Visiting Büyükada in April is like taking a short break from the hustle and bustle of the city and immersing yourself in the tranquil atmosphere of the island. Walking through the historic stone streets, passing by old mansions, cats, and flower-filled balconies is a unique pleasure. It's as if time has stood still, but the beautiful details are still there. Seeing the Greek Orphanage from afar leaves a feeling of sadness and admiration in one's heart. At the Islands Museum, it is almost impossible not to immerse yourself in the island's past. Mimoza Büyükada Hotel is my source of peace after all these discoveries. It is located just a 3-4 minute walk from the pier, in a small and charming village street. The rooms are spacious and airy, with every detail carefully thought out. The wooden textures on the ceilings and the works of art on the walls add a special warmth to the rooms.

Before going to the rooms, you need to see the lobby; the high-ceilinged area and one side completely transformed into glass enchant you even before you enter the room.

In fact, there are even regular guests who come just for the breakfast.

You can only escape the magic of this place, where you feel as if you are in a period film, by blending into Ayvalık nights and enjoying fish at a long table.
İncirli Ev Hotel, Alaçatı
Alaçatı is beautiful in every season, summer or winter. Whenever I pack my suitcase, I see streets decorated with bougainvillea, the blue sea, and the bright sky. As I walk down these streets, when I enter the garden of İncirli Ev Hotel, I feel as if I have come home. The peaceful atmosphere and the warm, sincere owners play a big role in this feeling. The hotel has been restored to its original state as an old Greek house. The scent of the seven-leaf trees, lemon, almond, and mandarin orange trees in the front courtyard mixes with the clean scent of soap, creating a unique atmosphere in the garden. The 150-year-old fig tree that gives the hotel its name shades the courtyard and stands as a silent witness to the past. The İncirli Ev Hotel has a total of eight rooms, each one unique. The furniture is nostalgic in style, and the bathrooms are spacious and airy. Honeymoon couples prefer the white room, while the terrace room and blue room are favorites among regular guests. In winter, all rooms have fireplaces, offering a romantic and warm atmosphere. Breakfasts, featuring jams made by the hosts, cheese pancakes, herb and lentil pastries, crispy pastries, and freshly brewed tea, turn into a feast.

Nişanyan Houses, Şirince
On our journey along the Aegean coast, before reaching Selçuk, we leave behind the old castle perched on the hill and head for the peaceful streets of Şirince. Driving through olive groves and peach trees in bloom, heralding the arrival of spring, lightens the spirit. With soft music playing in the background and our dreams of wine tasting, we arrive in Şirince. One of the most special spots in this village nestled on a green hillside is Nişanyan Houses. Its 30-acre estate, surrounded by vineyards and olive trees, offers such peace and tranquility that one feels at one with nature and the sincerity of the village. We are welcomed with elderberry syrup by the marble pool. After settling into our room, Köşk 5, we head to the terrace; Müjde's black mulberry gin and tonic before dinner, combined with the view, makes for an unforgettable moment. The evening menu includes olive oil appetizers, risotto, falafel, and hot topiks for vegans and vegetarians. Everything is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate. Even the small details in the rooms have been carefully thought out, with ecological and nature-friendly products used in the shampoo and shower gels. This mix of guests, villagers, and travelers gives the place a unique vibe. The next morning, after breakfast, we leave the hotel and wander around the winding, rocky streets of the village. The 19th-century St. John the Baptist Church, Judas trees, and charming shops and eateries offer a different beauty with every step you take in Sirince. Every moment you spend here allows you to form a warm connection with nature, history, and the people of the village.
