This is a spectacular place to stay. Mr. Evizi and his wife are also amazing hosts. The house us really very beautiful and unique with all the artwork by Mr. Evizi's wife. It's even better than the pictures and much prettier. The view from almost every window of the house is breathtaking with an amazing sea view overlooking the princes islands and surrounding green hills. The pool was clean and well maintained. the Penthouse became the Kid's special den (we had five kids with us) and didn't want to leave. There is plenty of room and plenty of sleeping place. There are many grocery stores and a carrefour that are less than 5 minutes away but you will need a car or ubering to move around. The place is right on the Sahil with many open spaces for kids to play and for having nice walks or runs on the sea side. Mr. Evizi lives in the lower floor with a separate entrance and so the place is private but also means we got very quick responses from Mr. Evizi when needed. The service provided was almost hotel-like, very clean and they provided towels, shampoos, detergents and some food and fruits for our first night. The Asian side has plenty of attractions for all tastes and preferences. I would highly recommend this place for anyone wanting to experience one of the most beautiful areas in Istanbul. Thank you Mr & Mrs Evizi for hosting us and we look forward to going back again.
