Bellevue is wonderful hotel run by lovely people. It boasts a superb location with sumptuous views of Olu Deniz, from a slightly elevated position on its own on the right of the valley as you travel down from Hisaronu/Fethiye. It has a fabulous, clean, deep, decent-sized swimming pool. Bedrooms are good-sized (my son and I shared, he had the double and I slept on the sofa bed, which was perfectly comfortable). Most importantly, the bedroom had aircon - we travelled in early September and it was 35C peak every day. We had a good-sized bathroom, and a sea view, with two balconies from which to enjoy it. Breakfast was provided and it is traditional Turkish, buffet food, plenty of fresh fruit, bread, olives, boiled eggs, coffee etc. Don't expect English food - you are in Turkey! The bar is open 24 hours a day which is more than enough even for a beer fanatic like me. We kept the utterly charming bar staff busy restocking the Efes fridge shelf. I cannot overstate how lovely the staff here are. They aren't related to each other but there is a family ethos. I didn't just enjoy great service, but also interesting, varied conversation and loads of laughs. I was genuinely sad saying goodbye to them all when we had to leave. The walk into town and back is a challenge - it's uphill on the way back and it's hot in Olu Deniz! There are no pavements so you need to keep your wits about you, and be reasonably fit - but if you aren't, you should still stay here. Taxis are cheap or you can get the regular "dolmus" (minibus/taxi).. My son and I walked every evening and some daytimes into town and coped fine, and I'm a portly 50yo, so y'know. It's doable. We had a hire car and used it to explore the area. We swam a lot, ate some fantastic food and went paragliding (one of the best experiences of my life). But the hotel is what made this the best holiday I've ever had. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
