Yonca Lodge

The pictures and reviews really don’t do this place justice. We were after a relaxing break and this small, friendly hotel delivered perfectly. It’s a little hidden gem, tucked away with its own private stretch of beach and set in amongst lush greenery. We totally fell in love with the resident ducks and spent hours lazing on the swinging chair watching the turtles in the pond. Other reviewers have mentioned noise from a neighbouring all-inclusive but I have to say we didn’t really notice it much. The frogs are very noisy though! We loved the beach restaurant and ate there most nights. Effe, Mehmet and the rest of the team were so warm and friendly and the setting at sundown was particularly lovely. Yonca Lodge offers simplicity and hospitality - and nature lovers will really like it, I think. Really reasonable too.

Pricing/performance doesn’t prove good. Unfortunately, the rooms are no leaks. They’re entering because there are so many covers between the doors. The staff is very helpful, it''s a lovely beachside spot. Breakfast is provided. The sea isn’t beautiful. In my opinion, they should employ more staff. Sometimes breakfast is missing because the staff couldn’t get it.

We visit every year, and it never disappoints! This is truly the best place on planet Earth—peaceful, spotless, and full of charm. The food is absolutely delicious, with plenty of local flavors to enjoy. May and October offer perfect weather—not too hot, not too cool—ideal for exploring or relaxing by the sea. The atmosphere is calm, the people are friendly, and the natural beauty is breathtaking. Prices are fair, especially for the quality you get. Whether you’re here for a short break or a long stay, Fethiye is a dream destination worth returning to again and again.
