“Not for me”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2011

people found this review helpful

I’ve never written a negative review before and did give it a lot of thought before posting this. As a solo traveller, I chose Grenadine Lodge as I wanted somewhere peaceful, quiet and where I could remain anonymous. The lodge itself is really beautiful and is located in a lovely part of Dalyan, far enough out of town to enjoy the tranquillity but close enough to access by bike, or foot. The rooms are small and clean, they are basic but sufficient. The breakfast is ok – there were no eggs or real coffee – for these you have to pay extra. During my stay, there was a yoga retreat taking place. I really did not enjoy being a solo traveller alongside them. They were a big group and I felt as though they took over. They had a massive table at breakfast and sitting alone amongst them did, for me, feel awkward. My real problem with Grenadine Lodge however, was the staff. The manager was great on email before my trip – she responded to queries very promptly and was helpful. However, I found her not the friendliest or warmest sort in person. I felt I was annoying her if I needed to ask a question and that she had an attitude. I thought, as it was the end of the tourist season, she was perhaps tired. There are lots of stray dogs around Dalyan and one night a very sweet, harmless female puppy followed me back (with no encouragement from me). The owner has two dogs herself and understandably did not want another dog on the property. However, instead of ignoring this puppy or perhaps locking her dogs away for a short while until the puppy got bored and moved on, a member of her staff ‘removed’ the puppy in a very unpleasant way, literally dragging her by her neck. This was really awful to witness and awful for the poor dog.

There was also a situation with the cleaning lady. The owner confused/misunderstood the issue and basically wrote a rude email to me. She was not able to solve the problem in a customer focused or polite manner.

I spent time in the hostel next door (Bauhaus) and met friendly people there who told me the food was all organic, home-made and reasonably priced. The gardens there are gorgeous with a pond, relaxation area, swing chairs and loungers hand made by the owner and it is more like a family run B and B than a hostel. I wish I had stayed there.

“Unique accomodation in scenic Dalyan”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

It was the combination of its hospitability, good service, excellent food and quiet that made our stay at this small resort so pleasurable. Though not being vegetarians, we didn't miss the meat during our one week's stay for a single moment and enjoyed the variation of food offered. This is especially an ideal place for guests who like to escape from the daily life and routines at home. It is located a little outside the centre of town, but consequently offers the opportunity just around the corner to have a little stroll in the fields before retiring. Bikes are available for those who do not like to walk for twenty minutes to the centre of town. For us Dalyan with all its special assets is a place to return to and Grenadine Lodge is the hotel to stay again.

Room Tip: We preferrede our groundfloor rooms. Discuss it while making a reservation.

“A beautiful retreat with beautiful people”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

Dalyan is a fantastic place, and Hotel Grenadine Lodge makes the stay thoroughly enjoyable. It often hosts yoga retreats, and it gives off a serene atmosphere. It is hard to say enough about Dalyan. Be sure to stay for 4-6 days. There's tons to do: turtle hospital, beach, ruins, river cruise, mud baths, thermal hot springs, waterfall, fresh water pools in mts., Aspen trees (back to Cleopatra's days), and fantastic views. Many excursions come for only a day -- it absolutely deserves a much longer stay.

“Absolutely lovely hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2011 via mobile

Stayed here for a yoga holiday, so had no choice of venue and that was a good thing! Lovely staff, food, rooms, encrypted (and thankfully quite fast) wifi, bikes free to borrow, clean (everywhere!). We may well go back!

“What a wonderful, relaxing place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011 via mobile

I stayed here on a yoga holiday for a week and it was a wonderful, relaxing holiday.
Food is excellent. We had vegetarian food (although we could request fish or meat for a supplement) and every meal had different dishes.
The staff are all very friendly and helpful.
The place itself is a little out of Dalyan on the road that goes down to the turtle beach. You can catch the bus outside the hotel to the beach or into town. You can also walk into town, which takes about 15 mins but when we were there in July it was too hot to walk even 15 mins.
The hotel is very peaceful. I loved the tree house - a perfect place to sit and read when it's hot as there is a lovely breeze up there.
Rooms are nothing special, but clean. There is also a yoga building where we did our daily yoga sessions which is quite cool and breezy despite the heat.
Overall a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. I can't wait to go back.

If you're travelling on a yoga holiday with free spirit yoga, they are great - very well organised.
