The Datça Peninsula reaches out from south-west Muğla towards the point where the Aegean meets the Mediterranean, between the Gulf of Gökova to the north and the Gulf of Hisarönü to the south. With its clear bays, almond and olive groves, stone-built villages and ancient cities such as Knidos, it brings together a relaxed holiday and days full of discovery.
Our hotel is in the east of the peninsula, in the Kızlan neighbourhood on the Marmaris–Datça road. In this guide we have gathered places to visit, bays and beaches for swimming, local flavours, things to do and how to reach us, each in its own section. Distances and seasonal details are approximate, so we recommend checking the latest information before you set out.
