This pension was the best deal we made while travelling around Turkey. We paid only 30 new Turkish Lira for three persons with breakfast. We achieved this price in Kas as well but the quality was incomparable. We did not get a room; we got a whole little house. Huge fully equipped kitchen with fridge, nice big clean bathroom and great bed with mosquito nets as this area is supposed to have lots of insects.
Patara lies on the shore, where in the past used to be a commercial harbour. The harbour no longer exists but the area is still quite wet and therefore an ideal place for insects. Anyway we did not have problems with the mosquitoes at all.
The pension is run by a middle-aged couple, incredibly nice people who have two sons but neither of them wants to take over the business. So if you wish to stay here make sure you do not postpone it too long. The city, pension itself and brilliant breakfast prepared by "mum" and nice evening talks with the "papa" will ensure you will have a wonderful time here. He will also give you a lift to the beach in the morning. If you are interested in the nearby ruins, the pension has some books in English about them. Papa’s English is quite good; Mum's is struggling a bit, but her friendly approach makes up for it. Credit cards accepted.
