Loca Hill
I’m on the terrace of one of Selimiye’s newest gems, Loca Hill. The place is run by the Balcı family, the warm-hearted folks behind Loca Hotel, which they’ve been operating in the same spot for 12 years. Their beautiful energy is infused into every corner of this new hotel. Perched at the top of Selimiye, the terrace overlooks a breathtaking sea view that stretches endlessly.
🌿 When this lovely ambiance is paired with such sweetness, you can’t help but say, “I’m so glad I came.” The 5 o’clock tea is a classic here—enjoy it on the terrace or by the pool, wherever you prefer.
🏡 Each of the 7 rooms at @selimiyelocahill is breezy and many offer sea views. The atmosphere is cozy, heartfelt, and simple—this view will lull you to sleep like a lullaby. The rooms are named after local areas of Selimiye—Buruncuk, Sığ Liman, Gemecit, Armutçuk... You’ll find the name of your room on a handmade ceramic door sign crafted by the host.
🥘 Breakfast is served by the pool, under fig and lemon trees in a garden full of olive trees. As the pool’s waterfall cools the air, a spread of happiness arrives at your table. The hot dishes change daily, greens are fresh, jams are homemade, and the olives and olive oil are local.
❤️🔥 I’d say Selimiye is one of the most peaceful, bluest, and most delightful spots in Marmaris. The sea is always calm, like a sheet. The lively and colorful town center is easily accessible with the hotel’s free shuttle service. Just as lovely as your time on land is a boat trip around the coves. ⛵ Take Captain Şener’s “Sılanur 3”, for example…
🍽️ My alternative dining recommendations: #KöşeRestaurant for home-cooked meals, Mehmet’in Yeri in Delikyol Bay, Deniz Restaurant, Rafet Baba in Çiftlik Bay, and don’t miss the cotton candy lemonade at Paprika.
🏊♀️ @selimiyelocahill is just 1 km from the sea. The beach in the center is rocky, while Sığ Liman at the end of Selimiye is sandy and public. For swimming, I highly recommend Delikyol and Çiftlik Bays. While exploring the area, make sure to visit Turgut Waterfall, Bayır Village, and Kız Kumu.
🐶 Unfortunately, it’s not suitable for pets.
And if you say, “I found you through Küçük Oteller and I’m coming on these dates,” you’ll get 10% off your stay.
