This charming family-run boutique hotel boasts splendid views of the bay and treats guests to traditional Turkish hospitality. The stylish Badem Tatil Evi, named after the almond (‘badem’) trees, which grow in its extensive grounds is a perfect choice for couples and families alike. Built from local stone, it has just 12 rooms and suites, which are all tastefully decorated and enjoy sea views.

It is perched on the hillside above the bay of Selimiye, and below the atmospheric ruined castle. While away lazy days lying around the infinity pool and watching the boats as they make their way across the bay, or relaxing in the traditional Ottoman style seating area.

Alternatively, head to the private beach club which is set in a nearby bay. The waters here are wonderfully clear, gently shelving and peaceful.

If you are feeling energetic, you can take a walk through the grounds up to the Asiklar Tepesi (lovers’ hill) to enjoy even better views. You can continue from here to explore the ruins of not one but two ruined castles, both built in spectacular vantage points.

Enjoy a traditional Turkish breakfast on the terrace restaurant overlooking the sea. When the sun sets this becomes an attractive bar and dining area. The delicious food is inspired by traditional Turkish home cooking, all made from the freshest local ingredients.
