Family-friendly vacation rentals in Yalova

On the booking you may see many pictures of a very modern apartment, some of the pictures show large modern areas but this is slightly misleading. The pictures are of every room available, in the building and are not a reflection of what you are booking privately entirely. This caused some confusion for me when I arrived. The apartment does have a Hamam which was so much fun! Malik is a very friendly and hospitable host. There is somebody at reception 24 hours and they are always more than happy to help you with directions. Advice and suggestions all being very fair and without bias. Our apartment faced the road on the hill which is constantly blocked with traffic even through the night cars beep at each other constantly. Light sleepers may need to bring some earplugs with them. I had to wear my earphones to block out the noise a little bit. We had trouble with the electric box making a loud humming noise on the last night which kept us awake. The bathroom has seen better days.

A very nice and cozy apartment with everything you might need. It’s close the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, the reception offers a lovely bonus—tea, coffee and small snacks. The staff is helpful and friendly. Thank you 🤗

이스탄불에 다시 오면 또 묵고 싶습니다 감사합니다:)

Vielen lieben Dank Ali! Es hat alles super gepasst, wir kommen gerne wieder!

Потрясающее место. Очень чистое и уютное, персонал приветлевый и вежливый. Отдельно советую пообщаться с управляющим - Эролом, ответит на все ваши вопросы и порекомендует места и рестораны для посещения (рекомендую посетить все кафе/рестораны, что он предлагает - не пожалеете). Бесплатно предоставляют хорошую сауну, есть выход на крышу с оболденным видом, есть закрытая зона в холодную погоду и открытая в тепло. Номера большие, с новой мебелью и уютным интерьером. Крайне рекомендую, остались супер положительные эмоции от посещения.

This was an excellent find. We visited from America and were a little worries about finding our way around but Yusef offered to assist in the transfer to and from the airport. The manager, Erol, and the team, Malik and Emir, were all so great. They helped us find places to experience, to eat, to avoid, and showed extreme hospitality towards us the whole time. I would absolutely recommend this place! It’s safe, staffed 24/7, and so cute and quaint in a great location! Thank you!! I sure hope we’ll be back in the future!!

I had an amazing stay! The host was incredibly welcoming and the place is fantastic—just a short walk from the Grand Bazaar. The neighborhood is super friendly, and I loved chatting with the locals. Don’t miss checking out Deco Turca and Cashmere by Ruby for some unique souvenirs. Highly recommend this spot!

we had to re-book our accommodation in istanbul last minute, since the place we originally booked on Booking turned out horrible… we ended up having an amazing short stay at this accommodation and were very pleased with everything! thank you!

The place was fantastic! Great location, very cozy, conveniently located, close to all that Balat has to offer. Ișil, was amazing 👏! she met us on the first day, did a detailed walk through of the space, showed us around the neighborhood, and was available for any of our questions while we stayed at her gorgeous space. she even helped us with unstanding local transportation. Would absolutely stay again. Communication was second to none. Thank you, thank you!

Квартира красивая, соответствует описанию, хорошее расположение. Из незначительных минусов: диван в пятнах, и не хватило розеток (у кровати только с одной стороны). Все остальное отлично. Не сразу удалось найти дом (по адресу в картах показывал другой дом), но хозяин оперативно ответил и был на связи.

Im ersten Moment war ich etwas enttäuscht, weil das Zimmer kleiner ist als es durch die Weitwinkelaufnahme in der Annonce erscheint. Das war aber schnell vergessen, weil das Zimmer trotzdem gemütlich und sauber ist, Filiz unglaublich nett und hilfsbereit, die Gegend sehr ruhig und trotzdem nah an tollen Restaurants und den Höhepunkten des historischen Istanbuls. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt und sollten wir nochmals nach Istanbul reisen, würden wir ganz sicher wieder bei Filiz anfragen.

Myself and two friends had an amazing time staying at Taylans place in April. Really liked the decor of the place. Absolutely loved being on the balcony. We accidentally locked the key in the apartment and Taylan responded immediately and sorted the situation out. Also a great location in the heart of beyoğlu. Thank you for having us Taylan!

Home away from home, great hosts !

This is the perfect spot for a city break to Istanbul, perfectly located by Galata Tower and offering beautiful views over the tower. While a studio, the apartment feels spacious and has a comfortable double bed, sofa, two dining tables, kitchen area and a bathroom with shower (super strong water pressure which was a lovely surprise!). Eyo and his co-host Ali were extremely helpful and responsive in the run up to our stay, providing recommendations and offering to book tours for us if we'd like. Check in was simple - Eyo or Ali will meet you at the apartment to provide the keys. Really great value for money and would recommend this apartment to anyone. I really recommend Galata as an area - you are in walking distance to so many sights (10/15min walk down to Galata Bridge, from which you enter Sultanahmet).

Ozkan, it was a pleasure to stay at Your studio. Balat is truly amazing and vivid, hippie and oldfashioned, quiet and noisy at the same time. Our visit will be in our memories for a long time, and we surely will come back. We felt in love with turkish hospitality and kidness and we wish to explore more&more. Thank You and hope to see You one day! Prace&love Ola&Piotr

كان منزلا رائعا .. موقعه قريب من الترام صعودا .. تعامل الاستاذ محمد مميز وساعدنا في كثير من الأمور اختيار جميل في اسطنبول وسعر مناسب

Great stay. The apartment was exactly what we needed for 3 people, clean, well equipped and had all the amenities we were looking for. The apartment was as described, heating was even turned on for our arrival which was a nice touch! Communication all the way through was fantastic. The only thing I would mention about the location is that it is lively outside. And the pool was a bit cold in the mornings. Apart from that it was perfect, would stay again!

We had the absolute BEST time staying at this wonderful cabin! It was the perfect getaway for me and my family — cozy, peaceful, and beautifully maintained. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The cabin had everything we needed and more — thoughtful touches, super comfortable beds, a well-equipped kitchen, and stunning surroundings that made it easy to relax and unwind. The host was incredibly responsive and welcoming, making sure we had all the information we needed for a smooth and enjoyable stay. We spent our days exploring the area and our evenings gathered around the fire, making memories we’ll cherish for a long time. If you’re looking for the perfect mix of comfort, charm, and nature, this is the place! We can’t wait to come back. Highly, highly recommend!

Всичко беше добре, мястото е близо до площада Таксим и до спиркапза градския транспорт. Имаше всички необходими уреди в кухнята. Единственото, което не ми хареса е че мебелите бяха захабени и имаха петна. Едно освежаване на апартамента би било добре. Иначе всичко друго беше идеално. Комуникацията с хоста беше изключително лесна.

Çok temiz bir ev güzel bir manzarası da var. Sadece giderken alışverişlerinizi tam yapmanız önemli ada merkezine yürüyüş mesafesi birazcık fazla.

Me and my family had a great short vacation in the apartment hotel. The apartment has everything you need to spend a few days there. The pool and the public space is very nice. But the thing that really impressed us was the view from the balcony. It's hard to tear yourself away from the view of the sea and evening Istanbul.

I liked the house , the view , the pool , not very far from island center you can walk or reach it by bus , the kitchen stuff is limited, very peaceful very quiet , the pool is often empty, you feel free I did not feel disturbed or interfered by the hotel owners during my visit , they helped us with the grill stuff and to transfer our bags from their office to the house . And the house was well clean , equipped , I highly recommend it ✅✅✅

We spent a very pleasant time here and left great memories. The landlord is super good and has been helping us all along
