Wow what a fantastic villa, we could not fault anything. We stayed at Villa Teshir for 2 weeks in September where temperatures reached 37-38 degrees some days and the private pool was a god send to cool down. The air conditioning throughout the villa was also very welcome. Ray & Gill organised our transfers which went very smoothly and we had a lovely welcome pack on arrival at the villa, which was much appreciated at 11.30 at night. Roger the local agent was very helpful advising us places to go and the quickest routes to town and the market. We took full advantage of the BBQ and rarely went out at night as the views from the Villa where so beautiful there really was no need to venture out. We spent majority of our time outside sitting in one of the many outdoor seating areas and usually ended up on the upstairs veranda with a glass of wine or 2. We will definitely be returning and want to thank Ray & Gill for all there help and communication before, during and after our holiday.

Such an amazing villa with undisturbed views over Kalkan town and the sea.
Villa Teshir is well equipped, suitable for couples and families alike. It is spacious inside out, with plenty of seating areas taking full advantage of the amazing views.
The owners and the local villa manager Roger are ever so helpful with all enquiries. It was someone in our party birthday whilst we were in the villa and Roger delivered a very delicious birthday cake from one of the local patisseries, delicious and so very kind.
Location of the villa is fab, giving you the choice to walk to all local amenities or a very short, affordable taxi ride.
Kalkan itself is picturesque. With an abundance of restaurants, serving delicious food. Shops and beautiful beaches. The locals are ever so friendly with out being invasive.
Will definitely visit again, both kalkan and the villa. Would recommend to all.
Thank you Ray and Gill.
We spent 10 days at Villa Teshir on our family holiday. The villa is beautifully situated overlooking the sea and the mountains and is only a ten-minute walk from the pretty harbour town of Kalkan. The views from the terrace and balconies are fantastic and the living area, both inside and out, is spacious with the pool being larger than most villa pools.
As it was in August the weather was incredibly hot, but the air conditioning in the villa as well as the pool meant that we were always able to cool off.
The owners were very helpful in giving advice and arranging transfers from the airport and there was also a locally based agent who was able to give us advice on what to see and where to go.
All in all, it was a wonderful holiday and we would all like to go back there when we can.

Had a lovely holiday at Villa Teshir - the villa itself is great - finished to a high standard with air-conditioning throughout, wifi, tv, two ensuite bedrooms (with very comfy beds) and all the facilities needed for a comfortable stay. The pool area is fantastic with plenty of space to sit in the sun or move under shade as required and the pool itself is wonderful - I think it's around 1.7m all over and it's a perfect size for a cooling dip. The pool man comes around each morning very early to clean and maintain it so all you have to do is enjoy it. The view from the terrace is stunning looking down onto Kalkan Bay or back up to the mountains.
The owners, Ray & Gill have provided contact details for a range of local businesses, who will deliver bottled water, food, wine & beer etc to the villa, although it's a 10 min downhill walk to the nearest supermarket (and there are plenty of taxis for an easy and cheap trip back). The local agent Roger lives nearby and is very helpful with any queries or advice.
Kalkan itself is lovely - picturesque with lots of shops and restaurants with rooftop terraces. We ate out quite a few times and the food was consistently very good - lots of mezzes, grilled fish and meat dishes with fantastic salads.
While we were there, the attempted military coup happened, but to be honest, if we hadn't seen the news online, we wouldn't have know that anything had happened - there was nothing in the area that would indicate what had happened - Kalkan is probably the furthest point on the coast of Turkey that you can get from Istanbul (500 miles away), Ankara and the Syrian Border so it felt perfectly safe for the whole time we were there.
Overall it was a fantastic holiday and we would recommend Kalkan, and Villa Teshir in particular to anyone - we'll certainly be returning.

Charming villa ideally located above the town of Kalkan, an easy 10 minute step downhill to the shops and restaurants.
The villa was well equipped with stunning views from the spacious outside pool area which attracted welcoming breezes in the heat of the day. Never tired of of looking out over the bay of Kalkan with its wonderful array of boats coming and going.
The town is very unspoilt, pretty & quaint. We found the local people very friendly, polite and helpful.
Ray & Gill were always contactable and helpful with advise on visas and transfers and acted promptly to any queries.
Helen was also very helpful and knowledgeable of the local area .
We only had a week there, but all agreed that we would return for a longer stay.
