Vacation rentals with lake access in Başakşehir

I liked this apartment last year so I stayed again for two months. Spacious, nicely decorated top floor flat with access to the roof terrace. Very quite building in the best location in Balat. Easy, short walk to buses and the ferry station. Everything works in the apartment and the marble Turkish bath is luxurious. I especially like the neighborhood because in the immediate area, near the apartment, normal, local people reside. You can experience Turkish culture instead of being in a tourist area. A few blocks away are restaurant, bakeries, grocery stores, etc. Overall, I highly recommend the apartment, the neighborhood and the host. All are superb!

Fantastic place to stay in Istambul! it's close to everything (restaurant,shop, public communication,fresh juice shop:)..about host I will only tell that during my travels I wish myself to have at least half good host as Can is. I will recommend this place to everyone. I don't even tell that house is clean, wifi is strong and house have all equipment.

It was amazing. The room was tidy and clean, and the view is absolutely beautiful. The neighborhood is lively during the day, but quiet and safe at night. Bulut, the host was very nice, friendly and helpful. He answered really fast, gave us tips, when we were on the terrace, he always gave us food and drinks, and when an earthquake happened, he took care of us and made sure we were okay. All in all, it was a wonderful experience, both the room and Bulut (and his parents) are amazing, we highly recommend staying here.

Really enjoyed our stay!!! Erfan is very good at communication and made sure our stay was as good as possible. Very easy walk to taksim sqr, very good food options right down the street. Will definitely come back

Mr. Furkan is a well-intentioned friend. He answered every question with patience, as if he was like a friend I had known for years. Your home was nice and calm. In addition to being calm, the transportation was very convenient. There was only a little slope, but there are already seven hills in most places in Istanbul. Thank you Furkan friend.

The apartment exactly matches the pictures – modernly furnished and with a stunning view of the Bosphorus. The large window fronts make it feel like you're sleeping in the conservatory – really special! Everything was as described, and Harun was super helpful when I didn't get the umbrella on the terrace myself. I felt completely comfortable and well taken care of. What not to underestimate: the ascent via the many stairs to the property. It's best to bring a backpack – or a bit of fitness. But after a few days you get used to it, and the view really makes up for it! Overall, a great place with a great view – I'd love to come back!

The space is great and very clean erhanGorgeous man, friendly and very borderful area safe and comfortable My first choice when returning to Istanbul

The view of the Bosporus is unbeatable although you have to climb up 4 five flights of stairs. But it’s really worth it. The condo is very cozy and spotless. Within radius of 10 minutes walking distance you can reach tons of restaurants. If you wanna go to blue mosque or Sophia, it takes 5-6 minutes to reach the T1 tram station. The caveat is you have to gown down a steep trail. On the way back it might be a bit laborious

The appartement of Erkan had caught my eye before, and when making the final decision something told me to book with Erkan. The appartement is exquisite, it looks better then the images! The house has a lovely energy and Balat is a very upbeat cozy neighbourhood full of color! It almost felt like a vacation in a vacation. Erkan sent me a guide of Balat with his selection of restaurants etc. He was friendly and very accommodating. Would recommend 10/10!
