Villa Elmas | 5-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Kas Dalaman

Ten guests converge on the Ortalaan hillside above Kas, unpacking into Villa Elmas—a contemporary five-bedroom residence that commands dual-aspect views across both Kalkan and Kalamar bays. The Mediterranean sprawls beneath the terrace, and conversation stops. This is what luxury villa rental in Kas delivers when location, design, and amenities align.

Inside Villa Elmas

Villa Elmas sleeps 10 guests across 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, distributed across three levels that follow the natural slope of the hillside. The middle floor anchors the living quarters, where a generous open-plan layout flows seamlessly from the fully equipped kitchen through the dining area and into the principal lounge—a space that comfortably seats fifteen people on multiple seating arrangements. Floor-to-ceiling glazing frames the bay views throughout, while marble underfoot and air conditioning create a cool refuge during peak summer months.

The master bedroom occupies its own wing, fitted with a super-king bed and an ensuite shower room that includes a Jacuzzi—the kind of private bathing space where you find yourself lingering with morning coffee. Two further double bedrooms, each with their own ensuite shower facilities, provide the standard that makes group holidays harmonious; nobody queues for the bathroom. The fourth bedroom houses twin single beds with an ensuite shower room and a separate whirlpool bath, a configuration that works equally well for friends sharing or younger family members. The fifth bedroom mirrors the twin setup with single beds and ensuite shower room, completing the bedroom inventory.

A dedicated guest bathroom serves circulation areas, while a laundry room with washing machine, clothes dryer, iron and board handles the practical demands of extended stays. Hairdryers in all bedrooms, a coffee machine, juicer, and blender stock the kitchen. The entertainment systems run to satellite television, DVD player, stereo with iPod connectivity—the kind of comprehensive setup that suits groups who want options without complexity.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The outdoor architecture tells its own story. An infinity pool dominates the lower terrace, generously proportioned for a private villa and connected via cascading waterfall to a shallow pool alongside—the depth gradient eliminates debates about swimming ability. Fourteen sun loungers, sofas, and easy chairs occupy three tiered terraces at different elevations, each positioned to capture southern exposure and the maritime breeze that moves across the water by mid-afternoon.

The private bar sits ready for sundowners, while a traditional Turkish kosk provides sheltered seating for evening gatherings. A marble dining table anchors the covered outdoor dining area, positioned to catch the light at dinner time—that golden-hour illumination that makes everything taste better. The Jacuzzi sits on the upper terrace, heated and ready for the kind of starlit soaking that justifies the luxury villa rental investment. Evening lighting transforms the grounds into an intimate venue; subtle fixtures avoid harshness while maintaining function. A spa zone houses both sauna and steam room with outdoor shower, the kind of wellness infrastructure that makes spa visits redundant.

Barbecue facilities cater to informal dining, while table tennis, table football, and exercise equipment occupy the recreational niche. Snorkels and flippers sit ready—the sea is minutes away, and the bays hold underwater interest worth exploring.

Location: Kas and the Surrounding Area

Kas sits 2 hours inland from Dalaman Airport, accessible via the D400 highway that winds through the Taurus mountains—a drive that signals arrival somewhere genuinely removed from mass tourism. The town itself, formerly known as Kalamaki during its Greek period, retains that mixed Ottoman and Hellenic character in its old town’s whitewashed houses and bougainvillea-lined cobbled streets. Over 100 restaurants, cafés, and bars operate year-round, clustered around the harbour and threading through the residential quartiers.

The nearest beach access sits 5 minutes by car at the harbour itself, where private water taxis ferry guests to any of Kalkan’s 15 beach clubs—including the chic Villa Mahal, the family-orientated Kalkan Beach Park, and the modern Zest with its split-level infinity pools. Kaputaş Beach, nestled into a natural gorge 10km southwest, offers dramatic scenery at the cost of 200 steps down (and the same return journey); the white-sand cove rewards the effort. Patara, 30km further west, commands two ancient 2,000-year-old amphitheatres and 20 kilometres of golden sand backed by a protected turtle-nesting reserve for Caretta Caretta loggerheads.

Kaş town itself lies 25km west—a compact working harbour with pastel-painted buildings, handmade goods shops, and antique dealers lining steep streets. A 20-minute ferry connects Kaş to the Greek island of Meis (Kastellorizo), where the Blue Cave awaits swimmers and waterfront restaurants operate under Aegean skies. The Lycian Way walking trail passes through the region, threading ancient archaeological sites and local villages through dramatic coastal terrain. Xanthos, the classical Lycian city, sits at nearby Kinik; Fethiye, 60km east, concentrates historical sites including Letoon, Tlos, and Pinara—each offering Lycian, Greek, Roman, and Byzantine remains. Fethiye itself functions as the region’s commercial hub, with a working fish market and designer shopping that rivals coastal Turkish standards.

Seasonal rhythms matter here. May through September delivers reliable sunshine and calm seas—perfect for boat hire and beach time, though July and August heat intensifies and accommodation fills. April and October offer spring wildflowers or autumn clarity with fewer crowds. The Thursday market in Kalkan (15 minutes walk from Villa Elmas) stocks fresh local produce and handmade textiles. A local supermarket sits within walking distance for basics; larger supermarkets, banks, and the full market operate in Kalkan town itself, a three-minute drive away.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended family groups of eight to ten people find Villa Elmas’s configuration—five bedrooms, multiple lounge spaces, generous terraces—eliminates the spatial friction that derails group holidays. Two families with children benefit from the shallow pool section, family-friendly nearby beaches, and the kind of space where parents retain privacy while supervision remains straightforward.

Multi-generational gatherings work well; grandparents occupy the master suite with its Jacuzzi, while parents and teenagers distribute across remaining bedrooms without compression. Groups of friends—particularly those splitting into couples and singles—appreciate the ensuite bathrooms, reducing morning bathroom logistics to non-issue.

Couples seeking luxury and privacy will find the views, the hot tub, and the spa facilities speak clearly, though the five-bedroom footprint works best when occupied by groups rather than two people (underutilized infrastructure increases per-person costs).
