This villa is pretty amazing. The first thing that gets you is the views of both Kalamar and Kalkan bays. The pool is huge, the jacuzzi is great and there is an ottoman area if you want to chill in the shade. The villa is well appointed, and should you have a problem the owner is very responsive, and friendly. Nothing was a problem. Actually it was pretty hard to drag ourselves away. We even arranged food and drinks to be delivered by a local supermarket. Kalkan is quite a special place, do go to a rooftop restaurant and wander the streets of an evening. Do visit one of the beach clubs and also do a boat trip. Patara beach has a great sunset too. We used taxis to and from the villa, they were less than £5 and very efficient, plus nice drivers. Just going back to the villa, Villa Kekik is pretty special, so shhhsh, please keep it to yourself.....
