The villa has private parking spaces, an infinity swimming pool, and complimentary Wi-Fi and air conditioning. This beautiful villa has recently been updated, with more bedrooms, a sauna and massage room, and an interior designer internal space. The property is built of traditional local stone, classical Mediterranean white walls, and floor-to-ceiling glass windows that flood the villa with natural light and gives it an airy sense of space. The interiors are furnished with contemporary pieces, modern lighting, and state-of-the-art technology and decorated with a subtle palette of neutral soft beiges and dove greys contrasted with crisp whites.
Enter the villa at the ground floor level, where you will discover a holiday home of open plan living; The seating space has a large soft coloured L-shaped wrap-around sofa, covered in scatter cushions, with a wooden coffee table, and an LCD flat screen television, with Netflix and English channels. The adjacent wood dining table with eight dove grey upholstered chairs is ideal for impressive indoor entertaining. The beautifully appointed, fully equipped wood and white kitchen have everything you need to cater for a happy holiday, including a huge American-style family-size fridge freezer, a built-in oven, hob and microwave, a water cooler, and the obligatory must-have morning coffee maker. There is also a preparation island and breakfast bar to seat six, a great spot to plan the day’s activities. A convenient cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Take the stairs to the first floor, where you will find three bedrooms. There are two bedrooms with large double beds and one twin room with two single beds. All the bedrooms are fully furnished, with ensuite marble bathrooms, walk-in showers, and balconies with stunning sea views. One of the bedrooms has ample walk-in closet space, and the three rooms together make an ideal family space. The spacious master bedroom occupies the second floor, with a large double bed and an ensuite bathroom that opens onto the newly renovated roof terrace. The terrace, which can be accessed via the bedroom or independently, has a sea view Jacuzzi, relaxing sun loungers, an elegant bar from which you can serve cocktails at sunset, and a soft seating area with an LCD television. If it gets a tad chilly, there’s a retractable rooftop too. The other two bedrooms are on the lower ground floor, one double and a twin that could be combined to be a double, with a shared shower room.
Most of your time will surely be spent on the stunning tiled terrace with sweeping panoramic sea views. There is an impressive step-entry infinity swimming pool with an integrated shallow end and a Jacuzzi, ideal for a few lengths before breakfast or a cooling afternoon swim. The pool is surrounded by cushioned sun loungers and a swing chair, whilst the soft seating area is the perfect place to chill. Dine alfresco under myriad stars at the twelve-seater table, with traditional Turkish dishes freshly prepared on the built-in barbeque. Take the steps to the lower ground floor, where you can work up a sweat in the Finnish-style sauna, and relax with a massage in the newly installed luxurious beauty room. Villa Enis is located in beautiful Kalamar Bay, west of Kalkan’s quaint harbour town, situated on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast, the jewel of the Mediterranean Sea. The town of Kalkan is 125 kilometres from Dalaman Airport, a scenic one and a half hour journey through the Turkish countryside and Taurus mountains.
Kalkan was originally a Greek enclave called Kalamaki, and Ottoman and Hellenic influences can be found in the winding streets of the old harbour town. Walk through the cobbled streets full of traditional white houses, home to a reputed one hundred and fifty restaurants, cafes, and bars, souvenir shops, and designer brand stores stuffed with objects of desire. After dark, dine in one of the famous rooftop restaurants with stunning harbour and sea views, sampling traditional Turkish delights and international cuisine.
From the villa it is a short walk to local shops and restaurants of Kalamar, and a five minute drive into Kalkan where you can find supermarkets and banks, and a local Thursday market, that can cater for all the provisions you will need for a happy holiday.
The charming Kalamar and Kulube Beach Clubs are within walking distance of the villa, with restaurants and a full-size swimming pool. Take a trip into town, and at the harbour get aboard one of the complimentary water taxis to one of the many exclusive beach clubs. The beach clubs all have with bathing platforms, sea views, sun lounger waiter service, restaurants, and bars, and some offer full size swimming pools, water sports, and spa services too. For the beach bunnies, Kalkan has its own pebble beach with organised sun loungers and brollies, easy access into the calm Mediterranean sea, and its own cute cafe. Travel further afield to the stunning Kaputas Beach set in a natural gorge, only two hundred steps down and two hundred steps back up, but well worth it for the scenery and the sea. Take a trip to Patara, where you will find twenty kilometres of unspoilt golden sands, and a protected area for the hatching Caretta Caretta turtles. Patara also boasts an archaeological site over two thousand years old, with not just one but two ancient amphitheatres, not to mention the most stunning sunsets, best seen from the ever-changing sand dunes.
No stay in Kalkan is complete without a boat trip from the harbour, whether it’s a shared one with family and friends, or you charter your own gulet, a day out at sea with your favourite captain and crew, is one that memories are made of. All aboard for a day of swimming and snorkelling in beautiful bays, enjoy a meal of local homecooked meze, take afternoon tea, and then sail back to harbour cocktail in hand to watch the sunset.
For those with itchy feet the Lycian Way walking trail cuts through Kalkan. Follow in the footsteps of thousands of years of history, as you trek the trail taking you through major archaeological sites, local villages, dramatic coastlines, and the areas’ flora and fauna. Take a short journey to the town of Kinik, where you can step back in time to the Lycian city of Xanthos. Follow the D400 to Fethiye, and discover the historical sites of Patara, Letoon, Tlos, Sidyma, and Pinara, where you can see the ancient ruins, amphitheatres and temples with Lycian, Greek, Roman, and Byzantine influences. The harbour town of Fethiye is also full of ancient sites worth seeing, as well as a foodie-heaven fish market, and home to some seriously good designer labels and fabulous jewellery shopping. Whilst the nearer town of Kas is just twenty-five kilometres in the other direction, and worth the journey alone along one of the world’s most stunning and dramatic coastlines. Walk through the harbour to the cobbled streets full of Ottoman architecture and overhanging balconies festooned with pastel coloured bougainvillaea, barter for unique handmade and antique goods in its many shops, and make memories dining in one of the traditional restaurants serving authentic Turkish cuisine with mesmerising sea views. And if you’re feeling really intercontinental, hop on the twenty-minute ferry from Kas to the Greek island of Meis, where you can swim in the mystical Blue Cave and dine by candlelight at the water’s edge.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
