Hisaronu, Dalaman Area, Turkey
Hisaronu sits on a mountain plateau just above Olu Deniz, so you get cooler evenings and big-sky views over pine forests and rolling hills. Olive Tree Studios is tucked on a quiet side road, giving you a peaceful base within walking distance of bars, restaurants and shops in the centre.
By day, it’s easy to hop on a dolmus to the famous Blue Lagoon, Fethiye’s harbour or surrounding villages. By night, you can dip into Hisaronu’s lively, neon-lit strip and then wander back to the calm of this adults-only retreat.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The outdoor freshwater pool is the focal point of Olive Tree Studios – a lovely, stone-framed rectangle edged with sunbeds and parasols, surrounded by trees and flowering plants. It has a peaceful, adults-only vibe, so it’s easy to find a quiet spot with a book. Inflatables are permitted and complimentary pool towels are provided, saving suitcase space.
There’s no on-site beach, but you’re just a short ride from Olu Deniz’s iconic crescent of sand and shingle and the sheltered Blue Lagoon, where you’ll find beach clubs, water sports and plenty of sunbeds for hire.
Spa, sports & wellness
This is a small, boutique-style retreat designed for unwinding rather than high-octane resort activity. There’s no dedicated gym or spa, but the relaxed atmosphere, mountain air and nearby walking trails deliver their own wellness boost.
On the practical side, a friendly reception team can help with concierge-style services, local recommendations, taxi bookings and excursions, plus currency exchange and luggage storage. Free Wi-Fi is available in the communal areas so you can share sunset snaps or plan your next day’s adventures.
Activities
Olive Tree Studios is all about slow, easy days rather than a hectic entertainment schedule. Typical ways to spend your time include:
?️ Relaxing by the quiet adults-only pool with a book
? Strolling into Hisaronu for shopping, bars and people-watching
?️ Taking a short dolmus ride down to Olu Deniz and the Blue Lagoon
? Booking paragliding from nearby Babadag Mountain for epic views
?️ Joining boat trips to Fethiye’s bays and islands (arranged locally)
Organised daytime or evening entertainment isn’t a core feature here, making it a strong choice if you prefer a low-key, independent style holiday.
Guest services
?️ Small, friendly reception
? Luggage storage for early arrivals/late departures
? Currency exchange
? Concierge-style help with taxis, excursions and local tips
? Free pool towels
? Free Wi-Fi in communal areas
This is a compact, owner-managed property, so expect personal touches and local insight rather than large-hotel formality.
Food & drink
The heart of the property is The Olive Tree Restaurant, an intimate à la carte spot serving a mix of international, British, Turkish and local dishes for breakfast and lunch in season (typically 01 Apr–01 Dec). Expect made-to-order plates rather than mass buffets, with Turkish touches and familiar favourites.
A cosy lounge bar serves local, international and premium drinks plus snacks, ideal for sunset cocktails or a relaxed nightcap after exploring Hisaronu. Beachwear isn’t permitted inside, and smart-casual dress is appreciated in the evenings.
Board choices include generous Turkish-style Bed & Breakfast (with some English options) or Half Board if you prefer to dine mostly on site. Availability, opening times and any supplements can vary by season and board basis.
