Perfect location
I've stayed here before. Spacious, comfortable rooms facing the sea. Ours was one level up from sea level. Loved the free kayaks. Good restaurant too. Don't expect five star luxury, Simena isn't cheap, but this is one of the best pansiyons.

Surrounded by nature, if you are looking for city comforts this place is not for you, but if you want to be away from city chaos is a perfect place, right on the water, turquoise color sea, available water activities like kayaking, canoeing, boat trips to different coves, sunken city etc. Only certain time of day it gets noises due to boat visitors. There is an ancient castle and Lycian tombs that attract tourists. Our room had a balcony with a beautiful sea view, was comfortable and spacious, the air conditioner works perfectly. Food was good but they can add more varieties in their menu though all the hotels/motels in the area had similar menus. On arriving at Simena, the hotel sent a motor boat to pick us up and we had a lovely boat trip to hotel with no cost. We stayed 3 nights and was hard to say goodbye to beautiful turquoise coast. Hoping to visit again

Like staying with long lost relations, we became a part of the family, the water is the clearest in the Med - Not just the Sunken City but check out the Aquarium... Fresh food, family friendliness, still somewhat of a secret 30yrs after our first visit.

Huzur
Son derece içten ,yardımsever ve samimi bir ortam. Lüx bir tatil hayaliniz oturup kalktıgınız eşyalar ise size göre değil, doga ,sakinlik ve samimiyeti lüx olarak algılayabileceginiz bir tesis. F&B sonderece yeterli, hele hele koşullar dikkate alındıgında zor olanı başarıyorlar. Mehmet,Orcun,Osman ve mutfaktaki kızlar ;tamamı müsteri orientli süper çalısanlar.

Kaleköy zaten başlıbaşına bir tarih ve doğa harikası. Ankh Pansiyon da yıllar içinde kendini çevreye zarar vermeden yenilemiş tertemiz pırıl pırıl samimi bir işletme olarak tüm ihtiyaçlarımızı karşıladı. Personel ilgili, çok yardımcı oldu. Bir pansiyondan ziyade otel mantığıyla konuklarını mutlu etmek amacıyla faaliyet gösteriyor. Çok memnun kaldık.

Hotel dans un lieu exceptionnel.
Nous avons été agréablement surpris à notre arrivée à Ucagiz car notre hôtel n'était accessible que par la mer. Il va fallu laisser la voiture au village d'Ucagiz et contacter la pension afin que quelqu'un vienne nous chercher avec nos bagages. Cette entrée en matière était une bonne surprise car la pension Anhk située dans le petit village de Kalekoy, dominé par une forteresse croisée est vraiment charmant et même s'il reste une étape des croisières journalières, le soir venu le calme revient, rythmé uniquement par le passage de quelques bateaux.
En outre le village de Kalekoy s'est spécialisé dans la fabrication d'excellentes crèmes glacées avec des parfums peu courants.
Le petit-déjeuner, agrémenté de crêpes, est très sympa servi par une équipe efficace.
Un endroit qui mérite d'y passer plusieurs nuits. Le seul point negatif est le prix des chambres qui est surévalué par rapport au côté un peu fruste du logement, mais heureusement le décor naturel fait rapidement oublier ces contingences matérielles.

Sessiz ve eşsiz bir konaklama yaşadık.

An experience, not just a hotel
This is a lovely family run hotel in the most spectacular position on the waterfront. Each room has a private seating area with a view of the sea and the islands and there is a sunbathing area next to the water from where you can swim.
My adult daughter and I had a great time, swimming, sunbathing and taking a boat trip to see the Sunken City.
We ate at the hotel in the evenings while watching the beautiful sunsets.
The food was excellent, and the home made ice cream especially worth a mention.
