Villa

Set on the hillside above Kalkan and Kalamar bays, Villa Yazlik is a five-bedroom, six bathroom villa combining spacious, light-filled interiors with fabulous outdoor space and spectacular sea and mountain views.

With its thoughtful layout and attention to detail, this villa is welcoming for family gatherings, big groups or special celebrations.

As well as breathtaking views, what sets this villa apart from other five-bedroom villas in Kalkan and Kalamar is the exceptional space both inside and out, allowing full facilities for 10 people. There are 10 sun loungers around the villa's large infinity pool, with another two on the roof terrace and two on the lower terrace. The large indoor and outdoor granite and marble tables accommodate 10 or more people comfortably, the kosk lounging area is big enough for 10, while the sofas and armchairs in the large living area can seat as many as 14 people. Even the villa's jacuzzi, sauna and steam rooms are spacious enough for 10 people to use at the same time.

Indeed, The large open-plan living area has two spacious lounges and a well-equipped kitchen/diner. Together with five ensuite bedrooms (two with their own jacuzzis), these light and airy rooms have floor to ceiling glass windows and sliding doors that connect the comfortable interiors with three generously furnished terraces. This area is called the Turquoise Coast for good reason, and every room and terrace is designed to maximise the mesmerising views of the mountains, olive groves, Old Town, tiny islands and the clear blue waters of Kalkan and Kalamar bay.

Outside, an 11.5 metre infinity pool encircled with ten cushioned sun loungers, the large children’s pool, and a generous-sized jacuzzi make for a relaxing holiday for all ages.

You’ll even find a sauna and steam room or, for the more energetic, a cross trainer, table tennis and table football.

Even with a party of 10 there are plenty of places to spread out, from the pool terrace itself, to sofas and loungers on the roof terrace, comfy seating areas on the villa’s two balconies, and loungers and seats on the lower terrace. This means the villa never feels overcrowded.

And when you want to socialise together, where better than the shaded dining area complete with barbeque. Then, as the sun goes down, why not retire to the bar and unwind with a few sundowners, or lounge in the traditional Turkish kosk and watch the lights of Kalkan as they twinkle in the twilight.

If you can draw yourself away from the villa’s relaxing setting, the beautiful old town of Kalkan is just a 15-minute walk away. Its cobbled streets with old fishermen’s houses tumbling with colourful bougainvillea now house a variety of pretty gift shops, bars, cafes, locantas and sophisticated restaurants.

At the bottom of the hill lie Kalkan beach and a variety of beach clubs, together with the tiny ancient harbour, home to romantic harbour-side restaurants and traditional wooden gullets that offer day trips around the bays and coastline
