Super unique experience but not without quirks and issues. Extremely unique experience, absolutely amazing breakfast, wonderful staff. Gorgeous interior and lovely toiletries. I don’t think there can be a better breakfast spread or kinder staff anywhere. Insects of course are to be expected. But the noise we didn’t. We thought it would be a quiet restful experience in the countryside but every morning from 6am there was noise of tractors etc- ok still we just took it as a farm stay experience. But what we didn’t expect was on our second night a new group of guests decided to party into the wee hours of the night - we messaged the hotel staff, they tried to talk to the guests but it was futile as the staff are just too nice. So we probably got 3 hours of sleep. Esp since there’s zero sound proofing (it’s a tent). Oh and of course no blackout since it’s a tent. Just one more thing that we found surprising was that we were charged for our coffee and juice at breakfast - at no point were we informed and we were only given the bill at checkout. And because we were rushing (took 2 hours to prepare breakfast even though we had informed the day before what time we needed breakfast) we really didn’t have the time to discuss. So that was not a great way to end our stay on top of the sleepless night. I think the hotel should have at least waived the charges for beverages at least to make up for completely being ineffective in managing the noisy guests. So service recovery there was super poor - they were just extremely apologetic. Another last 2 things to bear in mind - there is no physical door separating the bathroom, and also because this is a very kind hotel all dogs and cats are free to roam the hotel. My daughter is scared of animals and also very sensitive to fur so she couldn’t even go to breakfast (but they were kind to let us bring her breakfast to the room). So that’s something else to note for anyone who has allergies etc. The dogs and cats have learnt how to open all the doors to the restaurant themselves so there’s no way to keep them out..

Exceptional. Wow what a stay!! This was such a cool accomodation. Really great proximity to Ephesus, although I would suggest it’s best if you have a car or have taxis organised as it’s a bit of a walk into town. The staff/family were so so friendly and helpful. And now onto the best part, the food! Hands down some of the best food we ate in Turkey, these guys can cook! Breakfast was insane, such a huge spread and dinner showcased the beautiful local ingredients. The domes were very cute and clean with comfy beds.. A little cold and damp in winter but that’s to be expected glamping! Just be wary if you’re not an animal person this farm has heaps of cats and dogs. But we love animals so it was ok for us :).

A place out of a movie set. Too good to be true. Not to be missed if you are in the area.. this place is awesome! Luxury brand new “tents” tastefully furnished sitting in a luscious orange garden, each with its own little pool, spa and private furnished patio. Very romantic and scenic. The owners are the most caring people ever and the breakfast they served was huge and lovely made with their own vegetables and homemade preserves. Super highly recommended.. Nothing! It is one of the best places I’ve ever encountered in my trips..

Great stay but we should have been told that the jacuzzi wasn't working :(. The place, the location, everything is just gorgeous. The staff are really friendly and the place has a lot of cute pets :) Food is really tasty and they had yummy vegetarian options too! Everything feels really fresh - the tomatoes were sweet and juicy.. We had booked the property primarily because we wanted to use the private jacuzzi - but when we got there we got to know that jacuzzi were not functional because of earthquake damage :( We could have booked somewhere else where jacuzzi WAS working :( Also the room had flies in it when we entered so that wasn't nice.

Garden of Eden in Selcuk. The location of this site, away from the hustle and bustle, gives it a feeling of serenity. The pods are well equipped for two people. Due to the intense heat of summer, we were advised to leave the air conditioning active all day. I encountered a real family feeling with the hosts; nothing was too much effort. They were happy to chat about a variety of subjects and offer suggestions about the local area. If you love animals, their collection of dogs and cats will be a welcome sight as they patrol the property. Breakfast and dinner are sized for those with big appetites and locally prepared.. I wasn't left wanting for anything. Just make sure you are prepared for evening mosquitoes if you plan on sitting outside and watching the sun set..

Superb. Absolutely phenomenal glamping experience!! Extremely friendly and helpful family run bnb!! We had the most mouthwatering breakfast spread brought to our balcony the bedroom was realy cosy and pleasant. It was nice and private. It had its own jacuzzi and pool even tho it was winter , in the summer time it would be real fun! The little terrain to get there was not the best however the route was worth it !! Would definitely stay here again in a heart beat 💓. I would suggest heated blankets to make it a much more comfier stay . It was absolutely freezin at night . The geyser switch is outside the room make sure to put it on unless you're a fan of cold showers !.
