Ottoman Villa holds a wonderful hillside position, just a short distance from the popular resort of Yalikavak, where a variety of helpful family-friendly amenities and beaches can be found. While guests will be in easy reaching distance of all the action, they will also enjoy a totally tranquil and private stay off the beaten track.

Unlike other more contemporary villas in the area, Ottoman Villa has a real Mediterranean, Tuscan feel throughout with the emphasis being on indoor-outdoor living, allowing those fortunate enough to enjoy a stay here to make the most of long sunny days and warm nights. The stone built villa can comfortably accommodate up to ten guests across its five beautifully appointed bedrooms, split across the main house (3 bedrooms) and two guest cottages, it would make an excellent choice for two or three families holidaying together. In the main house, the main living accommodation can be found on the ground floor and comprises of open-plan living / dining rooms and a fully-equipped kitchen. Also on this level are two of the bedrooms, both double rooms with carved four poster beds as well as a family shower room. Upstairs on the first floor is the impressive master bedroom which boasts an en-suite bathroom, dressing area and a private terrace. The remaining two bedrooms are situated in two stone built cottages in the grounds, one with a private shower room and the other boasting an open air shower, sauna and ensuite WC.

Outside, the whole family will enjoy lazy days spent in and around the beautiful private pool, reading in the garden or taking tea on the terrace with terracotta tiled roof. After action-packed days spent on the nearby beaches, spend balmy evenings enjoying delicious meals alfresco on the terrace, cooking is made easy by the purpose built outdoor kitchen and barbecue, there's even a bar. The home is set within extensive mature grounds with fabulous fruit trees, shrubs and planting, a completely private oasis.

For winter stays the main house boasts underfloor heating, log fires and an outside firepit.

What Oliver loves...

  • Wonderful hillside position, less than a 10-minute car journey from the popular resort of Yalikavak and Marina
  • The outside space is truly majestic, a tranquil retreat where guests can completely relax and disconnect from reality
  • The home is simply bursting full of charm, boasting characterful yet elegent interiors and furnishings throughout
  • The resort is semi open in winter months, and as the main house has underfloor heating, a firepit and open fires it's a perfect time to visit. There are plenty of shops and restaurants, ancient sites to visit and an average of 5 hrs of sun per day in January and February.
  • Outside of summer, walkers can enjoy the Leleg Route, a marked walking route covering the Bodrum peninsula
  • A delicious Traditional Turkish Breakfast is provided, by the housekeeper every morning. She will also do a light clean each day.
