The hotel and its location
Sofia Ada is a place to stay on Şövalye Island, set in the bay of Fethiye and reached by boat. Its neighbours on the island include Ece Hotel and Sovalye Hotel, both a short walk away, as is Mia Casa Hotel. Across the water on the mainland, Çalış Beach, Fethiye Ece Marina and the Telmessos Ancient Theatre are a short crossing and drive away.
Because Sofia Ada sits on the island, your private transfer from Dalaman Airport ends at the water's edge rather than at the front door. Your driver meets you in arrivals with a name sign and takes you to the pier or boat point for Şövalye Island on the Fethiye side, where you continue across by boat. The price is fixed when you book.
