Sedir Resort villa apartments and Dalyan / Turkey
reviews
|
I am a travel writer from Turkey writing for the largest selling newspaper, Hurriyet. I have 6 books and have been awarded 'The Best Travel Writer of Turkey', two years consecutively (www.saffetemretonguc.com). My readers always ask for my favorite place for vacation. Sedir is the answer. This is heaven on earth. The Tarhan family is my reason that I feel at home here, they spoil me with their
personalized care. Food is organic coming from their own garden. The mother Filiz cooks, the father Baki is in charge of the barbecue, two wonderful children Orcun and Barkin run all the time for the ultimate happiness of the guests. The spacious rooms are spotlessly clean and gardens are well maintained. Breakfast with home made bread and jams, wonderful dinners by the pool compliment a fantastic stay. As this is my heaven I would like to stay forever...

| There are many reasons to visit Turkey;
the near-perfect climate, the delicious cuisine, the sun-drenched
beaches, the hospitality of the people – but only 2 compelling reasons
to return time after time; The Tarhan Family & Sedir – a peerless
holiday combination!

| Dear Feliz and Baki,
My family and I would like to say that our holiday was outstanding.
Having traveled to many parts of the world and I can honestly say
our stay with you was one of the best. You and your family and not
forgetting your staff made us feel really welcome, you hospitality
was second to none.
I will most certainly recommend that any one wanting to visit Turkey
stay at Sedir.
You and your family are truly great ambassadors for Turkey.
I look forward to our next meeting.
Kind regards
Your friend

Dear Filiz Hanim and Baki Bey,
I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the warm welcome
and hospitality you provided at Sedir in late July. It was a truly
wonderful and restful experience which I continue to think back upon
wistfully. Everything was ideal, from the immaculate rooms to the
bucolic surroundings to the delicious meals. What impressed me most
was your attention to detail, as nothing escaped your notice. (I still
vividly recall the artfully cut cheese and cucumbers at the breakfast
buffet!) That, combined with your sincere hospitality made for an
altogether relaxing, highly enjoyable getaway.
Many thanks, and I hope to see you in future years.

Dear Baki, Filiz, Orcun, Barkin
You are all such wonderful ambassadors for Turkey. On our first
visit to your country we did not know what to expect but you have
all made our stay here a fantastic experience. We came as strangers
but we leave feeling as though we are part of the family.
We take with us so many memories lazy days by the pool, the simple
pleasure of eating our meals "al fresco", the smell of
food cooking in the clay oven or on the barbecue. Filiz's delicious
meals, watching the moon rise over the mountain with a glass (or
two) of raki or wine!
We have learned to play Turkish board games and joined in the folk
singing. There have been many special days. The jeep safari to the
mountain and Iztuzu (Caretta) beach and the wonderful trip to Saklıkent
Gorge, where Matt kept falling over, and swimming in the deep blue
waters of Oludeniz. Dan and Matt especially enjoyed the friendship
of Orcun and Barkin. Most of all we have enjoyed your special hospitality.
Of course we will miss all of these things but the memories will
remain strong until the next time.
Love from the Drummonds

The Sedir Resort Villa Apartments
I have thought long and about what we can write regarding our holiday
at the Sedir in Dalyan, but I find it bard top put into words the
feelings we have. It has been three years since out last holiday
so we needed a good one we choose the Sedir hotel this web site,
and buy did we choose well. We have travelled in several areas of
the world and I am still to find anywhere that will even come close
to matching the Sedir. The rooms are cool even in mid July. Baki
and Filiz made us feel like one of the family. Most evenings we
cooked barbecue or superb tradiotional home cooking from the clay
oven and on the rest of the week a short walk into Dalyan in the
cool evenings. After a few drinks and a quick Raki with our new
friends from " Paradise Gold", it was into the "The
Sedir deep" with Riky the dog for our short trip through the
town and back to our peaceful haven "The Sedir villa apartments"
each morning we woke to the sound of the cockerel at the bottom
of the garden and after a breakfast of fresh yoghurt home made of
course by Filiz. We sat by almost "Olympic pool" only
looking but it was big and enjoyed each day as much as the last
Baki and his family are genuine people the type I feel we could
know for the rest of our lives. We still don't know what the words
to the songs they sang in the evenings really mean but the sights
sounds and feelings of the The Sedir Resort villa apartments will
stay with us until the next time we visit. If you are in any doubt
about the Sedir Resort you can contact myself and Rachael. We are
from the UK.

| Dear Friends
We can call you that because that is how you have made us feel
..!
All we can say thank heavens for the internet ..We were looking
in Greece and
some how found ourselves in Turkey.. The best mistake we ever made
..
Spoke the Drummonds who confirmed what we saw on the website Baki
, Filiz
family and staff made us feel comfortable and to quote others a
part of their
family ..
The standard of cleanliness and helpfulness is second none.. Sedir
Resort villa apartment
is an Oasis of peace and tranquility ..
Turkey is the most beautiful country and as first timers in the
country what
a perfect introduction !
We have found the Turkish sense of humour absolutely brilliant and
have so
enjoyed.. The conversation and laughter at dinner under the stars
at Sedir Resort Dalyan..
We never return to the same place twice but with Sedir we make an
exception ..
We will be dragged away to the airport screaming !!!
Until next year many thanks

We have just returned from our 3rd visit to Sedir Resort and further
to our
previous review we have to reiterate how wonderful it still is.
Every time we visit Sedir Resort we leave a piece of 'us' behind,
we envisage
visiting again and again, we can't stay away for too long or we
get
withdrawal symptoms.
Baki and Filiz remain the perfect hosts along with their family
and staff
nothing is too much trouble including finding me a dentist and
accompanying me as translator.
There is a rapidly growing 'Sedir Club' of returning guests who
like us
can't stay away from the tranquility of the mountains and the welcome
of
this lovely Turkish family.
Once you have read this please ignore it as we want to keep it to
ourselves!
