"Everything was absolutely amazing. Loved both of the pools and the free breakfast. The staff was so kind and helpful. The building is all little villas which are super cute. The only downfall is that you have to walk up a small hill - but worth it. You get a good view of the water from the pools and breakfast area. We really enjoyed our time."
"Superb boutique hotel — peaceful, tastefully furnished, professionally run, and designed to never feel overcrowded (a rarity in Bodrum). It’s very centrally located (a 10-min cab ride from the center of the city) but feels secluded and exclusive. The views from the pool / bar / restaurant are amazing — the best in Bodrum. Summer live jazz nights on the lawn are very enjoyable."
"Our stay was amazing! We had booked last minute due to an unfortunate experience at a terrible resort and I wish we had been here from the beginning of our trip. The staff were always friendly and all areas were kept clean. The room was lovely and the decor of the entire property was a dream. The bed was very comfortable and it was great to go back to a pleasant room after being in the busy centre. I would highly recommend this hotel."
