A relaxed five-bedroom villa with a freeform swimming pool and table tennis, perfectly suited for families or groups seeking a relaxed, sociable getaway—offering fantastic value for money
Villa Elia is a low-key yet welcoming villa, ideal for larger families or groups of friends looking for a homey space to stay just moments from the heart of Kalkan. Situated within a walled garden, this property creates a safe environment for younger guests to explore freely. Parents can unwind by the pool, knowing little ones are always within sight. For friendly competition, the villa’s table tennis setup is perfect for in-house tournaments—a great way to spend fun-filled afternoons. Villa Elia is part of the charming Elif Villas collection—a cluster of four nearly identical villas. While each villa can be booked individually, they’re also perfectly suited for larger groups of friends or extended families traveling together.
Spread across three floors, the villa features five en-suite bedrooms, each designed with relaxed comfort in mind. On the ground floor, a twin room opens directly onto the terrace and pool, perfect for early risers or easy access for children. Upstairs, the bedrooms on the first and second floors each have their own private balconies, offering tranquil views over the bay—ideal for enjoying morning coffee or star gazing as night falls.
The villa’s open-plan living space is both practical and stylish, with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and comfortable lounge. The airy design flows seamlessly to the terrace, where you’ll find a barbecue area and plenty of seating for al fresco dining. Whether you’re hosting a laid-back lunch or an effortless evening by the pool, the outdoor space is perfect for making memories with your favourite people. The freeform swimming pool, surrounded by modern day beds, is the ultimate spot for leisurely summer days, complete with a good book and a refreshing dip.
Beyond the villa, Kalkan is a short distance away and there is plenty for guests to enjoy. Spend your days discovering the laid-back beach clubs dotted along the bay, where crystal-clear waters are ideal for those who love to snorkel. For the more adventurous, Kalkan’s dive and water sports centres provide a range of activities to get your adrenaline pumping. Thursdays bring the vibrant weekly market—a lively and authentic experience where you can try your hand at haggling for fresh produce or handmade products as well as many genuine- fake textile goods. In the old town, cobblestone streets are lined with artisan boutiques and a vast array of restaurants serving both traditional and contemporary cuisine, even over a two week stay there are more than enough restaurants for you to dine somewhere new each evening.
Villa Elia promises effortless living in a relaxed setting while placing you just a stone’s throw from the endless opportunities for exploration in Kalkan and the wider region. A stay here offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and authentic Turkish experiences—all at exceptional value.
While it may be hard to tear yourself away from the comfort of this villa, there’s so much to discover beyond the garden gate. Peruse our local guide to Kalkan, where we share insider tips on the best beach clubs, historical sites, off-the-beaten-track restaurants, unique experiences, day trips and more — everything you need to plan your perfect stay in Kalkan with the Discerning Collection.
