Lavinya Hotel

Nazli Otel is in Golturkbuku not far from Bodrum only 30 minutes drive away. I stayed only two nights as I was staying in another hotel all paid and inclusive was a complete waste of money couldn't face to finish my holiday there so by chance I found Nazli Otel to complete my last two days. What a find, small friendly but professional service excellent breakfast with beautifully presented and nutritious. Rooms are small but very clean and there is a bigger than average mini bar where you could stock up all your drinks or food. Otel has its own beach only steps away from the room with comfortable sun beds and service was excellent on the beach with cold drinks and tasty snacks. Scenery and the beach is clear crystal and beautiful. I am surprised that this little gem is not rated highly yet. I would highly recommend it and also I must say it was a great value £50 per night including the breakfast. I definitely would stay in this hotel if I am in Bodrum again.

I feel very relaxed in this cute otel's atmosphere..friendly, kind personel..there is a pier in front of the otel where you can sunbathe while drinking your very cold beer:-) and the sea is very clean...

An elite hotel that allows you to have a peaceful, comfortable and happy holiday with its simple elegance. Among the dozens of hotels lined up along the entire bay, it is the only facility that provides its guests with a comfortable area without crowding the beach due to snow concerns. A calm and peaceful environment has been created with its perfect sea, clean and stylish comfortable rooms. Dear Murat Bey's care and attention is evident in every area of ​​the facility.

The hotel rooms have sea views and are very close to the sea. The color tones preferred in the rooms create a simple and peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are very clean and spacious. The balconies of the rooms overlook the sea and the sea view accompanies you on the pier during dinner. The food is also delicious. In short, everything was great.

Lovely hidden gem! Amazing private beach and staff are very friendly and helpful.

Super design, super clean, amazing breakfast, friendly staff. Cok tisikuler

This raving review is way overdue. Before I tell everyone about our amazing stay here in Golturkbucu, I have to give a bit of background. My husband and I live in the US and have been dying to go to Turkey for quite some time and we weren't going to let anything stop us, not even our 11 month old son so we took his with. We decided to take a two week trip to Turkey, with the first few days being in Istanbul, then to Cappadocia, and from there, we would end up somewhere on the Aegean Sea. Yes, no hotels booked and no real plans made for a very interesting trip, but I wouldn't have done it differently. After about a week of travel, we flew into the Bodrum airport (flying in Turkey is so cheap, there is no point to drive). We weren't sure which town we wanted to stay in so we asked a couple of locals at the airport and they pointed us to Golturkbucu. We immediately found vacancy at Lavinya Otel and it was one of the only hotels that we contacted that could speak English so we decided to book with them. Alhamdulillah! When we arrived, the manager, Mehmet, met us with smiles and helped with our luggage. He explained that our room was still being cleaned as we only booked thirty minutes prior to our arrival. We left our bags near the desk and decided to have lunch in their little seaside cafe. The view was stunning and the food was delicious and well priced. We split a few dishes (the cheeseburger, chicken fajitas, mezes, and one of the local fish dishes). After lunch, we were shown to our room. It was clean and they even provided a crib for our son. We changed and made our way out to the beach. Their beach is beautiful and the attendants who work there were amazing! They are all young men who are working their way through college and they were so friendly. They provided us with towels, served us drinks, and entertained our little guy. I have to say that the Turkish people are so great with children and Lavinya Otel was especially accommodating. The raving doesn't end here. The second evening of our stay, we went downtown for dinner and shopping. Upon arriving, we put our son down for bed and the owner and his wife invited us to the beach for mezes and raki (Turkish liquor). They were both so wonderful and we exchanged many stories and laughs. They asked what our plans were for the rest of the week and we told them that we planned to head to Cesme the next day, but weren't quite sure where exactly to stay. The owner told me that I should come to the front desk the next morning and that he would help arrange my travel and get me in touch with a friend of his in Cesme to make a recommendation for a hotel. The next morning we sat down for our complimentary breakfast, which is amazing. They have a lovely assortment of cheeses, olives, honey, bread, tea, vegetable, and gozleme. After breakfast, the owner spent about an hour with us helping to book a rental car and got me in touch with his friend to book a room at a beautiful resort in Cesme. I couldn't believe the hospitality. When we left, they called us a shuttle to the airport to pick up our car. It was quite sad. In those two short days we had gotten so close to the staff so we took a picture, exchanged hugs, and were on our way to Cesme. When we arrived at Cesme, the resort we were staying at was gorgeous and Cesme is a beautiful city for the rich and famous. However, when my husband and I look back at that trip, we always regret not staying longer at Lavinya Otel. Staying there provided more of the authentic Turkish experience. The people were warm, the food was great, and the views were paramount. We've already started talking about our next trip to Turkey and cannot wait to see our friends again! Teşekkür ederim to all of our friends at Lavinya Otel!
