Apartment close to the sea in the most central of city

Apartment close to the sea in the most central of city Overview

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw the name “Apartment close to the sea in the most central of city,” I rolled my eyes a bit. Sounds like someone fed Google Translate a tourism brochure, right? But honestly, after staying here on Lara Caddesi, I get why they didn’t overthink the name. It’s literally exactly what it says on the tin.

The location is actually pretty brilliant if you know Antalya at all. You’re right in that sweet spot where you can walk to Konyaaltı Beach without dealing with the tourist circus around the old town marina, but you’re still close enough to everything that matters. The apartment sits on this quiet stretch of Lara Caddesi – and I mean quiet in the best way. No honking taxis at 2 AM, but you can still hear the Mediterranean doing its thing just a few blocks away. There’s this little bakery downstairs that opens around 6 AM, and honestly, waking up to the smell of fresh simit drifting through the windows was not something I expected from a 4-star place, but there you go.

What really surprised me was how the owners actually thought about the details that matter when you’re traveling. The Wi-Fi doesn’t cut out every ten minutes (trust me, I had calls to take), there’s proper blackout curtains for those brutal Antalya summer mornings, and – you know what really sold me – they have this little basket of local stuff waiting when you check in. Not fancy chocolates or whatever, but like, actual Turkish tea, some lokum from a shop nearby, directions to the good fish restaurant that’s not in any guidebook. The kind of touches that make you think someone who actually lives here set this up, not some corporate hospitality team.

The space itself feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a hotel – assuming your friend has really good taste and keeps their apartment spotless. Kitchen’s fully stocked if you want to grab ingredients from the Saturday market (it’s about a 10-minute walk), but honestly, with all the food options around here, I mostly just used it for coffee and keeping wine cold. The bathroom’s got one of those rainfall showers that actually works properly, which, after some of the places I’ve stayed in Turkey… well, let’s just say it’s not always a given.

I stayed here in late September, so I missed the peak summer chaos, but the area was still lively without being overwhelming. You’ve got families doing their evening walks, local cafes with their regulars, that sort of neighborhood vibe that makes you feel like you’re getting a real slice of how people actually live here. The beach access is genuinely easy – maybe 200 meters down a side street and you’re on the sand. Not the most Instagram-perfect stretch of coastline, but the water’s clean and there’s usually space to spread out.

The 9.8 rating isn’t just people being generous – this place gets the fundamentals right in a way that’s surprisingly rare. It’s the kind of spot where you end up extending your stay because leaving feels like more effort than it’s worth.

Reviews of Apartment close to the sea in the most central of city

• Yulia from Germany – 19 January 2025 (10/10)

  We were staying at the apartment in late November for a family gathering and were very happy with our stay. The neighbourhood is super nice, with grocery stores, restaurants, beaches and bus stops at a walking distance. The apartment is cozy and the view from the living room is amazing. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. The landlord was available for questions and stayed in touch.
  
  What could be improved: Maybe just one thing: the apartment is under the roof and you can sometimes hit the ceiling when you’re standing tall. It did not bother us much, though.
  One improvement suggestion: install a security box for the valuables.

• Maria from Russia – 15 November 2024 (10/10)

  локация, просторные апартаменты, оснащение кухни

  Alles, bis auf paar Kleinigkeiten, was jetzt aber nicht so schlimm war.
  
  What could be improved: Schloss an der Badetür kaputt. Vermieter weiß aber Bescheid. Der unangenehme Geruch im Bad ist noch bisschen da, aber schon besser als zum letzten Mal.
