Ask a questionAbout Gill Knight
Hello, to you all, our villa Icarus Heights, is owned by Gill and Ronnie. The family fell in love with the Turquoise coast 25 years ago and have the distinction within our family of being the first British couple to marry in nearby Kalkan, which was no mean feat in 1993! Further regular visits discovered that other parts of the southwest coast of Turkey and in particular Gocek was even more beautiful. Our villa's name was inspired by local legends of the Göcek region. We are now able to quietly share these delights with those who appreciate a beautiful, homely villa set in breath taking surroundings that is just a stones throw away from a quaint picturesque Turkish village, leading to mouth watering quayside restaurants and shops set in the backdrop of a spectacular marina.
Gill Knight purchased this Villa in 2006
Why Gill Knight chose Gocek
We bought our villa in 2006 after falling in love with the view of the bay, and the panorama of mountain and forest. We find it an ideal place to be, just 25 minutes from Dalaman airport through the tunnel, but shielded by the mountains from the sight and sound of aircraft. The villa is a 20-minute leisurely and level stroll into the heart of the harbour village of Göcek, which we find has most of the day to day essentials that you need on offer, plus a dollop of shops designed for retail therapy should you so choose. Whilst being within easy reach of a fabulous coast of hidden beaches, islands, forests, lakes, mountains, and rivers, enabling you to explore the culture and history of the area. Göcek as you sit on our terrace is a unique place to be, with all it’s natural beauty around you.
What makes this Villa unique
We have made a conscious effort to furnish our villa as a family home rather than just a rental villa. The disabled facilities were planned by a disabled architect, including a pool with a hoist. We hope that we have added those missing comforts that we too, would expect when on holiday. For us, one of the definite pluses is that Göcek is only 20 km from the airport, the flight time from the UK being less than four hours. So within half an hour of arrival you will find yourself in beautiful surroundings, and you could be enjoying breathtaking views, glorious weather, and a swim in the pool, all in this tranquil corner of the Turquoise Coast of Turkey. Over the years we have made many friends in Göcek, including our friendly representative Mehmet, and his helpful family, who will ensure your comfort and welcome. We hope to see you at Icarus Heights and thank you for viewing here.
