Villa: Private Pool, gated gdn, forest views, 6 minutes to beach, cafe, s'mkts

Relax in the luxury and comfort of this beautiful air conditioned villa. At night - dine alfresco overlooking the lit pool and adjacent forest. By day, dip in and out of the private pool, sunbathing on the surrounding terrace and gated gardens. There's a child's splash pool, outside hot and cold power-shower and BBQ. The owner, Marcia, who is an artist has created beautiful pebble murals on the villa wall and pillars near the pool (see photo). You'll see further evidence of her original art on the walls and elegant decor of the villa.

There's a new smart Samsung TV in the lounge.

After cooling off in the pool, pop inside for a glass of ice-cold water, or hot drink, on tap from the kitchen dispenser.

For your convenience, Villa Loumar has fast (free) wi-fi throughout and on the balconies. The local restaurants and nearby beach clubs also all have free wi-fi.

All bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms with fabulous power showers. The top floor bedroom has a jacuzzi bath. You'll need to put it on a low setting as it has wonderfully strong power jets - but don't worry about flooding the bathroom because it has a glass surround.

Cool marble floors and air-conditioning throughout.

Villa Loumar is ideally situated on the corner of a quiet residential street in Koca Calis village, within 6-8 minutes level walk (less than 400m) to local beaches (the nearest is Surf Beach - wonderfully rustic atmosphere and outdoor decor.

There's a large newly opened 'Migros' (supermarket) just a minute's walk around the corner. You can go to the busier Calis Beach (catch a local bus called a 'Dolmus') from Surf Beach - a 10 minute turnaround. Calis Beach has a beautiful promenade, shops and numerous cafes.

The harbour town of Fethiye is a 20 minute dolmus ride from Surf Beach, but a better way to go is via a Water Taxi to Fethiye Harbour from Calis Beach .There's great shopping in the Paspateur (Old City), a fantastic weekly Tuesday market where you can dine under the trees overhung with lights. There are many tours you can book at Calis Beach from one of the many outdoor booths.

The famous lagoon beach resort of Olu Deniz is a 25 minute bus journey from Fethiye and offers lively evening entertainment, clubs, music, dining and dancing.

The villa is ideally located for all these local attractions. The pool and garden are serviced daily, and our excellent, English speaking local agents clean the villa before arrival and are on the spot to help should you require it. You'll find their brochure in the villa.

For added security, the villa is burglar alarmed (there are also security grills on doors and windows). Windows have mosquito nets fitted but please don't leave windows open when the air-con is on.

All in all, we think you'll find Villa Loumar a delightful base for your holiday. We hope you'll love it as much as we do!
