Hotels Near Sakartepe Seyir Terasi in Mugla

I had a fabulous 5 week stay in the Villa Marine through May 2023. First of all, it's a welcoming, warm place. Pinar and Osman, who run it, were exceptional hosts. My wife stayed for nearly three weeks, and I remained for another two, working from the hotel. The pool is beautiful and the views, particularly from the rooms in the two blocks at the back of the hotel, take in the river, the sea, the mountains and the castle to the East. We stayed in an apartment near the street and then I moved to one of the rooms overlooking the pool. Both were nice but the road can be a little noisy, especially when the town is busy. The rooms are spacious and cosy and all of them are quite different. My room had a huge balcony with two loungers. My only nitpick would be that the mattresses are a bit on the hard side and there are no pads or mattresses on the poolside loungers, which they badly needed. They gave us breakfast every morning. When the hotel was not busy, it consisted of a kind of personal buffet, with a range of jams, cheeses and one item cooked to order, such as egg or sausage. At busier times they serve a full buffet. The staff at the restaurant are extremely pleasant and attentive. The hotel is a 10/15 minute walk from the beach and the main tourist area of the town. However, it's a lovely walk, along the banks of the river, with lots of restaurants and cafes along the way. We had mixed results with the food in Akyaka (some restaurants are very over-priced) but there are some excellent places, such as Febiha 1921 and Niss Manti (beside each other on Karanfil Sokak) in the centre. As a location to be a digital nomad Akyaka is ideal. You have the trails in the mountains, the little coves for swimming and the river, all of it fairly quiet during the week outside peak season. Since the hotel was not busy, I was able to move work locations from time to time. It was pretty nice sitting in a swing seat in the shade of an orange tree while answering emails. It felt like a second home, rather than a hotel, and that made all the difference. We researched most of the accommodation in Akyaka but I think we found the best in terms of location, comfort and welcome.

I booked a room at Iskelem hotel with a friend’s suggestion couple of months ago and I traveled for this vacation from United States. I had high expectations from my vacation and I can comfortably say they absolutely exceeded my expectations! I think the location of the hotel is the biggest thing made me and my family so satisfied! It is on the Bay Area (feels like a private Bay Area for hotel costumers only ) and yet very close to city center of Akyaka driving 5 min. and walking probably 15 min. The view of the hotel and Bay is absolutely gorgeous, when you wake up and see that view from the balcony of the room, it feels like you are in paradise. It’s a quite and very elite place to stay. Rooms are so clean and their daily room cleaning is also very good! Their breakfast is very delicious like real Turkish breakfasts and I can tell they buy all their stuff organic from the villages around Akyaka which I really appreciate supporting local and organic. The staff ( literally every single person who works for the hotel) they are so very nice and kind. They are very helpful anytime and also they make sure you are happy and comfortable at your vacation! I absolutely will be back even thinking during the winter break bc me and my family were very satisfied from our hotel. We thank for making our vacation amazing!! :)

Amazing place and people, we were wonderfully well looked after in a beautiful and well thought out setting. Peace, quiet and tranquility in abundance. Comfortable accomodation, clean and a great breakfast. Rudi and Milo are very special too! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything. X
