Home description
Very nice ground floor apartment in an area that Turkish and other nationalities live side by side. Relaxing environment with 3 balconies where you can sit and watch the slow pace of life in Akyaka. The layout makes Melis's Place an ideal choice for families or friends holidaying together. The wide sandy beach with its constant cooling breeze and within walking distance of all our accommodation is ideal for children as it is shallow for some way out
The bedrooms and bathroom are a good size, the sitting room large and the balconies spacious enough to ensure there is ample room for all. Very friendly Turkish neighbours. Ceiling fan in living room.

The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Akyaka is one of the most beautiful villages you can sea on the Turkish Turquoise Coast situated right at the tip of magnificent Gokova Bay, on the road between Mugla and Marmaris. Make sure to stop over either to stay a few days, to experience the calm beauty of the pine forests and clean Mediterranean Sea or even a few hours to restaurants on the outskirts by the clear Azmak River, observing ducks and geese which live there year around. You won't regret it
Akyaka area
In July and August the village is buzzing with many Turks taking up residence and the beaches are busier. Out of the high season months the village is quieter.
The village has numerous food shops and a village bakery which bakes not only delicious bread but also sizzling pide" bread topped with meat and cheese. A permanent fruit and vegetable market ensures you have the best choice of locally grown fruit. There is an excellent choice of restaurants ranging from specialist kebab makers and family run restaurants to the slightly more sophisticated riverside restaurants where fresh water trout is offered alongside a selection of delicious bream, bass and mullet.
The wide sandy beach with its constant cooling breeze and within walking distance of all our accommodation is ideal for children as it is shallow for some way out.
The number of inhabitants in the winter is approximatly 1500 and in the summer it almost doubles. Its delightful position at the end of the Gökova gulf, bordered in the north by the almost 1000m high Sakartepe, in the south by the wetlands of the Gökova plain ("heaven's plain") with it's multitude of species, particularly water birds, takes the visitor into it's spell.
Activities include: Biking Kite Surf Wind Surf Canyoning Rafting Rock Climbing Horse Riding Sea Kayak Tennis Fantastic restaurants nearby including our favourites: Idyma Restaurant and Cennet Restaurant (Great fresh fish)
