Boutique Hotels v.s. Small Luxury Hotels

The above terms have now become interchangeable and confusing.  The Luxury Boutiques Hotels market has been so successful that the term has been hijacked by all and sundry and has almost become synonymous with any small pension or offshoot of larger chain hotels wishing to cash in on the market’s success.  Elixir Holidays recognises this and wants to reinvent the brand to signify that Small Luxury Hotels can deliver to the very high end market of the Directors, Consultants and families who know what they want in their service delivery and aim to get it in the best locations in Turkey.

Elixir Holidays has seen the market fluctuate and not necessarily in the right direction.  We aim to maintain or even to exceed the normal high standards our clients set for us, ever watchful and mindful that we are living up to the expectations we set ourselves.

Small Luxury Hotels offer so much to Elixir Holidays’ clients and we keep striving to identify the best along the Kas, Kalkan and Bodrum areas of Turkey.  The Peninsula Gardens Hotel is a new-look luxury sanctuary.  Situated on the Kas Peninsula you can lounge around all day in blissful serenity or use it as a base for timely exploration of all that is historical in its surrounds.  Each of its 18 rooms represents understated luxury, romance and privacy with its own terrace and private plunge pool.  Kas Peninsula Gardens is stunning, intimate and luxurious.  It is featured in our 2011/12 Turkish Collection Brochure.  The infinity outdoor pool with its curvaceous contours and wave machine is available for the odd occasion that the child in you may be feeling more energetic.  A languid stroll to the hotel’s very own wellbeing spa with its array of treatments may be the only additional exertion you may want to allow in your day.

Elixir Holidays never stands still and, yet again, it has zoomed past its competition and is creating an absolutely gorgeous nook in Kalkan Resort called Likya Gardens Hotel, a brand new piece of luxury which is situated only 800 meters outside of Kalkan Turkey at the end of the peninsula gardens and almost adjacent to Tas Ev (stone house in Turkish).

This is a truly exclusive residence designed with you in mind; a privileged few will arrive most likely with other smart friends and family to occupy the whole complex.  Set on the secluded edge of Kalkan’s sweeping bay, Likya Gardens is an irresistibly stylish concept boutique hotel or should we just be honest and say, Small Luxury Hotel, with just six suites, all with large private pools.  Of all the Resorts in Turkey, Kalkan is well known for its wide array and quality of the cuisine – admittedly popular with British tourists but has some of the best restaurants outside of Istanbul.  Luxurious Lykia Gardens is set away from the hustle and bustle in an exclusive part of the resort.  Elixir Holidays’ guests are encouraged to take the horse-drawn carriage with driver and amble quietly into the Kalkan Resort.
