Liya Boutique Hotel & Suites / Villa Yonca in Ula/Muğla, open JuneOctober.

Guests arrive at this boutique hotel in Akyaka's quietest corner and immediately sense the difference—whitewashed suites overlook the Aegean, staff anticipate every need, and the property's 12 individually designed rooms set an intimate tone for celebrations.

Villa Yonca's terrace becomes your ceremony backdrop, with the sea as your witness and the Muğla coastline as your only competition.

Dinners here linger into evening under stars, with locally sourced menus and staff who treat your guests like returning family.

We stayed here a couple of nights and had an amazing experience. The rooms are super clean and comfortable and the staff is some of the friendliest people we've met. Which is saying a lot, given how friendly everyone in Turkey is in general. Would stay here again and recommend to others!

07 · Questions

Asked along the way.

Can the hotel accommodate our entire guest list overnight?+

With 12 suites, the hotel rooms directly house up to 24 guests; additional attendees book nearby partner properties in Akyaka within 5 minutes' drive. Many couples use this as an advantage—guests mingle at the central venue but enjoy village exploration and dining options.

What's included in the wedding package?+

Venue rental, accommodation for wedding party, kitchen facilities, and event coordination are standard. Catering, décor, and entertainment are customizable. Contact the hotel directly at the website for exact pricing tiers based on guest count and season.

Is this venue suitable for small, intimate ceremonies?+

Yes. The 20-guest minimum allows elopements or micro-weddings on the terrace. The private setting and villa atmosphere actually enhance small gatherings more than large ones.

What's the best season to marry here?+

April–May and September–November offer perfect temperatures (68–77°F) and calm seas. July–August can exceed 90°F. Winter is mild but less predictable for seaside events.

How far is the nearest airport?+

Dalaman International Airport is 90km away (90 minutes by car). Istanbul airports are 8+ hours; most guests fly into Dalaman for convenience.
