I have stayed at Lavanta a couple of times this year for a week each time. I work in Istanbul and it is great to have somewhere to escape to for a complete change to the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. The hotel is wonderfully quiet and they even request that patrons around the pool refrain from using their mobile... More

If you are in Bodrum for the beach then this hotel is an expensive junk! The hotel is far from the beach and also very expensive. There are plenty of nice and reasonable hotels by the seaside of Yalikavak. For example, Altinkoy is one of the nice hotels in Yalikavak. This hotel is placed on top of a hill and... More

Very homely and friendly reception. Nice pool and garden, feels like staying at a friends house. Pity there is no restaurant but the breakfast is great and the view from the terrace amazing. Rooms slightly outdated but comfortable and everything is clean and works.

We are just back from a week's holiday at Hotel Lavanta where we had the most amazing time. From the lovely breakfast each morning overlooking the amazing peninsula, to the tea time cakes at 5.00 pm, every little detail was taking care of by our hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Maria and Tosun are only too happy to... More

Single woman traveling alone, I needed a one week stay in a calm, peaceful and soothing place. The reviews I had read on Lavanta Hotel really helped me in deciding to go there and everything they say is true : Maria and Tossun legendary warmth, the incredible relaxing atmosphere, the delicious homemade cakes at tea time, the smiling and welcoming...

This place is really unique, great location on a hill with an amazing view. I spent 2 great weeks with my family, we all enjoyed the place, location but more importantly the nice and relaxing atmosphere and friendship of Maria and Tosun and their staff. Breakfast, tea time with Maria's handmade cakes, sunset, pool are the things we enjoyed most... More
