4Reasons Hotel + Bistro | 12+

We were due to stay at a relative’s home, but after the first night, we decided to find a hotel as the air conditioning wasn’t working. When we visited The 4 Reasons, we were shown around by the manager, Tamer, who kindly offered us breakfast. It was such a lovely gesture that we didn’t even want to look at any other hotels — we were happy to confirm our reservation straight away. The hotel was just incredible — so relaxing and tranquil. The staff were exceptional and truly do the hotel proud. Our room (Passionate) was spacious, with gorgeous bathroom products that smelled amazing. The only downside was the lack of drawers — there was only hanging space, so we had to keep our folded clothes out in the open. But this wasn’t a big issue as there was plenty of room overall. Breakfast was lovely — eaten outdoors with a beautiful view each morning, with a choice of fruit, cereal, yoghurt, and eggs. The team also makes fresh fruit smoothies for a small charge, and they’re delicious! The lunch and evening menus were also great. I’m vegetarian, and the staff were happy to make small adaptations for me. The pool area was wonderfully peaceful — we could never quite figure out where everyone went during the day, but we were more than happy to enjoy the calm and quiet! My husband had undergone surgery before our trip and needed to ice his knee. The team couldn’t have been more helpful or empathetic — they kept his ice packs in the restaurant freezer and were always happy to get them for him. Special shout-out to Abdu, whose service was unbeatable — he’s a real star! The rest of the staff were also fantastic, but Abdu really went above and beyond. We had a car, which mostly stayed parked during the day but came in handy for dinners and short trips. We were told that taxis don’t usually wait and can’t be pre-booked, so having a car definitely gave us peace of mind. We ate dinner at the hotel twice, and both meals were excellent. I’ve been coming to Yalıkavak for many years, and it’s changed quite a bit since our last visit seven years ago — much more built up and with a lot more traffic in town. We had booked Limon a month or two in advance — I love it there, especially as a veggie — but it’s really the ambience that makes it special, sitting in the garden watching the sunset. Another great find was Raha, on the seafront in the old town near the car park. I would 100% recommend a stay at The 4 Reasons and would definitely return if we come back to Yalıkavak in the future.

From start to finish it was amazing, it’s a great luxury spot with super attentive staff that will go above and beyond at all times. The pool area and the views are perfect and a short taxi away to all the beach clubs

A haven of serenity on Bodrum peninsula We loved the relaxed and friendly atmosphere at the 4 Reasons. There was plenty of space and beds around the pool and it all felt very tranquil with stunning views of Yalikavak below. Staff around the bar are attentive and friendly. We enjoyed games of pool in the evening. It's about a 20 min walk down to the beach, we took taxis back which were fairly cheap. The hotel also gave advice on other places to eat - recomend a dinner in Gumusluk. And if you go to the old mariner there's a cooperative of boat owners and can arrange gullet trips, either private or part of a small group. We stayed in a 2-bedroom room which had plenty of space for us and teenage daughter with seaview balcony.

This is the most perfect small hotel- it was so comfortable and the views were wonderful! Everything about the hotel was just exquisite- the gardens, the pool, the food (wonderful breakfasts) and the view. My daughter and I participated in the yoga which was excellent. Nothing to fault!

Paradise! Always pleasure to stay. Great view, amazing atmosphere, lovely staff, perfect hospitality. See you next time!

Beautiful & welcoming The hotel was a perfect little hideaway from all the hustle of Yallakavick. It’s a little further out from Bodrum city centre so something to factor in if you want to be making trips to that part of town. But the service is excellent (Shaban basically planned my three day itinerary for me!), the view is beautiful and the bed is incredibly comfortable. A great place to unwind.
