Kapukargın apart villa

The owner, Uğur, and his family were kind and helpful, a lovely example of Turkish hospitality. When I mentioned a mosquito had got inside, he even brought us repellent. 🤣🤣 It's a comfortable, fully equipped 3-bedroom apartment with plenty of beds, and a great place to stay when flying into or out of Dalaman. We'd come back with friends or family so we can all stay together.

We had a lovely day at Ugur's house. The rooms were clean and tidy, and we especially enjoyed the grape trellis in the yard. It's a quiet, beautiful place near the beach, with orchards and mountains all around. The grilled fish meals were among the best.

We loved the breakfast the host prepared for us. It costs extra and has traditional, locally sourced items. You can also order food from the menu, and everything we tried was delicious. The terrace is a lovely spot for breakfast, with fantastic views over fields, orchards, and mountains in the morning and evening. There are organic foods, orchards, chickens, and fresh fruit around, giving the place a real taste of rural Turkey. It's clean and peaceful, and the two bedrooms suited our family of four, though the house could easily fit 8-10 people. The host was exceptionally helpful. He sourced things for us, took me to town to buy barbecue supplies, brought us to a lovely local beach about 15 minutes away by car, and cooked a nice BBQ on our last day. He lives next door with his family, so he was easy to reach and always ready to go out of his way. There's a small garden shed for traditional Turkish evening meals, which we really liked. Barbecue facilities are available too, though bring mosquito repellent for summer evenings outside. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking. You can also ask the host for airport pickup and transfers. He charged very little, even for our 5 am drop-off. Dalaman Airport is about 10 minutes away by car and Dalaman City around 15/18 minutes, yet there's no air traffic noise. If you're flying at an odd hour or need a local place to stay, this is ideal. The area is quiet and well away from the city bustle.

Ugur was a kind and helpful host, replied quickly, and arranged a taxi to the airport. I appreciated all his help. The property was hygienic and spacious, with a nice view, and the food served was excellent. I'd definitely recommend it.
