Yonca Lodge

"Great beach, lovely people, nice food. Easy dolmus into town."

"Needed more cats."

"We loved the position- to walk straight onto a private beach, the waves lapping the shore, was amazing! We loved the garden, the very relaxed feel of the place and enjoyed some beautifully cooked food…very comfortable bed!!!"

"Nothing, to be honest! It was quite simply furnished, as opposed to luxurious- but the organic teas in our room were delicious…."

"We stayed here just to break the journey to Dalaman airport and it was really lovely! The whole hotel has such a nice atmosphere, with just a few spacious buildings painted in a happy Aegean turquoise, and the setting is idyllic ... right by the sea and surrounded by a river and flowering gardens. You look over the hotel to the mountains and everything is airy and rural. The rooms were cute, with two balconies each, and the room even had a mini pale blue Smeg fridge! The beach has some sand but a few pebbles (like a lot of Turkey) so bring those rubber shoes ... and the beach atmosphere is more Thai island than 5-star package, but we liked that too. Oh, and wild ducks + chickens seem to roam around the lawns, which was rather enchanting! We will be going back."

"The barman might need a bit of help at sunset hour as he had to dive off to wait on the tables too."

"We had a really relaxing and enjoyable week here and would definitely come back. The location by the beach was absolutely perfect. The site as a whole is generally pretty quiet (nearby resorts play music at night, but always stop by 11pm). The rooms were comfortable and the air conditioning kept us cool at night even when it got very hot. The restaurant and bar were good and well priced, and the staff very friendly and helpful."

"There was nothing we didn't like."

"It was a small hotel of 20 rooms. Therefore, there are not many people around, mostly adults. It has a large garden, a small river running by the garden and connecting with the sea at the end. There were ducks and chickens here and there giving you a small village vibe. Very peaceful, great atmosphere for the ones who need to rest. It was pet friendly, great place for my little dog. The staff was very friendly and willing to accommodate to your needs. I would be happy to visit there next year."

"The food was ok. The menu can be developed. The manager has also some thoughts on that for the upcoming year."

"The location could not be better, right on the beach. You can tell that they have thought through everything, from the decor to the comfort in the rooms to the friendliness of the staff. I cannot imagine a better place to stay here. It's a paradise! In particular, the beds were much more comfortable than I usually expect at hotels and the staff was delightful. I enjoyed my meals at the restaurant and could not ask for a better stay."

"Aucun."

"loved how accomodating the staff was. pictures dont explain the property perfectly and we booked an inappropriate room for ourselves. but they moved us around and made it perfect!"

"Aucun."

"The whole package. It was quiet and the views were to die for. The food was some of the best I have tasted."

"Aucun."

"The surroundings are so peaceful, during the day there’s a lovely air of serenity about the place. It’s very relaxing. The beach is beautiful. The information board in the room was an incredibly helpful touch."

"Unfortunately at night there was aggressively loud dance music played -presumably from one of the neighbouring sites - until very late at night. This was a stark contrast to the peace of the hotel grounds. And not helpful when you have early morning cockerel starts!"

"A heaven for nature lovers. Good views. Lots of domestic birds and some wild ones; frogs singing every evening; we could even spot some turtles in the waters. Restaurang on the beach. Breakfast OK for 3 stars. Freshly pressed juice included in the breakfast, we appreciated that. Good menu for dinner. The beach is owned by the hotel, it's clean and one can find shadow under trees."

"The room we got did NOT correspond to the description in the booking, namely the statement "Entire unit located on ground floor" was false. The apartment was in fact 2-floors with a stair. For us it was more or less acceptable though not ideal; for older people that could have been a catastrophe. Be careful and check with this hotel what apartment you are getting! The air condition in the apartment worked rather poorly. Set to 18 C, it could barely provide 23 C after many hours. Possibly the AC is under-dimensioned for the volume of the apartment. We complained but did not get it attended. The cleaning personnel happened to turn it off and then we found the room at 30 C and could barely sleep that night. On top of that, the fuse went off a couple of times and AC stopped, leading to the same poor result."
