Kefi Beach & Suites

Kefi is a beach-hotel-restaurant compound built in front of a thousand-square-metre natural lawn and a long stretch of sand on Yahşi's Blue Flag cove. The kitchen is built on Aegean herb salads, olive-oil-cooked vegetables, stone-oven pide and pizza, with rakı-balık service taking over in the evening. The reed-canopy tables that run to the shore and the wide garden set up the kind of room a family at the beach or a day visitor can stretch into a long lunch; the space also accommodates event setups in season. One of the established, low-key addresses on the Yahşi shore, it is among the safest moves for groups with children and long summer afternoons.
