Where Is Baga Hotel in Akyaka? Dalaman Airport Travel Guide 2027

Where is Baga Hotel, is it on the beach, and how do you get there from Dalaman Airport? Baga Hotel is a boutique hotel of about 27 rooms in Akyaka, the slow city at the head of the Gulf of Gökova, set right on the water in a small cove just outside the town centre. This guide covers the hotel's location, how far it is from the beach and the centre, your transport options from the airport, and what to know for your arrival and departure days.

Where Is Baga Hotel?

Baga Hotel is at Maden İskelesi, Gümrük Sokak No:3, Akyaka, Ula / Muğla, in a small cove where the forest meets the sea, just outside Akyaka town centre.

• Province / district: Muğla / Ula

• Area: Akyaka, Maden İskelesi, on the Gulf of Gökova

• Akyaka centre and beach: about 1–1.5 km (about 5 minutes by car)

• Azmak river: about 5 minutes by car

• Nearest airport: Dalaman Airport (DLM), about 72–75 km

• Alternative airport: Milas-Bodrum Airport (BJV), about 105 km

Distances are based on the hotel's listings and road calculations and may vary slightly depending on your route on foot or by car.

Is the Hotel on the Beach?

Yes. Baga Hotel is right on the water and has a small beach for guests. According to the hotel's listings, there is a seasonal outdoor pool in the garden, sunbathing areas by the sea and Mavna Restaurant, which serves lunch and dinner. The hotel operates on a bed-and-breakfast basis.

In Akyaka the cold spring water of the Azmak flows into the sea, so the water can feel cooler than in other Aegean coves even in summer. If you prefer warmer water, the hotel pool is a good alternative.

Getting to Akyaka Centre and the Azmak

Akyaka centre and beach are about 1–1.5 km from the hotel. When it is cooler you can walk there along the coast road in 15–25 minutes; in the heat of the day a short taxi ride is easier. Being away from the busy centre is one of the things guests like most about the hotel.

The Azmak, Akyaka's best-known sight, is also just a few minutes away by car. An early evening visit for a boat trip on its clear water and dinner at a riverside restaurant is a great plan. For everything to see in the area, see our Akyaka travel guide.

How to Get from Dalaman Airport to Baga Hotel

1. Private transfer

Whatever time your flight lands, your driver waits for you and takes you straight to the hotel entrance. As the hotel is outside the centre on the Maden İskelesi side, a vehicle that goes right to the door makes things much easier, especially with luggage. Book on our Dalaman Airport – Akyaka transfer page and enter "Baga Hotel" as the address.

• Price per vehicle, confirmed when you book

• Sedan, minivan, business van and minibus options

• Free baby and child seats

2. Bus and dolmuş

There is no direct bus from the airport to Akyaka. Muttaş's Marmaris line stops at the Gökova junction on the main road; from there you continue to the hotel by taxi or dolmuş. Dolmuşes go to Akyaka centre, and as the hotel is outside the centre you may need a taxi for the last stretch. For details see our Where is Akyaka and how to get there guide.

3. Taxi

You can take an airport taxi straight to the hotel, but the fare runs on the meter and waiting times can be longer at night.

4. Car hire

Worth considering if you plan day trips. According to the hotel's listings, free parking is available for guests, and being outside the centre makes parking easier.

Flying into Bodrum?

If your flight lands at Milas-Bodrum Airport, the drive to Akyaka is longer. See our Bodrum Airport to Akyaka guide or our Bodrum Airport – Akyaka transfer page for your options.

Late-Night Arrivals

Even if you land at Dalaman late at night, you will be met. After collecting your luggage, simply go to Mavi Transfer desk no. 4. Hotel check-in is from 14:00; if you will arrive at night or in the early morning, let the hotel know in advance.

Your Return Trip

Check-out is at 11:30. With an evening flight you can leave your luggage at reception and spend the day in Akyaka. We agree the pick-up time with you, allowing for the 65–80 minute drive to the airport and check-in time.

Good to Know
