Always with a smartphone or camera in hand, to freeze those moments and share them with the world. Of course, we have different demands for travel and holidays than the generation of our parents. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;ve been fans of the TUI BLUE concept for a long time now: holidays that offer comfort &#8211; but at the same time give us the freedom to personalise our time, to discover, to get to know the country and its people? Right up our alley! The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tui-blue.com\/en\/hotels\/tui-blue-sarigerme-park.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TUI BLUE Sarigerme Park<\/a> in Dalaman, which we visited for a week in May, is a good example.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23081\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23081\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23083 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand.jpg\" alt=\"tui blue child on the beach\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kind_am_strand-240x240.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23081\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Neon digs around the beach &#8211; there&#8217;s plenty of fine beach sand here for him<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TUI_BLUE_Sarigerme_Park\"><\/span>TUI BLUE Sarigerme Park<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>First and foremost: the hotel complex is ideally located for all kinds of adventure. With views of a long, sandy beach and exciting destinations (mountains! Coastal walks! Secluded coves!) in the immediate vicinity. The Dalaman region truly impressed us with its versatility &#8211; and the Blue Sarigerme was the perfect, comfortable base for our exploration tours. The resort is kept in a simple, modern design and radiates a value that made us feel right at home. This was already evident in small details, such as the high-quality reusable cups that are offered at the beach bar. The focus on sustainability, which resonates here, we really like. We&#8217;ve been trying for a long time to avoid plastic waste at home &#8211; why should that be any different while on holiday? TUI BLUE shows here: all-inclusive is also different. Another big plus for us: the technical amenities. In the entire hotel complex, you&#8217;ll find stable WiFi, loads of sockets, and USB slots for charging cell phone and camera batteries. Instagram story directly from the pool? No problem! Writing emails from one of the covered daybeds on the beach, with a cocktail in the other hand? Hell yes!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23089\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23089\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23091 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg.jpg\" alt=\"tui blue sarigerme park pool\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_pooljpg-240x240.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23089\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The extensive area offers many great viewpoints (literally and figuratively)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_week_in_the_daybed\"><\/span>A week in the daybed?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Incidentally, the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/relaxation-daybeds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">daybeds<\/a> are the epitome of comfort for me. These private, exclusive sunbathing areas (covered, with pillows, private fridge, and sockets!) situated directly on the beach, really are the perfect, idyllic retreat for couples and families. I would&#8217;ve liked to spend the whole week here, with my two boys at my side, complete with a laptop in one hand and a cold cocktail in the other &#8211; and the fresh sea breeze on my face. If it weren&#8217;t for the exciting region that awaits right outside the front door of the TUI BLUE Sarigerme&#8230; And for that it pays to leave your daybed for at least a day or two, believe me! For two days, we borrowed a rental car from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tuicars.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TUI Cars<\/a>, which we used to set out to explore the previously unknown region. By the way, if you need ideas, you can use the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/tui-blue-app\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BLUE App<\/a>, which will provide you with nice suggestions for destinations in the area. (You can also order room service via the app, for example.)<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23085\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23085\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23087 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed.jpg\" alt=\"tui blue sarigerme park daybed\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_sarigerme_park_daybed-240x240.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23085\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ideally, we would like to spend the whole week in one of the daybeds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Theres_so_much_to_discover\"><\/span>There&#8217;s so much to discover!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We used one of our &#8220;mobile days&#8221; to explore one of the most famous sights in the region on our own: the ancient ruins of <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/dalyan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kaunos<\/a>, which are about an hour north of the hotel. If you don&#8217;t have a car, you can also view it as part of an on-site organised excursion. The royal tombs of the ancient Lycians were once embedded in rocks and are still very well preserved &#8211; a short journey through time! Also a boat tour through the adjacent, picturesque nature reserve with views of the ruins, waterfowl, and (with a little luck!) one or two <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/turtle-rehab-turkish-aegean\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sea turtles<\/a> is well worth it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23077\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23077\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23079 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug.jpg\" alt=\"tui blue kaunos excursion\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tui_blue_kaunos_ausflug-240x240.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23077\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kaunos is just one of many interesting destinations in Dalaman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But you can also feel the connection to land and culture in the TUI BLUE Sarigerme Park: the four restaurants serve mainly Levantine-Mediterranean cuisine with regional products. The Turkish specialties in particular were our favourites &#8211; and Neon has even developed a little love for Ayran here. But there are alternatives here: in addition to vegetarian and low-carb offerings, there&#8217;s even a whole &#8220;buffet island&#8221; for vegans.
