We live in England and have 3 children and 3 grandchildren We purchased this villa due to the size, location and style and its amazing views. We try to get out there as much as we can. All we can say is that the people are fantastic, weather is always hot and there is plenty to do if you are feeling energetic or just chill out and relax.

I wanted to have a lovely all the family" together" holiday and what I got was the most fantastic holiday ever.To start with Sharon (the owner) was very very helpful with everything this end arranging transport and car seats etc ,telling us all she had there so not to over pack. InTurkey we were transported to villa and oh my god what a beautiful place it is.So spacious and like Sharon says home from home. Jenny was on tap for anything we needed, and we had a fabulous time. The people cant help you enough, and prices are so reasonable. I would very highly recommend this villa to stay. I will definatly be returning.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. Im glad you had an enjoyable holiday.
Had a fantastic stay at this top of the range villa last summer in August last year. We were two families of four and there was plenty of space for all of us. It truly is luxurious and very well equipped.
The area of Turkey was very nice too & Sharon gave us plenty of information before we arrived.
I would recommend hiring a jeep or car to get around on some days.
We would definitely go back.
Sharon was very helpful and flexible with arrival dates. All in all we had a very pleasant stay. We did have issues with the TV and power cuts, but it was sorted out eventually. The management people however do rely on contact by Whatsapp, which when you don't have an internet connection is not very useful. The villa doesn't have it's own internet connection which is a bit misleading, you can however get it at the restaurant - which is very friendly and the staff are very welcoming.
Thank you for your review. Unfortunately we had just changed over management companies and the new internet was in the process of being installed at that time, and we did have some teething problems with the TV due to this as originally we had Digiturk which didn't give many English channels for our renters so we chose to have it by internet, so that you could get a lot of variety. We had to rely on the site wifi which could be intermittent. The villa now has its own personal internet. Usually you just call up the management company and they respond very quickly or onsite security can help. There should be no reason to whats app, so apologies for this. You can also call and message direct to the company who will respond quickly or speak to security onsite. Unfortunately any short power cuts are out of our control. This can be normal at times in the summer. Generally they are resolved quickly.
Thank you once again for renting. Im glad you had a good holiday.
Car wasn't needed as the courtesy bus was excellent.
I would just like to say that thank you for letting us have the luxury of staying at your villa.
Impressive, modern and very spacious villa in a very quiet location but with easy access to the excellent resort of Side. The owner was extremely helpful and flexible at every stage of the process which was a big advantage. One of the best villas we have stayed in and as a total package it would be difficult to beat. Highly recommended.
The beautiful sandy beach is 5-10 minutes drive away, using the free beach bus. Sun loungers and umbrellas are provided at the waters edge. Excellent food is served by the friendly, multi-lingual staff at the restaurants on the beach. Water sports are on offer including para sailing, jet skis, ringo's and banana boats, or take a leisurely stroll along the beautiful newly completed beach promenade. There are 2 beaches, east & west. The quieter beach has a protected area for the turtles.
Antalya Airport, which is connected to most UK airports, is a 40 minute drive away. Regular flights can be booked through a number of carriers (e.g. via internet sites - flythomascook, sun-express, travelrepublic or cheapflights). Airport pickups can be organised by the owners in advance. Car hire is not essential unless you want to explore. Local buses called Dolmas are very cheap and they go just about anywhere. There is a free shuttles bus that runs to and from the complex every 2 hours.
The holiday resort of Side and Manavgat, the nearest major town, are both 15 minutes away by car or bus. The beautiful cities of Antalya and Alanya are 45 minutes away. Aspendos, with it's beautifully preserved amphitheatre, which still hosts many concerts in the summer months, is half an hour away, with the fabulous remains of Perge a similar distance from the villa.The Roman ruins of Side boasts three temples including the 4 remaining pillars of the Apollo Temple overlooking the Harbour.
Magnificent water falls at Manavgat, the protected Sorgun forest where you can enjoy horse riding, a coastline which offers you infinite adventures and for the less energetic days, Turkish baths and massages.The small museum in the town houses many relics and provides a fascinating insight into the history of Side.
Just along from Antayla airport you can enjoy a family fun day @ Tree-tops an adventure park, where one of the activities you can do is swing from high up trees. Duden waterfalls is another place of interest to enjoy. Any excursions can be booked through one of the agents at the harbour in side or Kumkoy at one of the local excursion companies or even at the restaurant on site. Other activities close by include white water rafting, jeep safaris, thrilling scenic adventure through the beautiful Koprulu Canyon National Park or up into the spectacular Taurus Mountains which form the backdrop to the area. There is a huge aqua park in Antalya and Alanya where you can have adventurous fun with rafting, bungee jumping and slides. At the Dolphin Park in Antalya you can touch and swim with dolphins. Horse riding, quad biking and fishing are all close at hand. An annual summer festival takes place at Aspendos Amphitheatre, staging evening performances of opera, ballet and music.
There are a few local restaurants and shops near to the villa if you don't want to venture into town, these are located at the top of road along from the Four Seasons complex which is all part of the same development. Side Old Town has an abundance of excellent restaurants and along the new promenade walkway which skirts the beach.
