Pinewood Apartments, Icmeler in Icmeler, Dalaman

Pinewood Apartments, Icmeler – Easy Self-Catering with an All-Inclusive Feel

Set back from the centre in a quiet pocket of Icmeler (8 km southwest of Marmaris), Pinewood Apartments puts you close to soft-sand beaches, pine-covered hills and a friendly promenade lined with cafes and bars.

The all-inclusive question (answered up front)

Pinewood is a self-catering aparthotel – there is not a formal all-inclusive programme here. Apartments come with kitchenettes and there is an on-site pool with a snack/pool bar setup; it is a simple, relaxed base rather than a resort with wristbands. This does not mean you cannot create your own all inclusive style holiday, read on to find out how.

Apartments & facilities

• ✔️ Apartments: self-catering units with kitchenette (hob, kettle, fridge/freezer), bathroom and balcony; housekeeping is provided.
• ✔️ Pool & sun terrace: lagoon-style pool with loungers and a casual snack/pool bar atmosphere.
• ✔️ Setting: a quieter spot, with shops and tavernas a short stroll away.

Eating & drinking

You will cook simply at home or wander out to the promenade for meze, grilled seafood and Turkish classics at fair prices. Pinewood has historically operated a poolside snack/restaurant area for easy lunches and relaxed evenings by the water.

Evenings

Icmeler keeps things mellow: sunset on the beach, harbour-side dinners and the odd live-music taverna. Fancy a livelier night? Marmaris is an easy hop along the bay.

Days out & low-effort fun

• ✔️ Aqua Dream Waterpark (Marmaris): slides, wave pool and free transfers from Icmeler when you book our package deal- a ready-made day with minimal faff.
• ✔️ Cleopatra (Sedir) Island boat trips: classic day out with swimming stops; many tours include lunch and hotel pick-up.
• ✔️ Dalyan River, mud baths & Turtle Beach: full-day cruise with lunch and transfers typically bundled.

Who it suits

• ✔️ Couples who want a quiet base with beach days and easy dinners
• ✔️ Families who like space, a pool and short, simple excursions.
• ✔️ Value-seekers who prefer paying only for what they will use.

Make it feel ‘all-inclusive’ with Cheap All Inclusive Holidays (without the wristband)

Even though Pinewood does not offer AI, you can still enjoy that easy, prepaid vibe:

• ✔️ Bundle the basics: book flights + private transfer + apartment in one go so the big costs are handled before you travel. (Distance/time above for planning.)
• ✔️ Plan meals smartly: mix light self-catered breakfasts in your kitchenette with a short list of favourite local restaurants; many boat trips include lunch, which covers a day’s main meal.
• ✔️ Pre-book entertainment: lock in a couple of ‘big’ days (waterpark with transfers; Cleopatra Island or Dalyan with lunch) so activities and some food are already paid.
• ✔️ Keep extras predictable: set a daily pot for snacks, beach drinks and dolmuş fares; top up only if needed.

Result: the same no-stress rhythm of an all-inclusive week, while keeping Icmeler’s local flavour (and often a lower bill).
