Our stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by impeccable cleanliness and the warm, inviting atmosphere. Hosts were very kind, the bungalow was comfortable, making us feel right at home. The garden was a true oasis – so peaceful and well-maintained. Pool is perfect for relaxing. Breakfasts were delicious with such a lovely variety – it was the perfect way to start our days. Dear Gaya, Erol, thank you for your attention to details and for making our stay so special. We left feeling refreshed.

A charming mini-bungalow park with extremely hospitable, intelligent hosts. And going beyond, they also helped us to recover our luggage lost by the airline. All the cottages are cozy and wonderfully equipped, hidden from the eyes of other guests by an a nice garden. The pool and its territory are simply a paradise in the heat. It was still quite cool at night, the air conditioner was not needed. The breakfasts are varied and very tasty, the table setting is amazing. The lodge, as well as everything else, is tastefully equipped; the hosts travel a lot around the world, and the interior is decorated with many ethnic art pieces brought from their trips. The coast, beaches, restaurants and shops are within walking distance. In general, the only thing we regret is that we spent only two days there. Thank you the hosts! We hope to see you again.

Beautiful setting, great breakfast, lovely hosts. The hotel is close to the village and the beach (10 minutes by bike) and very quiet, surrounded by the mountains

Very nice couple is leading the lodge hotel. Everything is done with a high attention to details and a huge care about guests. Every breakfast was like an art piece, not similar to previous one. The territory is huge with a lovely and very maintained garten with lemon, banana and pomegranate trees and swimming pool.

No issues!

This was more than a hotel as our lovely hosts made us feel so welcome in their home! The gardens in and around the bungalows were magnificent and everything was so green and lush.. it was amazing. Walking out of our bungalow and to the pool felt like we were in the jungle with the mountainous backdrop. The pool area is gorgeous and surrounded by trees and mountains. We had bikes to get to the beach (about 5 mins) or short drive. Loved our stay so much!

Nothing - everything was fabulous!!

Gaye and Erol's place is absolutely wonderful - it was recommended to us by friends and we absolutely loved it! The room was very comfortable - we slept so well and every morning had an incredibly abundant and delicious breakfast, then sat by the swimming pool. The view of the mountains from here is stunning - it was the perfect haven to decompress at the start of our holiday. We love Cirali and have visited many times - and Erol gave us great recommendations of new places to visit. Plus we used the hotel's bikes to cycle everywhere which is the best way to explore the area. Thank you to everyone at Portalimo Lodge for such a special time - it was so lovely to meet you and you are the most brilliant hosts!! We hope to see you again before very long.

Nothing! Cirali is VERY hot in August but cabins have AC!

Beautiful unique property! We first arrived and were a little put off as it seemed like camp. After 15 minutes we LOVED it! Owners couldn’t be nicer! Fantastic home made breakfast, loved hearing the birds and chickens. My 15 and 17 year old girls loved it as well! Swam in pool after beach every day! Wish we could’ve stayed longer than 5 nights! Cirali is a very cute town 3 min car ride away! Cant wait to return!

Everything. The all setting is so beautiful, with greenery all around. The pool area is absolutely stunning, and there’s a lot of cute corners full of details around the property. The breakfast is amazing, freshly made, and with plenty of options and variety. The hosts and the chef were very kind and seem to be always available. The location is very convenient, just a 5 minute drive from the beach, but you can also use one of the several bikes the property has available for free.

The bicycles need some maintenance :))

It's an amazing place in a beautiful location between mountains, we've come back for the second time already. The hosts, Gaye and Erol are super nice and helpful. The whole territory is green and comfortable, everywhere is clean and breakfasts are really good! The place is a bit far from the beach and we used bicycles, takes 5-7 minutes or 25-30 min by walk.

Portalimo Lodge is the perfect place to stay in Çirali. Everything was perfect. We loved the warmth and friendliness of the hosts Gaye and Erol, who were so kind and helpful. The Turkish breakfasts were so fresh and tasty. The room had everything we needed, including a powerful shower. We loved taking the bikes and cycling 5 minutes down to the main street and the beach before cycling back and crashing by the pool. We will definitely be back!

I can't think of anything.

Breakfast was fresh, varied and plentiful. Excellent value for money. Location was a little far out for us but Erol was more than happy to drive us into the village and collect us. Gaye, Erol and their staff work very hard at keeping guests happy. Little touches such as home made Lemonade and cakes were lovely. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

Lush and green with fruit trees and plenty of happy chickens, it’s a peaceful oasis close to the beach. The hosts and chef couldn’t be nicer people. The pool is great and the food is delicious too.

Nothing

We loved everything. The setting, and the pool, were so beautiful we didn't want to leave. We loved the breakfasts, the dinners, our little cabin, the honesty bar and, most of all, Errol, Gail and their colleagues who make it all so special. As a former travel journalist, I've stayed in luxury hotels all round the world, but I think this is one of absolute favourites. It's not luxurious, but it has everything you need and Gail and Errol and the wonderful cook (whose name I don't know how to spell) couldn't have been kinder. I'm recommending it to all my friends and will definitely be back.

Incredible mind blowing setting. Fantastic friendly hosts who have poured so much love into this property. Delicious turkish breakfast with lots of variety. Location was the perfect distance to the town. It's a great 6 min bike ride. Out of the hundreds of properties I've stayed out around the world this might be one of my favorites. We hope to return someday. Magical. Absolutely loved it.
