It's certainly slow this year. We've seen fewer enquiries this year than last. However I wouldn't be too down. Last year was similar, we didn't have any bookings until March and we were almost fully booked by the end of April! Maybe more people are looking for late deals on flights?

Your photo descriptions could be a bit better, instead of 'One of the pools' make it 'Impressive pool', instead of 'Double bedroom' make it 'Air conditioned master bedroom', 'Kitchen for self catering' can be 'Fully equipp...

hi, I have an apartment in Turkey too. I have my own site which has brought me a lot of bookings. I think a well presented website is a must for getting more bookings. I have also created another site which offers advertising for apartments and villas in turkey.

WOW! Thanks for all the suggestions, I agree with much of the advice and have addressed a number of the issues. A great help!
The only issue I couldn't replicate was the 'things to do' problem, can anyone else replicate this?
