Villa Turkuaz | 5-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Mugla Fethiye

Ten guests can spread across Villa Turkuaz, a five-bedroom luxury villa rental in Mugla that commands sweeping Mediterranean vistas from its hilltop perch above Faralya village. The Aegean stretches toward Rhodes from nearly every vantage point here—from the master suite balcony to the infinity-edged pool deck—making this property in Mugla’s quietest corner feel simultaneously intimate and expansive. This is the kind of villa that justifies flying halfway across the world: contemporary architecture finished in whitewashed stone, indigenous plantings that smell of wild rosemary after rain, and a four-acre private estate where the nearest neighbor remains entirely invisible.

Inside Villa Turkuaz

Villa Turkuaz sleeps 10 guests across 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, thoughtfully distributed across the main residence and a separate annexe. The ground floor contains four double bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms and private balconies facing south toward the sea. Floor-to-ceiling glass panels flood the interior with natural light throughout the day, and two of these ground-floor bedrooms open directly onto the pool terrace—guests wake to the sound of water and birdsong. A fifth double bedroom, positioned in the independent annexe structure and accessed from the exterior courtyard, provides privacy for adult guests or teenagers seeking their own entrance and space. This room also features a full en-suite bathroom and air conditioning.

The heart of the villa centers on an open-plan configuration where the kitchen, living area, and dining space flow seamlessly together. The kitchen comes fully equipped with modern appliances—dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster—alongside conventional stovetop and refrigeration, designed for self-catering comfort or light meal preparation. Large windows frame the Aegean from the dining table. Throughout the property, reverse-cycle air conditioning maintains comfortable temperatures during summer months. All five bedrooms and the annexe benefit from dedicated climate control. A washing machine handles linens, and the property includes Wi-Fi connectivity for those who cannot entirely disconnect.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The outdoor realm distinguishes Villa Turkuaz from typical Mediterranean rentals. The centerpiece is a 15-meter by 4.5-meter swimming pool with 1.6-meter depth, accessible via Roman-style entry steps and surrounded by sun loungers and parasols. The pool looks directly toward the coastline below—no obstruction between you and the sea. A summer kitchen, complete with barbecue and dedicated cooking station, sits steps from the outdoor dining area, where you can prepare local fish while watching sunlight turn the water gold at dusk. The entire terrace receives shade from a timber pergola draped with climbing plants; in the height of summer, this becomes an essential refuge from midday heat.

Stone pathways connect different zones of the grounds. A poolside shower allows guests to rinse away salt and chlorine without entering the house. The four-acre plot, enclosed by natural boundaries and mature trees, creates genuine seclusion—CCTV cameras provide security without compromising the sense of private wilderness. Private parking accommodates multiple vehicles at the villa entrance, and a 300-meter gravel approach road leads from the main Faralya village road adds to the sense of arrival at something removed from ordinary life.

Location: Mugla and the Surrounding Area

Faralya village sits 15 kilometers south of Ölüdeniz and 30 kilometers south of Fethiye, placing Villa Turkuaz in Mugla province’s most tranquil corner while keeping major attractions within a short drive. The location delivers both seclusion and accessibility—rare in Turkish Mediterranean rentals.

Ölüdeniz, 15km north, centres on the world-famous Blue Lagoon, where freshwater springs create an ethereal turquoise shallows framed by forested hillsides. Belcekız Beach, adjacent to the lagoon, offers soft white sand and exceptionally clear water—ideal for families and swimmers who prefer warmer, calmer conditions than the open Aegean. Fethiye harbor, 30km north, transforms at sunset when waterfront bars fill with locals and visitors ordering meze and raki. The town anchors Turkish culture: the Tomb of Amyntas, carved into the cliff face in the 4th century BCE, overlooks the entire harbor. Fethiye’s markets sell everything from handwoven kilim rugs to seasonal produce; the Thursday fish market operates year-round. Turkish baths (hammams) dot the town center, offering traditional steam and massage treatments.

The Lycian Way, a marked 540-kilometer hiking trail, passes directly above the villa—the descent to Faralya village along this ancient route counts among Turkey’s most photogenic walks. Butterfly Valley, a protected nature reserve accessible by boat or foot from Ölüdeniz, shelters over 90 butterfly species across its steep canyon walls. Kayaking excursions depart from multiple points along the coast; boat hire companies in Fethiye and Ölüdeniz rent private caiques for full-day explorations of hidden coves and sunken cities.

Local restaurants in Faralya village serve köfte (seasoned meat balls served with yogurt), grilled octopus, and freshly caught grouper. The village maintains only a handful of permanent restaurants, preserving its quietude—advance reservations are essential during peak season. Supermarket supplies can be sourced 5km away in the larger village of Kabak or 20km away in Ölüdeniz town center.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Multigenerational families benefit from the separate annexe bedroom, allowing adult children or grandparents genuine privacy while remaining steps away from shared spaces. Groups of four to five couples enjoy the symmetry of bedrooms and bathrooms—no queuing for showers in morning hours. Parents with teenagers appreciate the pool, the proximity to water sports (windsurfing at Ölüdeniz, kayaking throughout the region), and the security of a private estate where children can safely explore 40 acres under supervision. Remote workers find reliable Wi-Fi and quiet enough to manage video calls without road noise intrusion.

The villa suits travelers seeking authentic Mugla without sacrificing comfort. If your vacation centers on lounging poolside with books and occasional outings to Fethiye market or Ölüdeniz beach, this property delivers. If you require nightlife, shopping malls, or international cuisine, you’ll spend significant time driving to Fethiye. The gravel access road and 300-meter uphill approach mean delivery vehicles or taxis may decline the final ascent—plan grocery shopping and dining accordingly.
