However, the village on the seashore began to turn into a large-scale resort only in the nineties of the last century.
Currently, Didim is a popular resort,which is very dynamic. There is no own airport in the city, so tourists have to use the services of nearby airports - (Milas-Bodrum is 70-85 kilometers, Daclaman - 125 kilometers, Izmir - 145 kilometers).

Local Attractions
Didim has an archaeological complex.An ancient legend says that the city is the birthplace of Apollo, and therefore the main attraction is the temple of Apollo. Its construction was begun in the 8-4 centuries. BC. However, it was never finished. The temple did not manage to become the eighth wonder of the world. He was to become the twin of the famous Temple of Artemis at Ephesus. Two columns, bas-reliefs, stone statues, fountains have survived to this day.
Tourists will be interested to see the ruins.old stadium, where in ancient times held all sorts of competitions. No less interesting for tourists will be visiting Lake Bafa. Didim has a good location for excursions to the sights of the Aegean coast. Just an hour from it is the famous Ephesus, famous for its ancient monuments and natural beauty. It will be no less interesting for tourists to visit Milet, Pamukkale, Bodrum, Therme Phatsetiny, Gumuldur and Kusadasi.
Недалеко от городка Дидим расположен античный Prien city, which is ranked among one of the twelve most famous and ancient cities of Asia. The policy is incredibly well preserved to this day. And now serves as a vivid example of the buildings of the Hellenistic period. Prien experienced unprecedented heyday, but later lost all meaning. Why this happened is not known exactly. There are only a few assumptions about this. The city existed until the eighth century, and later turned into an unremarkable village. At the same time, the city was perfectly preserved and is considered the best example of ancient architecture.
One of the most interesting historical monuments in Didimis the "sacred road." This stone path dates from the 4th century BC. At one time, it connected the temples and was built by the Roman Emperor Troyan. Once it was all paved with expensive red marble. It is believed that the once walking tour along the path took about four days. In antiquity, marble statues decorated the roadside. Among them were male and female figures, as well as lion statues. Currently, they are all in the British Museum. Later, several more statues were found during the excavations, which are exhibits of the museum in Istanbul. Of course, now the “sacred road” does not strike the imagination of tourists with its unsurpassed grandeur, but a tour of it will allow you to become better acquainted with the history of Turkey.

Reviews of Club Tarhan Beach 5 * (Turkey, Didim)
Speaking about the hotel, you definitely wantrefer to the reviews of tourists who visited it in 2016. Currently, Club Tarhan Beach Hotel has rather contradictory reviews. And for good reason. In the recent past, the five-star complex was a wonderful and worthy resting place that has long been loved by many vacationers. However, it should be noted that in May 2016, there was some reorganization. And the hotel passed into the hands of a new owner.
Perhaps some of the shortcomings that have appeared here are related to temporary reorganization issues.
According to the guests of the complex, the hotel has a goodwell-groomed area with a small amount of green space. Upon arrival, the settlement takes place quickly and without delay. As for the rooms, here the opinions of tourists diverge. Apparently, an element of luck. Someone initially settled into excellent spacious rooms, while others get very close and uncomfortable apartments. However, for an extra charge, you will very quickly be transferred to a room of a higher category.
The decor of the apartments is quite acceptable.Daily cleaning is provided, as for the replacement of towels, they are changed almost every day. But the change of bed linen is carried out once every three days. Regarding the quality of cleaning, tourists express different opinions: some are satisfied, while others are not.
Club Tarhan Beach (Didim) positions foodas "ultra all inclusive". Many tourists choose this hotel because of this nuance. In general, the restaurant serves quality food, but not everyone is satisfied with the variety of dishes. According to All Inclusive, free drinks must be present. Guest reviews suggest that there are very few alcohol drinks in the assortment of bars, not even the simplest cocktails. All available alcohol is locally produced only. But on the tables there is always a lot of baking and sweets.
The hotel does not care about the internet.Wi-Fi only works in two places: the lobby and around the pool. As for the infrastructure of the complex, it is standard for such establishments. At the reception there is a currency exchange office (currency exchange can be done without leaving the hotel).
The hotel has excellent clean pools with an equipped recreation area. However, there is not enough space during the high season, so you have to take the sun beds early in the morning.
In the evenings, guests are entertained with show programs.however, animators spend them mainly in Turkish. More than half of the hotel guests are Turks, and the rest are guests from the post-Soviet space. The hotel also has a night disco.
Club Tarhan Beach is near the coast andhas its own beach. The coast has a beautiful sandy cover and a shallow sea, which is a great bonus for young tourists. Adults are not too happy with such a small approach, but for them there is a separate pier from which you can dive. The beach of the complex is not too large, in the peak season it is full of tourists. According to guests, sun beds and umbrellas need to be replaced, because they do not correspond to the level of the hotel. Moreover, during the period of mass races they are clearly not enough, vacationers have to take places early in the morning. The sea in Didim is warm enough due to the warm and mild climate. True, there is often a disturbance on the surface, but this does not interfere with swimming, since the sea has a shallow approach. Given the characteristics of the coast, we can conclude: the resort is a great place for a family holiday with kids. But the active companies of friends here will also be fun, given the amount of entertainment that offers not only the local coast, but also numerous sightseeing tours.
Instead of an afterword
Club Tarhan Beach – это пятизвездочный отель, family oriented with children. The complex is located in a quiet suburb, away from the hustle and bustle. The proximity to the beach and the excellent warm sea guarantee a good holiday.
