Villa Lahana

About this property

Discover the charming and secluded Villa Lahana, a delightful 1-bedroom sanctuary perfect for couples. Nestled on the mountainside in the serene village of Islamlar, this private villa is just a short 15-minute drive from Kalkan. Enjoy the luxury of your own pool and outdoor terrace, where you can relax and soak in the breathtaking surroundings.

There is plenty to enjoy outside, with the spacious pool complemented by sun loungers, seating, a dining area and barbecue. The 6m x 3m pool has a cascading waterfall feature, and there is LED and wall lighting to set the mood in the evening. You also have a suspended egg chair and a football table, just outside the patio doors.

Step inside and you’ll find an attractive living space offering comfy seating with a corner sofa, a flatscreen Smart TV and another dining area. The kitchen forms part of this open-plan space, giving you all you could need including a dishwasher, microwave, fridge freezer, gas hob and electric oven, as well as a breakfast bar. Air conditioning and Wi-Fi are also found at Villa Iahana.

A bedroom with king-size bed is found on the same level, with direct access to the terrace and lots of storage space in the large wardrobe. The highlight, however, is the in-room hot tub in the corner – a real luxury to look forward to. Additionally, there is a stylish bathroom with a large shower.

You will be conveniently close to local shops and restaurants, with Islamlar’s village centre, just a few minutes’ drive away. The laidback coastal town of Kalkan is easy to reach in around 15 minutes – you will find a Blue Flag pebble beach there and a charming Old Town, as well a big choice of restaurant terraces making the most of their sea views.

On Turkey’s south-western coast, the town of Kalkan is a visitor favourite. A traditional town that has resisted overdevelopment, it’s a relaxed place with a pretty pebble beach and Old Town streets that are made for wandering.

At the foot of the Taurus Mountains, Kalkan is known for its many of its rooftop restaurants and bars which enjoy stunning Mediterranean views. The hospitality is warm here, and the menus are packed with temptation – from locally caught fish and seafood to traditional Turkish dishes, you will find something to your taste. There are lots of restaurant terraces to choose from in the area around the harbour, so this is a good place to begin.

Beside the harbour, Kalkan’s beach is a nice spot to soak up some sun, but if pebbles aren’t your thing, the area’s most popular sandy beaches are not too far away. Accessible by bus, or a 20-minute drive away, the super-long Patara is one of them.  Along the coast you will also find various beach clubs offering water sports, pools and dining among other attractions.

The town is located on the route of the Lycian Way, Turkey’s most popular long-distance walking trail, so you may want to plan some excursions ahead of time. You won’t need to go far from some sporting activity, especially those which take place on the water. Kalkan is ideal for sea kayaking, jet-skiing, paddleboarding and scuba diving to name a few – even if you’re a total beginner, there is sure to be a chance to learn.

Kalkan prides itself on a hassle-free shopping experience, and you will see all sorts of crafts, carpets, clothes, antiques and more on sale around the Old Town. As well as a good range of shops, you will find stalls around town, with the main market day being Thursday.

Take a look at the harbour and you are sure to see plenty of eye-catching wooden gulets – these boats are often to be found taking visitors on cruises around the area, or perhaps visiting the mysterious sunken town of Kekova, a once prosperous city which is now completely underwater.
