  • After a stay in Fethiye on the Turquoise Coast, we're ready to share exactly how much to budget for one month in Turkey and our thoughts on how expensive Fethiye is during the low season. The good news: We found Fethiye to be an exceptionally inexpensive place to chase the sun through the winter months.

If you'd like to know more about how we choose our AirBnBs, we have a whole video about it. bit.ly/2udSwCG
      We always book ahead of arrival - usually 1-2 months ahead is our comfort zone. I would book further ahead during high season, but in low season last minute planning seems to work out fine. Happy travels!
