Overview
Villa Gunes is a luxurious three-bedroom villa in the mountainside resort of Ovacık. Resting in a tranquil and quiet spot, it has the most beautiful views over the valley, the surrounding mountains and the sea below. You’re only ten minutes’ drive from Fethiye where you’ll find a harbour lined with restaurants, shops and markets selling fresh produce, alongside renowned cultural sites.
The Turkish villa elegantly combines traditional Mediterranean architecture with comfortable, modern interiors. Outside, the building has classic whitewashed walls and feature columns, while inside the rooms are light, airy and spacious with cream-coloured furnishings. With a fully-equipped kitchen, Wi-Fi throughout and air conditioning, it’s designed for a real home-from-home experience.
The views from the villa’s pool – maple and cedar trees littered along the hillside – will make you want to up sticks and explore the rural surrounds. Sun loungers and a shaded al fresco dining area complete the serene set up, along with rustic stone walls and gardens dotted with plants and shrubs. You can take a cooling dip in the crystal-clear waters before finding your prime sunbathing spot.
All the rooms are equally stylish and inviting. From both the kitchen and lounge, there are doors leading out onto the patio and pool area with stunning views over the valley. The lighted staircase leads onto the first floor where there are two double bedrooms complete with fitted wardrobes and en-suite bathrooms. On the second floor, there’s another double bedroom with an en-suite. All of the bedrooms at Villa Gunes have balconies, so you enjoy your morning coffee with tranquil vistas.
Ovacık is Hisaronu’s sleepy neighbour. It’s overlooked by the colossal Babadag Mountain, surrounded by lush pine forests and offers distant views across Oludeniz Bay. Decamp to sunny stretches of sandy beaches or get your fill of ancient history. The perfect place for a family-friendly holiday – impressive ruins nestle in the hills, while the shore's studded with bays and beaches.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa GunesOvacık is a picturesque village in the Fethiye district, South West Turkey. It’s a popular holiday destination due to its friendly and welcoming atmosphere and serene location, suiting those looking for some peace and quiet, yet still wishing to be within easy reach of the lively nearby resorts. With Hisaronu (5 minutes), Oludeniz (10 minutes) and Fethiye (15 minutes) away, it’s an ideal base from where you can easily explore the region or simply lay back and soak up the beautiful surroundings.
In Hisaronu village, you’ll find local restaurants and bars where you can try authentic Turkish cuisine like Köfte, served with yoghurt. There’s also an open-air market on Mondays for picking up fresh local food and handmade goods. Further afield in Oludeniz, you can swim in the famous blue lagoon or relax on Beach with crystal-clear waters and soft, white sands.
In the vibrant port town of Fethiye, you’ll find a shopping centre, alongside more shops and cultural sites. Head to the restaurant-lined harbour or the 4th-century B.C. Tomb of Amyntas. There’s also a fish market and a Tuesday market where you can sample delicious gözleme (thin dough crepes). Then, finish off your day at one of the Turkish Baths for a relaxing massage or detox in the sauna.
For fun family-friendly day trips, you can visit Butterfly Valley (about 24km from Fethiye) – a nature reserve that’s home to diverse butterfly species – or one of the may water parks in the area.

Fethiye
Situated on the ancient city of Telmessos, Fethiye is named after one of its most famous ‘sons’, the aviator Fethi Bey. An earthquake in 1957 damaged central Fethiye, so many of its buildings have been built since then.You can, however, see a Lycian theatre, Lycian tombs (including the rock tomb of Amyntas) and visit the Fethiye museum for more history and artefacts. The centre of Fethiye boasts a covered market area, half of which is given over to the local fish market where you can choose your catch from one of the centre stalls and then get it cooked in any of the surrounding restaurants. The whole of the area is shadowed by the mountain of Babadag where paragliders take to the skies, landing on the beach at Olu Deniz.
Fethiye’s Tuesday market is worth a visit. Traders come from the outlying villages to sell the wares from their smallholdings. Furrowed browed men with cloth caps, and ladies in floral bloomers will sell their produce amongst the lads trying to get you to buy their designer fakes! It’s all in good humour. Try a little bartering and see if you can do some good business. Go to the spice stall and you will get some amazing spices. Look for the Kar Serbeti, like a cinnamon slush or Ayran, a salty yoghurt drink both guaranteed to cool you down.
Olu Deniz & Calis are where people tend to flock for a beach but there are now a few private beach clubs along the coast between Olu Deniz and Fethiye which are worth a visit. There are also beach clubs situated around the lagoon, all with sunbeds, restaurants and drinks service. Hisaronu is more commercialised and hosts a large selection of bars, restaurants and gift shops.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Gunes has a private swimming pool, which is enclosed by a stone wall, meaning it's great for younger children to play safely and in sight. Fethiye region is well-known for it’s idyllic swimming beaches and fantastic selection of water sports including renowned scuba diving and snorkelling – perfect for keeping kids of all ages occupied and happy.
There’s a family-friendly beach at Ölüdeniz Lagoon with calm waters – ideal for young swimmers – and opportunities to go on a paddle boat or go kayaking. It’s also a protected national park (Ölüdeniz Tabiat Parkı) and there are also a couple of waterparks in the area for a fun day out too. Oludeniz is also a famous paragliding centre. ~
In Fethiye itself, there’s a range of interesting ruins that promise an interesting day out for children (and adults alike). You can visit Tlos, an ancient ruined Lycian hilltop or you can take a boat trip to Gemiler Island with remains of several 4th-century churches. For outdoor adventures, families can go horseriding or trekking on the nearby Lycian Way.
