Dramatic mountains ...
Dramatic mountains rising steeply behind, a gulf of turquoise blue waters stretching out within Gokova Bay and nestled between the characteristic red-roofed, white-washed houses with ornate pine-timbered eaves and balconies strewn with brilliant pink bougainvillaea -this is Akyaka.
From the top main road as you make your descent into the village, here is the picture that lies before you -a panorama of a place which is not only spectacular but very special, for Akyaka has a certain appeal and atmosphere about it. Akyaka\'s treasures not only lie in its resplendent display of beautifully designed houses, within a magnificent setting, but furthermore in its leisurely way of life. As you enter, the pace slows right down and there seems no better way to just relax and enjoy the delights that surround you.

Location type

Akyaka village became famous for its architecture which was introduced by Nail Cakirhan who won a 'Aga Han' award in 1986. The houses are a combination of old Ottoman Empire and Greek style and maintains warmth in the winter and coolness in the summer. The original design has altered since and only retains a residue of the original architecture, nevertheless the village is very pretty especially with the abundance and perfumes of colourful flowers.
It is said that because of the springs and many eucalyptus trees in and around Akyaka it makes a very therapeutic atmosphere. In fact many people from Mugla actually retire in Akyaka for health reasons -the air is definitely better!
