just returned from Turkey and spent 4 nights here. the people are very friendly and the rate is rediculous for what you get. It's clean and perfectly positioned. Pity the water is a little strange (soaps don't lather, etc) in this region. Coming as I do from South Africa, the beach is hopelessly overrated... but that applies to the entire Med!

What a little gem, booked the cavus after reading the only 2 reviews on trip advisor. Was not dissapointed. Stayed for 2 weeks on b&b basis. Situation perfect just one street back from the beach, owners and staff very friendly. Hotel & gardens are imaculate, they do not take bookings from tour operators so for most of our stay it was just like being in a private villa, they had many guests but they were only staying one or two days at a time which meant that we had the hotel pool to ourselves for most of the time. Rooms were a little small but very clean with the cleaners coming in and change of towels every day & change of sheets every other, Mini bar & small balcony that you could just about sit out on, shower room was quite spacious by turkish standards and always plenty of hot water. On the days that we stayed by the pool we had lunch at the hotel which although a limited menu was fine for lunch and was always tasty and well presented. Breakfast was typically turkish but very fresh and we had omelettes sometimes which made a change from boiled eggs. All in all we were treated like royalty and would recommend the cavus to all. One little negative the music played at the poolside was repetative and noisy would benefit from getting a few laid back cd's.

We found this hotel after 11 hrs of staying in the Comfort Hotel, which is an absolute disgrace.

The hotel is on the main road and is deceptively divine. The entrance is between a pharmacy and empty property agents.

You are greeted by a courtyard area with pool and patio area.

The hotel is run by a husband and wife team with a fantastic Turkish barman/waiter/general dogsbody.

The rooms are clean (not very big) and adequately furnished for the price you pay (£30 a night per triple room with balcony and breakfast!)

The hotel has its own grapevines, olive trees, lemon trees and a small childrens play area.

This hotel saved our holiday from turning into a complete disaster

The Cavus is a lovely little hotel in the centre of Bitez. It is spotlessly clean and very quiet even though it is just off the small main road that runs through the centre of Bitez and is handy for everything.

The reception is run by a lovely German lady who is always smiling and eager to please. This hotel does not seem to feature in any brochurs so the guests all seemed to be independent travellers rather than 'package deal' tourists. The pool area is lovely and quiet and kept really clean. We had our breakfast each morning on the terrace by the pool. It was a typical Turkish breakfast but with a few European touches such as jams, marmalade and Chocolate spread due to the influence of the German lady who helps to run the hotel.

We arrived in Bitez without having previously booked a hotel and checked into this one because we liked the look of it and the lady on reception was so friendly. We would stay there again but there does not seem to be any way of booking this hotel other than directly as it is not featured in any British brochurs.
