“Ever so relaxed...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 September 2011

Lavanta is situated on a hill and has a splendid view to the sea, individually and with taste decorated rooms (with antique furniture and pictures), a beautiful garden and fantastic pool. But most remarkable of all is the wonderful atmosphere. Staying at Lavanta is more like visiting good friends, than like staying in a hotel.

My husband and I were coming to Lavanta after a quite stressfull time. Thanks to the beauty of this very special place, the efficient service of staff and, most of all, Maria and Tosun Mereys excellent hospitality we could recharge our batteries in no time. We are planning to come back next year!

“A perfect place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

There is absolutely nowhere better to stay on the Bodrum Peninsular. Tosun, Maria and the staff are outstanding and make all the difference.

“Ein Hotel der Sonderklasse”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011

Lavanta Hotel in Yalikavak ,ein Hotel der Sonderklasse.
Wunderbare Lage mit Blick auf die Meeresbucht von Yalikavak. Herrliche Sonnenuntergänge. Um das Hotel herum gepflegte Gartenanlagen mit blühenden Blumen. Von überall kurze Distanz zum Pool.
Großer sehr sauberer Pool mit Sonnenschirmen, Liegestühlen und Badehandtüchern. Gleich nebenan hübscher Garten mit Tischen zum Lesen, Schreiben und Essen. Mittags Möglichkeit zu einem schmackhaften Mittagsimbiss, der ebenso wie ganztägig Getränke von einer kleinen Bar aus auf Bestellung zu geringem Preis serviert wird.
Hervorragendes Frühstück mit verschiedenen Brot- und Gebäcksorten,, Schinken, Wurst, unterschiedlichem Käse, Eiern in gewünschter Form ,täglich frisch vom Markt kommendes Obst, außerdem Müsli und Yoghurt, Säfte und Tee.
Nachmittags Selbstbedienung: Tee und immer wechselnde von Frau Merey selbst gebackene Kuchen.
Die sehr freundlichen und sorgfältig eingerichteten Zimmer werden täglich geputzt und in den (vorwiegend) Duschbädern die Handtücher täglich gewechselt. Terrassen vor allen Zimmern mit herrlichem Blick über das Meer und in die Landschaft.
Es gibt „Residenzen“ mit mehreren ebenfalls bestens eingerichteten Zimmern und einer Küche, die mit allem Nötigen ausgestattet ist, - eine gute Möglichkeit, Kinder jeden Alters mitzubringen und selbst zu verpflegen. Auch hier schöner Landschafts- und Meeresblick.
Durchwegs sehr freundliches und bemühtes Personal.Kinder sind willkommen und werden liebevoll behandelt. Sie finden sogar Badespielzeug vor.
Man spürt überall das liebevolle Umsorgtwerden durch die Hotelbesitzer, die jederzeit bereit sind, Sonderwünsche zu akzeptieren und nach Möglichkeit zu erfüllen, und die außerdem gute Tipps für Ausflüge in die Umgebung parat haben.
Sehr genossen haben wir, dass wir von dem so kenntnisreichen Ehepaar Merey viel Interessantes über Geschichte, Land und Leute erfahren konnten, was häufig zu anregenden Diskussionen führte.

“Beyond Beautiful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We would have given five stars to Lavanta simply because Maria and Tosun and the entire staff are so wonderful...I mean, seriously wonderful...kind, attentive, considerate, charming, and many other superlative adjectives.
But, it so happens that even outside of the incredible people, Lavanta itself is worthy of five stars. The property is beyond beautiful, and unless you live in a botanical garden, you're not likely to experience more flowers and plants and trees in your surroundings. We ended up spending much more time at the pool (which is enormous) than we had planned, simply because the grounds are so breathtaking. A great deal of attention is paid to the grounds, and to the pool area. And you really won't want to leave.
The breakfast is perfect...a terrific selection of breads and cheeses and perfect homemade jams and made to order eggs. And you should make a point to get back to the property between 5-6pm each evening for tea time. Maria's cakes still linger in my dreams. Really, it's worth spending one less hour in the sea each day to get a slice of one of her homemade sensations.
Our one-bedroom apartment was charming with a wonderful view. We weren't huge fans of the bed, but that's always a subjective thing. We did sleep well though. And I'm glad to hear that the towels have been changed, because if we had one major complaint, that would have been it.
Overall, we loved Lavanta so much and will stay there absolutely if and when we return to the Bodrum Peninsula.

“Absolutely Lovely”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Lavanta is simply delightful and ideally located in a quiet spot with sweeping views yet a short drive down to the Yalikavak waterfront and with reasonable access to GolTurkBuku, the glammest spot on the Aegean. The pricing is an incredible value and the personal touch of Maria's homemade pastries and jams for breakfast, served up by Maria herself, makes you feel like a guest in her home. I would fly all the way back in a heartbeat just to stay here again!
