Historic Greek House with Sea View in Ayvalik

Experience the timeless soul of Ayvalık at Mercan 1886, a beautifully restored historic Greek house where authentic Aegean character meets modern comfort.

Set among the atmospheric stone streets of old Ayvalık, this charming two-story home invites you to experience the town like a local. Wake up to views of the Aegean Sea, enjoy your morning coffee on the private balcony, wander through historic streets, and discover local cafés, restaurants and boutiques just minutes from your door.

Mercan 1886 has been carefully restored while preserving the architectural character and warm atmosphere of a traditional Ayvalık home. Bright interiors and thoughtful contemporary touches make it a comfortable retreat for couples, small families and friends.

The home

The home also includes a fully equipped kitchen, dining area and welcoming living spaces, giving you everything you need to enjoy Ayvalık at your own pace.

One of Mercan 1886's most special features is its private balcony with sea views — an inviting place for slow breakfasts, afternoon coffee or a glass of wine as the light changes over the Aegean.

A wonderful location for discovering Ayvalık
