About this property
Villa Pilanta is a stylish six-bedroom retreat in Kalkan’s Ortaalan area, perfect for families and groups of up to 12. Surrounded by flowers, greenery and sweeping sea views, this villa blends space, comfort and a central location just a short stroll from beaches, restaurants and shops.
A private pool, shaded dining terrace, barbecue, billiards and table tennis make outdoor living irresistible, while the sleek interiors feature a modern kitchen, spacious lounge and en-suite bedrooms, some with jacuzzis and private balconies. With nature and sea views at every turn, Villa Pilanta offers a luxurious setting for unforgettable holidays in Kalkan.
Kalkan was once a quiet fishing village and has since turned into a popular holiday destination. It still retains its classic Turkish charm with traditional restaurants serving everything from fresh seafood to fish mezes and colourful fishing boats still lining the harbour. You can even jump on an authentic wooden gullet to explore the surrounding bays. The boats usually stop for snorkelling and swimming in the calm crystal-clear waters and lunches are sometimes prepared on board.
You can’t come to this beautiful part of Turkey without exploring the many Lycian sights in the area, such as Xanthos, Patara, Myra or the sunken city of Kekova where there are ancient 2nd-century ruins. You can get to Kekova via an organised boat or kayak trip. Boats usually leave from Kas, a lively town which is a 30-minute drive from Kalkan. Kas also has more to offer with its impressive ancient site of Antiphellos, with still-visible ruins including a theatre. For more fun day trips, you could head to the seaside resort town of Fethiye, a one-hour drive from Kalkan. It has plenty of top-notch restaurants, shops and fascinating cultural sites too that are well worth a visit.
Back in Kalkan itself, you can immerse yourself in the culture and head to a market. You’ll find everything from spices to hand-crafted rugs, fresh produce and jewellery. The town is also famous for its waterfront cafes and roof-top restaurants offering fantastic views of the bay. For days spent by the beach instead, Kaputas Beach and Patara Beach, a long stretch of shoreline that’s also a National Park are both excellent choices. With day beach clubs at both, you can relax on the sand, take part in water sports like kayaking and parasailing or eat at the restaurants.
