Details of the Villa

Looking for a luxurious five-bedroom holiday villa that offers the quiet and peacefulness of the countryside and a lively cosmopolitan resort just on your doorstep? We're pleased to tell you that such a place does exist. Say hello to stunning Villa Gol Manzara on Turkey's southern Turquoise coast. This group-friendly villa is nestled into the hillside, boasting magnificent views of sweeping Kalkan Bay and the traditional village of Ordu, and is within easy access of bohemian Kalkan town. Built to impress, Villa Gol Manzara has an elegant combination of high ceilings, rustic stone walls and is spread over three spacious floors with ever more amazing vistas from each successive increase in height. The interiors are sleek, stylish and modern with playful pops of colour – more New York Loft than Turkish Fishing Village – creating a pleasing contrast with the beautiful natural surroundings. The vast living area opens onto a stone terrace where you can enjoy your morning coffee overlooking the pool or pre-dinner drinks before the trip to Kalkan to indulge in delicious Turkish cuisine and low-key nightlife. With cushioned sun loungers lining the pool, deep-sit chairs you can sink into and a chic thatched-style pergola with romantic floor cushions and drapey voile curtains, you aren't short of scenic places to relax in the shade or bask in the Mediterranean sun. Continuing the decadence upstairs, the five bedrooms are all equally seductive and serene with contemporary light-coloured furnishings, and floor-to-ceiling windows and doors make the most of the spellbinding scenery and letting in the lovely natural light. Decorative touches like intricately-patterned sink bowls, soft cushions and potted plants and flowers complete the ‘luxe' aesthetic. Set against a breath-taking mountain backdrop and a stone's throw away from Turkey's stunning Turquoise Coast and the centre of Kalkan, this villa is perfect for exploring the timeless beauty of ancient Lycia's pine-clad shores. There's a treasure trove of narrow streets, whitewashed Ottoman-Greek houses and inviting bazaars and boutiques, all waiting for you to discover – just say when. #### Features Ground floor -Open plan living/dining/kitchen area -WC First floor -2 double bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms -Twin bedroom with en-suite shower room and TV; leads to shared balcony Lower ground floor (Accessed by external staircase) -Double bedroom with en-suite shower room, doors to pool terrace -Twin bedroom with en-suite shower room, door to pool terrace Outside -Infinity swimming pool 12m x 4m (depth 1.40m – 1.80m) with Roman steps and ladder- -Approximately 32 steps up to pool area and further 17 steps up to main house -Kosk seating area -Sunbeds -Umbrellas -Table and chairs Other -All bedrooms are sea facing -Safe -Iron & ironing board -Hairdryer -Air-conditioned throughout -Outdoor stone oven for barbeque with built-in seating area -Cool whirlpool -Satellite TV -Music amplifier -Electric oven, hob -Microwave -Coffee maker -Fridge-freezer -Dishwasher -Washing machine -Televisions in bedrooms -A simple welcome hamper is provided on arrival #### Location Villa Gol Manzara is quietly hidden in the rural hills, overlooking beautiful Kalkan Bay and the traditional village of Ordu on Turkey's famous Turquoise Coast.
