to explain that the bombings that take place at the same time every evening at about 7.50pm are cannon's being fired at prayer time as it is Ramazan. Ramazan is a time for Muslim's to fast. The cannon noise informs all Turkish people to break fast as this is the time of sunset.

Last week whilst sunbathing on Kleopatra Beach I did hear a BIG explosion. I am not sure as to whether this was a bomb or a gas explosion as most of the locals confimed that it was the latter.:37: ]]> Alanya Forum Shen http://www.turkishliving.com/forums/alanya-forum/40091-alanya-castle-bombings.html http://www.turkishliving.com/forums/alanya-forum/40024-furniture-shops-mahmutlar.html Tue, 17 Aug 2010 19:25:21 GMT Hi Anyone know of any cheap (if there is such a thing) furniture shops within 5 or 10 miles of Mahmutlar.
