Villa Dilek Turkey
Holiday Home Rental Description
Suitable for up to eleven guests, the charming Villa Dilek is located just a five minute walk from the centre of Dalyan. Situated in a quiet, residential area, this grand property comes with an elegant pool terrace and garden.
A lovely private space, the terrace at Villa Dilek offers sun loungers with parasols beside the spacious pool, and there is also a dining area. You will also find a large barbecue in a dedicated area in the pretty garden, which is full of colour and texture.
Inside, you have a comfortable living room with a decorative fireplace, TV and seating, while your kitchen provides a dishwasher, microwave, fridge freezer and all the essentials. Located on the first floor, these areas have access to terraces with fine mountain views.
There is another kitchen and living room on the ground floor, along with three bedrooms. With a double bed and twin beds, two of these rooms have their own en suite bathroom, and there’s a separate bathroom on this floor to serve the bedroom with three beds, which has a balcony overlooking the pool. You will find another double and twin bedroom on the first floor, which share a large family bathroom. These rooms both have balconies too.
Within just 25km of Dalyan Airport, this well-located villa is a short walk from the town centre of Dalyan. You can take a ride down the Dalyan River to the stunning Iztuzu Beach, or enjoy an array of cycling routes around the area. Other excursions you could make include visits to busy Koycegiz Market or the wonderful mud baths of the Sultaniye Hot Springs.In Mugla Province, the town of Dalyan has plenty for visitors to discover. Among its treasures is the wonderful Iztuzu Beach, a very long stretch of sand which is well known for the presence of the Caretta Caretta turtles which lay their eggs on the beach. One side of the beach is accessible by road, while the other is reached by boat. While it is quite a long journey from the town itself – around 12km – Iztuzu Beach is definitely worth the trouble.
There are various other beaches in the area you might also wish to visit. These include Aşı Beach, a great diving spot about 20km from Dalyan, and the lovely Ekincik Beach which is ideal for surfers and swimmers.
One unforgettable excursion you can make from Dalyan is the boat trip to the ancient city of Caunos. It will take about 10 minutes to reach Caunos, which is known for its magnificent rock tombs and grand amphitheatre. This really is a stunning place that you shouldn’t miss – the tombs are visible from the river and look particularly spectacular when they are lit up at night.
Something else that Dalyan is famous for is its many mud baths. Said to be a healing experience, there are claims that being immersed in the Dalyan mud has helped with all sorts of conditions. It is even said that Cleopatra owed her beauty to it. Whatever the truth of it, this is a fun experience for visitors (although given how dirty you’ll get, it’s the sort of thing you are likely to love or hate). The Sultaniye Hot Springs is just one name to look out for if you’re after a mud bath, found south west of Lake Koycegiz – itself a magnificent sight.
The Dalyan River which runs through the town provides opportunities for rafting through a wonderful canyon, while boat trips around the local islands are a less energetic but just as enjoyable experience. You could take a Jeep safari tour around the area instead, stopping off at all the best places along the way. For a bird’s eye view, you could also seek out the paragliding opportunities which are a big favourite in this region.
You will find charming riverside restaurants in Dalyan, serving excellent Turkish food, and this is a particularly nice location for a meal out. If you fancy snapping up some goodies and having a go yourself, you can also visit the weekly Dalyan Market on Saturdays. You will certainly build up an appetite if you hike up Radar Hill, which offers a wonderful view over Dalyan.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
