Simsek Apart Datca

We felt completely at home at this lovely family-run place. Mr. Murat, Ms. Sibel, and Ms. Gökçe were friendly, attentive, and great to chat with. They had everything we might need ready, and even set up the barbecue for dinner. Having sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach was a really nice touch. We're sure we'll stay again. Thank you! 😊

We spent five days at Şimşek Apart in Datça/Palamutbükü in August, and it really felt like home. My teachers Murat and Gökçe are wonderful people. We shared those days like a family, and I'm grateful for all their care and attention. See you soon.

There was everything we needed in the apartment, and it was clean and comfortable since the owners live there with their family. Fresh vegetables grow in the garden, there's a play area for children, and parking is available. The sea, restaurants, and markets are all within walking distance. They also have their own beach with sun loungers and umbrellas. We were very pleased with this peaceful family-run place in Palamutbükü. Mr. Murat, Ms. Gökçe, and Ms. Sibel were helpful, cheerful, friendly, and thoughtful people, unlike the owners at other apartments we've stayed in. We hope to see them again.

The area feels like a small neighborhood, safe all around, and children can take an evening walk by the beach even when you're not with them. Restaurants, cafes, markets, and bakeries are close. Hayıtbükü, Ovabükü, and Gerence Bay are about ten minutes away, while Knidos is twenty minutes away. We loved swimming in Gerence Bay in the morning and watching the sunset at Knidos later. The sunbeds and umbrellas on Palamutbükü beach are handy too. We stayed four nights in 2024 and enjoyed it so much that we returned for nine nights this summer. Thanks to Ms. Sibel, Ms. Gökçe, and Mr. Murat, we had a peaceful, happy holiday. Their hospitality makes you feel like summer neighbors, not customers. Thank you, Şimşek Apart, for everything.
