Villa Hotel Tamara

Booked at 4.2 rating, arrived to find it dropped to 3.8. There was no WiFi on the day due to maintenance, luckily my phone had signal! The hotel is built at the bottom of a cliff, requiring a drive up a 60-degree steep slope to reach the parking lot – a very unique location. We arrived at 10 PM, but the front desk had already closed. Ultimately, a pool staff member helped us get our room key, making for a chaotic check-in process. The sea view from the room genuinely matched the photos, but the value for money was extremely poor: we booked for 1600 RMB, yet on the day of arrival, the same room type was directly 400 RMB cheaper – an outrageous price difference. (The room had a sea view, and the bedding and mattress were decent). Breakfast was served from 8-10 AM, and the variety was acceptable. However, we weren't informed that coffee would be charged. At check-out, we were directly debited 420 Lira for two iced lattes, a hidden cost that left a very bad impression. The service was extremely polarized: the pool staff were friendly, but the front desk was cold, lazy, and unreasonable, showing no service awareness throughout. The room had no toiletries whatsoever, like toothbrushes or shower gel, so you need to bring your own. The shower had strong water pressure, but you had to let it run for a long time to get hot water. The hotel's layout was extremely illogical; the front desk was on the lowest floor, while the parking garage was essentially on the second or third floor, making lugging luggage up and down the slopes very inconvenient. The only upside was the nice view from the cliffside pool; otherwise, the entire experience was a disaster. I do not recommend staying here. Honestly, this entire region isn't even worth visiting; I found the scenery to be average. Istanbul and the hot air balloons are enough to represent Turkey's beauty.

The biggest problem with this hotel is that it's not worth the price, nearly 1600 RMB. The hotel is located on a small island, and the road is difficult to navigate. The waves were extremely high at night, and I barely slept a wink. I asked many other guests in the morning, and they all had terrible sleep. The noise from the waves at night was terrifying, enough to scare you to death; the waves were crashing against your doors and windows. Not getting enough rest directly affected my subsequent road trip. Traveling during the off-season, the hotel's amenities were very poor, definitely not worth the price. It's worlds apart from the Akara Hotel in Antalya. The breakfast was also deserted. Most of the guests were Chinese tourists, probably drawn by reviews. The bed smelled musty. Therefore, I'm writing a very objective review.

Located on the Kaş Peninsula, the hotel boasts stunning scenery, a swimming pool, and a beach, making it a perfect place for a relaxing vacation. I stayed for two nights and loved it; I would definitely choose this hotel again if I have the chance to visit Turkey.

I have to give this a bad review. I arrived around 11:40 PM. There were no streetlights, and the hotel signs were barely visible. I had to navigate down a steep 60-degree slope in the dark to finally see the hotel entrance, but there was no one at the front desk. They didn't leave me a message or email, and there was no room key. It felt like a ghostly castle, very scary. I left immediately. After finding another hotel, I requested a refund, but it was refused. Oh well, I guess I just paid for this bad review.

There's a long, very steep downhill slope to the hotel; be careful if you're driving as it can easily damage your car.

The hotel is very quiet, the rooms are large, and the swimming pool is very beautiful. My favorite place is that there is a platform where you can jump directly into the sea. It is very comfortable to bask in the sun here in the morning. I feel that staying for one day is not enough, and I haven’t fully enjoyed the sun and sea water here~ The hotel staff are very enthusiastic and friendly to us. There are several kittens in the hotel, which are their stars here~

A small but beautiful hotel with a beautiful view, a lot of style and comfortable and well-equipped rooms. Perfect for a holiday.

Super beautiful hotel, the staff is also very friendly and enthusiastic to help solve all problems! Will come back again!
