Beachway Hotel

The restaurant next door serves good lokanta-style food, and breakfast was good too. Staff were very friendly, and the place was tidy. There were a few niggles in the room: the sink had no plug, and even with one it would take about 10 minutes to fill; the tooth glass had old, dried toothpaste at the bottom. The AC made the inside wall vibrate like a drum and kept me awake. Floor tiles outside room 205 need replacing, and the WiFi unit hangs from the wire instead of being properly fixed to the wall. Still, apart from those minor issues, it’s a good place.

The terrace is a lovely place for an exquisite dinner, and the food in the photos really is world class. Most of the produce is grown or made by the family, purely organic, and the price feels inexpensive for this level of service. Breakfast is fabulous, with panoramic views that make waking up feel like paradise. Yener met me at the airport and drove me to the hotel. The outside doesn’t show the full picture, but inside the rooms are tastefully done and spotlessly clean. There are several beaches nearby, including one just a two-minute walk away, and they’ll also drive you to the beach I love. The Dolphin Bar there is my favourite. I never expected this kind of fine dining at a beautiful boutique hotel. If only there were a Beachway Way Boutique in every country I visit. They could show other hoteliers what service really means.

The owner handles airport transfers, which take around 45 minutes, and makes sure you have what you need for a top-quality stay. The hotel itself is modern, clean, and had everything we needed; the beach is about a five-minute walk away. A banquet-style breakfast on the roof terrace, with panoramic bay views, was a real highlight. We’ll definitely return.

The hotel was very clean, with plenty of good, fresh food that just kept coming. Yenner, Hatuna, and Laly were so welcoming and worked hard to make sure we had everything we wanted. They made us feel at home. Excellent hosts and lovely people, thanks for making this a holiday we’ll never forget. I’d definitely recommend the hotel.
