Couldn’t get a drink nobody around waited over ten minutes. Staff spoke no English we were leaving early morning no breakfast available. Did have dinner which was good. It should have had a shuttle service to airport but didn’t. Said it was 15 minutes from airport actually 30. WI FI hit and miss. It’s more of a retreat than a hotel.

Wonderful and idyllic location a few kilometres from the pretty small town of Gocek.

Dalya Life Hotel is set right in among the forest and has beautiful maintained gardens. It has a charming little stream (complete with rowing boats) and most important has a number of turtles and fish which I fed every day.

The staff are really helpful but unobtrusive ie they don't bother you. They even drove me to a localish beach at a charge much less than a taxi would have cost.

It is a small family business and has the feeling of being part of their home. Really liked the menu.

I'd particularly recommend visiting in October as temperature was perfect (for me) and also just a handful of people.

I will return and have recommended it to many friends.

This was my second stay here, and I'm still in love with it😍! The nature, gardens, trees, pool, suite, and the amazingly friendly and kind staff were all marvelous!

There are a few things that could use some improvement. Firstly, the shower leaks, so the bathroom floor gets wet after every use. Secondly, while the breakfast was delicious and everything was of top quality, it could be a bit more varied (although I still enjoyed it!😋). Lastly, the Wi-Fi only worked when we were close to the bar and reception area, so there was no internet in our rooms. However, I found this situation to be somewhat good in some instances, as it allowed me to disconnect from the rest of the world, look around, enjoy the beautiful nature, and simply relax

This was such a pretty property and the owner was very kind, but unfortunately I wouldn't return. While the room was fairly clean the sheets were filthy and the one thin, dirty sheet on the bed didn't fit the bed so I ended up sleeping much of the night on a dirty mattress. The TV didn't work and after the staff moved me to another room they then moved me back into the original room when they were able to get one channel to function - although I couldn't turn the TV off and then back on again if I still wanted to get a picture. The shower didn't drain (at all) so I ended up sponging off in the sink. The pool was pretty but far too cold to swim in. My dinner was terrible which made it less upsetting when the owner's dog stole my fish right off the table. I went to bed hungry rather than try and hassle with the situation. Luckily I was only staying one night but might otherwise have checked out early to find a more comfortable location.

Good bang for buck

Spent only a night as I was flying out of DLM kn the early AM. Seemed like a nice place to stay in for longer periods. A wide selection of fruit trees surround the rooms and pool. The place is located 15 min drive from the airport and 10 min drive from the center of food and shopping.

Hidden oasis!

A beautiful hidden gem, initially chosen due to its proximity to Dalaman airport, but we liked it so much we extended our stay. Lush gardens, simple comfortable rooms, nice clean pool, freshly cooked food available all day. Highly recommend for relaxation away from the hordes along the coast!

Turkish idyll

Last minute booking for a week away in the sun and couldn't have wished for anything nicer! Easy drive from the airport and friendly reception on late night arrival. The room at first seemed a little disappointing, however it was really just very traditional Turkish furnishing...the bathroom was very modern, excellent air conditioning and very useful little fridge and kettle. Outside was stunning: fabulous pool, lush gardens and lovely eating/drinking/relaxing places next to the river. Lots of wildlife to watch and a little boat to take a short trip up the river if desired! We just loved it here - maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but certainly somewhere we would return to for total relaxation!

Very pleasant setting

Worth staying here for a night or 2. We arrived in the dark and left before it got light, but, from what we could make out the cabin-style rooms are set in lovely surroundings.
The owner/manager (?) Was extremely helpful and the room was fine and good value. The bathroom was good, with a plentiful shower. There was also A/c and a heater, which we needed as it was cold outside. Room itself was in need of a little tlc - a simple thing like replacing the faded and old fashioned picture above the bed would help. The linen was also rather basic! There was a fridge though, although it didn't seem to be working when we put the sandwiches in we were brought as we had to leave before breakfast was served.
This was a nice place to stay overnight and I think would be a very relaxing environment in which to stay longer

Wish we stayed for longer than 1 night

We only stayed for one night (2 adults and 1 child). However, we immediately wished we could have stayed for longer. I like the hotel concept a lot and agree with the other reviews. My only criticism is that service at dinner was slow. However, I would stay here again and for longer. Recommend!

Fantastic hotel - grounds wonderful

Wonderful hotel and very friendly and helpful staff. Came across hotel by accident - was looking for an overnight close to Dalaman Airport - and so glad we picked Dalya Life. A bit further form the airport than I thought but better for that. The lake with boating and turtles exceptional. Definitely be back

No room at the hotel.

Do not know what Dalya Life was like as we were transferred to another hotel - Mesken - at very short notice as the Dalya Life has overbooked!!! The Mesken was fine but I was not happy with the Dalya Life for the inconvenience. We had booked the hotel through Hotels.com many months previously. No compensation from the hotel.

