Cunda Ilios
Dear Small Hotels Visitors, I’m Seçil, and together with my husband Alper, we moved our story, which began in Istanbul, to the Northern Aegean many years ago. After exploring, working, and living in various small towns across the region for years, we found a quiet street with a peaceful garden in Cunda and established Cunda Ilios. Cunda Ilios is a modernized Greek house, originally built in 1861, with its sunny and lush green garden. The name Cunda Ilios was inspired by our daughter Güneş, whose presence and energy surrounds us all. The hotel is ideally located within walking distance to restaurants and shops that you'll enjoy exploring, yet it offers the peaceful and quiet atmosphere that makes it a preferred choice. Our hotel is situated on a street that still reflects the architecture, culture, and neighborly spirit from the days when Turkish and Greek families lived together in harmony. We are located in the heart of Cunda, above the Rahmi Koç Museum and below the Windmill. Cunda Ilios has 7 spacious and thoughtfully decorated rooms, along with a boutique kitchen, waiting for you. Our lovingly prepared homemade breakfast, open kitchen throughout the day, and our evening meze feasts, where we gather around the table, make Ilios and its garden a delightful and unforgettable experience. Our barbecue dinners, where you'll feel as if you're in your own garden, are another highlight. During your stay, you can consult us on anything, from dinner reservations to recommendations on places to visit. We’re here to help with all your needs. We're also happy to prepare surprises for your loved ones in your room or in our garden for your special occasions and all the little details that matter to you. We hope you enjoy your Ayvalık and Cunda vacation, have a peaceful time, and leave with happy memories. With love and greetings, The Cunda Ilios Family
