"The couple that runs the place is very friendly and helpful. The place itself is very basic amd the homecooked dinner quite good. But the value for the money is dubious. Cost of the room and particularly for the dinner is very high indeed. You can easily find a good meal in town for half the cost."
"Fantastic hotel for the price. Great value. Nice pool. Very good breakfast. Complementary all day tea/coffee. Staff v helpful.
Our room was basic - eg no tv - but it was clean and had a balcony.
Only negative for me was lack of sound proofing between our and next door bathroom."

What are the top things to do in Patara?
A Patara vacation offers a blend of stunning beaches and ancient historical sites:
Do you need to rent a car in Patara, or is public transport enough?
For a Patara vacation package, a rental car offers the most flexibility, especially since Patara is an outdoor and nature destination outside a major city. While you can walk from Gelemiş via the ancient city to Patara Beach in about 30 minutes, a car allows you to explore the wider region and its many attractions.
Many Patara beach vacation packages include flights to Antalya (AYT-Antalya Intl.) or Dalaman (DLM-Dalaman Intl.) airports. A car rental from the airport is a convenient way to reach your accommodation and visit other beaches or historical sites at your own pace. For travelers staying at a resort, many properties offer on-site dining and activities, reducing the daily need for a car.
