Caretta Hotel♡

Pleasant.

Not for children, water too deep. Beds okay the whole place needs maintenance. Had to request, room to be cleaned, beds to be changed, bins to be emptied. Very expensive for single occupancy so shouldn’t have to ask. People very friendly and laid back.

Loved it here, especially the dogs

Super hotel We absolutely adored this hotel. The family atmosphere was wonderful. The dogs were a bonus, so friendly & gentle. Because of this we missed our own dog a little less. Breakfast was delicious. Gorgeous setting. It’s a traditional Turkish hotel. If you want faceless, modern places this is not for you. Yes, a little updating wouldn’t hurt but you are not buying the place. We would return in a shot. 15 mins stroll to town, stunning views. Beautiful location but most of all the wonderful family who run this place. Thank you so much.

Absolutely loved this hotel, if you want an authentic Turkish experience with fabulous staff & breakfasts, not to mention the best welcomes from their gorgeous dogs. Caretta is a great choice. Yes, there could be more maintenance work done around the place but for the time we stayed it didn’t matter at all. We loved it and would return. Thank you all at the Caretta.

Loud and dangerous dogs

The owner of this hotel has a dog which he leaves outside barking and wakes up everyone in the near vicinity every morning at dawn. It also attracts a pack of wild dogs which wait aggressively outside the hotel at night. It’s totally anti-social and dangerous. Don’t stay here.

Pretty view and cheap, but not welcoming and run down

Pros * Beautiful bay view * Cheap, much cheaper than staying in the old town * Breakfast was good, fast and varied * Beach club pretty (but a bit rundown now) Cons * No water or cold drink with breakfast * No info about the hotel or area on arrival, in fact staff generally just not very helpful or welcoming - made me feel a bit uncomfortable. * The room wasn’t made unless I asked, even then they didn’t change towels/sheets at all just refolded, didn’t empty bin or replace toilet roll so twice we had to go and ask for more which was embarrassing. * Electrics go off when you take the key out meaning fridge doesn’t stay cold * Dogs frequently barking through the night * No lighting walking up the track back to the hotel at night Overall, as a place to lay your head it’s fine but I wouldn’t go back.

The drains.

Terribly dissatisfied. This could be a nice hotel but requires an urgent change in management. The worst bit was the stench from the bathroom - I went in in the morning and wanted to vomit. The electrics are dodgy, the furniture tired and the cleaning lacking. Breakfast was basic and unappealing- some old bread with little packets of jam, butter and honey and some unwashed tomatoes. We didn’t see any cleaners around and that showed - it could be a lovely place given the location but it was so unpleasant we couldn’t wait to go.
