What a view!
Lovely friendly B&B. Had the place to ourselves and the view was amazing and the town was beautiful. Had a great breakfast the next morning too watching the birds and having a good chat with the owners.

Busier than pictures suggest but not bad value
Very judicious photography. The hotel is actually on the corner of one of the main routes down to the beach so we often found ourselves sunbathing by the pool with solid traffic honking horns just metres away. Could still chill out there though and the pool bar is very handy. Room was a little small for families but we weren't in it that often. Breakfast was good: plenty to choose from and a nice relaxed self-service system. Fairly well-equipped gym, pool and table tennis. Overall, not bad value for Olüdeniz (but we also found Olüdeniz to be a bit more Benidorm-y than the standard 'blue lagoon' photos suggest).

We had a lovely stay.
Colin and Lisa are amazing hosts: welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable about the local area The B&B is spotlessly clean, the room a nice size, with tea, coffee, milk, sugar (topped up daily) with cups, glasses, kettle, hair dryer, and TV also available. The bathroom/shower is lovely, the bed spacious and comfortable, and the room overlooks beautiful scenery. You book ahead for breakfast: the English breakfast was amazing, and there are cereals, yoghurts, fruit and various juices also available - as well as tea and Coffee. Prticular tastes and preferences are catered for, and the breakfast is freshly cooked and to your requested individual requirements. We are looking forward to staying there again.

Immaculate and spacious, + great hosts
Really great stay. We arrived to a warm welcome, including a bed and water bowl for our dog who we'd prearranged would be staying. The room was spacious and immaculately clean, nicely decorated, and had all the things you'd need plus a lovely view from the window. The shower was absolutely fabulous!!! Breakfast was delicious and we appreciate the fresh fruit and yoghurt option. Terrible weather while we were there and the hosts were so thoughtful, giving us additional suggestions/solutions. However we did end up spending a lot of unplanned time in the room, which because it was so nice, was not a problem at all. If we visit the area again this would be our first pick for accommodations.
