Minta Apart Hotel

[cherian]

Can anyone tell me where the Minta is in Dalyan? We have booked to go there early September for 3 weeks.
Thanks

If you know where sevikoglu supermarket is, on the corner of the old Ortaca road, you go up there past the tourism school on the left, take the first main right turn, it is now signposted for Iztuzu beach, on the right hand side after about 100m is the Minta Apart. Very nice it is too.

Thank you Steve - you have given me some idea of where it is located. Cannot find it on Google Earth though. Is it near the MaviKosk and Ali Baba Otel do you know?

[Dalyansteve]

Yes, sort of in between.

Thanks Steve - we don't know this area. Went to Dalyan for the first time last May and loved it so much that we booked again for September. However, I got appendicitis and had to cancel the holiday. Fingers crossed for the 3 weeks we have booked for this September! We are going to Turgutries early May - trying it out for our son who is thinking of this resort for his main holiday later on in the year. Going to get the phrase book out today as we like to have a go at the language.

Although these are self catering aparts, you will find Ali and the family more than willing to provide food and drink at fairly reasonable prices and his weekly 3 course dinner is unmissable, you may feel a bit pressurised at first but you will soon get over it. They are just trying to make your holiday special, most of the guests are repeat customers.

I like your description of the Minta Steve - must be good if they have repeat business. Thanks for the warning though which hopefully won't be a problem. We couldn't believe the hospitality of the Turks when we first started to visit the country but soon began to realise it was genuine which is one of the reasons we visit Turkey each year. Started off visiting Bodrum in 1993 and were smitten straight away. Thanks for your replies - much appreciated.

Hello, I was just about to post asking the same question. we have just book some fairly reasonable flights for 12th May and found Minta apartments at a good price on alpharooms, but like op i couldnt find them anywhere. Still not sure I know where they are however, but what the hell..... who cares !! really excited now. we are staying at kiydan in september but wanted something a bit cheaper for may

Perhaps you could advise on your stay at the Minta on your return. For the location, put in Hotel Mavikosk on Google Earth and the Minta is adjacent to this hotel.
We are staying in Turgutreis for a week on 3rd May so shall just be returning to the UK when you take off for Dalyan. Have a great time.

I shall give you a full report on my return. really looking forward to it now. I went to Turgutreis but probably too long ago for my memories of the place to be relevant. it was more or less one street then.
