Popular Kalkan 4-star Hotels

We stayed for 11 days in early May and we were very pleased with the hotel. It's small, very clean and staffed by friendly and helpful people. I have been in 5 star hotels in the past which were not as good as The Samira Exclusive. Rooms were cleaned every day and towels were changed; the towels were very good quality, thick and fluffy and bering the hotel's insignia. The only not so good points are the WIFI, which can be temperamental and the breakfast which was underwhelming. Breakfast consisted of mainly cold salads, boiled eggs and two warm (never hot enough) dishes; these were usually chopped local sausages mixed with peppers, and potatoes or occasionally baked beans. If you wanted eggs cooked any other way it would cost extra, this seemed a little petty; the bread however was very good. We didn't eat there in the evenings but I understand from others that the quality of the menu at that time was very good. We had a late evening flight home and asked about the possibility of extending our check out by a few hours, this cost us £40, which I feel is quite steep. The hotel was quite empty when we arrived but began to fill up as the season progressed and I can see possible problems in the high season with queues in the restaurant which is small and finding beds around the pool. Of course we already saw people rising at cock crow to claim beds with their towels and often these beds were hardly used, this is something the hotel should clamp down on. There is no lift either so the hotel is only accessible to the able bodied. Kalkan itself is very impressive; it's extremely picturesque, surrounded by hills and peppered with small winding cobbled streets full of restaurants and art shops, no sign of the usual tourist 'tat'. It is very steep though and I wouldn't recommend it to disabled people or those with small children and push chairs. It is also very expensive, eating out cost us about the same as we would pay to eat out in the UK. People who were frequent visitors told us the prices has almost doubled in the last year or two since Covid. Would I recommend it? Definitely, and I would return to the Samira Exclusive but it would be nice to see the points I have raised being addressed.

We’ve stayed at The Likya on many occasions over the years and have commented previously that the place needed significant investment. Whilst there have been some changes since 2022 season, unfortunately they haven’t invested in the things that would have the most impact on the guests. There are three fantastic things about The Likya. The staff, who are second to none - particularly Muhammet’s team* on food and beverages and the receptionist - the food and the view. *A special shout out for Ummut, Hatice and Ozzie, who cannot do enough for you. The fabric of the building however, and general air of neglect, is becoming a major issue for people staying there and was a frequent source of discussion in the pool (when you really don’t have a great deal to talk about!) The changes made since last year are to improve the reception area, improve the breakfast area - and this actually is much better - and to replace the sun loungers, which were falling apart. Unfortunately the new ones are very flimsy and unlikely to last long. They have done nothing at all to the bedrooms, which have yet to see a lick of paint since our first visit in 2010. The gardens are overgrown and plant containers have dead and untended plants in them, clearly never being watered. What happened to the gardener? There is a general air of neglect about the pool area and parasols have been patched up on many occasions and look very sorry for themselves. I suspect that while the owner has handed over day-to-day management of the hotel to the previous manager, who is doing her best, there is insufficient funding available to actually do what needs to be done to get the hotel back to being a special place to stay in Kalkan. A last point, which has nothing to do with the state of the hotel: they really need to use plastic (or other non-breakable) glasses and crockery when people are having drinks at their sunloungers. Twice we witnessed cups and glasses being broken - people walk around barefoot and this is very dangerous. I doubt that we will return to The Likya, although we will go back to Kalkan. This is very sad because the staff are amazing, but it has fallen way behind on standards.

So we booked this gem of a hotel on our first trip to kalkan and our first trip to Turkey. We were very happy that we did. We will definitely go back. Not a lot of English in the hotel (plenty of English down in the town), but everyone was lovely and friendly. Lovely room, fantastic views, lovely decor. Great gym (small), but it has got most things in it. Free clean pool towels every day. The pool was a salt water pool, a lovely size with a jacuzzi, and a seating area in the pool to chat with people. A small walk down the hill to the sea and the hotel give you free passes for sun beds and umbrells, there is also a lovely restaurant there as well. The hotel is on a steep hill, but we walked it most days. We also walked into town, which was a lovely walk, and took around 25 minutes. There are lots of steep hills everywhere, so if you like walking, this will be great for you. If not, the wonderful staff can book you a cab (about £4 to town). They also booked us restaurants and couldn't do enough for us. Bar staff was fantastic, even stayed open till we came back from the town or other restaurants for our last drink/drinks. If the cocktail we wanted wasn't on the menu, they would look it up and make it for us. They also played the music you asked for from YouTube. Restaurant staff fantastic. The manager and his wife couldn't do enough for us and tried so hard to make us feel very special and welcoming. We didn't eat there in the evening as there were so many lovely restaurants around but we did have breakfast and lunch at the hotel which was lovely. I'm celiac, and they catered for me aswell. Also, there is a shop 5 mins up the road which has gluten-free items (biscuits, crisps, bread, rolls etc. )
