Staff was very helpful. Great location for a family vacation. Plenty of local markets, bakery, restaurants and shops within walking distance. Authentic experience with the great Turkish hospitality and awesome food. Take a cab to the ferry and make your way to the historical center. Great day trip and then retreat to the villa.
I spent my days using the sauna and pool. BBQ at night outside. There is a local butcher shop down the street (also has great kabobs served upstairs). Plenty of outdoor markets for produce and the like.
Staff speaks no English so translate was used. They were very kind and helpful. On my first night they showed me where a little shop is to get things for the house.
I recommend 100%. Great for the family ( we had a 1 year old). Not a place to party late night, for that go to Taksim.
