    although we upgraded to the honeymoon suite down low by the water, initially we had a much bigger room up on the hill with a great patio and sea view, for us personally the pool area. breakfast/restaurant bar area below were just too steep a walk down from our initial fabulous huge room.. The cobblestone driveway and sidewalks are lovely but it’s all on an extremely steep incline, so not for those with any sort of knee issues (like my husband). the first room (up high on the hill) was beautifully decorated and had lots of special touches (carpets, artisan ceramic dishes for soap etc) — So we were just a little surprised when the honeymoon suite which was a serious upgrade— was decorated in a much more bohemian simplistic style. of course the proximity to the sea and the privacy and exquisite location of the room was paramount. but I couldn’t help thinking that if you had seen one of the other rooms like we had that you wouldn’t think something was missing. it just seems like they never upgraded honeymoon suites to be a little bit more refined with their special touches. that was the only small negative that impacted me and only because I saw the other rooms first.

    we absolutely love the location on the point so remote and private. ( a 40 minute gorgeous drive up from Fethiye)

    the location is a bit remote, but as you basically always need a car here it’s not a problem.

    The view is amazing, facility is great. There are lots of spots to take pictures, also the view of the sunset near the cliff was so unreal. -it’s a private place to relax and enjoy some peaceful time. staffs are friendly and nice, enjoy the talk with them. food are well prepared. highly recommend here as nothing can better than having dinner while enjoying the sea view

    Unfortunately a number of staff (not all ) were rude and argued about what we either did or didn’t have. Our second night we went to pay our bill (doing this on a daily basis),and the staff tried to charge us for drinks that we never had. As soon as we said we didn’t want to pay for stuff we never had a total of 5 staff made us feel intimidated. We ended up only paying for what we had but the whole situation made us feel uncomfortable

    location is perfect!!

    We had a strong smell in our first bedroom. At the beginning we were thinking it's the air-conditioning system so we stopped it and opened every windows. However after waiting the smell was still here so we went to the reception and informed them. They told us, we will check and if we can not fixed it we will move you. We had no news so we went to the manager and asked as the smell was still there and even worse and very horrible. She told us we did not find anything. Maybe they did not find from where it came from but the smell was really really strong (like a dead animal, it can happend, but don't live people in this bedroom). We had to be insistent to be proposed to move. They finally moved us and after the bedroom was ok, and without smell.

    Location, the staff at the restaurant was really nice and good breakfast

    Dinner was dreadful.u husband ordered a steak and repeatedly asked for it to be well done, burnt no pink at all. It arrived pink. The young waiter actually argued with us as to how pink it actually was but eventually brought over a supervisor who took it away. No apology and mo offer to correct. When we got the bill not only had they charged us for the steak but an extra bottle of wine. It ruined the night completely. It was meant to be a celebration for our 30th wedding anniversary and I had advised the hotel in advance. Also asked for an upgrade to a room with a bit tub which never happened

    A lot of the views of the sea from the rooms and pool area are obstructed by trees or overgrowth. Getting to your room is a grueling climb and they should have a golf cart or something to bring people to their rooms as you cannot drive directly to them. The iskele, or swimming dock, is in close proximity to the pump out for gray water and discarded food from the kitchen and bar, so the two days we were there we saw this foamy soupy discharge with food particles floating along the sea kind of near the hotels swimming area. I could go on but, in all reality, this property is poorly maintained that is in need of desperate repair in many areas, they will go under within a year if they don’t make some serious moves. It is a great and peaceful spot with a TON of potential.

    Pool bar and lounge area is decent. Staff are nice but could be better. Bartender was solid.

    I had so wanted to like this place. We chose the nicest room and looked forward to experiencing several days of bliss on the Turkish Coast. Unfortunately the owners of this shabby chic property have let shabby take over. If you are planning in going here, be aware you'll have to make peace with the following: cold showers until late in the day when the solar tanks warm up, unheated pools (which by October means cold pools), no WiFi in the rooms but rather only in a small part of the public area, no tv, electrical outlets in the room not all working (and the staff casually mentions it knows about the outages but then doesn't do anything to fix the problem), very poor lighting leading up to the room and in parts of the room (making use of cell phone flashlights mandatory), breakfast from "8:30 to 10:30" but it is only really ready by 9:10 or so (one couple gave up in disgust after waiting over half an hour without being given anything), wait staff that hasn't been told about using deoderant and therefore frankly reeks, unwashed windows in the rooms, and a general neglect of the property buildings and garden. We felt ashamed for the owners/management until we realized that they really didn't care. The prices are on the higher end for Turkey but do not result in a nice experience.

    The chef knows how to turn out some very tasty food.

    The cleanliness of the hotel was miserable there was ants walking around the bed we checked in and the private pool was dirty the property is not clean enough. Also the way to enter the property is one one of the scariest ways ever there is a slope to enter the property so if you have a big car it will not be easy. We changed the hotel immediately!

    The view of the hotel only. The receptionist man was friendly.
