Vacation Rental Description
Large luxury detached Villa Riya recently built is set amongst the exquisite backdrop of beautiful clean countryside and mountains in 585 sq.m of land with a 30x13ft private pool and a small children's pool with jets. Own car park space. Panoramic views from the large gardens/patio area, and the generous balconies across the valley floor onto the mountains, are simply stunning. This is a wonderful setting for a relaxing away from it all holiday to recharge the batteries and top up the tan, and if you can tear yourself away, an excellent base for a far more active holiday with key attractions such as Taurus Mountains Saklikent Gorge, Tilos, Fethiye, Hisaronu, Olu Deniz, Calis and Patara Beach all being within easy distance by dolmus or car.
Less than 10 mins walk to/fro the traditional village town of Kemer with a variety of local facilities including 24 hour doctors, chemist, medical clinic, bank, Post Office, Internet Cafe, shops and restaurants.
Kemer offers selection of shops and open air market every Friday to meet most of your catering requirements, whilst providing you the opportunity to purchase clothing, household goods and gifts. You can also enjoy the local Turkish cuisine at an array of small restaurants. For more varied menu, visit the hill top restaurant boasting panoramic views, or the one located at the canal-side in the charming village square. All this within walking distances.
Dolmus (minibuses) run every 15 minutes in summer and every half hour in winter to Fethiye and some other places.
Villa has private pool and ample patio area for sunbathing, dining and enjoying the outdoor brick built barbecue. Small children's pool with jets provides additional bit of fun both for them and adults alike. Patio furniture includes 6 white sun loungers with mattress, sun brollies, dining table and chairs. Both pools are cold water (lovely for cooling off in the heat) and are available from 1st May to 15th October. Depth of large pool is 5ft 5 inches at the deep end and 2 feet 5 inches at shallow end. Pool is sloped, so depth varies on the slope. Small children's/Jacuzzi pool is 2 ft 5 inches deep.
Dalaman Airport is just under an hour by car, if you would like help with arranging transfers let us know. Cost would be £75 both way for up to 7 people.
