Port Inn Arsuz is a small budget property on the Sahil Yolu (Coastal Road) of Arsuz, a Mediterranean resort district of İskenderun municipality approximately 30 kilometres south of İskenderun city centre. The beach — a long arc of dark volcanic sand that characterises this stretch of the Hatay coast — is accessible on foot within five minutes of the property. The surrounding area is quiet outside summer months; July and August bring domestic visitors from Adana, Gaziantep, and Antakya, while spring and autumn are significantly calmer.
The inn is a modest two- or three-storey building typical of Turkish coastal pensions: a whitewashed exterior, functional interiors, and a relaxed atmosphere that prioritises beach access over formal hotel services. The property is owner-managed and draws primarily Turkish domestic guests seeking affordable seafront accommodation. International visitors passing through en route to Antakya or the Amik Plain also use the inn as an overnight stop.
Room types include Double, Triple, and Family configurations. Rooms are compact but air-conditioned; most have small balconies facing toward the sea. Bathrooms are basic. A simple breakfast is included in the room rate, featuring bread, olives, cheese, and tea — the local standard for a pension breakfast. There is no on-site restaurant for lunch or dinner, but several seafood restaurants and a traditional lokanta are within 200 metres along the seafront road.
No pool, spa, or fitness facilities are on site. Parking is available adjacent to the building, and local dolmuş (shared minibus) services connect Arsuz to İskenderun several times daily. The property suits budget travellers, domestic summer tourists, and anyone seeking simple, no-frills accommodation with close beach access in a quiet part of the Hatay coast.

Tips for visiting
- Book well in advance for July and August — Arsuz fills quickly with domestic summer visitors from Adana and Gaziantep, and small pensions like this one have limited room counts.
- The seafront restaurants within 200 metres serve grilled fish caught the same morning; eating out for dinner is both cheaper and better than most in-room alternatives.
- Dolmuş services to İskenderun run from Arsuz town centre roughly every 30 minutes during daylight hours — useful for reaching the main bus terminal or ferry port.
