Eco Farm Boutique Hotel

This place feels like home. Fatih makes this place even more authentic. The view is amazing and its quite close to Turgutreis. The animals are super friendly :) Breakfast is very good and the rooms are super clean. Highly recommended! :)

Eco Farm is situated in a gorgeous landscape which is a complete contrast from the busy-ness of Bodrum town. The room was lovely, very comfortable and regularly cleaned. The pool was chilly, but in a great location, and if you love cats (we do), then there were plenty to give you a lot of attention. The opportunity to store some of our food in the fridge in the big kitchen and also cook or make tea was brilliant (though this is subject to the amount of guests and might not be available for everyone if it's high season). The big dining area was a lovely space to hang out in with other guests, though our private balcony meant we could sit and watch the stars on our own if we wanted to. Fatih is more than happy to arrange taxis and take-out which made communication really easy. He was always on hand if we had any questions and we never felt abandoned.

This is NOT a farm experience - there are distant chickens, that sometimes come to scratch around and say hello and a rather noisy cockerel, but it's more of an animal sanctuary for cats and dogs. The pool does not have a bar, it's not on a rooftop and there were no obvious picnic areas (other than the main covered dining space). None of this was a problem, but the listing description is a bit misleading. Fatih is a great guy, but is a one-man band and seemed a bit frazzled. We were also the first guests of the season so a few areas were not quite ready and looked a bit untidy. We had decided to go car free as we'd seen options to have evening meals - this was offered to us and the food was delicious, but the prices quoted afterwards were on the steep side. We should have checked with Fatih first as it could have been cheaper to get a taxi to and from Turgetreis and eat much cheaper in town. It did feel as though we were being taken advantage of and left a bit of a bitter taste.

The property is set in a stunning, peaceful location and the host could not have made us feel more welcome. A wonderful stay!

The farm is located in a very quiet area, within easy reach of central Bodrum and other tourist spots. It’s a hidden gem. The dogs and cats greeted me every morning. Fatih is a wonderful host, helped me with taxi and showed around 🙂‍↔️

Everything was perfect
