大きなプライベートプールとシービューの豪華なヴィラ

Barbara and Neil bought Villa Olive in 2005 from a builder who had intended to live in the property. Bizzarely this was the first time we had been to Turkey and Kalkan had been recommended to us. We spent a week up and down the coast and settled for this Villa after a remarkably short time - Neil has taken a year to buy a car but bought the villa in only 6 days! We recently retired so plan to spend a bit more time in Turkey.
We rent out the villa as this helps with the running costs and also for others to enjoy the spacious villa, large swimming pool and lovely views. Our children visit regularly with groups of friends to rest and relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Kalkan was a fishing village with steep mountains as a backdrop. The villas have lovely views of the bay and building is likely to be limited because of the terrain. Kalkan is an hour and a half from Dalaman Airport but this means that it has stayed unspoilt - we have flown into Antalya and taken the mountain route to Kalkan which is spectacular or driven round the coast which is amazing. The season is longer than most people realise as the sun is really warm until November and the spring comes early to Kalkan.
We love the restaurants in Kalkan. You eat on the terrace roofs looking out over the harbour and the bay with brightly coloured bougainvillea The food is superb and reasonably priced and the Turkish people speak excellent English and are so friendly.

Villa Olive is a large villa which can accommodate 10 people with ease as the rooms are large and airy and there are many places to get away from each other if you need some peace and quiet. There are 2 roof terraces with furniture and a bottom garden with a hammock under an olive tree surrounded by frangipane and bougainvillia. The swimming pool is a big feature as it is very large for a private villa and you are not overlooked by other holidaymakers. Those guests who like to barbecue can enjoy dining outside by the pool.
We also have an excellent mangement company run by Elena & Sedat. We have had countless emails from our guests who have enjoyed their holiday and have praised them for their unfailing courtesy and efficiency. They are brilliant and a huge asset.
