Start your day with a few lengths of the step entry salt water infinity swimming pool, before cooling off in the summer sun under the shady pergola soft seating area. Catch up on this year’s bestsellers whilst catching some rays on the state-of-the-art grey mesh sun loungers, before snoozing under the shady parasols. Invigorate yourself in the pool’s in-built jacuzzi, before a game of ping-pong on the is it really glass table tennis table. Enjoy a refreshing sundowner or two as the sun sets, before dining alfresco under the twinkling stars, with local delicacies cooked on the free-standing barbeque. Villa Nuray is located in the olive groves at the top of the village of Ulagol, to the east of the quaint harbour town of Kalkan, situated on the 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. Originally a Greek enclave called Kalamaki, Ottoman and Hellenic influences can be found in the winding colourful cobbled streets of the old town, full of traditional white houses and home to a reputed one hundred and fifty restaurants, cafes and bars, and lots of souvenir and craft shops full of goodies you’ll want to take home.
From the villa it is a short walk (albeit steep) to the local supermarket for your daily provisions, or ask the on-site team to arrange a grocery delivery for you. Take the taxi or drive into Kalkan where you can find supermarkets, shops, banks, and a local Thursday market, that can provide all the you will need to cater for a happy holiday. Just a short drive away in Kisla are a few of Kalkan’s best and most exclusive beach clubs, with bathing platforms, fabulous restaurants, and some with full size swimming pools. Most notably there is the smart Villa Mahal, where you can dine by candlelight as the waves lap the seashore, or the beautifully dressed Zest with wood burning pizza oven and infinity pool. Take a trip into town to the harbour and board a complimentary water taxi to one of the many inviting beach clubs on the opposite side of the bay.
No stay in Kalkan is complete without a boat trip from the harbour, whether it’s a shared one with family and friends or why not charter your own private gulet, a day out at sea with your favourite captain and crew is one to treasure. 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 the beach bunnies, Kalkan has its own pebble beach with easy access into the sea. Back on dry land don’t miss the opportunity to experience an authentic Turkish hammam, enjoy the heat and bubbles of a hands-on massage, and be pampered in one of the many super spas all over town.
Travel further afield to the stunning Kaputas Beach set in a natural gorge, only two hundred steps down, and two hundred back up again. Take a trip to Patara, where you will find two two-thousand year old ampitheatres, and twenty kilometres of unspoilt golden sands with a protected area for the hatching Caretta Caretta turtles. 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, 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.
The nearer town of Kas is just twenty-five kilometres away, 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 intercontinental hop on the twenty-minute ferry from Kas to the Greek island of Meis, where you can explore the Blue Cave and dine alfresco by the water’s edge.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
