What a view ! Visited the soothe hotel for lunch as we are staying at nearby Kulube. What a fantastic view and the pool was enormous. Sooo quiet just one couple in the pool ans then another by the time we finished a long lunch. Couple beers some water a chicken burger and tuna salad with chips approx £23 extremely good value ! Manager kindly showed us around . Stunning views form the room and breakfast area. Lovely laid back vibe.

In addition to the hot water faucet in the room I live in, there is a problem (the shower head of the direct hot water heater is gone, the shower that centrally supplies hot water in the wall is not hot for 20 minutes, I want to twist it down and receive the direct hot type without a wrench. I don’t know if other rooms are like this. Finally, I can use my palms to splash water on the hot water exit of the direct-heat electric water heater. There is nothing wrong with the others. Breakfast in the morning tastes good and the scenery on the beach is good, so check the hot water before check-in. I can't ask for a room change immediately to avoid stepping on the pit.

My first experience in hamam was quite interesting, relaxing, and satisfying. First of all, I applaud the amiability of the hosts who introduced me to the concept and were kind to guide me through the leaflet. I chose an Aroma Therapy Package which consisted of hamam part, whole body massage with oils I selected, a clay mask, and finally the hair treatment. I might be lucky since the season hasn't started and it was quite peaceful and relaxed all the while I was there. Inside of the Turkish bath, I got scrubbed and cleaned with soap, my hair was washed too, and after that part was done, I got a short but long enough toilet break and snack break (fruits and juice was provided). The next part took place in the massage room where I got my full body aromatherapy massage, my face mask and hair oil applied. I was provided with all the things I needed to get from one room to the other, I had my key with me, and the lady who bathed me and gave me a massage took care that I don't lose it out of sight. As of recently it's possible to pay by card. The place is clean and smells great and the hosts and staff are really pleasant to interact and work with 😊

If you are searching for serenity and just want to chill and relax, then Likya Gardens Hotel is the best place for you. Both as a couple and solo. My priorities when searching for a hotell was that it should be quite and calm so I could just rest and get positive energy. Lucky me I found Likya Gardens. First time in both Kalkan and Likya Gardens. And I can say that it was more than I imagined. A place where you can rest both your mind and body. I booked the terrace suit and WOW you can see whole Kalkan from your terrace, which is amazing! It has a jacuzzi which was very very pleasant, both in the day and at the evening. I took a bath in the night under the stars and that was a wonderful experience. The hotell is a walk away from the city, approx 15 min. But with taxi it only takes 5 min. The sea is clear and just amazing. You can just sit and enjoy a good book next to the sea and listen to the waves or take a wonderful swim. The cleaning of the rooms are superb! Everything is very clean. The breakfast and lunch are served in the beach club right at the beach. The breakfast is a buffe breakfast and has everything you need! It’s very fresh and tastes delicious. They also serve you omelett or menemen.. my favorite. Had the chance to try their lunch a few times and it is amazing too. The staff are amazing! Thanks to Can, Burak, Hasan, Kaan, Ugur the chef and cleaning abla. But the shining stars are Can who was very helpful, Emir who always smiles his biggest and makes your day and last but not least the sweet cat Melo..

We’ve stayed at The Likya on many occasions over the years and have commented previously that the place needed significant investment. Whilst there have been some changes since 2022 season, unfortunately they haven’t invested in the things that would have the most impact on the guests. There are three fantastic things about The Likya. The staff, who are second to none - particularly Muhammet’s team* on food and beverages and the receptionist - the food and the view. *A special shout out for Ummut, Hatice and Ozzie, who cannot do enough for you. The fabric of the building however, and general air of neglect, is becoming a major issue for people staying there and was a frequent source of discussion in the pool (when you really don’t have a great deal to talk about!) The changes made since last year are to improve the reception area, improve the breakfast area - and this actually is much better - and to replace the sun loungers, which were falling apart. Unfortunately the new ones are very flimsy and unlikely to last long. They have done nothing at all to the bedrooms, which have yet to see a lick of paint since our first visit in 2010. The gardens are overgrown and plant containers have dead and untended plants in them, clearly never being watered. What happened to the gardener? There is a general air of neglect about the pool area and parasols have been patched up on many occasions and look very sorry for themselves. I suspect that while the owner has handed over day-to-day management of the hotel to the previous manager, who is doing her best, there is insufficient funding available to actually do what needs to be done to get the hotel back to being a special place to stay in Kalkan. A last point, which has nothing to do with the state of the hotel: they really need to use plastic (or other non-breakable) glasses and crockery when people are having drinks at their sunloungers. Twice we witnessed cups and glasses being broken - people walk around barefoot and this is very dangerous. I doubt that we will return to The Likya, although we will go back to Kalkan. This is very sad because the staff are amazing, but it has fallen way behind on standards.
