Hideaway Hotel is run by a Turkish - Belgian couple , Ahmet and Marie .Ahmet was born and raised in Kas . He loves his country and his hometown
and plans to continue to live in Kas as long as he can !Marie is Belgian ( from the French speaking part of Belgium ) and her
first trip to Turkey dates back to 2005 .Every year , we have hundreds of visitors who ask us ‘ What ’s your
story ? ” “ Marie , what brought you to Kas ? ”
Well , here it is :Ahmet and I met in Kas in 2005
when I was traveling through Turkey for the first time with two friends . At
the time , I was staying in a small pension that was run by Ahmet , a pension
that his parents first established in the 1980's when tourism started to
develop in Kas . He has been in the hospitality business since he was a child
helping his parents run their pension . Later on he purchased a building in the
same neighborhood , and created the “ Hideaway Hotel ”
As a former teacher and employee , I tried to bring my organizational
and interactive skills to the business . We both love traveling over the world
in the winter , and when we cannot travel because the hotel keeps us busy , we
feel lucky to meet other travelers who want to share their stories and culture
with us .As for me , after many trips between Belgium and Kas , and later on between Kas and Ankara where I worked as a French teacher , in June 2007 I decided to move to Kas permanently and we started to run the business together .As a couple , I think we bring great harmony and balance to the business . Ahmet is very knowledgeable about this area and loves to share his love for his hometown with other travelers . Being Turkish , he has this attitude of “ nothing is impossible ” and often surprises me arranging things that I thought were impossible to do just by making a couple of phone calls !
Of course ,we have been fortunate to have the same staff working with us
for several years now and they share our aim to make your stay as comfortable
as possible .Can has been working with us for six years now and manages the hotel in the winter when we are away .
Zahide , our cook , and Gülnaz ( in charge of breakfast ) have been with us for four years and cook homemade traditional food , the exact same way their mum taught them to .
Our cleaner, has been working with us from the first day Ahmet opened the hotel , so we trust them 100% .
Mehmet has started to work with us 2 years ago and is happy to answer all your questions about this area.
