Keskin Hotel Dalyan

With its gable rooftops and pastel-hued exteriors, the Keskin Hotel looks a lot like a dollhouse. It pairs its picturesque façade with a gorgeous setting – the property is nestled in tropical gardens in the foothills of Dalyan’s pine-forested mountains, so the views are epic. When you want to sample the tavernas and bars of the resort centre, it’s just a 15-minute amble along the riverfront.

The glossy shrubs and palm trees open out to three pools in the heart of the grounds. One comes with a section for children, and there’s a playground close by. Mums and dads can catch a little R&R on the surrounding loungers, and a neighbouring bar takes care of cold beers, cocktails and light bites like burgers and sandwiches.
