Arp Dalyan ★★★

"We had an excellent stay at ARP Hotel, Dalyan. This hotel is a hidden gem right on the edge of the Dalyan Lake and looking out across to the ancient Dalyan Tombs. Owner Berk Özgen and his team of staff cannot do enough for you and go out of their way to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. The rooms are well equipped with regular towel change, bedding change and room cleaning. In high season I believe the boat service from the town centre to the world famous Iztuzu Beach will pick up and drop off at the hotel dock if requested. And then there's the fabulous, included Turkish Breakfast, which it has to be said is fantastic, including eggs, fruits, various cheeses and lots more all freshly prepared by the team. "

Hilton Dalaman Sarigerme Resort & Golf ★★★★★

"I first visited the Hilton Dalaman in 2010 and then returned again in 2012. I came back in June 2026 after a gap of around 14 years. A lot of time has passed, but at its core this remains a really fantastic five star all inclusive resort. Overall, the service is very good and the resort itself is beautiful. On this visit I decided to stay in one of the first floor Lake House suites, complete with its own staircase leading directly down to a private terrace by the pool. The Lake House area is excellent including dedicated bars. If your budget allows, I would strongly recommend upgrading to this part of the resort. Between renting gazebos and having this terrace at a pool with easy access to drinks and snacks, we never once set up at the main complex pool area so made the experience a little more intimate. I think it is worth setting expectations from the outset. This is a Hilton resort and, for anyone familiar with Hilton, there are always opportunities to enhance your holiday through additional experiences and upgrades. However, these all come at a cost. Whilst this is an all inclusive resort, unless you choose to book one of the higher room categories and pay for some of the additional experiences, your stay is likely to remain at the standard entry level. That said, even at entry level this is still a genuine five star all inclusive resort that lives up to expectations. The grounds are immaculate and exceptionally well maintained. The pools are fantastic and I was pleasantly surprised to observe that there were usually sunbeds available around the main pool area. Food and drink offers are superb. The main buffet restaurant is probably one of the best buffet restaurants I have experienced in any resort hotel. The variety on offer is excellent, there is an abundance of food available, the buffet is constantly replenished and everything I ate was of a consistently high standard. One issue I did observe was guest behaviour around the buffet, particularly involving children. On more than one occasion I saw unsupervised children eating directly from the buffet, which is clearly unhygienic. When this was pointed out to staff they did not appear particularly able to intervene or deal with the situation so some training is needed in the absence of parents. On our first visit to the main restaurant it would also have been helpful to receive a brief explanation of how everything worked. Staff simply ushered us through the entrance without any guidance. There is no table allocation, no taking guests to a table, and no introduction to the restaurant layout. Whilst I appreciate the resort has become significantly larger since my previous visits, some basic orientation would have been useful so this is an area that could improve. Drink service in the main restaurant is good when you first arrive but thereafter it becomes much harder to attract attention. If you want additional drinks you are generally left trying to catch the attention of a waiter"

Dolphin Park Hotel ★★★

"Breakfast was nice, no more. Very monotonous. Room had some problems ie: Chair to sit in front of laptop missing. Cleaning was only done upon request. Cleaning lady entered my room without permission. Manager was constantly in a bad mood, never an hello, good morning, how are you? or even good bye."

Smyrna Hotel Dalyan ★★★

"Our second visit to Smyrna Hotel. Brought some friends this time. They loved it too. Staff cleanliness pool & location are perfect. And a lovely Turkish breakfast too."

Dalyan Hotel Nish Caria ★★★★

"I can't rate this hotel because we were upgraded to the CARIA Luxury Hotel. So I'm writing a review of the other hotel. Thank you for checking us in with a river view; the view is simply wonderful. The location is beautiful, the rooms, the staff, the food, everything was excellent."

Kamarca House Hotel ★★★★

DNA Hotel Dalyan ★★

"What a wonderful stay at what I would consider a superb hotel in Dalyan. This is a family run hotel and we were made to feel so welcome. The room was spotless and the white cotton bed linen and towels were a delight. Nothing was too much trouble for Alp and his team and Jeran, who worked in the bar, always had a ready smile. I would happily book to stay here again."

Aydos Hotels & Breeze Restaurant

"It's good for the price, but the breakfast tables are insufficient; people sometimes have to stand or wait. There are no napkin holders on the tables. The breakfast itself is satisfactory. The good thing about the rooms is that since it's a duplex, there's air conditioning on both the lower and upper floors."

The Remote Hotel ★★★

"This hotel is wonderful. Quiet, relaxing and very comfortable. Away from the hubbub of Sarigerme but close enough if that’s what you feel like. There are only 13 rooms so it will never be really busy. If you want access to the sauna etc they need notice. They can’t just keep everything running on the off chance someone will want to use it. The staff are all lovely and can’t do enough for you. Special thanks to Pillin and Sam but they all deserve a mention. Yes I will return."
