Initially, my wife and two children were looking for a vacation in Fethiye, but this year all the hotels were terribly overpriced, and acceptable options sold out right under our noses. We accidentally came across the Lost Forest Villa in Kobak Bay. I liked the description. Usually we vacationed in all-inclusive hotels, but this time we decided to take a risk and change the format of our vacation. We lived for 10 days. Brief impressions of your stay at the villa.

- Beautiful nature. Forest, mountains and sea at the same time. The villa is on a hill, but not very far from the sea (10 minutes walk). Great view. Especially in the evening when the sun illuminates the mountains at sunset.
- Nearby is the Sultan Market store - a family business. You can buy the essentials, order a set of dishes from the menu and eat relatively inexpensively. Nice big portions. We were lucky, our villa and the store were next door and we took portions to our home on the terrace. We ate with a view of the sea. Children regularly ran there for sweets or ice cream.
- There are also several campsites where you can spend the night with a tent or use the hosts’ tent. You can also eat there.
- During the tourist season, dolmuş (minibus) runs quite regularly to Oludeniz and Fethe. About once an hour. One day my wife and I went to Fethiye, plunged into the world of exorbitant prices and annoying excursion sellers, and were once again glad that we were staying in our own bay.
- Excursions are possible even from our remote place. There are many transfer companies in Turkey. Through one of them I was able to go on an individual excursion to the Saklyukent Canyon.
- Right on the outskirts of the village there is a marked forest mountain path up to the waterfall. You need to climb to a height of approximately 800 m above sea level for about two hours. It is quite comfortable to walk in the shade of trees even at noon, despite the heat of about 35-38 degrees. Along the way there are stunning views from the mountain slopes to the sea.
- The beach is pebbles. In some places the seabed has large cobblestones, which is inconvenient, but we later found a convenient place for swimming.

The landscaping looks like a very dirty beach to be thrown away. It 's multicolor, so it 's almost impossible to enter with the naked foot. It’s very vibrant, and you won’t lose much if you don’t go. Parking serious issue current price is 200 TL parking ownership how room is not well understood.

The view and the sea are very beautiful. The environment is extremely natural. But there are no facilities in Kabak Bay other than a hotel cafe bar. A few people (it is not clear where they are from) rent umbrellas for 100 TL, but there are no sun loungers. Also, there is no WC or shower that may be included in this fee. You sit on sand or pebbles in extremely primitive conditions. If you have your own umbrella and chairs, you can swim and sit comfortably wherever you want. Again, a few people take passengers to the bays by boat at exorbitant prices. Since there are no restrictions, boats coming and going to the shore pose a danger to those swimming. In short, I won't come again. If you are very curious, you can come once.

It is a quite famous place but it is also really overrated.It is dirty and abandoned one. It is a place for backpackers and radical chic. There are better places. The only positive aspect was the bus service from Fethiye direct to the beach.

I got the dolmus from Oludeniz and walked down from the bus stop, not easy underfoot but great walk down. The beach is lovely and there is a nice restaurant at the bottom too. I got a taxi back which was a bit of a rip off but I didn't fancy the hike back up..

After arriving to Kabak Köyü, a remote valley close to Fethiye which you can only reach by car or bus (which stops at 7pm), with nothing but nature and tree houses around, I thought I had found heaven on earth. As a solo female traveler who didn’t speak Turkish, I kept my wits about me, however still received unwanted attention, comments and advances from the local males (including those who work in the camps.) I highly advice solo female travelers to avoid this place unless you are in a group with guys or can speak Turkish. There is NO Police or hospital in the valley, although most places have WiFi, it can be spotty and often you cannot get phone signal. I tried to fight my gut instinct because the place is truly breathtaking and stayed 4 nights, trying to make the most of my holiday, however, was made to feel uncomfortable and unsafe on 3/4 of the nights that I was there, and on multiple occasions. On top of which, I heard multiple gunshots in the forrest one evening. Unless you have a car, there’s no way to leave the valley after 7pm. I feel so bad having to write any of this, because the location, a lot of the people I met and most of the camps were great, but it’s an honest account of my own experience as a solo traveler and I want other girls to know what they’re getting into if they choose to head there alone.

If you want to chill out drinking Efes and watching the sun go down then the bar on Kabak beach is the perfect place to do it. The music is pure Cafe Del Mar style covers of anything and everything.

This is a stunning area which is unspoilt. There are a couple of little cafes with stunning views over the mountains and ocean.However to get to Kabak beach it is a fairly difficult climb down so is not suitable for very young children, the elderly, disabled or very unfit. However if you are happy to do the 5 kilometer walk down (and back) to the bay then you will be rewarded with a totally unspoilt beach and bay with magnificent scenery towering above you. Take drinks and food if making the trip down to the beach.

I absolutely adore Kabak and hope it doesn't get anymore built up than it is as it's completely perfect at the moment and I wouldn't change it a bit! If you want to visit the proper Turkey then you must visit Kabak, quaint little restaurants overlooking a beautiful cove, turquoise blue water, fantastic snorkelling and amazing views!

You can get a dolmus very easily from Oludeniz and the view there is breathtaking and even better on the return journey as the sun was setting!
