1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Swimming in the crystal clear water.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
The hiking trails are VERY rocky. Plan accordingly.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
It benefitted local people. Throughout Turkey we are encouraged to use bottled water vs tap water which creates a lot of plastic waste. A local fountain for refills was pointed out but it was not in a convenient location.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience.Read the operator's response here:
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We’re committed to reducing our environmental impact, and we know that minimising plastic use while staying hydrated can be challenging, especially in areas where bottled water is more accessible.
To help address this, we proudly partner with Water-to-Go, a portable filtration system that removes over 99.9% of microbiological contaminants, including
viruses, bacteria, and chemicals, from any non-saltwater source. This allows travellers to refill their bottles from any tap, stream, or even puddles,
eliminating the need for single-use plastics. You can find more information on this sustainable solution on our website.
Thank you again for highlighting this important topic, and we hope to keep improving our efforts to support the communities we visit and protect our
planet.

Hotel was woeful. Breakfast was unimpressive and boring. Didn't get a warm shower until the third day, as water was cold. Actually got a hot shower on the 5th day after waiting 10mins for the water to warm up. No fridge in room and drinking water was only provided at breakfast. I got really thirsty.Lori Porreca review 26 Nov 2023
