We had an amazing family holiday at Baykus villa. Rod and Hilary were great hosts helping to organise airport transfers and always dealing with any questions very swiftly. The villa was was spotlessly clean and well fitted out with everything we needed. Great to have bikes to be able to go into town and explore Dalyan. Great location, great villa, great hosts!

It is a lovely, well equipped villa and Dalyan is a beautiful location. When we arrived there were sewer flies in the basement room and we told the owner and he said to use fly spray. Signs around the villa say it is fine to flush toilet paper so we did. A couple of days in the septic tank alarm went off and the Kournos man came and cleared a block and we were told not to flush toilet paper. The next night water started entering the basement bedroom through the floor. We called Kournos again the next morning and they said it was where the septic tank had tried to flush the blockage with water and it had entered the soil, it was now seeping through cracks in the floor. Kournos were not very friendly seemed to blame us what happened. They said to use towels from the villa to soak up the water and told us that the water was safe. They didn’t change the towels for the whole 2 weeks we were there and we had to keep drying them and then putting them back to soak up more water. The water finally stopped coming through the day before we left. Also the rug in the living room was pretty filthy and could use a good clean. Apart from that the villa was lovely and we all loved the pool. All 5 of us slept in the basement bedroom as it was too hot upstairs. Dalyan is a fantastic location and I would return there.

Everything was as described and more. We have stayed in many villas in Dalyan and this was by far the best equipped. It was great to have the bikes to use. Pool had the sun all day and there was a breeze. We had an issue with the septic tank warning alarm but that was rectified by the management company within the hour. We would stay again and recommend to anyone.

We thoroughly recommend this villa which was exactly as described and very comfortable for our stay in Dalyan. It is obviously a much loved and well looked after family home. Rod and Hilary are very easy to communicate with, responding very quickly to any enquiry, and the local agent, Kaunos is also very helpful. It was the picture of the pool and garden that caught my eye and these certainly lived up to expectations. We each had our favourite spot to sit in and the sun loungers were very comfortable! The villa is really well equipped with inflatables, games, books, dvds etc and the all important air conditioning works well. The downstairs bedroom is a really large space that seems to stay cool by itself, even on the hottest days. I liked the area of town we were in and we could reach the lovely river path very easily. In the heat it took us about 15-20mins to walk the other way down to the centre of town, but it is only about 5-10mins walk to where the shops and restaurants start. The very nearest restaurant is in Fatih Aparthotel. We went here several times for lunch and would recommend it. Dalyan is one of the best resorts I have ever been to in terms of the amount of things to do using public transport/trips. We really enjoyed the Kaunos night safari and seeing the stars from the total darkness of the mountains was a real experience. If the weather had been cooler we would have done more so we hope to return again soon! Thank you so much Rod and Hilary!
