Villa Aşina Otel | Datça — Hotel in Datça

From the moment we arrived at Villa Asina Datca there was such a warm welcoming hospitable atmosphere it was a small indication of how wonderful our stay and holiday was going to be with Bulent Bay, Banu and their team at Villa AsIna Datca. Indeed their professional care and attention at all times surpassed our expectations - it had that magical ingredient that all hospitality sectors strive to achieve the ‘x’ factor and for our stay we got the ‘X’ factor, Morning and evening meals were superb, - Turkish breakfast fresh salad, sorrel leaves this size of which we can only wish for in Ireland and have foragers seeking and gathering in special places, dill, parsley that was full of that black pepper taste, wild garlic has a purple flower there - We were spoilt with how authentic everything tasted and as for dinner - wow - the fish - the beef steak - melt in your mouth - beautifully prepared and cooked not to mention the mezes all with a twist or cultural influence be it, Turkish, Asian, Thai, Jordanian, Moroccan. Bulent Bey has an outstanding Wine Cellar which only added the sublime to each evening repast. Many many thanks to them - an unforgettable week on the Datca Peninsula in south western Turkey, an area of outstanding natural beauty, crystal clear warm waters - stunning sunsets and warm off shore breezes - all you could wish for on holiday.

One of the best stays ever and we felt that from the moment we went through the door. The hotel has a unique decoration with vintage collections, which takes you to a different world instantly. It's 5 min drive from the city centre, costs 16 liras by taxi, a great trade off for the silence you'll get. There is a 'secret' bay you can access in 2 minutes where you can enjoy the crystal clear sea as well as a couple of beach restaurants within 15-20min walk.

One of the things that matter a lot for us in a hotel is the hygiene, and it was probably the cleanest hotel we've ever seen.

The breakfast was made of a good variety of local cuisine which helps you have a fresh start to your day - and the dinner was another level.

The manager and the owner were both super helpful to make the best of our time in Datca, they're both locals for a long time and have the best insights. The rest of the staff were very friendly and helpful as well.

As a bonus, they have two lovely dogs who tripled the fun we had during our stay. You don't need to worry if you're afraid of dogs, they're very well behaved and wouldn't interact with you unless you call them.

We'll definitely come back to Villa Asina when we visit Datca again and will be missing Daisy & Gamsiz...
