Villa Ayse in Kisla is one of the area’s finest properties and lies directly on the sea front. Of course the position guarantees magnificent sea views and as befitting such a property there is a huge private pool taking full advantage of the view and if that was not enough the villa also offers private sea access from bathing platforms at sea level.
Villa Ayse and the nearby Villa Aurelia are very imposing properties – two of three – in this great location on the “front row” in Kalkan. The outdoor terraces and pool take full advantage of the sea view. However, the icing on the cake has to be the private sea access; steps lead down from the garden, across a track and then further steps cut into the cliff side and shaded by olive trees lead down to sunbathing platforms set into the rocks; at sea level a decked platform is furnished with sun beds, sun shades and scatter cushions and has steps into the sea.
Villa Ayse is Mediterranean living at its best. The amply furnished shady terrace with its centrepiece of a huge date palm, is the perfect place for summer living with cushion filled rattan seating and a dining table. It’s just steps to the mosaic tiled infinity pool with cascading overflow, decked surround with sunbeds and a few steps descend from the pool to an attractive lawn which is dotted with sun beds. More steps lead down from the pool terrace to the lower ground level; these pass the utility and caretaker’s room and onto another lawn replete with elegant garden furniture in which to relax and, you guessed it – enjoy those fabulous views!
There are breath-taking views from virtually everywhere in and out of the house; you’ll find yourself gazing out across the deep blue sea, and as the sun sets, the show doesn’t stop and your gaze will be drawn in the other direction as the lights from Kalkan harbour are magical to look at. The interior of the house is very comfortable with rich dark wood and features two magnificent master bedrooms both with access to the vast upper terrace. A small secluded shady courtyard provides a peaceful retreat to retire to with a good book.
The villa is a located directly next the Mahal Beach Club with its renowned waterside restaurant. Villa Ayse is the twin to Villa Aurelia which is in close proximity and also offers private bathing platforms, it is perfect for two separate families holidaying together.
Getting to and from the centre of Kalkan couldn’t be easier – water-taxis run from Hotel Villa Mahal during the day; it’s a short five-minute drive or taxi ride.
