Stepping Over the Line

Besiktas is a beautiful part of Istanbul, shaped by striking buildings and stunning architecture – and you have the best view of the skyline from the comfort of your balcony.

Whether it's with a morning cup of coffee, a lunch of shawarma or a bottle of raki in the evening, the balcony is an idyllic spot to relax. When the weather is a bit chilly, you can gather on the luscious white sofas and still admire the view of the concrete skyline.

The sofas command a radiant living room that's brightened by natural light pouring in through the balcony doors. Light, wooden flooring and a forest of plants help lace the room with an exuberant ambiance, whilst the stylish dining table adds a sense of elegance. Smart and comfortable, it's a vibrant space that's perfect for hosting guests.

If you prefer dining out to eating in, Besiktas is home to a plethora of fine restaurants. Enjoy some sumptuous food, then take a stroll around the pretty streets to feel the charisma of the suburb. Don't worry if you indulge too much at dinner, you can burn off any extra calories with the gym equipment at home.

Home truths:
* There is parking available at the home
* Unfortunately, there's no elevator in the building, so guests with reduced mobility may struggle
* Your booking includes 24/7 availability from your host if any issues arise
* The balcony table only holds four guests, so a group of six would struggle to fit there
