Turkey, is one of the places I have been looking at a lot recently. My friends rave about this country, and they like to just get to a resort and relax by the pool with their children. Not me, I like to explore, but with my ill health, I took their advise and booked a trip. I went to Izmir. I booked a little trip for a test to see how my body works. This is my first flight in over ten months. As my legs do not work properly I now have to use a wheelchair and a lift. I booked three nights to Izmir, because it was the cheapest all inclusive package for October and the flights times. I can not get up in the early hours or get back on the last flight anymore. So after booking online, I called them up and requested assistance. The gentleman was so helpful, not only did book the wheelchair and lift assistance. He also contacted the hotel to make sure, that our room would be accessible for me and not be on a high floor. This is where we stayed KoruMar Deluxe Hotel for three nights on an all inclusive package. I hope to have one morning or afternoon out visiting the nearest town but I am testing to just relax by a pool with a book. That was ultimately my goal

We arrived late on the afternoon and I was exhausted. I literally passed out as soon as we got to the hotel. Then woke up in time for dinner. I had only got up that morning at 5 am, but will my condition I am not sure that early flights are ever going to work for me. Something to keep an eye on. My first impression of this hotel in Turkey as though even though it is listed as a five star hotel, it felt like a tired three star one. The first day it was raining heavy.

And with the marble floors it was to dangerous to attempt to explore outside with my crutch. I did managed to sit by the pool and read. That was my goal but I was a little bit out of place. I could see the town of Kusadasi from our spot and I did want to go off and explore like I was used too.

So this was a nice introduction to Turkey and I do hope to return and actually see more of this beautiful country. The hotel was very accessible for me and my crutch, a lift down to the pool, a lift down to the cove. This was easier for me than all the stairs. The food was lovely, the hotel was nice as you could either swim in the pool or swim in the sea. This was a nice place.
