Overview
For luxurious comfort in a beautiful seafront location, choose five-bedroomed Villa Timur near Kalkan town, on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast. The villa exudes modern style with large, open-plan spaces and natural-coloured contemporary furnishings. It’s in a peaceful location with breath-taking views of Kalamar Bay and is only a short walk from the sandy shoreline and the turquoise sea.
The building fuses classic Mediterranean and modern style. The main stand-out feature is the outdoor pool area with beautiful cool stone terraces that extend to the front and side of the property and a garden area with a hammock for a shady siesta & a bar area to cool off with a cocktail. We must give an honourable mention to the charming outdoor al fresco dining area too with views out over the sea and the garden area, where pretty bougainvillaea flowers and plants creep up the rustic-looking walls.
Stepping inside the villa, you’ll find the large, bright open-plan kitchen, living and dining room, equipped with modern facilities including an oven, microwave and fridge freezer. There are also comfortable sofas for you to kick back on after a day of sunbathing or exploring, a satellite TV and DVD player for entertainment evenings, and a dining area for when you would like to eat in.
The villa boasts five bedrooms; three spacious king-size bedrooms, a doubles and a twin. The bedrooms have sea view balconies and ample fitted wardrobe storage for storing your swimwear and holiday attire. The master bedroom also has a serene Jacuzzi bath with sea views and twin sinks for a spa-like experience. One bedroom is an annexe, below the terrace area with it's own entrance. Together with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout the villa, the facilities at Villa Timur are second to none.
With the Kalamar Beach club just a short walk away, and a 20 minute walk to Kalkan's cobbled streets for roof top restaurants and snazzy bars, Villa Timur is an excellent choice not only for families with children but also for those who want to explore the rich cultural heritage and natural beauty of this idyllic part of Turkey.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa TimurSitting pretty in an elevated position at the end of a quiet road in Kalamar Bay, Villa Timur is in a wonderful location. From the villa, you have easy access to the Kalamar Bay Beach Club, around 150 metres away, in fact just across the road from the villa are steps that leads down to Kalamar Bay.
In Kalkan centre, a short walk from the villa, you’ll find vibrant roof top restaurants, quaint boutiques and cocktail bars. The town sits on the Turkish Mediterranean coast and has a backdrop of the stunning pine tree-lined Taurus Mountains. At Kalkan's weekly market you can pick up everything from fresh produce to handmade souvenirs. Later you could visit a traditional Turkish bath for a relaxing massage or have lunch at one of the many beach clubs. By night there’s the charming cobbled streets of Kalkan, where you can wander the whitewashed streets and visit the quirky shops and boutiques, dining at one of many rooftop restaurants underneath the twinkling stars.
For outdoor adventuring , the Taurus Mountains can be explored via the popular Lycian Way – a trail that traverses the coast from Kayakoy to Antalya. Kalkan Bus Station is within walking distance of the villa – for venturing further afield to nearby places like Patara, Xanthos or Saklikent Gorge. You can book days out such as exploring the 'sunken city' of Kekova by boat, canoeing or horseriding on Patara's sandy beach. There are also plenty of swimming beaches in and near Kalkan including Kaputas Beach ideal places to swim and snorkel or Patara, which has 12km of sandy beach. You can also take part in water sports like scuba diving, jet skiing or take a boat trip on a Turkish Gulet, stopping in various bays and enjoying a hearty lunch cooked on board, experiencing the full beauty of the coast.
If it gets too hot in Kalkan, escape up to the mountains and enjoy a trout lunch, fried village cheese and the freshest of rocket in one of Islamlar's many restaurants.

Kalkan
Kalkan has become boutique resorts, with cobbled streets and converted Greek houses, which belonged to the Greek merchants before the exchange of population in the 1920’s. Once quiet fishing harbours these days you are more likely to see traditional wooden gulets taking tourists to soak up rays on the sparkling turquoise Mediterranean. A boat trip is a must do, from the boat you can snorkel and usually a delicious lunch is prepared on board. Keen walkers should check out the Lycian way for designated walking paths in the area.
You cannot come to this area without spending some time exploring the many Lycian sights, such as Xanthos, Patara, Myra or the sunken city of Kekova.
Patara is said to be where democracy started (they excavated stone voting block) and is also said to be the birthplace of St Nicholas, who became bishop at nearby Myra. The ruins here include an ancient theatre, city walls, government build and agora. The lighthouse on the site is said to be the earliest of its kind. Visit Patara in the late afternoon and finish the trip with a drink on the sandy beach watching the amazing sunset.
