What a find. An absolutely immaculate hotel located in a cool little village close to Patara Beach. Outside is a lovely pool and beautifully tended gardens complete with hammocks and lounging areas. The rooms themselves are spotlessly clean, with balconies and nicely maintained bathrooms. The staff were incredible, even arranging to return the keys which we'd inadvertently taken with us from our previous hotel! The thatched bar area makes it really easy to chat to other guests, which gives the whole place a very laid back vibe. There are good eating options in the village about five minutes walk away (brace yourself for the walk back up the hill!) and Patara Beach itself is an easy ten minute drive. We've made some real finds on our travels around Turkiye, but the Golden Lighthouse is genuinely one of the best - definitely try to stay if you're in the area.
Set among fragrant gardens and within walking distance to Patara, Pataros Hotel offers tranquil accommodation with outdoor pool nearby Patara archaeological area.

We have stayed at the Pataros hotel before, several times, and love the fact it hasn't changed. The staff are amazing, as is the food, and it is such a beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.

We had a wonderful stay in Patara ! The host family was very welcoming and caring, with a delicious homemade breakfast in the morning. The hotel is comfortable, quiet and peaceful, and we had a beautiful view of the sea from our room. I only wish we could have stayed longer !

Wonderful hosts. Enjoyed all our meals of home cooking. Clean and bright room with lovely design touches (mirror and rug) and had a balcony overlooking the pool. Bathroom was compact but clean. Location close enough for us to walk in the morning to Patara beach and the antique site (about 2.5km). Free parking on property.
This guest house is in Patara’s centre. It offers a terrace, an outdoor pool and massage services. Free parking and a free shuttle to the beach are available.

Mr Jet, Mrs Fatma and Mr Philip are all so nice and sweet. Very welcoming. The bed was very comfortable, I had a lovely small balcony where I could dry my clothes, and the breakfast in the morning was delicious. Everything from their garden and stock. Thank you!

Visited a couple of times before. Village restaurants not so good as previously. Simbar charging more than in Kalkan for cocktails! Village generally very quiet this time, no buzz, however first time visiting in Sept, which may account for this. Bus timetable not worth publishing as they come when they want and don't always go to the bus station.

Despite its popularity, Patara remains a traditional Turkish village. This is because it is protected for both archaeological and nature reasons. Turtles nest here. We visit regularly. It is all accessible on foot but if it's very hot or you have trouble walking any distance, it is best to get the dolmus to the beach. Yes, you have to pay to enter the beach but this is because it is part of an archaeological site. The beach was very, very crowded on a hot summer weekend (avoid in high season if you don't like crowds) but it is so long it's easy to find space to sit and swim. Patara is very convenient for visits to other sites like Xanthos and Letoon.

Patara must be the one of the most perfect holiday destinations. An enormous, world class beach which means it is never crowded.
In addition you walk past or through the excavated Lycian and Roman ruins of the ancient port city - amazing!
And, of course, the wonderful generosity and good nature of the locals.

The village was small and very chilled with no hassle.
The village was small and very chilled with no hassle. I'm a single Mum and went with my 11 year old daughter and it was such a safe environment. The people were really helpful and friendly. It actually reminded me a bit of Guatemala, bit of a hippy laid back vibe, no McDonalds etc in sight! The beach was amazing, great waves for body boarding and miles of golden sand with only one beach restaurant, so unspoilt! Surrounded by ruins and a laying ground for turtles has ensured Patara beach isn't flooded with shops, beach bars etc, so 10 miles of loveliness. Best beach I've ever been to in Europe easily... Food in Patara is really affordable, booze a bit more (Muslim country) but fine. Some restaurants don't sell booze but plenty do! Spent so much less this holiday than in Greece. I never usually go to the same place twice but would seriously consider returning to Patara. Loved it!
Excellent location, quiet and clean rooms, lovely balcony, good view. good swimming pool. friendly and helpful staff, eg Dennis ran us to the bus stop and gave us suggestions on what to do. The hotel is elevated above the Main Street and nearby developments, and is quieter. We think it was the best place to stay in Patara. In the evening the st Nicolas restaurant ( part of the same family and connected) did great food at good value and was very popular.
We absolutely loved the place and the staff. The owner is such a nice and helpful person, always smiling and trying to do everything to make you feel welcome and enjoy your holiday. The room was very clean and confortable, the garden and the pool were amazing, and in the evening you can relax at the bar area. The breakfast was also very good. Just outside the hotel there are many restaurants and shops. We had a great time here.
It's the centre of the village but anyway it's quite far from the beach and Patara city.
The staff is welcoming and friendly.
Breakfast was nice, there was a variety of dishes, Turkish style breakfast.
There was hot water.
Everything worked in the room.
Perfect place to stay. Very friendly and responsible staff. Great view. Tasty breakfast. Nice pool and green hotel area. Ancient city Patara and Patara beach are not far from the hotel (you have to pay for entrance).
