I have been to Villa Kahili numerous times, and everytime I always enjoy it. Relaxing with a beer by the pool, eating delicious food down by the harbour or sunbathing on the beach is what I call I perfect holiday. We will be back- thanks Sheila xx

Thank you Sheila for letting us stay in your wonderful Villa Kahili. This was the best villa we have ever stayed in, lots of space, tastefully decorated, good location, fantastic outside space and pool. A 10-15 min walk down to the harbour, less to nearest shops and restaurants, a steep hill so for me a taxi back to the villa after the evening meal 10-12tl. We hired a car for convenience but local transport is very good and a car is not essential. Sheila arranged transport to and from the airport and hire car, this was very helpful and everything went perfectly. Cleaners come twice a week, pool/outside cleaned daily, all lovely people, polite, friendly and unobtrusive. Kalkan is a lovely town, the villa perfect; we didn’t want to leave and hope to return. Two weeks of relaxing in a lovely location.

Beautiful villa Kahili is situated close to the centre of Kalkan - the restaurants and bars are in walking distance however you might want to get a cab back as the walk is uphill on the way home. The villa has a good size infinity pool situated in a well kept garden with lots of plants and flowers along with a shaded patio area - great for lunch and a break from the hot Kalkan sun. We would definitely use Villa Kahili again - it is a superb villa.

This place has it all, best villa i have been to. It has everything you could possibly need, a fantastic private pool with south facing sun trap for day round sun. The area by the pool was so good that most days we just relaxed by the pool. The local beaches were fantastic, recommend Kaputas beach just down the road. We enjoyed cooking at the villa, has all the mod cons and equipment you need, also gave the bbq a spin. Shiela was a brilliant host, everything was sorted for our stay, wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. We'll be back!

Loved the villa- great location and very relaxing. Only 10 minutes away from town which as numerous shops and beautiful restaurants. However if you want to have a night in the kitchen has all the necessary equipment to cook a 5 star meal, alternatively you can give a BBQ a spin. Can't wait to stay again next year.

Loved the villa. Great views and lovely to relax by the pool on the sun loungers. If you a sun worshiper- you are able to get the sun from sunrise to sunset. The villa has various books and magazine to read by the pool, and if you want a night in you can just watch a DVD and cook a lovely meal. The town is 10 minutes away from the villa and has numerous restaurants and shops- you will be spoilt for choice. Can't wait to go back.

Lovely,luxurious villa. Very well appointed inside.The attractive garden and pool have an idyllic setting with a shaded area for alfresco dining. The view over Kalkan to the sea is amazing. The property is spotlessly clean and well maintained. There are many restaurants to enjoy,nearby.

Arrived to find this lovely villa, beautifully equipped with everything we could possibly need to make our stay comfortable. So relaxing, delightful little town, with wonderful restaurants and charming people. I would be more than happy to go there again!

A beautiful villa with fabulous views, ideally located minutes from the village of Kalkan. Everything is perfectly maintained and spotlessly clean inside and out, with great attention to detail. We enjoyed returning to this calm oasis set in a delightful garden, swimming in the pristine pool and relaxing on the sun loungers, after a busy day out exploring. I can thoroughly recommend a stay here and look forward to my next visit!

Villa Kahili is a real gem, plenty of room plus generous outside space too, and very clean. An easy walk down to the town and Kalkan beach. Our teenage sons made the most of the pool, we ate outside in the evenings, and enjoyed a glorious 2 weeks relaxing. Would thoroughly recommend this home to anyone looking at staying in Kalkan. The owners are also extremely helpful and accommodating, going the extra mile to make your holiday run smoothly. We really hope to come back again in the future.

