Narköy Ecologic Hotel & Organic Farm

Pure Magic! It was like we went to a family reunion! They welcomed us, hiked with us, fed us some of the best farm-to-table food we’ve ever had! Beautiful retreat in nature! A whole different Turkey than the hustle and bustle of Istanbul! It was easy to find a driver in Istanbul who took us and picked us up from and back to Istanbul. 2 1/2 hour journey through the countryside for around $100 each way. A magical working farm, simple but very comfortable accommodations. We walked around and ate fruit from the trees and vegetables from the garden. The chef prepared daily, beautiful and tasty meals from whatever is fresh and in season right from the farm! The owners have done miraculous work, banking native seeds, exploring the native medicinal herbs and organic farming. As they kept saying ‘there is no poison! Everything is pure and clean and fresh!’ It’s about a 5 minute drive (they took us in the farm truck!) to The Black Sea, and a nice, groomed beach and marked off swimming area. There are cool places to retreat in the woods. Places to walk, and active farming. The very highest recommendation!