Very nice, scenic and peaceful Chalet property

you cannot go wrong by booking this place. individual Chalets that give you your own space. Nice setting and amazing landscape maintained to a high standard. Conveniently located between Dalaman and Gocek. just off the D400 highway. you take a immediate right after the M Oil gas station and bear right. Follow that road for about 1.5Km. staff are amazing and friendly. Will go back again!

Lovely oasis surrounded by nature but not perfect

Perfect rural location. So peaceful and relaxing. Room simple with an extremely comfortable bed. Very modern bathroom with huge shower. Clean towels and sheets every other day. Traditional Turkish breakfast with free range eggs provided by the hens on site. Hakan is a perfect host and nothing is too much trouble. Free shuttle into Gocek provided twice a day. Overall a perfect place to stay to appreciate the real Turkey yet just 10 minuties drive away for everything else you might need

Fiyat performans

Bu konuda kendimde yorumlardan yararlandığım için objectif bir yorum yapacam umarım yardımcı olur.
Dalya life 6 gün konakladı ailemle birlikte.
İyi Yanları çalışanlar çok iyi samimi güler yüzlü,temizlik konusunda da iyiler. Doganın içinde havuzu yeterli, havuz bakımlı.huzurlu sakin sessiz bir yer
Kötü yanları, biz excluse evde kaldık odalar çok çok küçük iki kişi yatak odasında yanyana gelemiyor klima salonda vardı yatak odasını pek sogutmadı yetersiz kaldı.odalar camları açmanıza rağmen tuvalet tarafı kokuyordu.kahvaltı acıkcası biraz zayıftı.patates kızartması ücretli.hergün aynı şeyler.
ulaşım olarak heryere uzak ama oraya giren orda konaklamalı gibi bir durumda var.alkollü bir yer biz restorantını hiç kullanmadık.sonuç olarak bir hafta kaldık.çok fazla geldi.1-2gün için tercih edilebilir.
Önerilerim...
Dalya life eski bir tesis biraz bakımsız kalmış.kırılan dökülen parçalar heryerde biraz derlenip toplanabilir.mesela kayığı hersene boyardım ben olsam.çevre düzenlemesine fazla önem verilmeli.misafirlerle kimse ilgilenmiyor herkesin bir işi var onu yapıyor.mesela danışma görevlisi müşterilerle ilgilenip yakın yerler vs vs konularda rehberlik yapabilir. Orayı eğlenceli bir yere çevirebilir.Çay ocağı hiç kapanmamalı saat 24 de kadar misafirler gelip alabilmeli.odalarda mutfak vs hiçbirşey yok.kahvaltı sonrası personel kendisi için içerde çay demliyor bu misafirlerde sunulmalı.

Ağustos ayında konaklamama rağmen klima ihtiyacımız olmadı. Ortam çok güzel yeşillikler içindesiniz. Biz 4 kişilik odada kaldık girişteki yataklar sünger olduğu için çok konforlu değildi ve kahvaltıda tek ara sıcak işiydi. Kahvaltı sade onun dışında ortam temizlik manzara sakinlik güzel. Birde navigasyon gişelere yönlendiriyor ve para ödeyip dönüyorsunuz ödemek istemezseniz dağı dolanıp geliyorsunuz o yolda virajlı tercihinize kalmış

Hayal kırıklığı

Maalesef başı boşluk ve düzensizlik var. Girişte odayı karıştırdılar, sonra çözüldü. Fakat ilgi ve alaka zayıf idi. Diğer taraftan doğası çok güzel. Bir akşam yemeği yedik, beğenmediğimiz için, bir daha yemedik. Kahvaltı çok zayıf. Her gün aynı ürünler çıkıyor.

Öncelikle tam bir fiyat-performans oteli diyebilirim. Ormanın içinde sessiz sakin bir tatil isteyenler için gerçekten çok keyifli. Özellikle çocuklu aileler için geniş alanlar ve güzel bir havuz var. Otelin daha da iyi hale gelmesi için benim bir kaç önerim olacak. İlki kahvaltılarda hergün aynı yiyeceklerin olması. Kahvaltı menüsü kesinlikle geliştirilmeli. İkincisi odalarda çöp kovası perde vs konusunda daha özenli olunabilirse çok daha güzel bir otel deneyimi sunabilir. Bunun dışında tam bir aile ortamı var. Otel sahipleri ve çalışanları gayet ilgililer.

Tecrübeli bir turist olarak tek kelimeyle mükemmel bir tesis demeliyim. Hizmet kalitesi, tesisin doğallığı, güzelliği, bakımı, kahvaltı ve yemeklerin kalitesi gibi her yönüyle harika bir işletme. Hele bir de kahvaltıda sunulan ürünlerin kendi sera, bahçe ve ağaçlarından elde edilen ürünlerle hazırlandığını öğrenince daha da mest olduk.
