La Kalinda Bozcaada

We'd happily come back here. The little hotel is close to the city center, and there is free parking all over the island. You can reach any beach, with the farthest about 10 minutes away. The owners live here and take such good care of guests. You can feel how much love they put into the place, and it feels like a home away from home. Ms. Görkem, the owner and chef, made us incredible breakfasts every morning. I'd stay just for that spread alone, it was a culinary experience.

We felt at home from the moment we arrived, and they looked after all our needs with such warmth and sincerity. For our first trip to Bozcaada, we'd researched hotels a lot, and we knew right away we'd made the right choice. Ms. Görkem and Mr. İsmail greeted us so warmly and gave us wonderful tips about the island. Their energy is amazing, you can tell they love what they do. The rooms were spotless and the garden was so peaceful. Ms. Görkem is especially talented with breakfast, she's a real expert, and you'd miss out if you didn't try it. Our holiday was fantastic thanks to this great hotel. I already know where I'll stay next time, no more hotel research needed. Thanks so much for everything. I hope not everyone finds this place or we'll have trouble getting a room next time 🙈💖😊

The taxi, places to visit, restaurants, and where to shop on the island were all covered in İsmail Abi's introduction. After that, we just kept asking about everything because the conversation was so lovely. The hotel is within walking distance of the market, or a two-minute drive if you don't want to walk. We took a taxi. We stumbled on La Kalinda by chance and ended up so grateful for our luck. We chose Bozcaada for a holiday with my family, and La Kalinda was one of the best parts of our three-day trip. The owners' kindness, courtesy, and hospitality made us very happy. The breakfast deserves its own mention, with such amazing variety, freshness, warmth, and generous portions. My daughter now talks about “La Kalinda breakfast and Görkem pastry.” The room was clean and high quality too, everything felt perfect. La Kalinda will be our home in Bozcaada from now on. Ms. Görkem, Mr. İsmail, you're wonderful. See you in autumn ☀️🧡

Even with all the crowds in Bozcaada, this hotel is quiet and right in the center. We had the chance to visit during our holiday and were welcomed so warmly. It's a cozy, friendly place, and the owners really do a great job ❤️
