Everything was just perfect . I am a disabled woman so was concerned about my cases as we were on the 1st floor . The amazing young man on reception at night carried our cases up and down for my daughter and myself. The other staff were very helpful and friendly sorting taxis and information. Cleaners were efficient and friendly. I was worried that the hotel was a bit out of the way as I have trouble walking. But there are a few benches on road leading up to start of town so I could rest if I wanted to walk but getting taxis is very easy and there are many taxi ranks in town . Nice large rooms with comfy beds . Very quiet at night . Great value for the price paid . Lots of sunbeds no sunbed wars .pool has stairs to enter as well as ladder . The area around pool could get slippy but I just wore my sliders to edge of pool then held rail when getting in . Would visit again as a solo traveller as I felt very safe
We have stayed at many hotels in Dalyan and this is probably the best, we honestly can't think of a single thing could find fault with. Very friendly hotel with excellent service, rooms spacious and spotless, breakfast is a treat, and such a great location. 10 minute flat walk into town (more after Efes!) No hesitation in recommending, special thanks to owners and all staff, lovely holiday.
Second time at this hotel and third booked. Extremely friendly with a beautiful pool area. No towels on the comfortable sun beds around the pool also some comfortable chairs and tables for relaxation if preferred. View to the river. Plenty of room around the pool and a lovely bar. Every single member of staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Rooms and wardrobe space plentiful. We chose an upstairs room. There are no balconies but with the seating areas downstairs I don’t think you need one. The whole hotel is kept very clean. Breakfast delightful. 15 minute walk to the centre with many eateries on the way. All in all fabulous hotel.
This is our 2nd time at this amazing hotel and it wont be our last. Every single member of staff go above and beyond. The owner and little dog are always there too. Rooms spotless, food amazing xx
Spent two weeks at this hotel with my wife. We have only been to Turkey once before and stayed in Dalyan at a different hotel first time. This time we stayed at Portakal and that turned out to be a great decision. The team and the management are so helpful, everything just runs perfectly. The place is spotless. The food excellent. The location about as good as it gets for the mix of quiet nature with a short walk to the town centre. We have travelled a bit over the two holidays it Turkey and Dalyan is still the best place we have been, and the hotel slots right in to that relaxed lively vibe. HIGHLY recommend this hit. Thank you.
