I find the most useful and interesting information is the Kalkan news. I was particulary interested in the road improvement info.

In our analysis, we may extrapolate the data where we believe it makes sense. Remember that each of our 490 respondents represents a household or group of people. We therefore estimate the total number represented is over 1,300 people.  Important factors here are climate, people, location and food. Not much movement here since last year's survey, except for 'value for money', which is up by 7%.
For the remainder, clearly two weeks just isn't enough! About 60% of people coming on holiday spend more than 2 weeks in Kalkan.
2.2a Describe your economic contribution to Kalkan, (your spend), in 2011. Exclude property purchase. Most of our respondents spent more in 2011 than they did in 2010. 2.3 How many days do you expect to be in Kalkan over the next 12 months?  The profile is similar to that for question 2.2. Although 7.5% say they won't be coming to Kalkan in 2012. 2.3a Describe your planned economic contribution to Kalkan, (your budget), for 2012. Exclude property purchase.  Around 45% say they will spend the same, with 28% saying they will spend slightly more, and only 10% set to spend significantly more this year. 7% say they won't be spending anything, which ties in with Q2.3 above. 2.4 What is your favourite month to be in Kalkan?  Over one third of people think September is the best month to be in Kalkan. The second most popular month is June, (21%), followed by May, (15%). Not much change from last year's survey. For residents in our survey, 58% preferred the months of September, October and November. 2.5 When you last travelled to Kalkan, if you came from abroad, where did you enter Turkey?  Around 87% of foreigners travelling to Kalkan come via Dalaman, which is about 3% up on last year. Nearly 6% came via Antalya - the same as last year. 2.6 When you last travelled to Kalkan, what form of transport did you use to reach Kalkan town?  More than half of Kalkan visitors, (63%), use an airport transfer service - up from 57% last year. Only 22% chose to drive themselves, compared to 29% last year. 2.7 In the last 12 months, how many nights did you spend in a Kalkan hotel(s)?  22% of respondents used a hotel in 2011, down 6% from last year's survey. Of the 110 respondents who did use a hotel, 68% came to Kalkan as a couple. 2.8 If you used a hotel(s) in the last 12 months, how would you rate the overall experience? 94% of hotel guests who expressed an opinion in our survey were either very satisfied or satisfied, which is 6% up on last year's survey. 2.9 In the next 12 months, how many nights do you plan to spend in a Kalkan hotel(s)?  19% of respondents said they planned to use a hotel in 2012, which is 3% down on 2011 numbers. 2.10 In the last 12 months, how many nights did you spend in a rented Kalkan villa(s)?  18% of respondents used a villa in 2011, up 2% from last year's survey. 2.11 If you rented a villa(s) in the last 12 months, how would you rate the overall experience? 98% of villa renters who expressed a view in our survey were either very satisfied or satisfied, which is 5% up on last year's survey. 2.12 In the next 12 months, how many nights do you plan to spend in a rented Kalkan villa(s)?  17% of respondents said they planned to use a villa in 2012, which is 2% up on last year's survey. 2.13 In the last 12 months, how many nights did you spend in a rented Kalkan apartment(s)?  24% of respondents used an apartment in 2011, up by 8% on last year's survey. 2.14 If you rented an apartment(s) in the last 12 months, how would you rate the overall experience? 86% of apartment renters who expressed a view in our survey were either very satisfied or satisfied, which is 3% down on last year's survey, and 8% down on our 2010 survey. 2.15 In the next 12 months, how many nights do you plan to spend in a rented Kalkan apartment(s)?  22% of respondents said they planned to use an apartment in 2012, which is 5% higher than we reported in last year's survey. 2.16 If you booked a 2011 holiday through a tour company, how would you rate their overall service? Only 61 respondents (12.5% of our survey group), said they used a tour company. Of these, 92% were either very satisfied or satisfied with the service provided; 4% up on last year.
2.17 In the last 12 months, how many restaurants or cafes did you visit?
Maybe next year we can add a survey question about how may kilos you put on after each visit to Kalkan! Read an introduction to the survey. More survey results:
