Ilıca
Italian-leaning Mediterranean kitchen on the cape — pasta, wood-fired pizza and Aegean fish in a room engineered for long sea-view dinners
Ilıca Hotel's open-deck Aegean room overlooking the thermal bay — the resort coast's most assured kitchen
Of the family-summer rooms on the Ilıca coast, Kalama is the one that reads as a proper restaurant rather than a buffet hall. The deck sits over the thermal bay with the long Aegean view, the kitchen runs an Aegean-Mediterranean carte alongside the breakfast spread, and the hotel's olive oil and herb sourcing is taken seriously. It earns a recommendation on its own merits — non-residents are welcome at lunch and dinner.
Book the deck-edge tables for sunset; the à la carte (not the buffet) is the order. The Sunday brunch is the only Ilıca brunch worth crossing town for.
