Grenadine Lodge

I have just come back from teaching a yoga retreat at Grenadine Lodge, and I couldn't recommend it more highly. Tranquil and beautifully landscaped gardens, comfortable and clean rooms, all set around a central saltwater pool (deliciously cool and so lovely not to have chemicals in!), a lovely bar serving fresh pomegranate juice, other drinks and a great bar menu for smaller snacks or delicious meals, all freshly prepared and showing off Turkish cuisine. The breakfast and evening meals in the adjacent restaurant are buffet style, abundant and consistently excellent. We had veggie, which was extremely varied and tasty, but you can also have fresh fish and meat cooked to order. The staff make your stay extra special: always smiling, kind and on hand to help, they felt like family by the end of the week. I miss them and Grenadine Lodge already and can't wait to return for another yoga retreat next year. The yoga space is covered but open, overlooking pomegranate fields. Well equipped and quiet. Dalyan itself is absolutely beautiful, with so much bird watching, turtles that come up to your riverside restaurant to eat your scraps, to endless cats and kittens; whether you want unspoilt sandy beaches and turtle sanctuary, archeological and historical richness, spice bazaars, boat trips to swim in secluded, blue seas (take your snorkelling gear!) or peace under starry skies.

It offers everything a traveller could want from comfort and enjoyment to exploring the countryside nearby all taken care of by Grenadine Lodge. I have been on many yoga retreats but on this one I found true happiness among fellow yogis who will be friends for life, thanks to Aygul and her staff, who made sure we were always happy and enjoying the experience. I’ll be back!! 🙏

Staying at the Grenadine Lodge is my highlight of the year. On a week’s yoga retreat it’s everything I could hope for. The chalets are a perfect home, the facilities are beautiful with a gorgeous swimming pool surrounded by palm trees and mountains. Staff like Khan & Aygul are most attentive and feel like family. The chef cooks up the most delightful vegetarian meals. It’s the calmest week with all my needs taken care of. It’s a lovely 20 minute walk (or quick cheap cab ride) from the town centre. I would highly recommend the Grenadine lodge.

This is my second visit here and it’s just as peaceful and relaxing as I remembered. The food is just as good as well. Not only did the management and staff remember me; they greeted me with warm sincerity. I hope to come back one day and stay for longer.

Grenadine Lodge is a lovely peaceful haven with extra friendly staff and clean and spacious rooms. The food is delicious and the well run bar means you can relax with a drink day or night! Activities around Dalyan can be organised at reception and I would recommend the Hamman and the massage service offered. Free bike use makes it easy to get around. I hope to be back soon…..

Just returned from a week long group yoga retreat at Grenadine lodge with Free Spirit yoga. When booking I chose a downstairs room which overlooked the pool with a little terrace, AC was available but wasn’t needed as it was cooler at night. As a group we enjoyed home cooked, communal vegetarian meals which were delicious and plentiful. At the bar by the pool you can order food and drinks at any time during the day and early evening. I can recommend the delicious cheese and courgette toastie!, but there is plenty of choice. The hotel is surrounded by countryside, Orange and pomegranate trees with a backdrop of mountains. It’s about a 20minute walk into Dalyan, if you don’t want to walk, there are bicycles or a taxi will cost around 150 TL. The local bus which stops outside the hotel also goes to the famous Iztuzu beach or you can catch a water taxi in town. It’s my second visit to Dalyan, first to Grenadine Lodge, I can’t wait to return. A big thank you to Aygul and her wonderful team who made our stay so special.
