Kalkan Spas, Hammams & Wellness Treatments
Self-care is serious business in Turkey. For both men and women, pampering is a way of life — not just an indulgence, but a beloved ritual deeply woven into the culture. Turkish hammams are social occasions as much as cleansing experiences, and a visit to the local barber or kuaför (salon) often includes massages, oils, and all the extras.
So, for guests looking to relax on holiday, you’re in the right place. Kalkan isn’t just about turquoise coves and rooftop suppers — it’s also a brilliant place to unwind, reset and indulge in a little self-care. From traditional Turkish hammams to soothing massages, manicures, and hair treatments, this is your guide to where to go to feel good in Kalkan.
Turkish Bath (Hammam) Experiences in Kalkan
A traditional Turkish bath is a rite of passage for many travellers to Turkey. It begins with a full-body scrub by a tellak (male masseur) in a warm marble room to exfoliate and open your pores. This is followed by a luxurious foam massage using rich olive oil soap. It’s said to prepare your skin for a better tan — and leave you feeling completely renewed and squeaky clean.
Expect to be steamed, scrubbed, and pampered into total relaxation. The ritual dates back centuries, combining hot steam, water, essential oils, and vigorous massage. If you’re new to hammams, we recommend booking one at the start of your trip.
