Dervishan is a little paradise! We stayed there for 7 nights and had a wonderful time! Hani is a great hostess, a very good cook, and a very friendly person to talk to. Unfortunately Stavros was in Greece, so we didn't meet ;-( The pension is located near the river, so every morning we started the day with a nice... More

We just got back from our 7 night stay at the Dervishan Pension...and I am still dreaming about it. As with all the other patrons what made the DP a great place is the excellent treatment by Hani and Stavros. They made us feel like welcomed family and great friends. The food was amazing and a wonderful price. We took... More

The hosts of Dervishan, Hani and Stavros, are the nicest people you can imagine. Not only do they provide a heartfelt welcome and are always available for help and advise, but also run a beautiful place. It is a real paradise, calm, very well situated outside of Dalyan, with a soothing view on the riverside. You can hang out there... More

Unlike many patrons who came to this fine establishment through TA, we made contact with Hani from Dervishan Pension after our friends had stayed there during the previous month. My friend said, "Hani and Stavros are not just great hosts - they are also the nicest people you will ever meet." She also mentioned that I wouldn't be disappointed to... More

After last year’s visit, and after Hani splashed water on our tracks as we left in the Turkish custom to make us return. We actually did came back this year for a fortnight , sept/oct 2012. We got a very warm welcome by the hosts Hani& Stavros, and also the feeling: it felt like home away from home. Among others... More

Everything that you read in the other reviews is true: Hani and Stavros make this a wonderful place to stay and there's a real home-form-home vibe. Hani cooks the most amazing Turkish food every night (except when Stavros is on the BBQ - and you get the freshest tastiest fish). All the guests eat together - you could eat separately... More

It's little paradise just outside the village of Dalyan, 10 min. walk by the river, 30 min. by boat from the see and 30 seconds from the river with clean sweet cooling swim water. Lots of shade against the burning sun. A very charming couple, Hani and Stavros with good advise, care and conversations (if you want). Everyday fresh meals... More

The warmth of the welcome was genuine and the beauty of the surroundings breathtaking as Stavros took us to see the full moon sitting over the hill across the river on the evening we arrived. Our first experience at the Dervishan was idyllic. This was to be a wonderful start to a memorable holiday based at the Dervishan. The room... More