My wife and I have just returned from Kalkan and a stay at Villa Kahili. We read all the reviews before booking and the only criticism we could find was the lack of hooks behind doors. Well, I can report that this has been remedied - there is no shortage of hooks! The existing 5 Star reviews are accurate. This is a splendid villa with spectacular views across Kalkan Bay and beyond. The downside of the splendid views is of course the walk to and from the village, but I am 64 and had no difficulty. It is no more than a 10 minute walk down to the village, maximum 15 minutes to the harbour, and taxis are plentiful if you want to take the short ride back up the hill. A hire car is only required if you wish to explore further afield. Sheila organised private airport transfers on our behalf, and car hire is available from the same company, or others, if required. The accommodation can only be described as luxurious. We have rented various villas and apartments across Europe but Villa Kahili is easily of the highest standard we have found. The two "smaller" bedrooms are in fact very generously sized; the double bedroom on the ground floor has an adjacent toilet and shower and direct access to the pool terrace while the twin bedroom on the first floor has en-suite toilet and shower facilities and private balcony. The master bedroom is palatial and I defy anyone not to experience the "wow" factor each time they enter. It also has a private balcony and stunning en-suite facilities This is a beautifully bright and well presented property with easily controlled and effective air conditioning if it is required. The kitchen is very well equipped, and all three bath and shower rooms have been completely refurbished for this season. They are fabulous. Only now, as I write this review, do I realise that there was never any shortage of hot water - we have regularly experienced such shortages elsewhere in both Greece and Turkey. We'll be back to Kahili and I have no hesitation in recommending the property to others. I do not ordinarily write reviews, but this property is extraordinary and deserves a 'thank you'.

Thankyou ever so much for letting us use your villa, it was fabulous!! Kalkan and the villa are such a beautiful place! You will be pleased to know everything ran smoothly. The transfer was there, pool cleaned everyday (sometimes twice) and the cleaners came! It was all very well maintained and wonderful facilities. We enjoyed days by the pool looking out to the sea. We had a trip to the gorge and waded through to the waterfall. Caught the dolmus to patara beach and spent the afternoon there. Enjoyed a turkish bath behind the yali supermarket (surprising how nice it is inside as its hidden)! Our favourite trip had to be the boat trip, we took your advice and went with Moby Dick. The food was fantastic and we enjoyed all the bays for a swim. Our favourite restaurants have to be aubergine, kalkan kebap and alternatif! We also went to Belkin's kitchen where you can sit on cushions on the roof terrace, we enjoyed the experience rather than the food. Spoilt for choice really and we couldn't resit using the barbecue so we brought our ingredients and spices from the Thursday Market and made some kebabs! The weather was perfect, not too hot and a nice breeze. We had a strange day on Wednesday when there were some strong winds in the evening and that caused some entertainment in the restaurant!! It was a bit cloudy during the late afternoon but that cleared up by the evening. I think our only regret is perhaps hiring a car and then seeing a little more of the ruins and history of the place. Would love to visit again!

We stayed at Villa Kahili for one week at the end of August 2012 and had an amazing time there. Kalkan is a great little find, full of character and charm. The villa sits atop the hill overlooking the town and has great views from the roof terrace out across the bay to enjoy the wonderful sunsets. The villa is spacious, very clean and tidy with lovely touches like the whirlpool bath, outdoor dining areas and multiple balconies looking out to sea. The private pool and sun patio area are by far the stand-out features. The pool is maintained (daily) to a beautiful clean cool standard and perfect for when it gets too hot! And don't worry about the famous walk back up the hill, it is a bit of a climb but it's not so bad if you take it nice and slow - and great exercise. If it's too much then, like everyone else has said, you can jump in a cab for a few lira. Sheila was a very accommodating host and helped make everything very easy and relaxed, ensuring we had the best holiday imaginable. Staying at Villa Kahili made our holiday in Turkey the perfect getaway, something we will remember forever. Thanks again, James and Ottilie

We had a lovely week in this well designed fully equipped villa. The outside area for eating and relaxing is superb and so enjoyable surrounded by the colourful flowers and shrubs.The midweek clean, and change of sheets and towels was excellent and so unusual for just a one week stay.The garden/pool man was very friendly and tidied and cleaned outside daily, but was not intrusive. We discovered Kalkan four years ago and love its friendly people, interesting shops and great selection of restaurants. The nice thing is you can plan the holiday according to your requirements.You can relax and enjoy the pool and beach or if you feel more energetic there are many activities available to try.To go further afield its easy to hire a car and go off the beaten track to see and experience the remote village life. We would certainly recommend this villa to friends and family.
