Tas Otel, Izmir

Description: Tas Otel

Tas Otel is ideal for a quiet romantic escape vacation or a relaxing exotic holiday. Located in the Yeni Mecidiye district of Alaçati in Turkey, Tas Otel is a boutique hotel in a luxuriously renovated historic Greek stone mansion. Alaçati Bay, world renown windsurfing clubs and the beautiful sandy beaches of Ilica, Çark, Altin Kum (Golden Sand) are all within easy reach of Tas Otel as are the Alacati and Cesme marinas, Çesme castle and the fishermen's village of Dalyanköy.

With just 7 rooms and a private guest house, Tas Otel offers comfortable accommodation and personalized service. Enjoy the historic ambiance with modern comforts such as free Wi-Fi Internet throughout, a swimming pool, and a wide collection of classical jazz CDs (especially piano). Lounge by the fireplace with a glass of wine in the winter or by the pool in the summer with a specialty drink. The idyllic gardens feature a variety of trees, flowering vines and beds of aromatic herbs.

The open kitchen is like that of a traditional grandmother, always busy: Figs being peeled for making fig jam, olives picked from the garden put in oil and lemon juice, cakes baked for the afternoon tea, sugar and mint crushed in the mortar for making lemonade, villagers bringing fresh salads and eggs for omelets, gin and tonic with fresh basil leaves for pool loungers.
