Great time in the villa. Large grand entrance through the garden openıng up to a dream lıke pıcturesc sunny yellow Jewel of a Vılla. The rooms are cosy and very homely, unlıke most vıllas that are plaın whıte and wıthout character. The pıctures dont do the place justıce. We set up a nice dinner table and had a family dinner in the garden. A party I can’t forget. I hope to stay again. Dalyan was amazing, I feel jealous of anyone who has the luxury of living in Dalyan!

Date of arrival – April 24, 2019
The villa has very good facilities throughout. Good workable kitchen. Situated in the basement is a second, large lounge with big tv screen with sat. stations and lots of soft seating for everyone. Garden and pool area have comfortable lounges and we love the outdoor eating area which is big enough for all to enjoy. As you can see, the overall listing description was spot on. The property was clean with good customer service. Well situated for the very good selection of restaurants and bars with friendly and attentive staff who help to make it a good night out. Some restaurants, such as Sahil’s, situated on the riverside with lovely views, will pick you up and take you back to the villa free of charge. Plenty of activities and visits if you want if want a more active holiday. We have already recommended this villa to our friends and family. Can’t wait for our next visit to Dalyan.
Beautiful place, Great Location!

We stayed at the Dalyan Jewel for a week. It’s a beautiful place, peaceful, each room has its own bathroom and the place is big enough to be together as well as have private space. The outside eating area is just a gorgeous place to have breakfast and lounge around the pool. It’s close to the town, shops and local bakery and there are bikes provided which is really handy. Charles was a great host, checking we had everything and giving us suggestions on great places, thanks for having us. We had a lovely time and would definitely return!

We stayed for a week at Dalyan Jewel for a week in early May. The house and gardens are beautiful and the villa has everything you’ll need. Really peaceful place to stay and just a short, less than 10 mins, bike ride in to the town. The weather was wonderful too and so lovely to chill out by the pool in the Spring sunshine. Dalyan is a fantastic place to visit, lots to do and well catered for eating out, shopping and a local market. I’d love to return, thanks for having us. 🙂
Amazing villa and splendid location: perfect holidays!

We had a wonderful time in this gorgeous and super comfy villa (uniquely designed by the owner himself). “Dalyan Jewel” truly deserves its name. It’s tastefully decorated, very spacious and very clean. Private balconies can be found outside the large and comfortable (all, en-suite) bedrooms. The villa is very well located; only a walking distance from the town centre. We loved spending time around the pool and enjoyed the garden where we had breakfast every morning. Fully equipped kitchen and all the facilities you may be looking for, including: Jacuzzi, 3 washing-machines, air con, large screen TV, dish-washer and (much enjoyed) bicycles. Charles was a warm, helpful and considerate host. He booked our (late) airport transfers and popped by the day after our arrival, to see if we needed anything. He immediately made us feel welcome. He also gave us some useful tips to enjoy the local and breathtaking landscapes. Sightseeing opportunities literally abound in this beautiful region: Dalyan River and its Channel, the nearby lake, beach, mountains, historical sites…. They’re all accessible by affordable boats and/or taxis, and a few buses. Being able to use the bikes to get around was handy and a lot of fun. We’ve enjoyed discovering that stunning part of Turkey, with its delicious food and friendly, welcoming locals. Charles’ villa is a real treat and he’s a fabulous host. Strongly recommend…
American tourists Love of Dalyan
I visited Turkey in August 2017. It seems like forever since I was there but the allure of all that is Turkish is with me every day and I long to return. When I was planning my trip to Turkey both friends and family were regularly warning me about the dangers of travelling to a predominantly Muslim country. Their concerns were in direct alignment with some of the verbiage I found on the US State Departments web site warning of possible terror attacks and other risks they believed to be part of travelling in Turkey. Having some native Turks as friends and acquaintances both here in the US and in Turkey I was not concerned. They had already warned me about crooked taxi drivers and night life risks and all the usual warnings applied. I ignored all that I had read online and I ignored the pleas from relatives and friends to reconsider and I had nothing short of an epic visit. In fact, I felt much more at ease and safe than I do in most US cities. I wandered around on dark streets in Istanbul, I took long walks by the water and along the many little hotels in Dalyan.

Wonderful home from home for all the family.

I can highly recommend this Villa to anyone from couples to multi-family. The layout is perfect inside with 2 bedrooms “1 Double and 1 Twin” on the ground floor, 3 bedrooms “2 Double and 1 Twin” on the first floor and what can only be described as a mini apartment on the second floor. All the beds are comfortable which was a major plus for both me with knee problems and my elderly Mum who suffer with bad back and other ailments. There is also plenty of storage space in all bedrooms so any longer term renters should fear not. Everything you could want in a home is here including 3 washing machines, Large fridge freezer and cooking facilities. There is plenty of seating in the lounge and a large screen TV. The pool is excellent and its shape allows a shallow end for kids as well as a deeper end for better swimmers and adults. There are plenty of Lilow around the pool for sunning yourself and a huge bar area outside is great for get togethers too and has it own fridge to keep the beers cool. Positioned at the top end of town is not a problem as the walk is nice or you can do as we did and get one of the 2 or 3 seat scooters that are rentable in town. I do not usually like giving 5 stars to anything but with Dalyan Jewel i have no problems at all. Special mention for Charlie Bentley, “My family will never forget how amazing you have been and all the help you gave for our stay” and Thank You to Mehmet, i know i was a pain with the internet but you came through and fast. If you have a chance to stay here DO IT, you will not regret it.

