Welcome To Melisa Pansiyon in Faralya Turkey

“Melisa Pansiyon” is a bed and breakfast guest house (and a small campsite) with family atmosphere in the village of Faralya, 20 km from Fethiye. The guest house lies directly on the long trekking path “Lykian Way” above the famous Butterfly Valley (Kelebekler Vadisi). Nearby you’ll find wonderful bays for swimming in clear water. The guest house is open all year.

The owner of the guest house, Mehmet Bey, was born in Faralya and grew up there. Already during high school in Fethiye Mehmet started working in a restaurant in Ölüdeniz. Later he took lectures in Tax Law. at the Izmir University. Mehmet’s parents are farmers who live also in the village of Faralya. Mehmet has six sisters and one brother. When they were young all of them had to help their parents during summer holiday. At this time the village had no paved roads.

Together with his partner Elisabeth from Vienna Mehmet started building their house with guest rooms in 1990. The house has 5 guest rooms (accomodating up to 15 person in total) , all with shower and toilet, Most rooms have air condition and there are two open bungalows on the roof. We offer our guests a cosy common living room with an open fire place and a separate kitchen for preparing their own meals. The house is surrounded by an organic farmer’s garden with many different fruits and vegetables. You are welcome also with your tent at our site.
