It seems with the Turkish Lira dropping like a stone (over 8 lira currently), lots of people are booking up Turkish holidays to take advantage. Is there any anecdotal evidence from anyone who has been their recently if the Holiday resorts / traders are hiking up their prices because of this and negating the favourable exchange rate?

I doubt it. They'd have to change all the Menus in restaurants etc. Drinks.....maybe so, by a percentage.
I hope not anyway.....off there in a few weeks.
This website is usually fully up-to-date (within a few days or so) for local prices:

Lindos is Greece innit - or at least it was the last time I went to Rhodes :)
We got £400 worth barney at 7.1 but it just keeps dropping!
It'll go the way of Iceland - where the corrupt robbers followed the lead of their execrable government and welshed on any debts - then merely re-priced everything in ££ $$ €€ and wouldn't even take the local currency from tourists until they'd worked out a new conversion rate to continue the big steal.
Off to change my TLira into $..............
If you go to Turkey often it might be worth buying billions.
Doesn't look like anyone is selling any at the moment...??
