Enda Boutique Hotel Kalkan

We had nine nights at the Enda hotel and it was one of the best hotels we have stayed at in kalkan. The owners were very welcoming. We always enjoyed a chat with Samet at reception desk. There was no secret "hatch " as previously mentioned, their living quaters were to the side of reception and the door was done in the same design as the walls. Yes the hotel rooms were on the smaller side , but they were spotlessly clean and more than adequate and perfectly suitable for what was required. We moved to a sea facing room and we did pay the upgrade, which we were more than happy to do. The room was not any larger but the view was fabulous. There is enough room for 2 persons to sit on the balcony , a folding table is provided, very ingeneous!.Breakfast was superb a traditional turkish breakfast which was huge, and every day there was a new dish or two added to keep up the variety. Coffee was very good and plentiful, the only thing missing was fruit juice. The hotel is only 10 min walk from the harbour and 7 mins from centre of town, but like all of kalkan it is uphill, our fitness level certainly improved . Enda (the dog) was a big softie and always liked a bit of a fuss. When it was time to leave we were waved off by Samet , which is the norm (certainly wherever we have stayed in kalkan ) and we feel it is a nice touch, . When in kalkan again we would stay at The Enda again and we certainly would recommend anyone to stay there, if you want to experience a small family run hotel , where they care about their guests comfort and service is certainly with a smile.!!!

We were the only people staying in the hotel, the owner tried to get us to go and see another hotel that he was thinking of buying near Istanbul - we declined, the owners then disappeared for several days and left the hotel to be run by three young interns - this was the best part of out holiday. they looked after us brilliantly and made sure that we were comfortable, they made us a beautiful breakfast every morning and they ran reception and kept the hotel spotless. When the owners returned they only spoke to us to greet us in the morning and that was literally it, even when they returned, we did not see them do any work around the hotel, the interns were still doing everything as far as we could see and they seemed to be working extremely long hours, we didn't see any of them get a day off in the nine days that we were there. Our room was very small and claustrophobic, the bathroom was tiny and we have to get into the shower sideways to navigate the sink, the balcony was small and only had two chairs and no table, we had to sit with our knees touching, there were other rooms at the end of our corridor which were bigger and had a fridge, I would have though that as we were the only people there the owners would have maybe moved us but no, we were left in out teeny room for nine night trying not to trip each other up and taking turns to sit outside! On the night that we left the owner appeared from behind a panel in the wall in the reception area and followed us to the taxi, the interns carried our cases, we carried our own rucksacks and he watched us then waved us off - it felt like he couldn't wait to get rid of us. The hotel itself is in a good spot, it's two streets above the old town and an easy walk from the newer parts of Kalkan, it's such a shame that we didn't feel welcomed by the owners but a HUGE thank you to the interns who were the best thing about our stay (and Enda the dog who spent her time with us while the owners were away).

We were staying in Turkey for two weeks and travelled to this boutique hotel for a one night experience in Kalkan. The room was clean the staff were efficient and polite and the owners were fab and we loved their pet dog. The views from this hotel are amazing day or night it’s only a short walk to the shops and restaurants and the breakfast was a traditional Turkish breakfast with plenty of everything we will definitely return but for a few nights next time.

Excellent little Hotel in Kalkan with superb views. We stayed for 2 nights and honestly wished we could have stayed longer. Great location minutes away to visit the lovely shops and restaurants. The Hotel is extremely clean with great breakfast to start the day. The owners Hakan & Ayse are so friendly and welcoming and a special mention to Batuhan and Onur starting off there new careers in the Hotel who did a great job for all our needs.

Just returned from a 14 night break at this lovely hotel. We can fully endorse all of the previous good reviews. The hotel owners were friendly, kind and gracious and Enda the dog made us feel welcome too. The location is great for access to the town and local shops and doesn't require vertical walks up difficult paths, like some hotels and villas We heartily recommend this hotel as the ideal place to stay in Kalkan and cannot thank the hotel owners enough for their hospitality.

We chose Enda hotel for our 10 night stay in Kalkan. We loved this hotel. It's conveniently located for the centre of town but just slightly outside so it's much quieter. This means you're not in all the hustle and bustle so get a great night's sleep. The views from the hotel are amazing looking out over the Kalan Bay. The pool is great, air conditioning fab, the breakfast amazing, the bed fabulous and the owners are fantastic hosts. They can't do enough to help. It surprises me that other reviewers marked the hotel down because the air con is off while they're out. In our world of high energy prices and threats to the environment I would think this is a good thing! I wouldn't hesitate to book Enda hotel again for our next stay in Kalkan . All and family, thank you so much for your hospitality and looking after us. Phil & Melanie x

A wonderful, very friendly, hotel on the edge of old Kalkan. Everything about our seven night stay could not have been beaten. Lovely room with a sea view balcony (room 117). Good air conditioning. Perfect for those beautiful Turkish sunsets. Overlooking the pool and spa pool. Breakfast was served on the pool side. A meal that was enough to miss lunch. It was a table full of wonderful Turkish delicacies. The owners and staff were so helpful, in all ways. Nearly forget, I must mention the guard on the door. A four legged guard with the name Enda. Such a friendly, laid back, canine that it was impossible not to fall in love with her. It is good that this hotel kept going through the Covid crisis. Financially it must have been a nightmare. However, its up and running again. When finances are better may I make a slight suggestion of mini-safes in the room to hold passports, credit cards and money. Turkey is renowned for poor WiFi and Enda Boutique Hotel is a little lacking too there. Didn’t bother us too much but there are some tourists that need it badly. Anyway, thank you for a fabulous seven nights and for looking after us on the late night flight home. See you again.

Lovely hotel close enough to centre of town to be peaceful at night time but easy walking distance into town. The rooms are lovely. Breakfast is amazing, you get so much you don't need lunch if you can finish it all and each day there is a different main to it. A lovely family run hotel with the nicest rottweiler dog call Enda! We have stopped here a few times now and this is definitely somewhere recommend stay. The pool is big enough for what you need on holiday and very clean. There is a roof terrace for evening drinks which has a fantastic viewpoint over Kalkan bay. There are many new places to stop in Kalan but this hotel is definitely worth checking out over the others.
