We stayed two nights from 2 to 4 September 2010. The villa was a bit hard to find as it is off the main roads hidden in orange plantations, but it was well worth the little detour. The rooms (there are only a few of them) are reasonably sized, comfortable with private bath and aircon, and well appointed. A library,... More

I had stayed at L'Orangeraie for a few days in October 2009. It is such a special place that I came again this May with with my partner. We had booked for a week, but enjoyed L'Orangeraie and the surrounding area so much that we stayed on for an extra 2 days. Nearby Finike is a delightful small town almost... More

We really enjoyed our stay. Gerard and Mireille are perfect hosts and their small hotel is beautiful. I do not understand the reviews re the food. We were only there for 3 nights and enjoyed 3 lovely breakfasts by the fantastic pool which ıncluded cheese, olives fruit, different breads and fantastic home made jams - I would challenge anyone to...

As we pulled into this lovely Villa Portakal in the middle of orange groves, we knew we were in for a special stay. Even the color of the villa and our room evoked citrus.

We came here to enjoy a relaxing few days, but it turned into a dieting boot camp. Food was scarce and if you didn't happen to like the single dish that was on offer, you got nothing. There weren't any other places to eat nearby at night so this meant you went to bed even more hungry than if you... More

We enjoyed our stay very much. The decor is wonderful, and we loved the atmosphere. As vegetarians, we appreciated Gerard´s efforts to create good meals for us. He succeeded, though we ideally would have liked one more course to really fill us up. Vegetarian food can be lighter than meals that include meat, so that would have been ideal. That... More

Even before arriving on site, when discussing with Gerard by mail of your venue, you get a sense of the welcome quality ....You know that you will be pamper ! and that nothing will be a problem . What you still can not imagime, is how good the cooking will be : this is something that you discover during you... More

Gerard and Mireille, 2 frenchies who decided to leave in Turkey 17 years ago, have now opened their house for 3 years to visitors (6 rooms); What a great idea !!! Gerard and Mireille are so nice to make our stay unforgettable; Mireille is a "chef" and deserve a three star restaurant ! Gerard is always willing to recommend tips... More

Small hotel with delightful ambience, excellent service, great food and charming host- utter perfection
