I don't know about the whole of the Ilica beach area but at the western end where this accommodation is located is very run down once you're off the main drag running parallel to the beach but the building itself was quite smart looking. There were what looked like a few private villas adjacent that were looked after. Unfortunately, the interior didn't live up to the exterior.
To be brief;
Hairdryer in the bedroom caught light, it was resting on the bed (not blowing) while I brushed my hair and fortunately I noticed before the bed went up in flames.
The bedsheet had several holes in it and along with the smelly and lumpy pillows needed replacing, as did some of the stained towels.
The apartment was very dim owing to the fact that half the bulbs were missing or on their way out.
The shade on the single bedside lamp was broken through on all four sides and needed instant relegation to the dustbin.
The indoor table wouldn't balance properly because one leg was significantly shorter than the rest.
The bath was stained and marked and I would not have liked to use it. Fortunately, I prefer showers, but I still had to stand in it.
There was no toilet roll at all, usually there is at least one roll ready for when guests arrive at other similar types of accommodation.
The doors to the balcony would not shut unless locked. We eventually found the key secreted in the dresser drawer in the bedroom. Until then we were having to draw the wooden shutters across which was a bit of a palaver and didn't look very secure in any case.
One wall of the bedroom had obscure glass "bricks" forming a window of types. There was no curtaining or anything else to block out the early morning daylight.
Overall, the furniture is very tired and needs replacement. Some of the chairs around the pool were unusable.
Some of the tiny tiles from the inside of the pool had fallen away and were heaped up on the side...presumably awaiting re-application. They couldn't all have fallen off at once so they must have been gathering over quite a period of time. There is quite obviously no urgency or importance placed on maintenance. There was also a bit of green algae on the side of the pool above the waterline.

On the plus side;
The apartment is very spacious
The balcony was large overlooking the pool and adjacent villas (room 205, as I recall).
The shower worked better than it looked.
The bed was comfortable.

We subsequently moved on to another self-catering apartment in cesme proper (where they have the castle i mean) which is a much smarter area. Considering the accommodation there is much better with a bigger swimming pool but costing the same, I don't think the Yalcinkaya Tas Apart represents good value for money.

Dissappointing

Hi there, stayed here last week with friends. It's lovely and turkish - what more can I say.  The owner spoke excellent english and was very accomodating.  He cooked us turkish meatballs for dinner on the balcony which was excellent.  Breakfast too was fabulous.  Rooms were small but clean and the air conditioning was excellent.  I couldn't find anything bad to say as we were treated so well.  I would definitely come back.
