We came as a party of 6, 3 adults and 3 children for one week and our first time in Dalyan. We arrived early hours of the morning but the exchange of keys was prompt and we were able to relax in the villa instantaneously. Palm Tree villa is beautiful inside and out and we weren’t the only ones who thought so.. each day we would have chickens who popped into the garden for a roam about, one night we saw a hedgehog and we woke up one day to a tiny bird bathing itself in the pool :) the local cats also liked to have a wander over, but were very friendly and didn’t disturb our stay in any way. Palm Tree villa has everything that you need inside the property even to the smallest detail of items such as a Turkish/English converted extension lead so that you don’t have to worry about sharing travel plugs between everyone, we found this very helpful indeed. There wasn’t one point during our stay that we had to think about having to go out and buy any of the essentials we needed, everything was readily available and we also had a useful welcome pack with food and drink that we may need on arrival, which was really handy as our flight was delayed and we arrived at an unsociable hour. We all enjoyed eating on the balcony as the views are unbelievable and my partner and I enjoyed cooking on the Turkish bbq outside which was easy to use and made all the difference to the taste of the food. The pool was one of our families favourites and even better that it was cleaned daily every morning so that when we woke up could just enjoy a swim without having to think about anything.
As you would expect in a hot country there were the usual ants and bugs about but usually in the Childrens bedrooms if they had left empty food wrappers lying about! They all soon learnt not to do this and there was ant powder/spray available to get rid of the problem quickly which we were pleased about. Funnily enough the adults bedrooms didn’t have the same problem :) there were plenty of games to keep us entertained and Wi-Fi available which was handy.
Would like to say a big thank you to both Paul and Sue for allowing us to stay and making our stay at ease. Any questions we had we were able to just send a text and get a reply quickly. Paul sent us a map of the local area which was really helpful and recommended a brilliant restaurant ALgeria where you can eat by the riverside with a beautiful view of the tombs.
Dalyan has been amazing, We will definitely be back next year! :)
