We went to Selimiye, Marmaris for a weekend getaway. A friend of ours, who is a local, recommended Swan Lake to us. He concluded his recommendation by saying the breakfast at the hotel was probably the best breakfast he had ever enjoyed. Coming from a man who travels the world for food, it was a mighty comment that had us wondering. How special can a breakfast be? We arrived on a Thursday evening to be greeted by our host. Mr. Muzaffer is among the kindest and politest of hosts and humans you will ever meet. After giving us a quick glimpse of the premises, he took us to our room. Being a modernist myself, maybe the decor was not exactly to my liking but the room spelled out comfort and hospitality. The view was amazing, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom very specious. The room we stayed in was named Bedri Rahmi after a very famous Turkish artist. Stay in this room with this view and you will feel an urge to create. I, for one, could not help but write…. This being a December weekend, we experienced rain, thunder, sunshine and rainbows . It is a shame that most people limit their Marmaris trips to July and August when it is the hottest and most over crowded time of the year. If you are able to, visit south of Turkey in fall or early winter. It is sophisticatedly romantic. Long behold, our first morning came and with suspicious curiosity we went to have breakfast. It was a carefully curated medley of the most delicately tasteful turkish olives, cheeses, tomato pates, and home made jams topped with various other sweet and sour delights. It is a breakfast that takes a certain level of culinary taste and experience to put together. Needless to say we were elated and over joyed by the tastes we got to enjoy. The 3 nights and 3 breakfasts we enjoyed at Swan Lake came and went too quickly. I cannot wait to go back in Spring and enjoy some more of that view, hospitality and food.
