(Updated )All White...and shade of red.

UPDATED with Activity pictures.

The first day April 28th dinner was at a restaurent on the cliff over-looking the Meditteranean.

We took over the whole terrace - with a majestic view of the bay.



Morning of second day April 29th: Conferencing for 2 hours.





Afternoon of April 29th : Sight Seeing trip to a destination of own choice - I chose to visit the waterfall.

"mirror mirror on the wall...who is has more hair of them all?"

This hotel in Antalya where I am staying is unique and worth an entry to share its features.
For the last two days, I have been fascinated with its simplicity, authenticity, and beauty. Everything is in white, with shades of red or red lighting for effect - from its lobby to suites, from their sofas to their staff uniform.
The hotel does not have furniture other than matresses wrapped in white linens everywhere, even in the lobby. There are also ipods with headphone available for people to relax to.

I will be here until Monday - three more days to indulge in Reflecting, Rejoicing and Re-juvenating! Those three Rs is also the theme of the conference which I am runnging here for 200 managers from the company - flown on two charter flights. They will be arriving today.

Another unique feature is how I can view the activities in the lobby area, around the swimming pools and the beach from the telivision, using their cctv. Ladies, this is ever so handy to keep watch on your hubbies.....are they really with their men buddies when they left your hotel rooms?

Some pictures - I hope you can appreciate the unique ambience.







Lobby at 8.30pm. Note the couple in embrace!







Yours truely lazing around at the lobby lounge.








Bedroom of my suite 324.













Sofa in my room. Also note the matress on the balcony outside.....This hotel puts its residence into romantic mood with so many matresses everywhere!













The name of the Hotel is on the signage found in the elevator. Note the SPA. I went for a swedish massage this afternoon - it was bliss!



















Tomorrow real work starts. The group will be arriving. Look out to more posting and pictures about the conference.

    I have to agree with Syana, very relaxing ambiance. I read somewhere that says JLo, when she wants to stay at any hotels, she will insist that her room should be all in white. So JLo is a participant in ur workshop, izzit? Hehe..

    nowadays i am into white white and more shades of white... i think it's an age thing for me to not have too many colours and stuffs around me.

    that statue doesn't look half as good as that lady!

    and you've lost weight, right?

    Antalya, turkiye cumhuriati...

    I've only been to istanbul and i've yet to cover many places...but since the existence of Manal Bay somewhere southwest of turkey, i definitely be thinking of going there again and discover more of turkey, and maybe buying a property there in the future....

    3R...thats what a good break is all about, innit, bro?

    salam,

    ya Allah..merahnya makngah, mcm zaman dulu2 hehe. tema romantik hotel ni rupanya (kan best kalau kak lil boleh join sama)

    cantiknya surrounding..subhanallah.

    suka kerja mcm ni sbnrnya, di samping bekerja, boleh lawat negara orang..tp demi cinta pada keluarga, saya pendamkan kesukaan saya ni :D.

    p.s. saya setuju ngan pdt bro. sapa yg boleh bawak keta kat cairo nun, mmg boleh bawak keta kat mana2.

    manal...yes, ur idea of buying a property here, especially beach or seaside one makes good investment!

    The 3R was our conference theme to reward the team and to energize them for another excellent year.

    Yah, I already expected you to answer that way. :) Really,it is a pity. Beautiful hotel, nice scenery - LiL should have been with you. But what to do lah... children in school, they need their mum. There is always a "next time".
