Ionia House, Ephesus Holiday Rentals

We were four adults and we all loved our three-night stay in this lovely house in Selçuk. The terrace and the swimming pool made us happy, as did the beautiful, quiet rooms. Everything is designed so that you don't miss anything in a well-decorated and bright space. and spacious. Alison respond very quickly and helped me when I had a problem. We didn't want to leave, it was so nice to stay there. Thank you so much Alison!

We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at this property in Selçuk. It is even better than shown in the photographs. There are several flower filled outside areas so you can chase the sun or shade during the day. The view from the high terrace of the citadel, sea and sunset is a highlight and a perfect place to have a drink to round off the day. Inside the house is well designed to give a bright and spacious feel. Everything provided is good quality, comfortable and well maintained. Arranging through Alison to be met and returned to the airport and being able to keep the car during our stay was so worthwhile. We made good use of it to visit all the incredible sights but the property is also within easy walking distance of the town. Alison was an amazing host, prompt in all our communications and very knowledgeable. It was so helpful to arrive to milk, butter, eggs etc and plenty of cleaning products. Having stupidly left my phone at the house she kindly saw to it’s safe return which was so appreciated. Altogether one of best experiences.

Ionia House is one of the best holiday rentals I've stayed in - and we've rented all over Europe for 40 years. Alison has thought of & supplied everything a holidaymaker might need. Plentiful supply of towels, bedding, crockery, cutlery, saucepans etc - all of very good quality. The water cooler was a treat and getting a refill very easy. Alison was very responsive to any queries we had and gave us good advice on taking the train into Izmir. She also helped to arrange car hire for us which included a driver to pick us up at the airport in Izmir, bring us to Ionia House, leave the hire car with us for the 2 weeks and then take us back to the airport at the end of our holiday. This was a wonderful service, given that we were arriving at about 10 p.m. which would've made it very hard for us to find our way in the dark. Ionia House lives up to its photos. The beds were extremely comfortable and the air-con was great. We loved the fact that it is in a 'real' neighbourhood. We were among local people: women sitting in their doorways chatting to each other and children playing in the street. We practised our few Turkish greetings on them, as we came and went, by saying Hello/Good evening etc. in our halting Turkish and they seemed to appreciate it and greeted us in return. We really liked the town of Selçuk and we loved having Ionia House as our 'home' to return to after a day's sightseeing. We can wholeheartedly recommend it & Alison for her helpfulness.

Nice and cozy house, very welcoming.

Having a pool and patio area is great after being in the heat. The house is clean and well maintained and well air conditioned.

Lovely restored traditional property done to a good standard, everything in villa was very good standard, beds, shower kitchen equipment. Lovely unspoilt town with many good restaurants, 15/20 walk but walk back is uphill if you have mobility issues.The villa is in a residential area so can be noisy at times, but didnt bother us. Nice terraces and small pool that was deep do maybe not suitable for small children. Very close to Ephesus that can be reached by dolmus bus. Lots of places to visit and Alison is very helpful and knowledgeable and arranged trips for us.

The most wonderful experience of Turkey. Great town to base your selves in for exploring the area. Day trip to Istanbul is possible, as is a day around the pool, or at the beach. Recommed highly. The house is everything you need and more for the perfect family trip or couples, Alison is one in a million

We have just come back from Ionia House and we had the most wonderful stay. The house is immaculate and has everything you'd need for a very comfortable stay. Alison was there whenever we needed her. Helped us get a car, provisions for when we arrived and organised taxis. We felt very safe there and as usual the Turkish people are very friendly indeed. We would highly recommend this house and Alison. From Billie-Jo and Scott

Dear Alison, now I got the time to say how much we loved to stay at Ionia-House, and how much we enjoyed to meet you! That was the best holiday ever, the house, the location, the weather and your help -- everything just perfect! Our daughter asks often When can we come back?, and we expect to return, it was too good! Thank you for everything, Nicole.

Thank you to Alison for the lovely stay at Ionia House in Selcuk, Turkey! The house is absolutely beautiful, tastefully decorated and in a wonderful location. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, wonderful shower and dependable internet. It was a bit cool for swimming, but the pool is great and a good size. We loved all the potted plants and enjoyed eating all of our meals outside on the patio. We fell in love with Selcuk and the friendly people. The area is perfect for day trips to several other locations, but we were thankful to return to Selcuk each day. It was a wonderful family time together and a trip we will cherish and never forget.
