Me and 2 Mates booked up for Marmaris last night...

5* All inclusive for 14 nights - 24 hour bar etc so we can drink till when ever

Holiday cost us £535 each, that's all in - transfers etc etc, I've paid already for the holiday but one of my mates is scrapping the barrel just to get the £535 together intime!

Me and Mate #1 can comfortably take £5-600 to spend whilst we're over there but i'm doubting wether we'll need that much?! - Bear in mind Mate #2 is scrapping to get the £535

We're all inclusive so we won't pay for food/drink whilst in the resort - but we'll be venturing into town late on a night.... will we actually need £500 ?

Anybody been 2 weeks all inclusive to a place like Marmaris (turkey) ? And how much did you spend whilst you were all inclusive

Answers on a beer mat

Id say 400-500 is a bit excessive if its all inclusive.. Id take about 350ish.. and if ineeded any more id just get it out over there?

You should be fine with £500, like you said your all inclusive, so you havn't gotta get food/drink at the hotel and Marmaris is a pretty cheap place! You'll love it I went with some mates and it was a riot, Have fun there Buddy!

If your in inclusive you'll only need around a few hundred i'd've thought tbh.

We won't be eating at the hotel every night, and we'll be drinking in town most nights

£500 seems a reasonable amount then?

Suppose there's no harm in taking it, can always change it back

VTrapid... were you all inclusive? We won't be hiring mopeds either

Personally wouldnt do all inclusive, dont see the point in staying in one place all the time on holiday. Its all about doing different things.

Allinclusive to someone exotic would be ok as you are very limited to things you can do off site so to speak.

When i went to magaluf for 2 weeks with the lads i spent about £1500, that was £100 a day. But wasnt all inclusive.

not sure what it means inclusive and exclusive but i had to supply my own food and drink ... only paid £150 to go...

didnt eat much when i was out there anyway probably like 2 meals a day and alot of sleeping and drinking lol

mopeds are the best things in turkey 125cc and using them on the local motorway at 85mph overtaking cars:P

brilliant will go back cant wait for next summer:)

that £500 is almost 2 months worth of budget on my next trip away.

i did 3 weeks in thailand in janurary and that cost me £1200 for everything (drinks food accomodation, flights, taxis, moped hire, gifts, women etc)

Really couldn't refuse the all inclusive for that price Leckie... £535 for 2 weeks 5* all inclusive is too good to turn down? Chill by the pool... free food and drink 24 hours a day

We'll be going into marmaris centre for the nightlife but other that it'll be round the pool most the time with a beer

Everything is dirt cheap in Turkey so i really think £500 will go a LONG way - 80% of the time i'll be tucking into food during the day at the hotel then it'll be a dirty take away at 6am!

5* in Turkey is better than 3* in Tuekey i know that much....

£535 for 2 weeks in the sun, unlimited food and more importantly - Alcohol

The question i'm asking is.... Once i've eaten and i'm on my way to being shit faced... will £500 do me?

Cheers mate, i thought we'd only need a few hundred as it's only a few drinks in the clubs we'll be havin - and the odd meal here and there

Defo not £500 worth!

Moneywise you should be fine mate. :)

I'm going to Malia for 2 weeks. Bricking it about spending money. I'm pretty strapped for cash at the moment and have heard it's silly prices out there. :( :( :(

Im off to marmaris on 11th July for a week £275 each, im taking £300 spending money. taking bit of turkish lira and rest english as apparently they like english money out there.
Personally i would say £500 - £600 is bit excessive as your all inclusive, the whole point of all inclusive is to be hotel based. Thats why i chose to go self catering as the food is ment to be really cheap out there. If you were planning on going out drinking and eating prob would be better to go self catering then the money you saved could have gone towards your spending money.

Sure your have good time though, take advantage of free drinks before you head of in to town. Maramris is ment to be really good, my bf went couple years ago he went white water rafting, quad biking paraglinding.
