Likya Gardens Hotel

We stayed in a waterfront suite, the views from the room and the balcony and bath where outstanding, great amenities, including plugs next to both sides of the bed (Which some hotels lack now a days) the Wi-Fi was good, available throughout the hotel, including on the sunbeds at the beach club and two sinks that my partner loved, plus two fridge, so plenty of room for wine and beer that we brought from the town. We loved the breakfast, fresh fruit, cheeses and choice of eggs, not too heavy in the heat. The room and beach club service was excellent, the staff couldn't do enough to help you. The walk into town was about 15-20 mins around the bay, downhill, so we usually walked in and got a taxi back (Which cost about £3.50) The hotel restaurant was in at a different venue, about 8-10 minutes walk ... but was it worth it, the food was outstanding we ate there twice in 5 days. The hotel manager and beach club manager and staff where incredible, so friendly and they made our stay so relaxing and easy, nothing was too much bother, I hope they're still there when we next visit, which we will, this is our new favourite hotel. In short this was everything we wanted in a holiday hotel, the room was unusual and very large with great views and character, it was quiet and the service was expectational, it ticked every box.

We stayed in the Aperlea villa and it’s fabulous. Private pool, air con (much needed) and a private cabana at the beach club where you can jump or step in to the clear blue sea. The staff are excellent. We even had a rather large electrical issue which cut the hotel off from the main supply but it was sorted amazingly quickly with the use of a local generator. Deniz on the front desk is super helpful and he really cares about the guests. Service at the beach club is also top notch and the food is also great. Breakfasts are included and you have a vast array of choices. The hotel is located away from the main area so it’s quiet but only a short 10min walk to town and taxis are also cheap and plentiful. Restaurants in kalkan are generally good quality. We’ve had some fabulous food. I’d recommend going from word of mouth recommendations rather than review ranking as a lot of restaurants seem to be top of these ranks because they work harder at getting reviews. Our favourites so far have been Coast and AKDeniz. Baharat is also good but a bit pricier. There is a great Facebook group called Visit Kalkan that is super helpful. If you’re a wine fan - Backyard no 10 is a must visit.

We had a fantastic holiday at Likya Gardens. Our room was fantastic with a lovely pool, the views are incredible and the staff are so helpful and made our stay really special. It's a great location, just a few minutes into town and close to everything you need. We will definitely be going back.

We had a lovely stay at the Likya ! Absolutely in love with the staff and we had such fun at breakfast and just in general. Everyone is just fantastic here. Amazing distance to the center so you can walk back and forth and it’s an easy walk with no hills and will take you ten mins - so this is INCREDIBLE. However in the rooms in the hotel need a bit of a face lift - we were surprise when we saw our room - perhaps we had a sort of sad one . Mattresses are so uncomfortable my shoulder is buggered! The bath was kind of broken and it was a bit hectic - however we lived! The pool however was amazing and the deck area and we were so happy it made up for everything. The beach front area is lovely and so easy. Just needs a bit of an injection fund and this can be the best hotel in Kalkan with the best staff!!! Thanks for everything !!!
