We've loved our stay in Sardor's Villa and enjoyed every second of it. The house view of the river and amenities are great, Saeed and his family (House keeper) are great and helpful people who help and clean the villa if you stay long though they don't speak English at all have your dictionary with you. The bathroom door locked on my Mom and she was in it for more than 3 hours till Saeed could break the door so some doors definitely needs update. The pictures on the website are for two sister villas so don't expect to see all pics locations in your villa. Have bug spray and ant killer sprays with you since you probably prefer to get bitten and enjoy the view on the roof. We recommend this villa to whoever wants to stay in Istanbul and stay at home mostly. Have Saeed phone number always with you for taxi drivers since they never find the Villa!
