The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region

History - The Turquoise Coast around Kalkan is steeped in history with old Lycian rock tombs, Roman amphitheatres and a sunken city for the discerning historian to explore. Various guide books are available in the apartment as well as a copy of 'The Lycian Way' by Kate Clow which features maps of rural walks around the old Lycian coastline. Must see places include Tlos, Sakklikent Gorge, Kekova (sunken city), Kale (ancient Fort), Pinar and the ruins and amphitheatres at Patara, Letoon and Xanthos. Patara is the birth place of Santa Claus and is currently undergoing excavation work to uncover its well preserved ruins underneath the sand.

Beaches - Kalkan is situated between two of the best beaches in Turkey. Kaputas, the second most photographed with its crystal clear emerald water and white sand (10 minute local bus ride), and Patara (30 minute bus ride) is a natural conservation beach where endangered Loggerhead turtles come to lay their eggs.

Scenery - The Turquoise coastline boasts spectacular views of the Mediterranean sea against the beautiful backdrop of the Taurus mountains. As you travel around it is hard not to notice the abundance of olive and pine trees, pomegranate, eucalyptus and cotton. Ancient Lycian tombs are randomly carved into the cliffs and tortoises roam freely. The most spectacular stretch of coastline is between Kalkan and Kas, and the stunning Sakklikent Gorge is nearby with its natural beauty and refreshing mountain water.

Shopping - Fethiye (1 hour by road) has a large market every Tuesday, Kalkan on a Thursday and Kas (30 minutes by road) every Friday. The nearby town of Kas has a relaxed bohemian feel to it and is definitely worth a trip.

Watersports - A full range of water sports, snorkelling, diving and kayaking can be found in and around Kalkan.

Boat Trips - Daily boat trips can be booked each morning from Kalkan or Kas harbour. Longer Gulet tours can be booked through a local travel agent.

Kalkan / Komurluk area

Kalkan is a hidden gem in the ancient region of Lycia on the South-West coast of Turkey, known as the Turquoise Coast. It is a charming, sophisticated bougainvillea covered fishing village with traditional Ottoman-style houses nestling in a breathtaking landscape between the Taurus mountains and the azure sea. Once a Greek fishing village called Kalamaki, it maintains its charm to this day with rows of cobbled streets that meander down through the whitewashed Ottoman style buildings to the harbour.

By day you can explore the quaint gift shops and galleries of the old town, have a Turkish bath or massage, take a boat trip from the harbour or have lunch in one of the many eateries which provide excellent fresh and locally produced cuisine. There is a small white pebble beach as well as a number of stylish beach clubs which are accessed by boat or free taxi service. If you prefer to escape the heat of the day, a taxi ride to the cooler mountain village of Islamlar is recommended to explore or have lunch at one of the freshwater trout farms.

At night Kalkan comes to life with shops, bars and the sounds of live jazz or Turkish music playing from candle-lit roof terrace restaurants that look out across the glowing white dome of the mosque and the harbour. Most hotels host traditional Turkish nights (open to non-residents) with belly dancing shows and buffet or barbecued food.

Komurluk, one of the best locations in Kalkan is an exclusive area affording spectacular views of the sea, ‘mouse’ and ‘snake’ islands, the old town and the picturesque harbour. Komurluk has its own chic beach club set into the cliffs below the apartment where you can sunbathe, swim, dine or relax in the bar. Komurluk is a peaceful area, yet only a ten to fifteen minute walk to the centre of town where you can find shops, restaurants, the harbour, local beach, bus station and transport to other beach clubs.

P Roberts & S Millington (London) August 2009.

“We had a fabulous time. Kalkan is a little jewel of a place and the apartment was excellent. Thank you also for all of your help prior to our holiday. We hope to go back again sometime and if we do we will hopefully book with you again. I will have no hesitation in recommending both Kalkan and your apartment to friends. Probably the best holiday we have ever had. Many thanks”.
Martin, Sheila & family (Reading) July/August 2009.

The views were picture perfect and the proximity to the town was excellent. We had a sensational time and could have stayed forever.”
Nicole & Marco (Australia) June/July 2009.

"We had a really lovely holiday and were very impressed with Kalkan and its environs.

The apartment was just right, we will certainly recommend our holiday to our family and friends".
Isobel, Charles, David & Isabel (Argyll, Scotland) June 2009.

"This was our first visit to Kalkan but feel sure we will definitely be returning! Kalkan itself is perfect for families & couples looking for a relaxing holiday away from the typical tourist resorts - quaint cobbled streets with hundreds of restaurants leading down to the harbour, all just a short walk from the apartment. The apartment was everything we were looking for - lots of space, really comfortable with lovely decor and two balconies to enjoy the stunning views! A big thank you to Wendy for all the information you provided us with before our visit, and also to your caretaker for all his assistance during our stay - We had a fantastic time!"
M Glenister & N Stimpson (Southend, Essex) June 2009.

