Fun Hotel Alternatives for Solo Travelers
Although vacations with our significant other or friends are recorded as the most unforgettable and fun moments of our lives, no one can deny that there are times when everyone wants to be alone. We might feel like walking alone by the sea or in the rain depending on the season. But what if it's autumn? Then, we would want to enjoy a holiday where we can fully indulge ourselves.
For you, the solo travelers, we've researched the most enjoyable boutique and small hotels. Whether you want to spend the day capturing unforgettable photographs, lie sprawled on the beach enjoying the sun and sea, or rediscover historical sites with a backpack and map in hand...
The limits of your imagination are the only limits!
Take a look and see which of our hotels suits you best?
1-Olympos Mountain Lodge - Kemer, Antalya
If you need some unusual time off, let's take you to an untouched nature in Beycik Village within the Beydağları National Park in Antalya. There’s a delightful forest scent wafting from the pines, cedars, and junipers around here. Hidden among these scents and nestled between olive groves, the mountain lodge concept at Olympos Mountain Lodge offers a simple peace that erases the wearing traces of city life! Let's go.
2- Karaca Mountain Houses - Izmit
They are in the forest area but they have evaluated every place very well without harming the nature. The hotel has a common area with two stoves and a fireplace. We loved their glass-fronted area where dinner was served. It was very enjoyable to watch the snow falling in winter from there with a hot coffee in our hands. Of course, if you come in summer, this place has a completely different atmosphere. The swings, hammocks, summer movie theater in the open area in the evenings are very enjoyable.
The @hunnaphan, which gives the definition of a small hotel its rightful place, stands out with the fact that it offers accommodation in different concepts, from modestly decorated rooms to rooms that offer a combination of luxury and comfort with the restoration of 300-year-old historical Greek stone buildings.
Consisting of 4 buildings named Palm, Red House, Blue House, Mansion and 26 rooms, you can either enjoy the pool in the lap of nature surrounded by olive trees, away from the noise, or in the winter months, you can dream by the fireplace whose wood is always burning crispy.
4- Hindiba Nature House - Bolu
Whenever I visit, the tea is fresh and the conversation by the fire pit at night is wonderful.
Come with your children, come with your friends, come with both of you or come alone; the tranquility effect is the same! This place is play for children, exploration for adults and honeymoon for romantics every day.
The prices of Hindiba Nature House vary according to the days of your stay and are priced separately on weekdays and weekends. The price includes open buffet breakfast and vegetarian dinner.
5- Hanımeli Mansion - Taraklı Sakarya
You can start by visiting the historical bazaars and shopping. You can go to Hıdırlık Hill and Hisar Hill. (The water cisterns on Hisar Hill were built in 1.000 BC - 2.000 BC) After visiting the tomb here, you should watch Taraklı from the heights. Taraklı is a district that is also at the forefront with its thermal features. You can visit the clay bath from the Byzantine period and find health.
You can go to the plateaus of Taraklı, plan a nature trip or have a picnic.
This place takes us on a completely different journey of poetry and harmony...For years, Yonca Lodge has been hosting moments that we cannot comprehend with ducks balancing in the still river water, birds soaring in the air, various fruit trees, dreamy maverick ships appearing on the horizon, high-pitched cheerful music coming from the depths, the smell of freshly ground coffee beans and Daniela's wonderful hospitality...
7- Uğurlu Mansions - Kastamonu
A Kastamonu vacation without Uğurlu Konakları (@ugurlukonaklari), where we will stay in the bazaar area of the city, does not create a picture in our souls. The key to everything is in this old mansion (built 1850)
Mrs. Gülseren, the beautiful soulful landlady, has completely restored it with the Hımış building technique. We are staying in the room with a view of #KastamonuKalesi in Uğurlu Konakları, which preserves the ambiance of the old time with its old-time sofas, high-ceiling rooms, load cabinets, local authentic furniture, paintings and hand-woven carpets, dominated by the spirit and integrity of the old. The imposing view of the castle actually reflects the rich past of the city...
Villa Kırkpınar is a facility consisting of villas with private gardens on an area of 25 acres with a cafe, swimming pool, fruit trees, swings, free bicycles.
The villas, where daily cleaning service is provided, are designed as your second home in order to give you a holiday in hotel comfort and home warmth.
Each duplex villa with a large veranda, the number of beds can be increased, equipped kitchen with all the tools to meet all your needs, wi-fi, TV, barbecue, fireplace and air conditioning in every room.
9- Villa Mandarin - Faralya Oludeniz
I have a secluded, personalized recommendation; Mandarin Mango Hotel.
Yestttt... Our hotel is a great place for romantic couples:) They are open from April to November. Accommodation consists of 16 deluxe suites and 2 twin villas with private gardens and pools.
They have a bed and breakfast concept and a five o'clock tea. The rooms are quite spacious, the smallest room is 45 m 2 imagine the spaciousness. Each room has a jacuzzi and fireplace, very cool. Antique items are often used in the decor of the rooms, and curtains that provide real darkness are used in them. Those who want complete privacy are lining up to stay in villas with private pools.
The day starts here with the music of birdsong. It continues with the engine sounds of the boats passing by on the river and the sweet cries of the ducks. In other words, time in Ağva is a therapy and a trip to Ağva is good for everyone.
11- Buyukada Princess Hotel - Buyukada
Büyükada is very crowded on weekends and other holidays. For this reason, we recommend you to stay on weekdays if you have the opportunity. When you come here, you can rent a bicycle, ride a carriage, take a walk in nature or visit tourist attractions such as Hagia Yorgi Church and Monastery.
12- Cunda Esen Hotel - Cunda Island
Although there is sea all around Cunda, there are very few hotels where you can swim in front of the sea. Cunda Esen Hotel is just outside the residential area and on the shore of olive trees. Therefore, you will have a quiet, calm and peaceful vacation. No; If you say I want to spend a crazy holiday with a drink, you can walk 5 minutes to the center of Cunda and have fun as you wish. The existing 30-ton clean water tanks and generators are kept constantly active to protect you from possible mishaps.
Overlooking the magnificent view of the Aegean Sea, neighboring Lesbos and a wonderful garden landscape, the rooms are as spacious as can be, with 30m2, a candidate to break all the records of the neighborhood. Built on 6 acres of land, built with traditional Aegean architecture, surrounded by natural stones and olive trees, Ida Costa Hotel offers a peaceful and comfortable environment by the sea, alone with nature.
And, among many other ruins, we see the magnificent Green Tomb with its inscription intact. During the Ottoman period, it was built with thick brick walls, then covered with marble and decorated with hexagonal tiles. It is one of the most prominent works of history with its richly embroidered gates. Both in the city center and elsewhere in the city, we are enchanted by the images we have never seen before, so spectacular and dazzling, the vibrant green leafy branches of plane trees scattered everywhere.
15- Park Mandalin Hotel - Agva
Our first point in our spring itineraries is Ağva. In our opinion, this is a unique place in terms of the beauty it promises. We greet the hidden natural landscapes along the river, Kilimli Bay, Hacıllı Village and Hacıllı Waterfall. Kilimli Bay has a mesmerizing setting, especially at sunset.
It is already a tradition for us to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets...
If you have a tendency for long nature walks like us, we highly recommend trekking to Hacıllı Waterfall, lost in the greenery!
