 Your fav resort
One of the best beaches around in the med in my opinion when you take into consideration of the quality of the sand, water and lack of the bucket & spade brigade.
So what do you reckon is the best resort? If you have one tell us why? be interesting to see what we prefer the most.

Surely you can't vote unless you've been to all of the choices offered.
I've been to none and I still say Cesme!

I wouldnt go for any of them but would go for Gümüşlük but then again that probably falls under the Bodrum definition.

Gumusluk would come under Bodrum.
Mystery, There are 2 clues in the photo that it is NOT Bodrum.

It's not fair to choose where I live so it's Kaş for me- good scuba diving and not so pricey

I personally loved Bozcaada. Not quite as touristy as some of the others but beautiful beaches. Kas is nice for a clif type beach....Kemer is beautiful but, the resorts could be at any beach in the world...they are generic and full of tourists.  Tourists aren't bad but I like a more laid back vacation without the 'animation teams' pressing you to join silly games.

I've been to Antalya (Konyaalti), Bodrum (Yalikavak, Turgetreis, Turkbuku and Bodrum town itself), Cemsme(Ilica, Kum, Seaside and Alacati), Fethiye (Oludeniz)
I still love Cesme as a proper beach destination. The sea is a bit cooler though.
Is that Kum beach in Cesme in the photo Starman? I love Kum beach and parts of Ilica. I love it bec. it is not a resort per se.
For resort type place with cool clubbing scene, Turkbuku is the place for me. Tranquility doesn't come easy there though. If I want that, I will go to Boracay Beach in the Philippines and pick a quiet station.
I've heard awesome things about Gocek. I will go there next summer for sure.

The beach is in Datca as Glitter mentioned but as you can see there are not tourists but there was a couple of louts from northampton there and one of them had a nasty habit of nicking my beer and pide.