"What a holiday! You have a beautiful apartment and some very friendly lovely people around you, Umit and Omer were very helpful and lovely people. All I can say is FANTASTIC PLACE and will need to go back at some time, so much to see and so little time to do it. Thanks for a great holiday opportunity".
Carol and John (Doncaster) May 2009.

"The apartment fully lived up to expectations and was equipped to meet every contingency, including cool bag and torch. I’m sure everyone who stays makes the same comment, but the view across the bay was absolutely stunning. It was as arresting on the last day as it had been on the first and took on a magical quality at night as splendid sunsets gave way to the twinkling lights of the town below. The apartment block must have one of the best vantage points in the whole of Kalkan. We were well looked after by Omer and Umit in particular, who couldn’t have been more welcoming. Thank you for sharing your lovely apartment and for contributing to what has been a memorable experience through your helpfulness and flexibility. We’re already passing on recommendations".
Michael & Margaret (Morpeth, Northumberland) October 2008.

"We had a super time, very hot and even the evenings were warm. We thought that your apartment was lovely and that Umit and Omer were very kind and helpful. The view was superb and very easy walking distance to town".
Anne, Laurence & family (Hampshire), October 2008.

"When you make a booking you never quite know if it measures up to its description, in this case there was no need whatsoever to be concerned, this apartment was first class, spacious, well furnished, very comfortable and with outstanding views. The pool area was absolutely fine, the apartment is close enough to town and beach clubs not to need a car. Umit and Omer were brilliant, nothing too much trouble and always helpful. This fantastic apartment made our holiday very memorable".
Pete, Diane, Liam and Vicky (Flintshire, Wales) September 2008.

"The holiday was amazing. I can honestly say it's the best apartment and location we have been to and we only wished we had gone for 2 weeks. The apartment had every amenity we could wish for and the views were definitely the best in Kalkan. Thankyou so much for letting us enjoy the wonderful apartment and have a relaxing break that we so needed".
Lisa & Chris (Kent), September 2008.

"We had a fantastic holiday in Turkey and the apartment was really great. It's so bright and spacious and you've done a superb job with the decor. As for the view...it was truly amazing. We'll never forget our breakfasts on the balcony, overlooking the sea. Umit was also very friendly and helpful. Thanks for all your tips and advice. Hopefully we'll to be in touch again and we'll certainly be recommending your apartment to all our friends"!

"Wir haben eine wunderschöne Woche in dem Apartment verbracht. Es ist sehr schön dekorativ gestaltet, so dass man sich wie zu Hause fühlt. Auch ist es sehr ruhig, da man bei den Schlafräumen keine direkten Nachbarn hat. Der Ausblick ist fantastisch und unserer Tochter hat der Pool natürlich super gefallen. Wir können das Apartment auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen und wir werden bestimmt wieder kommen.
"Our holiday was great. Our daughter liked the shops in Kalkan and the pool at the apartments. Your apartment is excellent. The view is unbelievable. Your furniture styling is the same as we like. My husband likes the Gecko.
Thank you very much for staying in your apartment. We hope to come back soon".
Monica, Tessa und Kai, (Hamburg, Germany) August 2008.

"Had a fabulous time. Loved Kalkan and thought the apartment was lovely. We could do with another week just to laze about on that lovely balcony and recover. It was a fab holiday and wish we were still there instead of being back at work in rainy England. Thanks again Wendy for everything and we hope we will be able to go back sometime".
Dave & Lin Stanley (Eccleston, Lancs) July 2008.

"We had a fantastic holiday, the apartment is truly superb with all that one could wish for AND with such magnificent views. I've been to Turkey many times over the last ten years but Number Two Komurluk Apartments is by far the most luxurious and the service from Umit and Omer exemplary. My husband wrote 2 pages of positive feedback in your visitors' book. He was so taken by Kalkan that I know we will return. My thanks to you for ensuring we had such a marvellous holiday".
Mr & Mrs Butler (West Moors, Dorset) June 2008.

Carole, Lindsay, Peter & Janet (Southsea) May 2008.

"Having been on holiday to Turkey many times in the past we can honestly say that this one was the best. Kalkan is a beautiful place and Number Two Komurluk Apartments is without doubt one of the prime locations in the area, the apartment itself was superb in every way. The furnishings, the fittings, the decor, the layout, in fact the lot. The only problem was that at the end of two weeks we had to come home! If we choose to holiday in Turkey again we wouldn't dream of looking anywhere else".
Stephen and Frances (Birmingham) October 2007 and September 2009.

"Just a note to say how much we enjoyed your apartment. Fabulous view, great location. The apartment was very comfortable and your caretaker delightful and most helpful".

The Donaghy family (Prestatyn, Denbighshire) August 2007.

"Wonderful, idyllic, peaceful, we felt like we were in heaven. It was the most relaxing holiday we've ever had! Your apartment was superb and so well-equipped. We didn't want to come home we had such a wonderful holiday, and would recommend it to anyone. Just wished we could have swung the 2 weeks! Nevertheless we definitely will be going again if you would kindly allow us to use your lovely apartment some other time".
