The travel industry is changing, and this is something we have particularly observed during the pandemic. Holidaymakers’ attitudes are also changing, leaning more towards the safety, hygiene and privacy of luxury villas. Luxury villas are notable for their beautiful grounds, extraordinary views, incredible locations and luxe interiors. The freedom and spaciousness that comes with a villa holiday are second to none. Also, you have exclusive use of all facilities and can live comfortably as you would in your own home. Furthermore, you have the flexibility to set your own schedule, eat breakfast at your own leisure and sleep whenever you choose. In short, villas are elite havens where you can customise your holiday experience in upscale surroundings and tranquillity.
Kalkan – the Turkish Riviera at its best.
You will not fail to be charmed by the enchanting town of Kalkan which is situated in a tranquil spot on the Lycian coast, far from the throng of mass tourism. In Kalkan, the old is paired with the new to great effect. The Old Town is populated by authentic Greek buildings embellished with bright fuchsia-coloured bougainvillaea, while further out on the slopes of the town centre you find spacious contemporary villas. With the backdrop of the crystal-clear azure sea enveloped by mountains, this town is a remarkable setting for a sophisticated holiday. Offering a high-end holiday environment which combines boating, beach clubs and very fine dining, far away from the more touristic-aimed resorts means this self-contained holiday sanctuary will provide you with a deluxe experience. Read on to discover the top 5 luxury villas that call the Turkish Riviera their home.

For the 2022 season, a spectacular spa and leisure area has been added within the grounds incorporating a gym, cinema room and sauna. All this set in beautiful mature gardens surrounded by stone walls gives the villa high levels of both luxury and privacy.
