Lizo Hotel in Kalkan

Ali, Sarah and their children could not have given us a warmer welcome. We needed somewhere for the day before heading to the airport. Spotlessly clean, pool fabulous and lunch was delicious. It’s a shame we didn’t know about this beautiful traditional hotel before xx

Great value for money, peaceful. Ali and his family were friendly, courteous and kind.

Me and my wife have returned back to Kalkan and staying at the Lizo hotel for the first time I think it outstanding value and the meze and bbq food was outstanding couldn’t do enough for you best meal iv had in Kalkan The Turkish breakfast what they serve daily on the roof top is out of this world well done to Ali and family 🙏

This is an old house that has been repainted and cleaned. It is called a hotel, but it is actually a B&B. The male owner is very nice, warm and talkative. He will recommend a barbecue restaurant he often visits, which is indeed a very good restaurant. The rooftop terrace is very large, and you can see the whole town and the stars late at night. The facilities are a bit old, so you need to bring your own towels, toothbrushes, slippers, etc.

My partner has stayed many times and advised we should have dinner one evening. We arrived to a fabulous welcome from ali and his family and made our way to the rooftop terrace for dinner. We chose the bar b q and left it to ali what we had to eat. Out cane numerous mezes that we could help ourselves to with fresh bread and ten followers chicken and lamb's kebabs. And food kept coming being encouraged to eat more and not leave hungry. This was followed by home made baclava made by his mother. Food amazing, the views to die for and as for hospitality? There was never a better one received during our two week stay than was received from ali and his family. If you want a genuine turkish welcome and amazing food, this is the place

Just returned from a fantastic two weeks at the Lizo Hotel. We booked for three days, but ended up staying two weeks! The Lizo Hotel is in an incredible position overlooking Kalkan bay and the surrounding mountains - the roof terrace must have one of the best views in Kalkan. Ali, Sarah and their two children, Jessie and Kaleb are such amazing hosts - they are welcoming, great fun and treat you like members of the family. The rooms are comfortable and well equipped - we were lucky enough to stay in two different seaview rooms during our stay which had the most incredible views. Most rooms have a fridge and all have air conditioning which is a must in the summer months! The pool area is brilliant, with plenty of really comfortable loungers and the pool itself is a good size and depth - we spent a lot of time in there with the kids! Breakfast is also an optional extra which I definitely recommend - traditional Turkish with products fresh from their own garden. Ali and family offer delicious lunches and dinners on the roof terrace - we had a brilliant BBQ night and some amazing sea bass and mezes - all very reasonably priced. The hotel is in a great position with just a short, downhill 15min walk into town and there are also shops and restaurants close to the hotel itself. We definitely arrived as guests and left as friends and would wholeheartedly recommend the Lizo Hotel (and its brilliant new signage!!) to all. Unbelievable scenes, Jeff!

Last minute break
Booked a last minute 3 night break to Kalkan. What a gem we found. Small clean family run hotel with the best view and the most helpful couple you could find. Just a short 15 minute walk into town. Located on the Kalamar Rd with a few bars and restaurants minutes away
We were sad to leave Ali, Sarah, Caleb and Jessie but will return.

We had the most amazing stay with Lizo Hotel. Ali and is family were super accommodating and attentive - nothing was to much of an ask. The rooms are clean, and the beds comfy. They have a good varied food menu - if you would like a taste of turkey, then please try the food, it’s amazing. There is a decent sized pool, comfy sun beds and a small pool bar. We are definitely going to return in the future.
