Beautiful villa in stunning location
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009

We stayed at Villa Kahili in July 2009 and had a fantastic holiday. The villa is beautifully furnished with amazing views, very well equipped and within easy walking distance into the centre of Kalkan. The walk back is much harder, being uphill but it kept us fit and worked off all those wonderful meals that we had in Kalkan's many restaurants!
We hired a car for the middle 9 days of our stay and managed well without one for the other days as the taxis are very cheap and there is lots to do in Kalkan. We would recommend both Kaputas and Patara beaches - both beautiful but very different. We also enjoyed Salklikent Gorge, the ruins at Xanthos and Kas (where we bought a carpet). We also took a moonlight boat trip from Kalkan harbour and enjoyed seeing life in the country villages inland, only a short drive from Kalkan.
The villa was also very well looked after during our stay, with the pool area being cleaned twice a day and the villa itself, twice a week. Nothing was ever too much trouble.
All in all, we were very pleasantly surprised by our stay in Kalkan, this being the first time we had been to Turkey. The locals are all very friendly, with service second to none. The food is also excellent as are the many lovely shops. It is a resort that is suitable for couples and families.
The villa owners also handled our booking very efficiently and everything was arranged perfectly for us. We have no hesitation in recommending Villa Kahili as a great location for a holiday in Kalkan.
