Management issues and host behavior ruined the stay
Pros:

The apartment has several appealing qualities, especially the spacious terrace, which would be wonderful to enjoy in better weather (we visited in January). Each bed room has its own A/C unit. Its excellent location is another strong point, offering easy access to major sights, restaurants, and everyday conveniences. Overall, it serves as a convenient base for exploring Istanbul.

Additional considerations: There are a few practical details future guests may want to keep in mind. The apartment has a two‑level layout because the building was originally designed as two separate units, and this configuration leaves the entryway noticeably cold in the winter. The listing photos appear outdated and need updating, and the sitting area is quite small, comfortably fitting only about four people. Additionally, the bathroom features a non‑western style shower, which may be unfamiliar to some travelers.

Cons:

A number of issues detracted from the stay. The apartment itself was satisfactory, but the management of the unit was significantly lacking. During check‑in, the host suggested canceling the reservation to avoid Booking.com fees, which created an uncomfortable first impression. I declined to ensure both the host and my family continued to maintain Booking.com oversight. There were limited extra blankets and minimal kitchen amenities. The unit only had surface level cleaning and is in need of a deep clean with black mold visible in many window sills. Most concerning, the host entered the apartment twice during the stay, once while we were home and once while we were out. This was very intrusive, even if culturally normal.

**Amendment to original review** I have left the original review above intact for the record. I originally rated this apartment a 5 out of 10, but I have updated the rating to a 1 out of 10 to reflect interactions with the host after my review was submitted. After posting my review, the host contacted me with photos of fabricated damage to appliances that were not in the apartment during my stay. The first photo I attached shows a damaged refrigerator that is clearly not the the same appliance as the fridge in the second photo and in the unit when I stated there. The host stated he would “waive” a 400 EUR damage claim if I removed my original 5/10 review, which is retaliatory and inappropriate. Combined with his earlier suggestion to cancel the booking to avoid Booking.com fees and his unauthorized entry into the apartment while only my children were inside, this post‑stay behavior further underscores the seriousness of the safety and privacy concerns I experienced. I would strongly discourage any traveler from staying here. I have contacted Booking.com to ensure they are aware of the full situation.

Une villa privée exceptionnelle avec une vue imprenable sur la mer
Pros:

Cette spacieuse villa 4+1 offre tout le confort nécessaire pour un séjour parfait. La terrasse privée est idéale pour se détendre tout en profitant de la vue magnifique, et le jacuzzi ainsi que le hammam turc apportent une véritable touche de luxe et de bien-être.
La villa est entièrement privée, impeccablement propre et soigneusement aménagée. Située dans un emplacement touristique idéal, elle se trouve à proximité des principales attractions, des restaurants et des transports, tout en restant calme et paisible.
Parfaite pour les familles ou les groupes à la recherche de confort, d’intimité et d’une expérience haut de gamme. Nous nous y sommes sentis comme chez nous et y reviendrions sans hésiter.

Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr praktisch und der Ausblick auf der Terrasse wunderschön, auch auf die Blaue Moschee.

Cons:

Die Wohnung war (nach deutschem Standard) nicht wirklich sauber, bei den Armaturen im Bad wird durch unzureichende Montage viel Wasser verschwendet, die Küche ist zum Kochen nicht geeignet.

“Private Villa with Sea View & Blue Mosque Panorama
Pros:

An amazing villa with a stunning sea view and a perfect view of the Blue Mosque. The private terrace was our favorite spot to relax. Everything was clean, peaceful, and just steps from the main attractions. Highly recommended!”

Centrally located but the place could use a refresh and a deep clean
Pros:

- location was central to the attractions and quiet
- bed was firm

Cons:

- not clean, on our first day, we found tissue stuck to the toilet seat and leftover food on the nightstand
- the place was way smaller then we anticipated
- the place needs a bit of a refresh, the door's transition strip was broken and kept coming off so we kept tripping over it at night.

luxurious and charming villa
Pros:

The terrace was wonderful. We had a wonderful time. We bought delicious fresh desserts and Turkish delight from the delighturca Turkish delight shop on the back street. Everyone loved it. There are markets and restaurants on the street. It was a clean and hygienic villa. I loved the jacuzzi. The main tourist attractions were a 4-minute walk away. It was a cute villa on a quiet and safe street.
