Tuna is a different kind of host who truly puts a lot of effort into her guests. There are few genuine people left in this world and she is one of them. She always had a smile and was always offering to help with everything. Her kids and husband were also wonderful and helpful at all times. Her son Luca especially gave company to my son and played with him everyday. There are no words for Tuna's genuine kindness and caring hospitality. She is truly a one of a kind host. The house is very spacious and the kitchen was well equipped. If we ever needed anything Tuna provided it immediately. The garden is very lush and green and quite huge and we were using all of it. They had fig and plum trees that we enjoyed thoroughly. the location is superb; it's walking distance to 2 metro stations. it is surrounded by shops to buy pretty much anything. The park is very very close and is truly one of the most beautiful and biggest parks in Istanbul. It has a cafeteria and 2 restaurants with breathtaking views of the Marmara sea, Princess Islands and the European side of Istanbul (Sultanahmet). Everything was wonderful and we are already planning our next stay at Tuna's place!
