Oludeniz Hotels and Accommodation
(Oludeniz, Mugla Province, Turkey)
Oludeniz has bags of accommodation and most budgets are catered for in everything from cheap B&Bs to all-inclusive five-star hotels. Other lodging options include villas, apartments and cottages. The norm is three-star hotels with half-board.
As Oludeniz mainly caters to families, most hotels and resorts are child-friendly and have accommodation well set up for this purpose. Many of the bigger resorts, both at the beach and in Hisaronu, even come with their own kids' clubs.
Where to Stay
Previously a quaint holiday destination, Oludeniz has certainly grown up over the years and now boasts many hotel options right behind the main Belcekiz Beach.
For ardent fans of peace and quiet, this can be something of a nightmare, but it presents good options for the masses.
Hotels in Oludeniz can be found next to the beach, near the Blue Lagoon, and farther away in Hisaronu and Ovacik - the older parts of the town.
These latter destinations have the better choices and are a mere five or ten minutes from the beach and lagoon by shuttle bus.
Accommodation options here are also cheaper than the beach hotels and have better nearby facilities, including shops and eateries.
A popular budget hotel in Ovacik is the Sultan Motel, which is near the start of the Lycian Way and is thus perfect for keen walkers.
A very notable middle-range accommodation choice is the Aygul Hotel, a family-run place with good facilities and a swimming pool. There is also a kiddie section complete with playground, and the views of Oludeniz and the beach from its lofty setting are sublime.
