Batihan Vadi Hotel

Wow! What a truly magnificent place! We chose Batihan Vadi Hotel for our honeymoon location, we thought it was going to be too good to be true! But thankfully we were wrong! It’s such an amazing and magical place. From the moment the security gate opened we were mesmerised by the beautiful location and atmosphere. We arrived late evening(in the dark) the reception staff were friendly and arranged for us to have a shuttle to our villa, a quick show around then shuttled us to the restaurant who kindly served us a delicious soup and pizza. We walked back to our villa admiring the beautifully lit pathway and silhouette of the hills either side of the valley, along with the chorus of crickets! Waking up the following day in the beautiful premium villa(44) we couldn’t believe how lucky we were and how truly wonderful Batihan Vadi is! The villas are modern, beautifully furnished with various lighting controls, air con, electric blinds, 2 x fridges (mini bar included with all inclusive option) nespresso machine, good quality hairdryers in both bathrooms. Robes, slippers and a variety of extras. Outside is the icing on the cake! The private pool, whirl bath and garden! The pool was great(be aware it isn’t heated unless you ask and there may be a charge for this) we braved the cool water as it was refreshing in the 30 degree sun ( be aware that as it’s a valley the sun does set early and temperatures feel cooler) However The whirl bath has hot and cold taps and makes for a beautiful place to sit with your partner and just watch the stars in the night sky! The garden contains olive trees and a lovely seating area, private gates which can be locked. The housekeeping ladies were lovely and checked what we wanted every day in a kind and courteous manner. The hotel itself is truly wonderful but what makes it even more enjoyable, is the friendly and attentive staff! They were all so welcoming to us both! They knew it was our honeymoon and made us feel so special. Ozzy went out of his way to make our dining experience first class! He made us feel that nothing was too much! Introduced us to some of Turkish specialties, both in food and alcohol! Every morning the breakfast team (all amazing we just don’t know how to spell their names) welcomed us into O’garden ready for our breakfast experience (it truly was an experience!) Turkish breakfast was delicious, a multitude of culinary delights, savoury and sweet, hot and cold. Most mornings we just sat grazing through the food and realised we’d been there almost 2 hours! Evening meals in O’garden we relaxed and staff welcoming and had light hearted banter with us both. On 2 occasions we dined in radika where ozzy served us, it was a very relaxed and indulgent evening on both occasions. The food was delicious in all the restaurants including the bar rodoflo, patisserie, ice cream bar etc. The spa and gym staff are helpful, friendly, they managed to fit us in for a massage on our check out day and they were amazing! . The beach shuttle offered by the hotel, transports you to the sister hotel Batihan beach resort. All inclusive is available here also, the beach has a lot of sun loungers and areas for swimming directly in front of the sister hotel. (If you are expecting a private beach cove, this is not it!) we enjoyed ourselves and spent a day relaxing on the priority loungers and swimming in the sea. The whole environment at Batihan Vadi is relaxed, from our point of view was just perfect! We honestly had the most wonderful honeymoon and very much hope to visit again next year!

I ll never visit this place again. Calm and quiet with the nature yes but, how can you manipulate us about writing comment? Unacceptable. I think we deserve respect to our personal spaces as your guest. But couldnt feel it. Please improve your services, and dont manipulate us. Thanks everyone who did their best for our vacation there, but please be more respectful.

Where do I start with Batihan Vadi Hotel It is a hotel with a different concept than the normal. It is like a little oasis of total calm and quiet, so if you’re looking to escape from the stress and strain of everyday life and need to totally recharge your batteries this place would suit. Villas are lovely well spaced apart and very private being surrounded by a good sized garden with many fruit trees, good size pool, jacuzzi bath, outdoor shower, cabana and decent terrace with loungers and table and chairs. There is no communal pool at this hotel, so everyone stays at their villa and spends all their time there. The villas are spread out over the hotel site and are surrounded by lovely lawns and gardens which are home to peacocks, ducks, Guinea fowl etc and connected by pathways which you can walk or be transported by buggy. There are two restaurants O Garden which does breakfast/lunch/dinner and Radika which you can book the day before for dinner (it has a smaller menu) both waiter service. Food in both are very good and we enjoyed every meal we had. Two of the waiters that we must mention are Soni and Ozzie who were exceptional, very polite, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I do hope the management appreciate them both and in our opinion the restaurants would benefit them both being given a senior role as the only let down was sometimes the organization and timings of courses weren’t quite right and we feel a little extra training with better organization would help, and think Soni and Ozzie are the two people that could improve this. This is by no means a complaint as all staff are good however a suggestion. We must say all staff are very friendly and will go out of their way ensure you are happy, a credit to the hotel. We tried mini golf and archery while we were there and enjoyed. If you have chance we highly recommend using the spa for treatment packages we had excellent treatments and Turkish Hammam, staff all excellent. We did not use the gym but had a look in and it was impressive with new hi tec equipment. Our villa was cleaned and mini bar stocked everyday, thanks to cleaning staff etc. The only other suggestion we would make would be a little refurb in the Rodolfo bar especially the cushions on the chairs. Other things the hotel provides is a small patisserie, small ice cream stall, small shop, childrens area with soft play and other stuff, couple of stalls selling jewelers, crafts etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay came away feeling relaxed and refreshed. Thank you
