房源位置

Also known as Alibey, the Island is a stunning beauty in the Ayvalik Islands Archipelago in Turkey. Located close to Greece in the North-eastern Aegean Sea and connected by a causeway to the mainland, the Cunda island is easily accessible to tourists. The Ayvalik Islands are a large group of 22 islands of which only Cunda and Lale Islands are inhabited. Cunda Island was once predominantly inhabited by the Greeks. Today much of its culture, lifestyle, and cuisine has been retained from its Greek roots. Being an island town, seafood restaurants are in abundance and serve exotic local dishes such as the grilled ‘çipura’(a local fish.) Also, a pleasing variety of Turkish and Greek foods is available to the people on this small island. The Island is also known for its beautiful greenery and forests.
Nowadays, plenty of old and dilapidated Greek buildings have been restored, and the island is full of joy and life, nothing short of the celebration of the Aegean lifestyle, if there is such a thing. This is a tourist destination with a growing interest and popularity each year. As always, these things are good news and bad news. Good, because a growing amount of visitors bring in the funds to restore the town to its former beauty. Bad news, because too many tourists are known to take the soul out of a community.
The town’s seafront is slowly succumbing to the ever-changing demands of tourists, but to those who make an effort to look beyond the glam of the newest hotspots, awaits a fabulous island with a generous mixture of untouched nature, fascinating architecture, inviting little streets, and corners, and relatively untouched settlements.
For many, the town itself is the big draw to flock to Cunda on a beautiful day. It’s easy to see why. The seafront is dotted with cafés and restaurants, ice-cream salons, and boats awaiting passengers to tour around the nearby islands. One could easily spend a few hours whiling away the day just taking in the views whilst enjoying a deep-fried ice cream. But then the backstreets start calling you. They are mostly narrow and inviting, lined with stunning houses and quirky shops. This town is a buzzing sea of color, day and night.
