Went to Alacati on a bit of a whim but was very pleasantly surprised. Loads of tourists there, giving the place a vibe and atmosphere, but they were mostly Turkish rather than foreign. Hence Alacati has a shortage of tourist tat and street hustlers but plenty of interesting shops and authentic restaurants. The main drag is a 2 minute walk from the hotel.
The hotel was nicer than expected. The rooms are a good size, nicely furnished, well equipped, air conditioned and pretty quiet. There's a couple of free parking places outside (always at a premium in Alacati). The hotel staff are ever present and always happy to help. Breakfast is a real treat and different every day, featuring hand-made goodies and authentic flavours. If it had better coffee, it would be faultless...
