Baraka House

İhsan Bey ve ailesinin süper işlet**si. Eylül 2019’da en son konaklamamızdan sonra hiçbir güzelliğini kaybet**miş… Harika kahvaltı, tertemiz odalar, doğada geçirilen eşsiz ortam, samimi ve içten aile ortamı. Tekrar görüşmek üzere ✌🏻

Baraka House is a family-run venture. The family are all lovely and funny and very helpful. They went out of their way to make our stay special. The gardens are a peaceful haven with chicks, cats, a tortoise, orange and pomegranate trees and hammocks. It is only 2 minutes from the beach and the location could not be better. But most importantly, this is the best food in Cirali. The breakfast is the best that we had in our travels around Turkey and every dinner was spot on. Daily changes in mezes and meat and fish cooked perfectly over hot coals. Honestly, dream food. This is a small and very good business - we loved every second of our stay.

This place is a gem. You can tell this family business is a labor of love and every detail is right and thoughtful. Great vibes which make for a profoundly restful holiday ✨ We stayed there for 3 nights with our 3 year old boy. The location is great (sea front) and the garden looks stunning, with bougainvillea, pomegranate and orange trees, with majestic Olympos mountains as backdrop. Chickens wander freely - for our kid’s joy! The area is calm and untouched, starry nights just beautiful. Bungalows are simple, very clean and comfortable. Ihsan is the coolest dude. Not only is he an amazing chef (we ended up having dinner there every night, there’s a fixed menu and daily specials, all delicious and very affordable) but he also plays great music (70s Turkish music which seems straight out of a Habibi Funk album for dinner, classical music for breakfast), gives the best recommendations (our boat trip to surrounding bays and bike trip to Yanartas were perfect, the massage he booked for us at the guesthouse was memorable) and volunteers for a local organization for the preservation of turtle nesting in Cirali (Cirali is home to Canetta turtles nests). Ihsan, his brother Oczan and the young woman who also worked at Baraka 🧿🐠✋ this summer are the kindest. We wish we had stayed longer as this felt like a real holiday, where time stops and simple things can be enjoyed to the fullest. We travelled along the coast from Antalya to Kas and we felt that, even in the middle of peak season, Cirali remains quiet, authentic and slow.

Very comfortable and clean lodgings in the most beautiful garden setting. The garden was lush and fragrant with the smell of flowers. Baraka feels secluded but also close to the beach and to restaurants in town. The family who run this business are extremely nice. Their breakfasts were absolutely delicious and bountiful. Wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend this place!

Our cottage was spotless and incredibly comfortable! Literally one minute from the beach - so close we took a dip the morning we checked out. The food was delicious and fresh, and everyone was incredibly warm and welcoming to us. I am not a Turkish speaker but I felt completely comfortable in English.

Wow - we had such a incredible time at Ihsan's place. The gardens are truly magical and make it feel like a world on its own - orange groves, and pomegranate trees, with kittens and chicks running around under them. Literally next to the beautiful beach of Cirali, with the best food in town at the hotel itself - we thought we'd gone to heaven. The grilled sea bass we had on the first night was one of the best meals we've ever had. Ihsan is super helpful and suggested great outings, from the Chimera at one end of the beach to Olympos at the other, and the Ulipinar fish restaurants in the hills. We'll be back.

We stayed here with my family for 4 days. The stay was so wonderful, I will never forget it. Ishan the host and cook of the venue is fantastic. He made this vacation. Never seen such a hospitable, friendly man and the best cook you can imagine. If you are considering going to this region, choose this accommodation!

This is a cute family-run collection of bungalows. They are serious about the freshness of their food. The citrus trees in the garden are so beautiful. The bungalows are very clean and have decks out front. Overall, a very good choice for Cirali.

It took me forever to leave the review about my stay. And what a stay it was! I learned about Cirali from the locals, looked up a perfect accommodation online, and came to stay for a full week. From the beginning to end, before I even arrived, Ishan made sure that I was happy, comfortable, had everything I need, and well fed! I booked a private transfer from Antalia from the Baraka house - the pick up was on-time and the ride was comfortable. The return transfer was also organized by the Ishan. Rooms - I didn't have a chance to stay in a bungalow, but I did check them out - each one is unique, creatively designed and comfortable. August was a busy month and it was not possible to accommodate me in one room throughout my long-ish stay. Ishan found a solution and rented an alternative room - different than bungalow, but very comfortable. On arrival, bouquet of fresh flowers and a bottle of wine has welcomed me to the room! The grounds are luscious with beautiful trees and flowers and I felt like I was in the tropics. Birds singing, flowers blooming, and I even found a hedgehog comfortably sunbathing next to my room. The family grows a lot of what they use in their elegantly designed restaurant, right on the property. I saw some fruit trees for the first time in my life and finally got an idea bout how they grow :). My room had a very nice outside personal seating area, where I spend most of my time. Looking back, I fondly reminisce about that time and wish I could transport myself there even for a minute. Briefly about the things that were very important and contributed to my stay: Cleanliness - excellent. The family works hard and constantly attends to the well-being of the property. I observed all of them working 24-hours, not sure if they ever sleep. Safety - I left my room open and computer outside, people could care less. I never felt threatened. Hot Water in the shower - plenty. and with a good pressure. WiFi - flying. I was able to do video conferencing, screen sharing, emails, document processing, everything without a hitch. Streaming shows in the evenings was also uninterrupted. Beach access - exit the property, gorgeous clean beach is right in front of you. How I want to take a dip there right now! Access - the hotel is located in the center of Cirali. Restaurants, markets, clothes shops, bike rentals all within 5 min walking distance. I tried taking buses and check the neighboring villages, there are plenty around, but I didn't want to wait and deal with schedules. The best solution was to use the hotel transfer services or take a taxi. It was also possible to take a long walk to Olympus, but be mindful of strong sun. All in all, it was a fantastic stay in a beautiful area, surrounded by spectacular beaches. Thanks to Ishan and the family for making my stay unforgettable!
