Hilton Dalaman Golf & SPA Hotel Sarigerme

Hilton Hotels Corporation announced plans to open the Hilton Dalaman Golf Resort & Spa on the south west coast of Turkey. Hilton's subsidiary, Hilton Worldwide Resorts, entered a franchise agreement with Gocay Tourism, Management, Investment, Transportation & Trade Inc to open the new hotel in mid 2009. It will be the company's first resort property to debut in the country.

Dalaman is considered to be one of Turkey's emerging tourism hotspots as a leisure and golf destination. Its Sarigerme Beach, where the new resort will be located, stretches four miles along the Mediterranean Sea with spectacular scenery.

The new Hilton Dalaman Golf Resort & Spa will include 384 guest rooms— including 52 spacious suites— a private beach and pier, health club and spa, state-of-the-art gym, interconnected beach-front swimming pools and outdoor terraces, as well as an 18-hole championship golf course and nine hole golf academy facility. The resort will also contain seven different restaurants and bars. For business travellers, the resort will also be able to offer year round, flexible meeting and conference space including fully equipped Hilton meeting rooms and a dedicated business centre facility. The resort will be only five miles from Dalaman International Airport.

Sarigerme Pisilis Ancient City

One must see the remains of the ancient city of Physilis ,located on the coastal flat land in a valley right next to the coastal area where the Sarısu Stream meets the sea .On the banks of the stream are the remains of late Byzantine era city walls and a little further ahead of the road is a Byzantine church with two of its columns still intact .

Name of Physilis is derived from Luwien and Carian language family. Probably it must mean ‘pine passage’ or ‘strait passage’. Strabon, father of the geography, mentioned in his writings that here is an ordinary town between Caunos and Calynda. It is supposed that here has been founded by Lelegs. Ruins are dated till Arcaic and Classic eras. In Roman period settlement came down till sea level. But during Arabian attacks, the people living here were obliged to take shelter in Acropolis.

This city is now buried under the shifting sand. As a result of tourism development carried out before excavation and the construction of hotels in the region the history of Physilis is to remain under the sands of Sarigerme.

*Yuo can't visit this ancient city , for more information please visit www.sarigermeturkey.com web site or Basket Travel Agency office in Sarigerme Village

DON’T DO IT WITH YOUR TOUR OPERATOR

Because, all the Excursions of Tour Operators are based on shopping, so they can charge after your shopping up to 30 % commission!!!. More or less every Trip includes Carpet and Jewellery Centres visites. You will be spending (if not by force) more than one Hour in these Shopping Centres rather then being out and doing some sight-seeing. Also we sould mention that you will pay at least 40 % more money for any Excursion, comparing to a Local Agency’s prices.
In brief, All the big Tour Operators, such as FIRST CHOICE, they nearly double charge for any Excursion and get at least 40 % commission for everything that you bought.
It is ridiculous but true. How would you call this event. For us, it is just RIP-OFF, DIRTY TRICK nothing else.

HOW DOES YOUR TOUR OPERATOR REALIZE THIS CHEAP AND DIRTY TRICK?

Whole your holiday long, you gonna see always, around you, Tour Operator REPS, trying to sell you the Trips. The first and the most important actors of this dirty trick. Watch for them !!!

They will tell you all sort of nasty stuff about the Local Agencys, just to book you. Before starting to sell you Trips, The first thing that they gonna tell you is Local Agencys do not have relevant insurance, second one is Local Agencys do not turn up to pick up clients etc. etc…
These ara all principal dirty traps of Tour Operators, especially FIRST CHOICE’S.

Actually, we don’t want to waste your time and behave in a way like FIRST CHOICE REPS do.

You can easily find out whole the REALITIES, happening inside and outside of your hotel. What you need is just a quick check some reviews, written in some prestigious wold-wide HOLIDAY AND TRIP ADVISER WEBSITES. And then pay a visit to Sarigerme Village, take our word for it, you will be suprized how much you can save.

PLEASE READ THE FALLOWING :

There are some Local Travel Agencys where you can book in several quality trips, which are nearly half price of FIRST CHOICE charge.
But, as Sarigermeturkey.blogspot.com , we feel ourself responsible to all our website’s visitors, therefore we can recommend you in complacency only one among the Local Travel Agencies in Sarigerme.
The one that we can recommend you in complacency is BASKET TOUR TRAVEL AGENCY, which is the first one on the left side when you enter to Sarigerme Village.

About Sarigerme

Sarigerme ,with its close proximity to DALAMAN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT and with more and more modern accommodation facilities being built , has found itself as a centre of tourism in a region fast becoming internationally popular.

The interaction of pine trees and the coast of Sarigerme ,with its fine sand against the backdrop of beautiful pine tress ,has continued for centuries .

It is the site of the ancient city of Physilis .This city is now buried under the shifting sand .As a result of tourism development carried out before excavations and the construction of hotels in the region the history of Physilis is to remain under the sands of Sarigerme .Sarigerme is the name given to the coast near the village of Osmaniye ,850 metres inland from the shore .

The name Sarigerme is linked to the Sarıçay stream that divides Osmaniye and the coast. The Sarıçay was once used as the transportation route for timber that was brought from the forest to the sea .To prevent the timber from escaping into the sea the stream’s outlet into the ocean was closed during times of timber transportation .Thus the name ‘Germe’ ,which means tightening or fencing .

Sarigerme ,with its seven kilometers of coastline ,shallow sea and the island of Babaada not too far in the distance ,is truly a perfect holiday haven .Up until recently the coast was a very messy place that has since been cleaned and cleared by an environmental association of the region .

Services such as food and drink outlets , showers , toilets , beach chairs , umbrellas and dressing cabins , as well as a dinghy service across the water to Osmaniye , are all available . Therefore ,all services required by the luxury hotels being supplied by the village of Osmaniye are also being supplied to the small motels and pensions as well .

There is a small charge at the entrance ,which goes towards the upkeep and services for the beach .The island of Babaada ,situated right off the coast ,is the place where boats and yachts playing between Marmaris and Göcek moor regularly .If you are confident it is possible to swim to the island and later climb to the top and have a bird’s eye view of the beautiful scenery surrounding you .

One can also take long walks along the coast .Do not think that your feet would burn or get hurt due to the heat as the water comes up to your ankles and the fine sand makes the walk most comfortable ,and has a massaging effect relaxing the muscles and also strengthening them