The Salikent Gorge is a great place to visit, especially if you want to cool off in the fresh waters whilst walking up the gorge. For the more energetic there are rafts and rings to ride the flowing waters. Further down you can enjoy a day canoeing toward the beach.
Islamlar sits 8 km above Kalkan. Once the place Kalkan folk went to cool off at one of the trout farms built to make use of the mountain’s springs. Today Islamlar houses many a villa, enjoyed by Istanbul Turks who prefer a holiday in slightly cooler and cleaner air. Here the locals grow grapes and pomegranates, but you’ll mainly see the men sat gossiping next to the local teahouse. The trout farms remain a place to come for a wonderful fresh meal, or a breakfast consisting of fresh local fare. The rocket will be the freshest & most tasty you’ve ever had; and the fresh chips cooked in olive oil take some beating.
By night both Kalkan and Kas come alive. Kas has more of a bohemian feel, people ambling through the cobbled streets, passing the ancient tomb in the street, haggling for textiles, carpets and other goodies, maybe stopping for the traditional Turkish ‘maras’ ice cream, a tulip-shaped glass of tea or a wonderful kebab in the shadow of the mosque. Most of the villas in Kas are just out of town on the Cukurbag Peninsula. A reasonable (5km) taxi or Dolmus (local bus) ride into town. Be sure to try the Piyaz, a white bean salad with tahini sauce.
Travelling along the coast, towards Kalkan you pass the modern marina, the children’s beach park (run by the local hotel school) and halfway to Kalkan the stunning Kaputas Beach, cut in a gorge with all different shades of turquoise in the sea.
Kalkan is a more sophisticated resort, with the villas built onto the mountainside. Evening are spent enjoying the rooftop restaurants, perched on the top of the old ‘konak’ houses. Then wandering to a seaside bar for a cocktail, after shopping for glass lanterns, Iznik pottery, handbags or pestemel towel. Do visit the ‘pastane’, local patisseries which do the most delicious morning pastries and you must try the ‘Gozleme’ pancakes at the Thursday market.
Other things to do in the area include scuba diving as the visibility is excellent, paragliding, horseriding on Patara Beach or kayaking around the sunken ruins at Kekova.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesWith a private swimming pool and located within walking distance of a sandy beach and Kalkan’s town centre, Villa Timur is an ideal villa for families with children. Thoughout Kalkan there are small children's play grounds so the young ones can use up their energy. It's key to note if the children are still in pushchairs Kalkan's steep cobbled streets may be a challenge.
At the nearby Kalamar beach club you’ll find plenty of opportunities to take part in water sports including scuba diving, jet ski and snorkelling. There are also lovely family-friendly beaches that have sheltered and calm waters that are ideal for swimming, including Kalkan's pebble beach & Kaputas Beach.
For adventurous types, Canoeing the Xanthos river, ringos at Saklikent or Horseriding at Patara are options. All ages enjoy a day at sea in a traditional Turkish Gulet one of Kalkan's best days out and a way to appreciate the natural beauty of the coastline.You can book a trip to the underwater ruins of Dolchiste, on the northern side of the island of Kekova.
There are plenty more outdoor activities to keep all entertained. Families can go trekking on the nearby Lycian Way – a myriad of walking paths that take you to top sites including Kayakoy ghost town (an abandoned Greek village).
One thing that will be apparent is Turks are family orientated and love to welcome children to their restaurants or other businesses. The perfect place for a family holiday.

Absolutely Fantastic
Incredible views, brilliant comfort and the pool overlooking the see and hills is exceptional. Whilst this is a 5 bedroom villa and would comfortably accommodate 10 people it also works very well for couples as the property is so well apportioned. The villa is immaculately clean with all amenities needed. After a delayed flight the owner even stayed at the property until 1am to welcome us and ensure that we settle in properly.
I can't speak highly enough of the villa or location and this is a perfect little piece of luxury. -
Wonderful
Had a wonderfully relaxing stay at Villa Timur in July. The villa was immaculate and caterered for all our needs. We ended up spending most of our evenings cooking on the barbecue and having an evening swim in the pool. What a view to wake up to as well as watch the sunset by!
Surrounding area has lots of explore - Kaputas and Patara beaches, ancient ruins and boat trips from Kalkan harbour. Perfect accommodation for a seaside holiday in Turkey! -
