Fodor's Expert Review Lavanta Hotel
Papatya Sokak No. 32, Yalikavak, Mugla, 48430, Turkey
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Surrounded by well-maintained gardens and grounds on a hillside overlooking the Yalıkavak Bay, this tranquil and charming family run (husband and wife) boutique hotel breaks the typical mold of bland package tourism. All of the attractive 8 rooms are individually decorated and have large balconies. Lavanta also has a restaurant (up to 20 guests) offering groumet meals (reservations are a must!), a wine cellar and 2 bars.
PROS
- panoramic sea view, large rooms, intimate atmosphere
CONS
- 1.5 km from the beach
