Villa Ay 2 | 4-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Kalkan, Kas Kalkan

A luxury villa rental in Kalkan, Kas sits on Turkey’s Lycian Coast where turquoise waters meet whitewashed architecture, and Villa Ay 2 commands one of the finest positions in this transformed fishing village. Eight guests arrive to discover a newly constructed villa overlooking Kalamar Bay, with four ensuite bedrooms and uninterrupted vistas across the Mediterranean toward the dramatic Taurus Mountains rising inland.

Inside Villa Ay 2

Villa Ay 2 sleeps 8 guests across 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, with each room receiving its own ensuite facilities and contemporary styling. The ground floor contains an open-plan living and dining zone where the kitchen runs along one wall, equipped with modern appliances including hob, oven, microwave, kettle and toaster. Natural light floods this main living area through substantial windows framing the pool terrace beyond. A coffee table anchors two substantial seating sections in the lounge, while the dining table seats six comfortably with sightlines across the gardens toward the sea.

One double bedroom occupies the ground floor with direct garden access and its own bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, marble finishes and hairdryer. This room suits guests preferring ground-level convenience or those with mobility considerations.

The first floor hosts three additional bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms. One double room and two further doubles (one configured as twin beds) each access a shared balcony via full-height French doors. The bathrooms continue the villa’s marble and white-finish aesthetic, each outfitted with generous walk-in showers. Washing machine and tumble dryer are available for extended stays, while air conditioning maintains comfort throughout the building.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The pool measures 10 metres by 3.5 metres with a depth of 1.45 metres and heats to a maximum of 28 degrees Celsius—essential comfort during shoulder seasons. Sun loungers line the terrace edges, with swing pods suspended for afternoon rest. The water’s temperature control extends the swimming season from April through November. A ping-pong table sits poolside for competitive entertainment, while the built-in barbecue serves meals al fresco. The pergola-shaded dining area accommodates six guests and looks directly across the gardens toward Kalamar Bay. Umbrella coverage protects from midday intensity, and a garage accommodates one vehicle for guests preferring private transfers between the villa and Kalkan town centre.

The gardens embrace Mediterranean planting—fragrant vegetation, climbing bougainvillea in magenta and pink creating natural colour throughout the property. Terraces step down from the villa toward the pool, with multiple seating configurations enabling social gatherings or solitary moments with sea views. The light changes dramatically across the day here: morning sun illuminates the first-floor balcony facing northeast, while sunset throws golden light across the western-facing pool terrace approximately two hours before dusk.

Location: Kalkan, Kas and the Surrounding Area

Kalkan itself, positioned 2 kilometres from Villa Ay 2, operates as the Lycian Coast’s defining settlement. What was a quiet fishing village thirty years ago has evolved into a sophisticated resort while retaining character—the whitewashed houses, narrow streets and village grid remain intact, now hosting over 200 restaurants ranging from casual kebab vendors to Michelin-consulted establishments. Market day brings vendors selling produce, textiles and souvenirs to the town centre, typically Thursday mornings. The small pebble beach within Kalkan town suits snorkellers, with boat operators offering daily trips to the famous Blue Cave—expect 45 minutes travel by motorboat from the beach.

Kaputaş Beach lies 10 kilometres south, celebrated for its dramatic gorge formation where white sand meets luminous turquoise water beneath limestone cliffs. The 12-kilometre expanse of Patara Beach stretches 20 kilometres north, backed by Lycian archaeological ruins and known for sunset viewing that stops conversations. Patara also hosts the Mediterranean’s largest sea turtle nesting site—visits in June through September reveal loggerhead and green turtle activity if you visit during nesting season.

The Lycian Way—a marked hiking route spanning 540 kilometres along the coast—begins roughly 8 kilometres from Villa Ay 2. Multi-day walks connect Kalkan to Kas, Demre and beyond, passing through forests, along clifftop ridges and through villages untouched by tourism. Day walks of 2-4 hours suit guests wanting exercise without committing to the full trail.

Archaeological sites pepper the region: Canthos lies 15 kilometres inland, Myra sits 35 kilometres east, Letoon occupies 40 kilometres northeast, and the hilltop acropolis at Tlos rises 25 kilometres north. These ruins represent centuries of Lycian, Greek and Roman occupation, with museums in Kalkan and Kas providing context.

May and October offer warm weather (22-26°C), fewer visitors and lower rates. April and November see occasional rain but remain pleasant for hiking and exploration.
