Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Darıca

we were looking for a peaceful place in Istanbul close to the sea and mountains and forests. This is the best place for this purpose. So we got completely relaxed there. Moreover, the location is very organic- you may buy fresh milk straight from Turkish village citizens, freshly baked Karadeniz bread from the local old lady who is making herself it, you may buy fresh groceries there. Black Sea is 10 minutes away by car. The place is also close to both Asian and European parts of Istanbul. About house- the housekeepers are very helpful and empathetic, whenever you need help, they can do that. We did not know that the house is well-equipped so we brought our dishes, containers, shampoo etc. However, everything was there. Overall, we had amazing experience there with our kids. thanks to this place for that

çok rahat ve temiz bir yerdi, adem bey çok yardımcı oldu ihtiyacımız olan her şey eksiksiz vardı 🙏🏻

Apartments are beautiful, large, and in a great location - we really loved our stay and would absolutely recommend this place to friends! Things to know: the two floors are totally separate apartments; they are pretty anonymous rental flats in terms of what to expect in the kitchen; we experienced some cultural differences around checkout and other communication, but no major issues; the offered airport pickup required that we wait around the airport for about 40 minutes but was otherwise easy

Atakan beye misafirperverliğinden dolayı çok teşekkürler. Arkadaşlarımla beraber harika bir hafta sonu geçirdik. Evin tarihi dokusu girer girmez bizleri mest etti. Havanın kısmen serin olması bahçenin keyfini yeterince çıkaramamıza neden olsada bir dahaki misafirliğimize bırakmış saydık onu da. Her şey için teşekkürler.

Ayşe hanım güzler yüzü ve samimiyetiyle bizi karşıladı. Konum bilgisi sayesinde rahatça evi bulduk. Yavru kedileri çok tatlıydı. Onların sayesinde ne yılan, ne böcek, ne başka bir şeyle karşılaşmadık. Stresimizi aldılar resmen, oğlum Anıl için bulunmaz bir fırsat oldu. Evde her şey düşünülmüş ve tertemizdi. Sakin ve kafa dinlemelik bir ev olmasına rağmen konforunuzdan ödün vermiyorsunuz! Mutfak gereçleri, bulaşık deterjanına kadar düşünülmüştü. Daha önce de farklı evlerde konakladık ama bu kadar düzenli ve temiz bir yerde kalmadık diyebilirim. Evde bilgi notlarına kadar ihtiyacımız olabilecek her şey vardı. Tek eksik, montlarımızı asacak bir askılık bulamayışımız oldu. Bahçe, mangal, veranda, keyfimiz güzeldi, üstelik ev daima sıcacıktı. Yeniden gelmek isteriz. Aracınızı da güvenle park edebileceğiniz bariyerli bir park alanı da mevcut! Kuş sesleriyle ve mis gibi çiçek kokularıyla uyandık, temiz havada uyuduk rahat yataklarda! Havuzu kullanma amacımız olmadığı için ısıtmayı istemedik.

Güzel bir konumda, geniş bir verandası olan bir ev. Fakat derenin çevresine inmek münkün değil, oldukça dik.

herşey fotograflarda ki gibi keyifliydi

Staying at James's place has been wonderful ✨. The apartment is very spacious with beautiful interior and an amazing view overlooking Istanbul. Many sites in walking distance, and the whole neighborhood is vibrating with cute restaurants and shops nearby. James was so friendly and responsive. Would definitely come back!

Tuğkan Bey, gerçekten profesyonel bir ev sahibiydi, oldukça ilgili, her zaman ulaşılabilir ve yardımseverdi. Ev fotoğraflarda göründüğü gibi çok şirindi biz çok sevdik ve çok memnun kaldık. Konaklamanız esnasında ihtiyacınız olabilecek her şey gerçekten incelikle düşünülmüş, yolumuz tekrar İstanbul’a düşerse kesinlikle tekrardan tercih edeceğiz 🐣☺️

It was an amazing stay.the view in the living room was breathtaking in the morning and during the night. everything is available at the apartment. a very great location. You can find whatever you need around it. The only downside is that the elevator does not work so you will have to drag your suitcases up and bring them down. I really enjoyed my stay with my friends.

Apartment was clean modern and looked like the photos. The host was really responsive and helpful. Being able to park in the garage was a plus

Our stay at Menti’s stunning apartment in the heart of Istanbul was pure magic! The place was impeccably clean, beautifully styled with a mix of modern and Turkish charm, and had everything we needed for a perfect trip. Menti was an absolute gem, welcoming us with warm hospitality, helping to organize transport to/from the airport and sharing insider tips on the best local spots. Waking up to the sounds of the city and sipping Turkish tea or raki on the terrace while watching the sunset was pure bliss. This place is a must-stay for anyone visiting Istanbul, and we're already planning our return. Can't recommend this Istanbul treasure enough to anyone exploring this vibrant city! Menti, çok çok teşekkür ederim!

Petit logement propre et fonctionnel idéalement placé pour accéder aux monuments historiques de la vieille ville et aux transports pour filer découvrir le reste. Hôte super accueillant et aidant pour organiser le trajet depuis l'aéroport, adapter le départ etc. Merci !

We had a very nice stay. Volkan replied immediately, gave clear self check-in instructions, and there was always 'staff' nearby who could come to the apartment within 15 minutes if we needed help. When our toilet didn’t flush upon arrival, someone came to fix it right away. When our toilet paper was almost finished, we received new rolls. The apartment is brighter than it appears in the photos, thanks to two street-facing windows. I had feared it would be too dark, but that wasn’t the case. The location (New European Quarter) is great—close to Galata Tower, Taksim Square (full of restaurants and shops), and fancy hotels like the Pera Palace, where Agatha Christie wrote Murder on the Orient Express. Do note that the area is noisy both day and night, and the flat is not well insulated against sound. Streetlights prevent full darkness, even with curtains. Light sleepers may want to bring earplugs and a sleep mask. Bus, metro and train stops are 3-10 min away—leading to the 'Old city'.

Çınar’s place is the Galata area, very convenient for visiting Istanbul. We loved the location. When we arrived, we ran into the host at the entrance and he ended up checking us in personally. He was very friendly and welcoming. The place is like the photos and large for 2 of us. It was clean and comfortable. The view from the roof top terrace is excellent. While it is near the Galata tower, it is quite quiet, while there are a lot of restaurants and shops within minutes of walking. I think it is a very good place to stay when visiting Istanbul, highly recommended. Be prepared to walk uphill and walk up the stairs. There can be a lot in the area and the apartment is on the top floors too. However, it is worth it.

Such an amazing place, the view is incredible. I didn’t want to leave. We stayed for over a week and it was very comfortable, enjoyed every minute of it. Will miss the views from the balcony
