I had always wanted to take my two children (now 18 and 15) to a villa with its own pool. This villa could not have been better for that, giving us a peaceful and relaxing place to be just the 3 of us having something of a digital detox together at certain points in the holiday (especially the evenings in the pool). It also lent itself to venturing out further than Hisaronu to Olu Deniz and Fethiye – also lovely but what we were looking for really was a wonderful place to stay and relax together which is what we got. Debra the owner was extremely helpful in the run up to our holiday and also whilst we were there when questions popped up. It was great to arrive and be greeted with milk for tea, bread, butter, jam and beer. A perfect place to stay. Missing the sunset swims already!
The location was ideal for us with just a 10-15 minute walk to the strip of Hisarönü. Local shops were also nearby. Taxis from the strip were approx 15 Turkish lira which is approx £3. Location wise this suited us as we didn’t want to be in the middle of the hustle and bustle.
We pre booked transfers at the time of booking and again no faults with service.
We are seriously considering booking again next year as we thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
I would highly recommend this villa to everyone and want to thank Debra for making the booking so easy.
A wonderful enjoyable and fantastic experience! Thank you xx
Just wanted to say what an amazing time we had at the villa this month.
Our transfer was waiting for us at the airport. Very helpful driver. Handed us all ice cold bottles is water for the journey. Was even happy to stop at a supermarket for us to pick up a few bits.
On arrival at the villa we were all very impressed. Everywhere was clean and fresh. There was a loaf of bread in the kitchen along with some milk in the fridge. Extras like dishwasher tablets and washing powder were also available. A nice big water dispenser was also a welcome sight.
After looking round all the rooms we ventured outside to the lovely pool area. Again everywhere was very clean. Even had a collection of inflatables left from other guests to use. Sun loungers were comfortable.
The villa is really central with a cab button literally 2 mins away and a we’ll know hotel about 30 seconds away so getting picked up or dropped off by taxis was easy.
Hisaronu was only a 5 minute cab ride away costing a total of £2! If you wanted to go down to Olu Deniz then it was a massive £3.
All in all we had an amazing time and couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Thank you
Such a lovely villa and the location is perfect – just a short taxi drive to the beach or a 10 minute walk down into Hisarönü.
Everything you need is within walking distance and the villa itself has everything you would need – a home away from home!
Seeing the amazing sunset every evening was definitely an added bonus!

Just got back from a week in this wonderful villa. Debra and Mark was very helpful on booking this villa and nothing was too much trouble. My daughter and I was met at the airport and taken to the villa in a luxury car, the driver took us to the front door ensuring we was safely in the villa. The villa was immaculately clean and very modern. It was like home from home. I look forward to returning again soon.
Absolutely highly recommend this villa, Well what can I say? The owners of the villa Debra & Mark were fantastic gave us plenty of information before our stay. Transfer was waiting for us at the airport very friendly driver couldn’t do enough for us, asked if we needed to stop anywhere to pick up anything, when we arrived I couldn’t get over the beautiful views from the villa, The villa itself was so spacious plenty of room for 6 people. Very clean & spotless lovely decor. Beds were very comfortable plenty of towels as well.
The pool area was lovely plenty of room, The location is stunning walking distance to shops & restaurants if you fancy staying in there are plenty of takeaway menus in the villa, Hisaronu town is a 15 minute walk or a taxi is 15 TL. Fantastic restaurant & shops very cheap to eat out. Ölüdeniz is the nearest beach 10 minute taxi ride. We spent a lot of time in the villa just amazing we can’t wait to go again!

Well what can I say, just got home from a two week stay in this amazing villa. Location was perfect for us, not too close to the busy town but a nice walking distance. Was met at the airport by a very friendly driver who greeted us with not only a big smile but a nice cold bottle of water. There was a welcome pack of essentials which was a lovely touch. The villa was clean homely and spacious with amazing views. There was lots of information and recommendations which helped us enjoy our amazing holiday. The owners where only too pleased to answer any questions we had nothing was too much trouble.
What can I say , what a lovely villa in a picturesque location only 10 minutes walk from town , the villa has everything you need and more , the pool area is bathed in sunshine all day and there was 6 adults but plenty of room for us all , if your looking for a great value place to stay in a great location then this is it , Debra and Mark have catered for your every need , was sad to come home ……5 star plus I would say

My partner and I chose to stay at this villa for its lovely interior, private pool and quiet location. We were after a relaxing break and the villa was perfect for this.
We pre-booked the private transfer from the airport which I would definitely recommend. As soon as we collected our luggage and left the airport, the driver was waiting for us and gave us an ice cold bottle of water for the journey which was just what we needed for the journey ahead. The private transfer vehicle itself was very spacious and had comfortable leather seats which made the journey nice and smooth.
When we arrived at the villa, we were welcomed with a fresh loaf of bread, milk, jam, butter and even cold beers which was a lovely extra touch we weren’t expecting.
The villa itself is also beautifully decorated, clean and has a lovely modern exterior and interrior feel. Whilst there was only 2 of us and the villa can sleep 6, the villa is very spacious and you wouldn’t ever feel too crowded. The pool was also a nice size and was lovely knowing that we had it all to ourselves! We didn’t check out the communal pool as felt the private pool was more than enough for us.
We spent most of our evenings in hisaronu and enjoyed the 20-25 minute walk down to the town from the villa especially after having spent all day round the pool. We also spent a couple of nights at the villa itself chilling on the outside terrace furniture with a few drinks. We had lovely meals at bees knees, Chinese rose, mamma Mia as well as also ordering in a takeaway from chill out bar.
Whilst we were there we booked the 12 island boat excursion through activities unlimited located in hisaronu. There are a lot of kiosks selling excursions but we felt most comfortable using the management company for the villa. I would also recommend the 12 island boat trip.we had such a relaxing day as there were sun loungers on the top deck for chilling and you could also go in the sea at any of the stops if you wanted to.
We also visited the new 1700 babadag bar and grill up the babadag mountain and had an amazing dinner with breathtaking views. We booked everything all via Facebook and our sunset dinner package also included a pick up and drop off service from the destina hotel which is 30 seconds from the villa.
All in all we had a lovely and relaxing break at the villa and would definitely return. The villa is in my opinion the perfect location from being enough distance away from hisaronu allowing you to have a peaceful and relaxing day round the pool and then evening meal and nightlife at hisaronu. The owners Mark and Debbie were also very helpful with the booking side of things which made life that little bit easier.

