The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region


Turunc is the most beautiful village with the perfect combination of Turkish tradition and modern amenities. Surrounded by mountains and nestling in the warm Aegean Sea it provides the perfect location for a relaxing holiday. The beach has Blue Flag status and is ideal for children.
All bars and restaurants are within walking distance. Larger resorts of Marmaris and Ichmeler can be reached by water taxis or bus but are a million miles away from the idyllic fishing village of Turunc.
The Turunc area
The small village of Turunc caters well for all ranges of holiday makers. It has the charm and appeal of a small fishing village with friendly people but also has enough activities to keep even the most active person busy. Our local agent can arrange any trip you require and is on hand to help at any time.
Should you have older teenagers who wish to night club in Marmaris they will escort them there and back and keep a watchful eye on them. We can arrange boat trips along the beautiful coast as well as diving, water sports, water park and not forgetting the fantastic Turkish Bath (Hamman)
Once you go to Tununc you will return year after year.

The accommodation couldn't have been better, spacious, clean and more than accommodated our group of ten whose ages ranged from 20 months to 72 years!! The location was great for us as the views were fantastic and we liked being near the hills, away from the centre of Turunc. The resort itself was great with enough for all o us. The agents couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. Overall a fantastic holiday enjoyed by all of the group. |

We stayed at the Villa Botanika from the 10th of September for a week. Our party consisted of 8 adults and we all found the Villa to be very spacious and tastefully decorated. There were 3 beds that were not even used. The Villa has everything one could want for a holiday of this type. It is well situated in a quiet part of Turunc but well within walking distance of the beach and numerous bars and restaurants. The transfer from the airport was all arranged and the agent was always available should we need him. The owners had excellent communication throughout the booking procedure and I would recommend this Villa highly. |

This was my third visit to Villa Botanika and I can't wait to go again! The Villa is lovely. It's relatively new, and it comes with everything that we needed to have a great, hassle free holiday. It is found at the back of Turunc, well within strolling distance to the quiet, friendly highstreet area of the old village. Villa Botanika feels homely and cosy inside, despite its big size. Turunc is located far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Marmaris, but close enough to catch a cheap lift into the city whenever it's needed - travelling by water taxi was fun and provided some beautiful views along the way. I spent a night out in Marmaris too which was good fun. There were plenty of things to do in and around the area when we weren't to busy basking in the hot sun. I found it really enjoyable just to laze around the private pool all day and have a BBQ in the evening. The people of Turunc are great. They are generally kind, helpful people (and they all speak pretty good English which is handy!). I'm looking forward to staying in the villa again next year. Luke |
Guestbook for Villa Botanika
We are a day home and missing Turunc already! Thank you so much for the use of your lovely house. It was a perfect holiday in every way. Lovely, clean, spacious, modern and you have catered for every need. The kids had a fantastic time and as you indicated they have met so many new friends and have been busy on Facebook and MSN since we have returned!! Mr & Mrs Watts July
We had a fantastic time. Weather very hot and the villa was fabulous. Huge and plenty of room. Ali and his team were very helpful and we will recommend your villa to all our family and friends. People in the village were very polite without being too overbearing. A perfect holiday. Family Group Aug
Superb villa with excellent scenery in a fantastic location.People in the town are very friendly with Ali and his company being extremely helpful. Thank you for making our holiday great in every way. Albone and Wysing families - Aug
Fantastic villa, great company, loved the town and the people. All in all a brilliant holiday!! Thanks for everything. Josh Simpson Oct 2010
Superb villa with wonderful roomy accommodation. The location is idyllic and peaceful, yet within easy reach of good restaurants and bars, with friendly service. The beach and shops are also a short walk away. We will certainly be returning! Frank and Elsie Hailstone April 2009&2010
The villa was luxurious and the location stunning! It’s definitely a place where you can come to chill out. Everyone in Turunc is so friendly and welcoming. Somewhere we would come back to again and again. The Roberts family Summer 2010
Superb villa – great holiday with wonderful company. We didn’t want to leave! Thank you for everything. The Norris family Summer 2009
Excellent in everyway. Fantastic villa, lovely scenery. Ali was awesome. In everyway a great holiday. The Grieve family Oct 2008
Fab holiday with best friend ever. Great villa & pool, fab food! The Hemleys Summer 2008
Loved your villa & really helpful little extras like transfers & hairdryer. Great place and great people. Ali & gang couldn’t have been more helpful. Well worth hiring a car or getting a driver to take you to hypermarket to stock up rather than all the trips to the little shops. Traditional haman was great fun, private boat trip fantastic – we had to do that twice! Great diving and snorkelling, try tubey riding & banana boat, jeep safari super fun – laughing all day! Had good nights at green garden, but korfez favourite restaurant for us. Will be back. The Bostridges Summer 2009
Great holiday had by all of us, food at Fidan’s restaurant was the best in the village. Turkish breakfast at Asparin’s is worth every penny. Boat trip was also excellent & try snorkelling / scuba diving was an excellent experience not to forget. Locals are lovely & friendly, Ali & boys were attentive, informative & delightful. The villa is spacious & very tastefully decorated with great views. Great for family holidays & we will be back. The haman was the best occasion & the nightclubs are a must! Crowthorne Girls September 08&09
Top villa for our family of 9. Loved Turunc, unspoilt & peaceful. Brilliant holiday had by all. The villa had everything we needed, just a shame the road to & from isn’t very accessible. More lights at night would have helped the journey home. Ali & gang were more than helpful. Very friendly & saw we got everything we needed. Thanks again. The Reats , Connetts & Fosseys Aug 1010
Excellent villa, very homely. Pasha restaurant first class, also people very friendly – can’t do enough for you. Boat trip great. John Gallacher July 2010
