The property provides stunning views of the Yalikavak Bay from both the rooms and the lovely terrace overlooking the pool. The rooms are handsome rather than elegant but clean, comfortable, and spacious with generous porches perfect for relaxing.
The guest experience is exceptional because the owner/innkeepers are charming, efficient, hardworking, and delightful. Can't say enough good things about Maria and Tosun. You will feel like you've been welcomed into the family. Lavanta was easily the best lodging experience of our three week visit to Turkey. Mike D.

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. We stayed in one of the self-catering apartments with an exceptional view over Yalikavak bay and peninsula. The breakfast provided at Lavanta was outstanding, as were the cakes baked daily by Maria and served (complimentary) at 5pm everyday. Maria and Tosun who run the hotel are extremely friendly and welcoming and have excellent knowledge of the surrounding area, on several occasions lending us books, maps and magazines so that we could make the most of our trip. There is plenty to see and do in the area and the friendly staff are happy to help book trips for scuba diving, boat trips or whatever else takes your fancy! The garden is beautiful and the pool large and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Beautifully situated with stunning views of the ocean and peninsula. The garden is totally amazing and blooming with flowers. Maria and Tosun are not just a very lovely couple, they are also very attentive and are always on hand to offer great advice about sightseeing in the local area. There is plenty to do in the local area including sea fishing, snorkeling, hiking or visiting ancient monuments, but one can equally just relax by the large and well kept pool.

A beautiful place with a paradisal garden, a great swimming pool to spend your time in and around and an amazing view over the Bay of Yalikavak. The rooms are lovingly furnished and the friendliness of the staff is outstanding, the service excellent. But the true soul of the place are Maria and Tosun, who will look after you attentively and treat you like friends of the family.
