First Time to Turkey

We are looking for a holiday at the end of may, we are wanting to go for sun, not too expensive but not overcrowded which may mean not a large chain hotel company, we would like nearish to an airport so its not a huge treck after we land, we have a 13 year old son so near a waterpark would be great. We know we will leave the hotel for whiles at a time to explore but dont want somewhere so busy we feel we cant find our own little corner to relax because obviously we cant be away from the hotel all the time, we like the idea of quaint and queit as long as its within walking distance to a beach and sites, eg places to eat etc as well

i know thats a lot but would be good to be answered by someone who has been to turkey a lot

    Look at Oludeniz - went last year and loved it so much we are going again this year - gets great reviews, not too crowded, uncommercialised too and the shopkeepers/restaurants arnt pushy.
