Villa Dreams Reviews

Great location on top of hill with town panoramic view. Host is very friendly and offers easy transfer to town center. Room is super clean and well organised. Highly recommended!

As the first night in Turkey, I was impressed. Overlooking the castle ruins... This room has a large bathtub on the outdoor terrace, which is very comfortable. The boss is also nice, but the interior hardware can be improved.

At the commanding heights of the city, there are two ways to drive to the hotel. One road is very steep and the other is relatively normal. Remember to read the email sent by the boss before setting off.

The B&B is on a hillside, far from OTOGAR, relatively close to the train station, but because it is all uphill, it is very difficult to walk, and it is really tiring to drag a suitcase. It is recommended to take a taxi or contact the hotel by email before check-in. The owner is very nice and should be happy to drive to pick you up. If you don't have a local phone card, you can add the owner's WhatsApp in advance for easy contact.

This homestay is on a hillside in Selcuk. It can be said that it is basically at the top of the hillside. The last bit of the road is steeper. Down the hillside is the train station and the city center. It takes 10 minutes to walk up the hill and about 8 minutes to walk down the hill. Selcuk is not a big town. St. John's Church (castle), Archaeological Museum, Temple ruins, etc. are all within walking distance and can be reached in a few minutes. The ruins of Ephesus are a little farther away and are more worth exploring. You can take a minibus or call a taxi at the taxi station by phone. The two guys of Minsu, Meili and Okayy, are both handsome guys with good service awareness. Meili is enthusiastic and Okayy is thoughtful. They do their best to make guests feel comfortable and convenient. Meili warmly received us and quickly narrowed the distance between us. Okayy drove us to the vicinity of the train station twice, saving us a lot of physical strength and time. Thank you very much for their service. The breakfast of Minsu is very good. Although simple, it is very attentive. The restaurant is warm and friendly. It is very cool in the morning and the mood for dining is pleasant. Although the room is not big, the view is superb. At sunset, you can see the distant coast, castle, and the whole town of Selcuk. There are planes taking off and landing from time to time at a small airport in the distance. These dreamy views are worth the difficulty of that small hillside. In addition, the people in the town are kind and friendly, the children are warm and generous, and the elderly are leisurely, drinking tea and playing cards. It is a very pleasant place. The time is too tight this time, and I will stay a few more days next time. I hope to put a non-slip mat in the bathroom to make it more perfect. This is a small suggestion. This guesthouse is located on a hillside in Selcuk, almost at the top of the slope, with the last part of the road being a bit steep. Coming down the hill, you’ll find the train station, which is also the city center. It takes about 10 minutes to walk up the hill and about 8 minutes to walk down. Selcuk is a small town, and attractions like the St. John’s Church (Castle), Archaeological Museum, and Temple Ruins are all within walking distance, just a few minutes away. Ephesus Ruins are a bit further away, but they are definitely worth exploring. You can take a mini bus or call a taxi from the taxi stand. The two hosts of the guesthouse, Meili and Okayy, are both very service-oriented. Meili is enthusiastic, and Okayy is considerate, making sure guests feel comfortable and convenient. Meili warmly welcomed us and quickly became close to us. Okayy drove us to the train station twice, saving us a lot of energy and time. We are very grateful for their service. The guesthouse’s breakfast is excellent. Although simple, it is prepared with care. The restaurant is cozy and friendly, and the mornings are pleasantly cool, creating a delightful atmosphere for dining. The rooms may not be large, but the view is superb. During sunset, you can see the distant coastline, the castle, and the entire town of Selcuk. There is a small airport in the distance, and occasionally planes take off and land, adding to the dreamlike scenery. It is worth facing the difficulties of that little slope for such breathtaking views. Additionally, the people in town are kind and friendly, the children are warm and generous, and the elderly live a leisurely life, enjoying tea and playing cards. It is a very relaxing and pleasant place. Unfortunately, we had limited time this visit, but we will definitely stay longer next time. It would be perfect if they could place an anti-slip mat in the bathroom. This is just a small suggestion.

The hotel overlooks the city, and looks across to St. John's Church and the castle on Ayasuluk Hill. Especially in the evening, you can enjoy the sunset of the castle on the opposite side of Ayasuluk Mountain from the balcony, which is very beautiful.

Really good, the boss is very enthusiastic, good

I was a little skeptical on the way there, but when I got there I felt it was very good. The owner was friendly, the decoration was new, and the room with a balcony had a great view.

The hotel manager is very friendly. It has been upgraded to a place with a good view, and it is a place where you can see cell construction right away. It is recommended to move it from the pool view to the top. Breakfast was also prepared on a plate basis, and there was no shortage

房間陽台的景觀超級漂亮，城堡日落值得一看。即便走路去小鎮吃東西也很近，適合一家人出行。

除了山路有點難開，其他都超級棒，早飯不錯，風景絕佳，俯瞰就是阿爾忒彌斯神廟。

My family of 4 spent one night in the family room - a large, bright room with modern furnishings and balcony with views of the pool and Selcuk beyond. We were given a warm welcome, enjoyed a swim in the pool and particularly good traditional Turkish breakfast. Villa Dreams is set up on a hill - we walked in for lunch. It was quite steep on the way back but manageable. Ephesus is located closeby - 10 minutes by car from Selcuk- and we decided to visit later in the afternoon when temperatures had cooled, crowds had slightly subsided and there was the chance to see some of the buildings lit up. It was wonderful to see the Ancient ruins and to also enjoy the immersive experience.

We absolutely loved our stay. Okyay and Deniz were warm and welcoming, greeting us upon arrival and assisting with parking. The hotel has been nicely renovated. I stayed with my parents in the large family room with a private terrace which had a spectacular view of the Basilica of St John. The pool area was quaint and the pool very clean. Drinks and bar snacks were available, with food made to order. Breakfast was nicely presented, tasty, and traditional. If you’re expecting to walk, you need to be fit, but don’t fret if you’re not, as they provide a shuttle to take you into town where there are lots of dining options. They also collect you and bring you back up to the hotel. I took myself off for an early morning stroll into the town and down to the Basillica of St John. I had issues with lost baggage and had been given phone number by the airline, but as it was in Turkish I couldn’t understand. I explained what had happened to Okyay, and he called the number for me and translated to English. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel – it was peaceful, traditional and delightful. We will be back.

DO NOT STAY! Run away. This is the worst property we have ever stayed at in our entire lives. The owner has a bad attitude and thinks of his property as a 5 star hotel. My issues with the hotel during our stay was way too many; but i will try to do my best to list the ones that instantly come to mind. 1) Initial check in experience. I knew from the get go that the owner had attitude issues. I asked him if he can message us or call us if the room is available before 2pm and he insisted that 2pm check in means 2 pm. 2) pick up from meeting point. The first attempt at pickup was a fail. After calling him 3 times and multiple messages and waiting 20 minutes with no response, we decided to walk in the afternoon. They did give us rides two other times. 3) Almost non functional wifi. Has many wifi networks, but none of them work. When i asked them, they kept saying it is working. But , both myself and my wife had way too many issues with the wifi, that we used roaming data. 4) Bed sheet was dirty. We could see black stains on the bed sheet; looks like they did not even bother changing the bed sheet. 5) Algae and mold in the hot tub. Despite cleaning the hot tub multiple times, it was extremely gross to use; so we did not use. 6) Difficult door to operate. Had to call the owner at 10pm. 7) Unsafe environment around the hotel. Did not feel safe walking around even during day time. 7) swimming pool repair making it non usable. 8) AC broken. 9) No elevator
