Oliviera Private Island Hotel - Kalem Island

A lovely hotel on a small island with crystal‑clear water; the staff were friendly and the beach was ideal for kids because there were hardly any waves. Unfortunately, there were no nearby shops like a kiosk or market.

The dinner was really, really good, and everything else—location, staff attitude, layout of the hotel, and the sea—was perfect.

The whole design, the atmosphere, the garden, and the restaurant were great. The staff at the restaurant and on the beach were perfect, though the reception staff were not so much. There was no bath on the second floor of the room, and more beaches should be available on the private island. A silent beach is required, and the rate is quite expensive, but overall it was good.

“Nice view but everything was very expensive! Disappointing...”

The sea was very clean and nice. For the price we paid, the complimentary breakfast was below average with a lot of flies. Our room had broken glass pieces under a table that left a small cut on my 2‑year‑old foot—probably from a previous guest. Only one booster seat was available at the breakfast restaurant, so it wasn’t very kid‑friendly. The place was very hilly, and a small bottle of water cost 75 lira, a small dessert in a cup was 450 lira, and everything else was very expensive.

“Overall, our stay was a total disappointment, despite the island’s beautiful natural surroundings. The experience simply”

This is one of the most stunning beaches I’ve ever seen in Turkey, with crystal‑clear water where you can swim with fish, and the island itself is a breathtaking showcase of nature’s beauty in every shade of green—a true paradise. Our two‑day stay was marred by several problems: during dinner we found dishwasher residue in our wine glass, which was off‑putting; breakfast was disappointing because we were served molded tomato paste (ezme); the jacuzzi in our room was filthy, with dirt coming out of the pipes and a large spider in the tub; initially there was no hot water in the jacuzzi, which was only fixed after multiple requests; many wines on the menu were unavailable, and we were offered a glass of white wine that had been opened two days earlier; the meat dish we ordered was among the worst we’ve ever had despite its high price; our cocktail order at the beach had to be repeated three times, and there was no service or drinks at the pool area. Overall, the experience did not meet expectations, especially given the cost, and I would not recommend this hotel.
