We had a chance to spend 1 night in this lovely place which made us feel at home. First impression was that our expectations were satisfied with the wooden structure of the hotel and the decoration of the room. However once we started our dinner we were amazed by the quality of the food and service which continued with breakfast.... More

Tranquilla was an absolutely wonderful place to stay--it was relaxing with beautiful rooms and great food! We had spent a couple of days wandering around Istanbul (wonderful) and staying at Tranquilla afterwards was the perfect way to end our trip. The staff were fantastic--friendly, attuned to their guests needs and they had that right mix of being attentive and still... More

We stayed at Tranquilla for two days in april and it was wonderful. The location is great, nearby the river. The place was peaceful and comfortable. The food was good, the owners and the service made us feel at home. And it was very romantic. I truly recommend it.

The whole approach this couple has is very unusual in Turkey in my opinion and sets the mark on the whole place. It is reflected... More

I spent 2 nights at Tranquilla River Lodge to get away from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. A great place to totally unwind and relax. Besides taking a pedalo to the golden beach nearby there is nothing to do - which is the beauty of the place! Relax on a hammock, read a book, surf the net (using free... More
