Dalyan
Amid a magical garden of cypress trees and palms, the 14 rooms here are simple and rather small, but comfortable and stylishly decorated with natural materials. The lovely terrace-dock waiting for you to take the plunge is a plus, and the view of the illuminated Kings' Tombs by night is priceless.
Owners İlknur and Münir make their own plum and fig jams from their fruit trees and lay on superb three-course home-cooked meals when pre-ordered.
