We had a wonderful time, thank you, and are certainly NOT happy about being home...the 2 weeks flew by!
The apartment worked really well for us, mainly because it was equidistant between the front and the back of the resort as any higher up and the walk in 35 degree heat would have been too much, despite the bus service. It's a great time of year to be there and we effectively had the top pool / tennis court all to ourselves for most of the holiday...and the bathing platforms were even better than the photos suggested!
We'll definitely recommend it to friends and family.
Thanks very much,
Ben and Kim.
What a fantastic find! it was so romantic, we loved the four poster bed, the apartment had everything we could wish for, so cosy! Thank you we will be back!
Diana & Pip
When we first saw the Resort and the Ottoman Suite at 0100 in the morning, we knew we were going to have a great relaxing and chilling out holiday together after being apart from each other since January.
Superlatives and clichés aside, we went to Kalkan in early October as the temperature was cooler at 27C, we had wall to wall sunshine every day with little offshore breeze, so it was comfortable for both of us.
We enjoyed everything, from the delicious seafood in several restaurants, to the bazaar in Kalkan on both Thursdays we were there.
Our sincere thanks to you, Sarah, for fielding all my many questions, right down to the electrical plug type (!) We would love to revisit Kalkan again, so many things still to see and do.
In all honesty, we have never, ever had such a wonderfully relaxing and peaceful break...beautiful and quiet, no loud music, no screaming kids, just the two of us together...just great!