Fabulous Villa
Left on Aug 21, 2015 for a stay in Jul 2015
It was a great pleasure to stay in this villa for a week with my extended family of fourteen. The bedrooms were spacious and clean. The garden and swimming pool were very well maintained. Loved the outdoor eating area which accommodated all of us. Though it is close to Dalyan town it feels very secluded. There is stock nest at the entrance to the villa and it was a highlight for the children and adults to watch the pair of stocks returning each evening!

“im pleased you had a good holiday an we also love the storks nest – they come every year and stay with their partner for life breeding in the nest and usually raising three babies each year before flying back to morocco”

Another Beautiful Villa in Dalyan
Left on Oct 5, 2015 for a stay in Sep 2015
We had previously last year stayed at the Dalyan Jewell across the road but due to availability chose the Dalyan Dream Villa. Clean, spacious and with the added benefit of an outdoor jacuzzi. The bedrooms where of good size, all with private bathrooms, the top floor also had an indoor jacuzzi which was great to use after a long day in the sun. We had some poor weather for the first 2 days but took use of the under cover section to chill out etc. Pool was a good size and the kitchen / lounge was ample to cook and relax. Like the Jewell it was immaculate and would recommend to any one#

We stayed at the Dalyan Jewel for a week at the end of June and had a great time! There was plenty of room for us all (group of 10 adults) and the facilities were great. The bar a pool area were fantastic and great for relaxing in the sunshine. The cushioned area at the back was great for a little drink in the evenings or relaxing with a book. The transfers were arranged with no issues at all and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. The local area has so much to offer both in the way of scenery and restaurants. We went on a number of trips…the turkish baths arranged with Oruc travel were a hit with everyone who went. We also went to Itzu (?) Beach which was a 20mins bus trip away and absolutly stunning. Would be great for kids too as not to busy and waters are quite shallow. The villa was fantastic with lovely gardens which made it feel very secluded with everything you need still close by. All round everyone had a great time and I would highly recommend a trip to Dalyan as it is such a great place!! Thanks to everyone who made our holiday so great!

“thanks for the review and pleased you tried a turkish bath – there are tow other great ones also in Dalyan – one at the BC spa hotel and the otheris only 300 metres away”

Everything we wanted and more

The villa is gorgeous, huge inside with decent sized bedrooms and two huge lounges. Comfortably sleeps up to 12,. Fully equipped kitchen and decent bow. We loved sitting out at night but beware of making noise or swimming after midnight, this is a no no. Town and shops are a three minute walk away and the turtle watching and crabbing boat trip is highly recommended. We were well looked after and there’s a huge stack of pool towels to use, so don’t pack them! Save your luggage space for presents! Would recommend.
Your response:
“Thanks for the review – the noise after midnight is just to be courteous to other locals and holiday makers with children but glad you had a great holiday”

Just returned from an amazing week at the Dalyan jewel at Easter 2015. Family of 12 including children and grandchildren. Plenty of room plus much to spare. Spotlessly clean and well maintained. Equipped with everything you need and more. The garden was beautiful, well maintained with an excellent bbq and lovely outdoor seating area. Pool was beautiful but cold (it was April). Oruk (the company that maintain and run the villa) very helpful giving sound advice on which trips would be suitable ! Short walking distance into town and no need for a car. Very memorable and would love to come back.

Just returned from a week in the Villa Jewel, thoroughly enjoyed the stay . I’ve been lucky enough to have been to Dalyan 4 times and have stayed in some nice villas so my expectations were high . The villa is great , the gardens are simply stunning , lovely pool loads of room , everything you would want from a holiday villa in abundance. Nice and quiet location but close enough to enjoy the walk into the centre . Met the owner several times , couldn’t have been more helpful , great guy and look forward to meeting up with him again in the future, thanks for looking after us .

DalyanDream exceeded our expectation of a holiday villa with every possible comfort catered for. We flew into Dalaman and were picked up and delivered to the villa in about 20 mins to half an hour. We were greeted by a stunning house complete with swimming pool, hot tub, and a very attactive layout. A really spacious living room and kithcen and eating area, adjoin the hot tub and swimming pool through sliding glass doors. There is a ground floor bedroom for people with limited mobility,( which was typical of the tought that had gone into this villa) as well as a groundfloor loo. the kitchen and living room was very well equipt with cooker.microwave, fridge,dvd tv 50”,All the bedrooms were very spacious and well laid out with wonderful balconies giving stunning views of Dalyan and surrounding country. The holiday Company Oruc came in and told us what was available in the way of trips and attractions and cleaned the pool daily. All in all we found the villa extremely comfortable, Dalyan very attractive and unspoilt, the beach one of the best in Europe and the country beautiful which conbined to make a fab holiday.
