The property managers are a sweet couple. They were very welcoming! Breakfast was nice, with tables set up right by the water and a view of the Tombs of the Kings! Facility is a little dated, but the service and view more than made up for it!

The location is outstanding, right on the river, with the best views of the tombs in all of Dalyan. The water taxi picks you up from the deck to take you to the beach for a great day trip. You can get coffee, wine etc from the bar and sit or lounge on the deck, day or night, and watch the boats go by. It’s super peaceful at night but it’s also an easy walk into the heart of Dalyan’s lively restaurant and shopping pedestrian malls. It’s perfect. Also, our hosts were so helpful and kind. Nothing was too much trouble. One of the very best places we’ve stayed on our 5-week tour of Türkiye. Highly recommended!

Location was exceptional - view off the back deck where breakfast was served had a boat dock and off in the distance a fantastic view of ruins up on the far hill that was also lit up at night. Easily walkable to plenty of restaurants & shops. If you rent a boat to tour the lake and river they will pick you up right at the hotel. The hotel owner was delightful and spoke perfect English so it was easily to get help.

Sessiz sakin.

Öncelikle güzel nazik bir karşılama oldu. Genel olarak sessiz, sakin ve rahat Bi konaklama geçirdik. Çalışanlar da kibardı güzel ağırladık. Olumsuz diyebileceğim yanlarına gelirsek. Banyo duş ve klozet bölümü oldukça dardı. İri ya da kilolu insanlar sorun yaşayabilir. Kahvaltıdan çok büyük beklentiniz olmasın. Standart Bi kahvaltı ve doyurucu manzarası güzel.

Ich hatte einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der Besitzer, der äußerst freundlich und nett war. Er hat sich stets bemüht, alle meine Bedürfnisse zu erfüllen und war immer für Fragen oder Anliegen da. Ein weiterer großer Pluspunkt ist, dass das Watertaxi direkt dort parken kann. Solch ein hervorragender Service macht den Aufenthalt noch angenehmer. Vielen Dank Münir abi.

Die Unterkunft liegt richtig gut und hat einen sehr schönen gepflegten Garten mit diversen Früchten und anderen schönen Blumen. Der Steg ist sehr schön und lädt zum sitzen oder sonnen ein. Die Möglichkeit im Fluss zu schwimmen gibt es auch. Das Personal ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Die Zimmer sind sehr schlicht und wurden immer gereinigt. Wenn man ein Auto hat gibt es die möglichkeit zum Strand zu fahren, wenn nicht gibt es Boote die versammelt Leute mitnehmen und dann zum Strand fahren (gegen Gebühr). Uns allen hat es gefallen und würden bei Gelegenheit auch nochmal kommen.

Aile için sessiz ve sakin bir konaklama

Otele girişte küçük de olsa bir otopark mevcut. Kapıda geniş ve botanik bir bahçe misafirleri karşılıyor. Tamamen ağaç gölgesinde kalan dinlenme alanları bulunmakta. Odalar otantik yapıda döşenmiş çok temiz. Banyolar ideal boyutta, sıcak su güneş enerjisinden sağlanıyor. Klima var, mini buzdolabı yok. Otelin kendi iskelesi ve üzerinde geniş bir şezlong alanı var. Dalyan suyuna buradan girilebiliyor. İskeleden tekne dolmuşlara binilebiliyor. Kahvaltı oldukça güzel, birçok yemek reçel, domates biber evde hazırlanmış yada otel bahçesinden doğal ürünler. İşletmeciler ve çalışanlar ilgili ve güleryüzlü.