Cherry on top of a great holiday
My family and I have just returned from a wonderful holiday during which we stayed at Villa Hayat-Dema. The villa it’s self is fantastic, walking distance from all necessary amenities (and more) but still away from any busyness so very peaceful. The interior is spacious, clean and light but still cozy, we very easily felt at home. Plus we had everything we needed, cooking equipment, towels, iron, washing machine, comfy beds, air con etc, there is even a collection of books and DVDs to choose from. My oldest children really enjoyed the private pool but there is also communal pools right next to the villa, one of which was smaller & shallower, perfect for my two youngest (2 & 3 years old). I should also point out that whilst these are communal pools they were never overcrowded, in fact, there was nobody else using them besides us while we were there (this may not always be the case). Lastly, the views of the Turkish sunset from the poolside & balconies were just breathtaking!
Overall the villa was perfect for us and we would definitely return for that alone but what truly made our holiday better & stress free was how helpful Debra (the owner) was. Always promt replies to any queries we had, handled transfer to and from the airport, we had a real sense of being looked after and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

Accommodation/Villa – The villa was very clean, modern, bright and airy and had everything we needed. There were plenty of towels etc and the beds were comfortable. It was spacious enough for us and there was plenty of storage. The outside area was perfect, plenty of sunbeds and lovely cushions for them which made them really comfortable. The veranda was great and offered plenty of seating and shade. The pool is also a good size and the communal pool was definitely an added bonus which was bigger than the villa pool so offers good size for ‘swimming’. For the whole time we were there we never saw anyone else at the communal pool so we had this to ourselves as well. The views from the villa were stunning and we would watch the paragliders over the mountains throughout the day. Although the villa is in a built up area it was exceptionally quiet, which was ideal for us.
Local area – The villa is within a 5 -10 min walk from some restaurants and a shop. The walk is going downhill on the way and it is quiet steep on the way back. The found the closest restaurant we found in walking distance was Mountain Valley. Throughout the 2 weeks we tried breakfast, lunch and dinner there and was never disappointed. The staff and food was very good and probably the best full English breakfast we found. We also went and watched the football there one day and they turned on a big screen for us to improve our viewing. The Chillout Restaurant was also good but was a little further to walk. There is an Azda that is 10 minute walk so we would get a taxi back which was only around £3.
Excursions – We wenton the 12 island all day boat trip, which was well worth the money of £15 per person. This included pick up and drop off from the villa, the boat trip stopped at 4 stops where you could jump off the boat and swim/snorkel etc and also a good lunch of fish/chicken, pasta, salad and a roll. The other trip we went on was quad biking, this was really good fun and very challenging! We got very dirty and wet! We got a taxi to the water park for £4 and then the entrance was £10 per person, which was really good value. The only downside was there were a few rides that you needed an inflatable ring which there was not enough of and people hung onto them rather than giving someone else their turn. However, for £10 we had a great time.
Restaurants – We often got a taxi in to HIsaronu and Oludeniz which was only £3/4 each way, including the tip. Plenty of choice in Hisaronu but Oludeniz offered a better class of restaurant in our opinion. The Sey Lounge and Buzz Bar in particular with their beach front location never failed to disappoint us. If you are looking for something special then definitely you need to go to Yakamoz Hotel and Restaurant, who will come and pick you up and take you back to the villa for free. It is very close to the waterpark. The other restaurant that will not disappoint is Pinehills, again food is excellent but you have got to book as it is very popular.
Take away – We got a delivery to the villa from two different places and by far the best one was Bazlamaistasyonu. We had toasted sandwiches which were more like a calzone (Bazlama Atom and Station Mix) and the kids had the chocolate waffles.
We had an amazing 2 weeks that we were really not ready to come home from. The villa was the perfect base for us and we felt very at home there and Debbie made the whole process of booking etc extremely straight forward and also checked in with us during our holiday to make sure we were ok. We would definitely book this villa again.

Just home from a wonderful week at the villa. The villa is gorgeous and has all amenities you’ll need. The local shop is a 5-10 min walk away and are really helpful and even offer a whatsapp order and delivery service which was great. Its lovely and quiet at the villa, but if you like a bit of a night life and bar/restraunt the town is a short 5 min taxi ride. The beach is a 10 min taxi ride and is more of a pebbled beach, we chose not to have a day there, but is gorgeous in eve. Mark and Debbie are really helpful too, and the airport transfers were brilliant. Would def recommend.
