Kalkan Saray Suites

"Lovely, friendly hotel with extremely helpful and welcoming staff who made our stay very enjoyable. The suites are spacious and comfortable, although the rooms next to the suites are quite small. As we didn’t spend much time in the room, this wasn’t a major issue for us. The restaurant served lovely food throughout our stay, and the breakfast offered a good selection each morning. Some areas of the hotel are a little dated and could do with some maintenance and repairs. The only downside was the housekeeping. We stayed for 20 days, and although the sheets and towels are supposed to be changed daily, this was missed on a few occasions. Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would happily return thanks to the excellent staff, good food, and welcoming atmosphere."

"We have just completed an idyllic, restful break at Saray Suites hotel in Kalkan and this is the first time I have ever been moved to write a hotel review, so I am completing it now as we wait for our transfer. What can I say? This is a lovely hotel which is very comfortable and adds little touches of luxury to make your experience special but not intimidating or pretentious. It is not pristine by any means but it adds to the charm and ease of your stay. Our room was an upgrade to a beautiful rooftop suite, which took our breath away on arrival and allowed us to enjoy spectacular views and sundecks including a lovely jacuzzi, which we enjoyed a few times. The bed was very comfortable and the room was cool with the reliable air conditioning which was essential in the blistering heat. Breakfast was an a selection of lovely fresh foods, cold and warm, and the omelette bar was a nice touch. We enjoyed some light bites in the One restaurant and everything was tasty and fresh. The views from the restaurant are breathtaking and the sound of cicadas and the call to prayer just made it so chill and relaxing. There are some beautiful garden suites with private pools but the main pool was a lovely size and there was never the usual fight for loungers. The water was warm and there were plenty of parasols. The highlight Saray Suites is undoubtedly the staff. You could not ask for friendlier and more attentive staff, nothing was too much bother and they genuine seemed to really enjoy working here. The same friendly faces welcomed us at breakfast each morning and ensured that we had refreshments by the pool and served really nice food at the restaurant too. A particular mention to Orhan, who gave me to have some lemon and mint tea when I appeared at breakfast with a lost voice and sore throat. He then popped out to the local shop to buy me some mint sweets to ease my discomfort. That is the level of service and care you get here. Everybody genuinely cares and it shows. We have had the loveliest time Kalkan and the hospitality shown by the locals, and the hotel in particular, have made it really special. We really do want to come back again one day."

"Gorgeous hotel, amazing staff. The staff couldn’t do more for us. Our room was big and lovely view. 10 minute walk into the town. Room was cleaned daily and provided with new towels whenever we needed. Good choice for breakfast and plenty of shops on the doorstep of the hotel. We arrived at 1am and a member of staff was there waiting for us and even ordered us food, we had it in the restaurant and it was the perfect start to the holiday, exactly what we needed. Staff always said hello and was very attentive. Couldn’t have chosen a better hotel and will definitely be back. Thank you Saray Suites :)"
