The pristine pool deck is furnished with days beds for ten guests and fluttering parasols.

Inside, the ground floor is home to the roomy open plan living space. Villa Ece enjoys bright-white interiors punctuated by grey and yellow homey furnishings.

The sitting and dining room overlooks the indigo sea and pool terrace providing a wonderful inside space to gather, if respite from the sun is required.

Delve beyond the initial first attraction and discover absolute authenticity. Make time to experience the local heritage, sleepy mountain villages sit out of sight inland. A few of the closest are Islamar, Saribelen and Bezirgan. The natural scenery is spectacular and the culture thought provoking. These hidden corners are where a true taste of Turkey can be enjoyed. Many hours can be squandered in tiny village shops where they sell the most authentic and delicious rose-water Turkish Delight and heady scented spices. Visit simple lokanta style restaurants and eat local delicacies at local prices. Make time to stop off at a cay garden and listen to the hum of activity, the fluttering of cards, clattering of dice, as well of course as the slurping of Turkish Cay. The region is a haven for ramblers, historical and archaeological enthusiasts. The Lycian Way Walking Trail has been considered one of the ten best walks in the world. This 300 mile stretch is an ancient trail and mule road. On foot, discover many remote Lycian rock tombs, roman roads, aqueducts and ancient classical sites accompanied by dramatic views from virtually every direction. Ancient sites are in abundance in this region and with so many within a short drive of Kalkan it is easy to combine a morning at perhaps Tlos with an afternoon relaxing by the pool. Back to the coast, one of the most sought after holiday experiences in Turkey is to cruise on a traditional wooden gulet. A truly relaxing journey with the freedom to set your own pace. Whether the decision is to embark in Kalkan, Kas or even Kekova a succession of memorable seascapes await, remote coves, rugged peninsulas, little villages and thriving harbour towns. There are many stops for swimming, snorkelling and some vessels even have non-motorised water sports. Lunch is usually served aboard, freshly prepared in the galley, and raved about as one of the holiday culinary highlights. On those days when relaxing hangtime is all that is needed, there are many waterside options to pick from. Bare-foot beach clubs pepper the shoreline and offer an upmarket experience with lots of facilities making it easy to relax by the water’s edge. If an ‘actual beach’ is more enticing than bathing platforms, there is the public beach in the centre. Within a 15 minute drive of Kalkan, Kaputas and Patara are worthy of expedition. Both justly famous, Kaputas is often featured on the front of travel guides for its luminous turquoise waters and Patara celebrated for its classical ancient site and never ending golden sands.
