This was our favorite place to stay in Turkey. The couple that run it are so warm and giving. The location is perfect, nature all around and a great beach 10 minutes away. The town has everything you need great restaurants and very friendly locals! The room and property are great and watch out the dog steals hearts….!

I liked how well equipped and clean it was. They also have the best Turkish breakfast I have ever had (I've had a lot). The room was comfortable and the staff was friendly. I would stay here again in the future.

Located in Patara, 25 miles from Lycian Rock Cemetery, Beso Patara provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a private beach area.
Visited a couple of times before. Village restaurants not so good as previously. Simbar charging more than in Kalkan for cocktails! Village generally very quiet this time, no buzz, however first time visiting in Sept, which may account for this. Bus timetable not worth publishing as they come when they want and don't always go to the bus station.

Despite its popularity, Patara remains a traditional Turkish village. This is because it is protected for both archaeological and nature reasons. Turtles nest here. We visit regularly. It is all accessible on foot but if it's very hot or you have trouble walking any distance, it is best to get the dolmus to the beach. Yes, you have to pay to enter the beach but this is because it is part of an archaeological site. The beach was very, very crowded on a hot summer weekend (avoid in high season if you don't like crowds) but it is so long it's easy to find space to sit and swim. Patara is very convenient for visits to other sites like Xanthos and Letoon.

Patara must be the one of the most perfect holiday destinations. An enormous, world class beach which means it is never crowded.
In addition you walk past or through the excavated Lycian and Roman ruins of the ancient port city - amazing!
And, of course, the wonderful generosity and good nature of the locals.

The village was small and very chilled with no hassle.
The village was small and very chilled with no hassle. I'm a single Mum and went with my 11 year old daughter and it was such a safe environment. The people were really helpful and friendly. It actually reminded me a bit of Guatemala, bit of a hippy laid back vibe, no McDonalds etc in sight! The beach was amazing, great waves for body boarding and miles of golden sand with only one beach restaurant, so unspoilt! Surrounded by ruins and a laying ground for turtles has ensured Patara beach isn't flooded with shops, beach bars etc, so 10 miles of loveliness. Best beach I've ever been to in Europe easily... Food in Patara is really affordable, booze a bit more (Muslim country) but fine. Some restaurants don't sell booze but plenty do! Spent so much less this holiday than in Greece. I never usually go to the same place twice but would seriously consider returning to Patara. Loved it!
This place is really great, it is clean, has a good location - you will easily find the place where to eat, there are small shops nearby, Pattara ruines and very beautiful beach are pretty close to the pension. Owners are so nice. There was a problem with air conditioning, owner informed me about it and changed reservation by providing us better conditions, than we expected. There is a dog, but we did not have a chance to pet her, as she was sleeping all the time. Breakfast was cooked with love and was tasty.
- Very well maintained green area with a beautiful view of the pool and palm trees from the balcony. The rooms are clean and tidy. Good wi-fi.
- Delicious breakfasts, there are always fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables.
- Attentive host and his family are always ready to help solve any problems.
- A gorgeous sandy beach, which can be reached in several ways. In the evening, you can go to the sand dunes and admire the sunset.
Thank you for your hospitality, we enjoyed everything! Highly recommended!
Our family enjoyed our 4 night stay at Patara Delfin Hotel. All the staff were friendly and helpful; the breakfast, pool, tea time, beach shuttle, and location were all great! Lunch at the hotel was convenient and good. We visited the beach, ruins, and ate good meals in town. We ate one meal at the nearby St. Nicholas restaurant and it was fun to know the server there since they also worked at the Patara Delfin hotel. We would stay here again if we return to Patara / Gelemis.
The view from the balcony is really nice, towards the mountains and a town below. The garden of the hotel is really beautiful, full of various plants that create a really cozy atmosphere of the place. Another plus is that the breakfast terrace is located just above the garden, so you can enjoy this nice place even more. The breakfast is good, one of the few hotels I've visited in Turkey that serve delicious cookies :)
Good value for money for tourists who need a room just for sleep. It is noticeable that the staff tries to make the stay for the guests a pleasant one. Breakfast is quite good. The hotel is 3 km away from astonishing Patara beach (you can get to the beach by shuttle minibus, which runs about once an hour; bus stop is in 5 minutes walk from the hotel). The room is clean, there is an air conditioning.
It was a nice family accommodation with friendly and peaceful atmosphere. We liked the location, just above the centre of the village, with a nice view (partial sea view). It was closer to the Patara beach then many other accommodations in Gelemiş and in a walkable distance. We liked the garden around, especially the grapevine with delicious grapes that we were offred to take many times.
Nice cozy location with excellent view and clean house. Enjoyed the pool and the Host was excellent in answering any Qs or needs. Will visit again. You can drive around and discover many beaches all the way to Antalia!!!! Many restaurants close to the Villa and the kitchen was fully equipped!!!! Many thanks for sharing your property with us!!!!
Staff were great. We were warmly welcomed by the manager Hasan who helped us with checking in. Merve is great too and the pool
boy as well (forgot to ask his name) and of course Hatice who is a great cook. We had all of our meals at the hotel thanks to Hatice. She rocks! everyone else was great and we loved the whole vibe and atmosphere there.
We stayed at the Dardanos Hotel for x3 nights and couldn’t fault the hotel. Arif was such an accommodating host, happy to spend time to recommend things to do or places to go, and went out of his way to help you organise things. Swimming pool area was great, rooms were a decent size and clean, and breakfast was great.

Very relaxing and calm hotel. The room was basic but clean and has what you need. Great pool and chill out area. Excellent Turkish breakfast. They also serve lunch and dinner if you want. Very friendly staff. They also had two amazing puppies that we're looking forward to seeing again when we come back next year.
Very nice place. The staff was friendly, the room was spacious and the place itself has a nice layout, with different areas where guests can relax.
The breakfast buffet was one of the best we have had during our trip in Turkey, with fresh fruit from the garden.
Can only recommend.
This is a very good budget option in Patara. The accommodation is basic, but clean and everything works (including aircon). The staff was very friendly, the location was fine, and the fairly basic breakfast was improved with fresh-baked bazlama bread.
Very friendly and helpful hosts (we were hiking part of the Lycian way) who went out of their way to help us
Amazing home cooked evening meals
Swimming pool
Great location for the Lycian way
Not far to walk to Patara ancient city and beach
Excelent cozy hotel. One of the best in that area. Friendly staff. Clean and bright room. Flowers and greens outside. Comfortable atmosphere. If I would come to Patara again, I would like to stay in this hotel again. Thanks a lot!
The only moment we were satisfied with our holiday was Patara beach. I would like to say this for those who do not know; Since Patara beach is a historical place, beach entrance and sunbeds / umbrellas are always charged.
We have stayed at the Pataros hotel before, several times, and love the fact it hasn't changed. The staff are amazing, as is the food, and it is such a beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.
The host is German, who can speak good English. The pool is very clean and warm, overlooking the valley. It is in Patara town, convenient to visit both Patara ancient city and the beach.
