Situated on the banks of the Azmak River, the Ottoman Residence opened in May 2005. The Ottoman Residence is reminiscent of an Ottoman Han, the rooms overlooking a central courtyard with a water feature. Built in the Mugla style, natural wood was used extensively in the construction of the hotel and incorporates the 500 year old Ottoman details and motifs. Built and designed by Tevfik Toprakç?, who is a well known architect in the area, this was his masterpiece and he has paid attention to every detail for example the different motifs which are depicted on the backs of chairs and below the handrails, have been copied from ancient structures. Most of the pictures used in the Ottoman Residence are original paintings and represent scenes from the Akyaka area.
