Short answer: For a couple or a small family of 2–4 in Maşukiye, a bungalow is a practical and romantic choice. For groups of more than 6, for those who don’t want to share the pool and living spaces with anyone, and for a comfortable winter stay, a villa rented in its entirety is the better fit.
What is a bungalow stay in Maşukiye?
Maşukiye bungalows are usually small wooden buildings with one or two rooms, set in nature. Most are part of a resort, where the pool, breakfast room or garden may be shared with other guests. Some have a jacuzzi or fireplace. They are very popular for short, romantic getaways.
