Spektr Boutique Hotel Yalikavak

Excellent hotel, lovely staff esp manager Mr Ogushan (hope I spell that correctly) We were in a sea view deluxe room in Block D (411) which is definitely worth it if you can get it. It had unobstructed sea views on the corner and wasn't directly overlooking the pool from the balcony and was quite secluded. Food in the hotel is very good - try the gharcho soup and dumplings. Breakfast is very nice and filling, pretty a la carte, with plenty of simit bread, honey and cream and a selection of fruit, cheese and olives. The location is good for keeping a little way fom the marina and busy life with a 10 minute walk down to the sea front restaurants, but you'll want a taxi back up (around 200 lira). Most places in town were shut down now it is end of season, but still worth visiting for a quiet break. Spektr is not great fro elderly or little kids as it is a hilly area and lots of steps to rooms and reception. Fab views and friendly staff.

We originally planned to stay for just one week, but ended up staying seven weeks – and that alone says everything! The manager Dominic was super helpful and always went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable❤️ The food was absolutely amazing, with great variety and quality every day. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. We truly felt at home here and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

Amazing hotel! All staff are so helpful and will assist with anything you need. They go above and beyond and give great recommendations. The kittens are so friendly and sweet, we loved spending time with them. Location is fabulous and the pool has an amazing view. The whole hotel and restaurant is very clean and tidy. We will definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Brilliant location, staff were very friendly, polite and accommodating to make our trip perfect. The kittens on the hotel grounds were unbelievably cute and friendly we loved meeting them, they made our trip! Will definitely be coming back here (hopefully to see the kittens), and will be recommending.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an incredible stay at Spektr Boutique Hotel! The customer service was outstanding, and I especially want to commend the hotel manager, Dominic. He went above and beyond to ensure that my experience was perfect, always available to assist with a smile. The facilities, including the amazing pool, were top-notch, and the hotel food was absolutely delicious. The warm and welcoming atmosphere made my visit truly memorable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for exceptional service, comfort, and great amenities! 18th - 23rd July 2025.

This hotel looks just like the pictures—absolutely gorgeous, with amazing staff who are friendly and attentive. There are multiple pools depending on which section of the hotel you're staying in, so they tend to be quiet and not overcrowded. While there's no dedicated bar service at the pools, staff make regular rounds to take orders, so you can still enjoy tea or drinks by the water.||One thing to note: I wouldn't recommend booking a transfer through the hotel, as we were quoted nearly double the price of a standard taxi. Also, due to its location, you can hear distant party noise throughout the night, which may be a downside for light sleepers.||The hotel sits at the top of a steep hill, so if you’re uncomfortable with steep roads, this might not be the best option.||That said, I would stay here again—it was a lovely overall experience. Just keep in mind that the à la carte restaurant isn’t really worth the extra cost, as the food was underwhelming. Breakfast, on the other hand, was decent.

I had a wonderful stay at Spektr Boutique Hotel in Yalıkavak. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and I must give special thanks to the manager who was extremely helpful, attentive, and always went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, making me feel right at home. I honestly wouldn’t have wanted to stay anywhere else – highly recommended!

Special thank you to the lovely staff at this hotel who looked after us after a personal illness during our stay. We felt very looked after and were grateful to be in such a beautiful place during a difficult time. We visited before the season started, so it was incredibly quiet but this really suited us. The hotel has beautiful views. We loved the balcony and walk in wardrobe in our room and there are plenty of pools around the property where the staff will bring you lunch or drinks to order. The property is surrounded by stunning flowers, the walk to breakfast amongst the flowers was beautiful. Special mention also to the really good breakfast. The setting was very peaceful and we much preferred having the breakfast cooked to order with lots of different accompaniments compared to a buffet breakfast. We ate dinner here one night and the food was lovely. The staff were very gentle and pleasant. All in all a lovely hotel in a beautiful spot. We didn't rent a car as it was a short visit, for a longer stay we would probably rent a car to do more exploring, but there are taxis around and the walk down the hill isn't too bad.
