Villa Sarafin Turkey

Five-bedroomed Villa Sarafin is a luxury hideaway in the laid-back town of Bitez in Turkey. Perched on the hillside, this modern sea-facing villa boasts sleek lines and unrivalled coastal views. It’s perfect for a family or group stay. The pool and garden terrace is set for sunbathing and relaxing. By day, cool off in the private infinity pool – while enjoying those views of the bay – or sprawl out on a soft, grassy spot – holiday read in hand. By night, it’s a dramatic spot for evening meals or for sipping cocktails. A charming wooden alfresco dining table, cushioned corner seating area and outdoor barbeque are thoughtful added extras – while a tranquil atmosphere comes as standard.
Inside, this villa is modern and bright, with comfortable décor and floor-to-ceiling windows. Wood and natural-stone interiors add a rustic edge to the villa’s clean architecture, while traditional features like kilims – classic rugs – add homely touches. The kitchen, living and dining area on the first floor is flooded with natural light, and has direct access to the pool terrace. It’s also fully-equipped with everything you’ll need for a self-catering stay, and there’s a bathroom on this floor.
On the ground floor, is another living room, along with three of the bedrooms – one twin and two single rooms – and two bathrooms, so there’s plenty of space for everyone to be around each other or have some time out. Going up a level, you’ll find the double en-suite master, which benefits from its own terrace, as well as plenty of storage space. There’s air conditioning throughout this villa. With bustling Bodrum a short 10-minute drive away too, Villa Sarafin is ideally placed for rest in between exploring the beautiful local area. In Bodrum, head to one of the colourful markets for everything from fresh produce to hand-made souvenirs, snap pictures of the exciting historical sites like Bodrum Castle or try some top-notch food like fresh seafood or hearty mezes. There are also plenty of Blue Flag Beaches and action-packed watersports in the area – win, win.
Villa Sarafin is in the sleepy Turkish town of Bitez on Turkey’s southern coast. Although it’s only a 10-minute drive from the country’s bustling capital of Bodrum, it still retains traditional laidback charm. Think classic white-washed houses, draped in bougenvilla, and a bay lined with wooden fishing boats. When you’re not lazing on sand-and-shingle Bitez Beach or strolling around the citrus groves, stop for lunch at one of the waterfront restaurants and watch the world go by.
For a livelier scene, Bodrum Town is your go-to. The capital boasts everything from a beautiful marina to colourful markets. It’s also a must-visit for history lovers. Not only is it the site of one of the Wonders of the Ancient World – the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus – but it’s also home to the Museum of Underwater Archaeology. Here you can see ancient treasures recovered from sunken ships, and two reconstructed shipwrecks – one dating from the Bronze Age. If you’re on the hunt for souvenirs or food for cooking back at the villa instead, the bazaars are an excellent choice. There you’ll find stalls selling everything from hand-made rugs and leather goods to fresh produce. When the sun sets, the city comes alive with live music, so it’s a great place to be.
For the sports lovers, there’s an 18-hole golf course nearby, as well as tennis courts dotted around the peninsula. You’ll also find plenty of opportunities to take part in water sports like sea kayaking, scuba diving and parasailing. Wolf’s Point – a prime spot for stingray, groupers and stonefish – is just one of the top dive sites or you could hop on a boat tour and Sail along the coast on a gulet cruise.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
