Aravan Evi

Ayvali

Very nice place. We stayed there in April 2024 and they organized also our private tour in Cappadocia. They are very kind and available to help the client. 
The atmosphere is relaxing and the restaurant is very good. 

Okan is really a good driver and a perfect guide for your experience.

Perfect experience

The best treatment. Ever. Loved the personal touch and the wonderful home made food. 
I cant ever forget how Okan and his mother made this a memorable stay for us. Highly highly recommend for the comfort, food and just a homely experience. 
I even packed organic honey from Okan's home on the way back :)

Most amazing and comfortable stay

By luck I stumbled upon the charming, peaceful and beautiful Aravan Evi, which is in Ayvali, a small farming village in Cappdocia.
There are only 3 rooms of which we stayed in the family suite which was beatifully decorated, clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay.  Okan and his Family were incredible hosts who made us feel like we were part of the family. Okan's mother makes all the meals with oragnic produce that comes from their farm - some of the best food we had on our trip in Turkey! The brekfast was HUGE and so delicous! Okan speaks impeccable english, gave us so many tips and advice on exploring the area and can organise just about anything you need for your stay and explorations of the region ( and more regions in Turkey)

You are missing out on a truely authentic experience if you don't stay at Aravan Evi.  We are so pleased we chose to stay here instead of Goreme.

Ayvali village may seem a little further away from the main centres but its only 10 minutes from Urgup and  a short ride away from the main attractions and touristy areas. 

Heaven in Cappdocia

Somehow I lucked into finding this oasis in Cappadocia.  This being My first time in Cap, I was skeptical about staying away from the tourist hot spots, but so glad I did! 
This small, serene, intimate guest house in a tiny farming village seems another world, but it is just minutes from all the major sites of Cappadocia.  Okan, the owner,  and his family are incredibly accommodating. They have airport pickup, can drive you anywhere (cheaper than renting your own car), give great local advice, and are just so kind and friendly.  AND they have the best breakfasts and dinners I had in my 4 weeks in Turkey!  Most of it from their own farm fields. So fresh and tasteful. 
Okan speaks excellent English and was so helpful in showing me  the well known sites,  but moreso showing me the out of the way caves, churches and walks (mostly empty!) not far away. And he knows great shopping spots off the main venues.  

Cappadocia can be rather busy.  Aravan  Evi is the perfect retreat and the perfect 
 spot to start the day and end in peace and quiet and deliciousness! 

I stayed a week and would love to return again!

An unusual and special find !

Surely the best stay during my stay in Turkey. We stayed here for three nights. Clean, beautiful, regenerative. Silence envelops you. Great breakfast only with your own garden produce, so abundant that you don't eat lunch. Only three rooms, including a suite. The house is in stone, beautiful, careful service. The son organizes crazy excursions. One morning he took us very early to a secret and suggestive corner to photograph the butterflies.

5 stars.

The attractive little hotel was an ideal starting point for our hiking group. We felt comfortable in the family business run by Okan right away. The rooms are not only beautiful and very clean, but also appropriately furnished, with a generous bathroom. The host's mother processes vegetables and fruits from her own garden in the kitchen. We ate excellent, the service was impeccable. On the terrace with a view, you could relax wonderfully. Highly recommended!

Ideal place to stay away from the hustle and bustle

We stayed at this lovely little hotel 5 nights in the middle of September. It has only three rooms, which together with Okan’s and his parents generous hosptality gave the feeling of staying in their home. The room was very nice and beautiful decorated in the local style. Okan’s mother Nurhayat made the most delicious food we have ever tasted. Many of the ingredients came from the family garden as we visited a late afternoon at the time for sunset. We ate a simple meal with bread and vegetables from the garden together with Okan and listened to the prayer call that sounded over the peaceful and very friendly village. It was a moment of tranquility and great beauty. During the days we were there we made excursions in the surroundings together with Okan or his father Yousuef. The landscape of Cappadocia is really very amazing and a great experince to explore. Thank you so much for making our stay a memory for life.

A wonderful place with an amazing hospitality

We stayed in this authentic and typical hotel restaurant for 8 days. The hosts were extremely kind and the welcome very warmful. The atmosphere there, is definitely relaxed and calm with a perfect view over the pebble valley, perfect for holidays or for a break. The hotel was well situated, near important cities such as Ürgüp or Göreme. We were definitely delighted when we had the first breakfast, fresh fruits and vegetables from their garden and in large quantities. Our hosts informed us about typical places not to be missed as well as they helped us with our visit schedule.
If I can give you a piece of advice, it would be : do not leave Cappadocia without having been to Aravan Evi.

An authentic and typically Cappadocian hotel restaurant !

We stayed in this admirable human-sized hotel. This establishment welcomes its visitors in a comfortable and authentic setting. Our room for 3 adults was spacious, beautifully decorated. Its location in a small village near Urgüp immersed us in the heart of the Cappadocia. Our guests were especially attentive to our needs and OKAN helped us well in building our visiting schedule.

A genuine and exceptional stay.

My words aren't enough to describe how beautiful and charming Aravan Evi is. You have to experience it for yourself! Most would prefer to stay in a cave hotel with a view of the hot air balloon and chimneys. But for me, this is the perfect escapade for that quiet stay in a village, away from tourist crowd.

The rooms are exquisitely decorated and tastefully done up, to every little detail. It was so perfect that we wished we could stay there for another night (or more!). We had the most amazing and comfortable stay at this family-run hotel with just 3 rooms. 

With Okan's and his family's hospitality, there wasn't a day that we felt like strangers or visitors. Okan's mum, Nurhayat prepared delicious homemade breakfast and dinner for us, that we wished we could just bring them home to Singapore. She even packed some fruits for us for the long roadtrip. All ingredients are from their very own garden! After tasting homemade jam, every jam spread on our breads at other hotels seemed to fail in comparison :) I can't recall how many times I said to Okan, we miss your home and mama's food! 

Thank you for opening your doors and letting us be part of the family. We can never be thankful enough for you and family's kindness, generosity and hospitality. Be prepared cos we will definitely be back. This time a visit to your garden, a proper family photo and I am definitely going to be your mama's assistant in the kitchen! :)
