“ Great hotel off the Kalamar road about a mile out of Kalkan so not close to the numerous restaurants and bars in Kalkan town but there are a couple of places to eat nearby.The rooms are large and very clean,we stayed in a Deluxe, but there are a lot of steps to negotiate especially if you are at the top of the rear blocks of rooms.

Very Good

“ What makes this hotel are the staff. They are so accommodating and want you to have a good time. The rooms are an excellent size too with great facilities at a value for money price. The swimming pool is a proper swimming pool. Plenty of good quality eateries within walking distance and the hotel provide a free shuttle bus into Kalkan centre. It's a steep walk down to the nearest beach resort but they will collect if you telephone and return you afterwards. Would give this hotel an excellent if the food offering was improved. Breakfast is ok but repetitive with snacks and evening meals somewhat lacking compared to other cafes and retaurants. We stayed on a B&B basis which was a good choice.
“ Top Tip: These are no surprises. Kalamazoo beach resort. Cafe vita. House cafe.

Restaurant Staff very nice & friendly nice pool area & small deck for sunbathing - Breakfast was good chef there for omelettes & eggs etc ! lunch menu was nice also.But because the hotel didnt have many guests there was only a buffet dinner for 3 days of the weeks holiday.
I was very dissapointed though with the Delux bedrooms bed linen & towels supplied!
The top sheet on the a King size bed only covered half the bed! & was very worn & old. The pillows also were very old & small only 2 on the bed!
Also the towels in the bathroom were changed every day but were also very old worn stained & thin!
So this i why I have giving a below average rating for the hotel. It does not acheive a 4* . It is a very nice friendly small Hotel but the bed linen & towels provided in the rooms let them down.

“ Nice place with good views. Only booked for breakfast which was always big. Staff nice and willing to help. We were in the deluxe room very large with a huge bed enough to fit 3 adults. Not really suitable for wheelchair as it does not have a lift.
“ Top Tip: We found a great restaurant called Aqua I would recommend. Good food, good service nice people always full.

We like the walk in to town and back but if you are not up to it there is a shuttle bus operated by the hotel.
Would definitely stay here again
“ Top Tip: Cafe Zula in Kalkan town is a great place to eat the food is always of a high standard as is the decor and the service
