Rumours - Ortaca

The music here gets louder every year and it is now an unbearable sound, spoiling Dalyan'd authenticity. The strobe light also doesn't fit with Dalyan.

The music is good and lots of energy, good vibes for dancing. Plenty of people to chat to and a mixture of nationalities. However the drinks are badly watered down, every drink tasted of very little alcohol even the tequila shots! I’m a very light drinker and my hangovers are terrible (which is why I don’t drink much however after 6 at least spirit mixer drinks and a few shots, I was expecting a terrible hangover…there was none! We still had a good night but drinks are overpriced for what they are. As you can imagine, fishbowls and cocktails are even worse…not much more then fruit juice priced at £20 40 (yes really! . We found watered down drinks to be a Dalyan speciality and most places were doing this.

İf you are a tourist or a foreigner, looking to meet locals... this is not the place. Sadly, the owners don 't allow locals to talk to foreigners in the bar, claiming that whomever can talk also can bother them ! With this kind of stone age thinking of owners, you will be better off hanging out on any other places. I don 't know what this business owner is thinking but our locals are kind, thoughtful, helpful when needed, and respectful people. You should have no concern mingling with locals.

I ended up going in here because every time I had walked by they'd been pumping out some good tunes! I ended up having a couple of tasty cocktails and a really nice, long chat with the owner who clearly works very hard and has lived a pretty exciting life!

Such a bad vibe, the owner told us don't talk to other people in the place, when we had only good intentions. In his words “ my way or the high way” we took the high way and never looked back.
