We have stayed at the Pataros hotel before, several times, and love the fact it hasn't changed. The staff are amazing, as is the food, and it is such a beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.

Very helpful and friendly host. It was quiet, the view was remarkable. The rooms were exactly as in the pictures, even the flowers were on the bed.

Very nice little family-owned place, we were the only guests

Visited a couple of times before. Village restaurants not so good as previously. Simbar charging more than in Kalkan for cocktails! Village generally very quiet this time, no buzz, however first time visiting in Sept, which may account for this. Bus timetable not worth publishing as they come when they want and don't always go to the bus station.

Despite its popularity, Patara remains a traditional Turkish village. This is because it is protected for both archaeological and nature reasons. Turtles nest here. We visit regularly. It is all accessible on foot but if it's very hot or you have trouble walking any distance, it is best to get the dolmus to the beach. Yes, you have to pay to enter the beach but this is because it is part of an archaeological site. The beach was very, very crowded on a hot summer weekend (avoid in high season if you don't like crowds) but it is so long it's easy to find space to sit and swim. Patara is very convenient for visits to other sites like Xanthos and Letoon.

Patara must be the one of the most perfect holiday destinations. An enormous, world class beach which means it is never crowded.
In addition you walk past or through the excavated Lycian and Roman ruins of the ancient port city - amazing!
And, of course, the wonderful generosity and good nature of the locals.

The village was small and very chilled with no hassle.
The village was small and very chilled with no hassle. I'm a single Mum and went with my 11 year old daughter and it was such a safe environment. The people were really helpful and friendly. It actually reminded me a bit of Guatemala, bit of a hippy laid back vibe, no McDonalds etc in sight! The beach was amazing, great waves for body boarding and miles of golden sand with only one beach restaurant, so unspoilt! Surrounded by ruins and a laying ground for turtles has ensured Patara beach isn't flooded with shops, beach bars etc, so 10 miles of loveliness. Best beach I've ever been to in Europe easily... Food in Patara is really affordable, booze a bit more (Muslim country) but fine. Some restaurants don't sell booze but plenty do! Spent so much less this holiday than in Greece. I never usually go to the same place twice but would seriously consider returning to Patara. Loved it!
This was probably one of our favorite places we stayed in Turkey and we stayed at all places we rated at least a 9 out of 10. The staff is incredibly friendly and the small bungalow hotel style rooms are awesome. You have your own front porch area and even a clothes line to hang clothes. There are food gardens all around the rooms. The restaurant here is AMAZING. There are a few parking spots on the hotel property If you’re driving. I highly recommend this hotel!
The view from the balcony is really nice, towards the mountains and a town below. The garden of the hotel is really beautiful, full of various plants that create a really cozy atmosphere of the place. Another plus is that the breakfast terrace is located just above the garden, so you can enjoy this nice place even more. The breakfast is good, one of the few hotels I've visited in Turkey that serve delicious cookies :)
Nice cozy location with excellent view and clean house. Enjoyed the pool and the Host was excellent in answering any Qs or needs. Will visit again. You can drive around and discover many beaches all the way to Antalia!!!! Many restaurants close to the Villa and the kitchen was fully equipped!!!! Many thanks for sharing your property with us!!!!
We returned to the Hotel after a visit 14 years ago and were not disappointed. Serdar and his wife were the perfect hosts and could not do enough for us. The breakfast was very good and the pool perfect. Lifts down to the beach were offered every day. Two special barbecues helped make the stay a very memorable one indeed.
Great location in a small town near Patara beach and dunes. We liked the breakfast very much and the terrace where it was served is beautiful. Markets and restaurants are very close and offer good prices. There is a fridge and kettle on the first floor if you need it. Free and fast wifi, laundry service for a reasonable fee.
Very friendly and helpful staff, who met our every request.
Great breakfast included in the price.
Excellent location in Patara - the Pension is not far from Patara Beach and the Ancient City. There are also a couple of nice restaurants and shops around. The Lycian Path to Kalkan starts right opposite the building.
Everything. The staff were lovely, location great. We ate in their restaurant the last evening and the food was lovely too. We've been travelling around the whole or turkey and it's the cleanest and best kept room we've stayed in. They lend you towels for the pool/beach.
This is a very good budget option in Patara. The accommodation is basic, but clean and everything works (including aircon). The staff was very friendly, the location was fine, and the fairly basic breakfast was improved with fresh-baked bazlama bread.
The only moment we were satisfied with our holiday was Patara beach. I would like to say this for those who do not know; Since Patara beach is a historical place, beach entrance and sunbeds / umbrellas are always charged.
It is a nice and cosy place run by a friendly family. Food was good and in large portions. The hotel is right next to the main road, so it easy to reach and there was not much noise. The room/hotel was clean.
We have stayed at the Pataros hotel before, several times, and love the fact it hasn't changed. The staff are amazing, as is the food, and it is such a beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.
A lovely hotel, just outside the centre of town.
Pretty swimming pool surrounded by plants.
Excellent breakfast.
Very nice host, gave us lots of information about where to get dinner in town.
Bekir the owner is a great guy. Very responsible and helpful. The house is clean and well made. Much better then usual hotel rooms. It is just what is advertised. Great value for the money!!!
the pension was very clean, warm hearted owner and his wife, in the center of the city and close to the beach and the ancient city
very nice, healthy and generous breakfast
