Hotel Villa Mahal, Kalkan, Turkey

Exceptional boutique luxury hotel with spectacular bay views and superb service

7 nights from £850 per person sharing. Flights and transfers available at an additional charge.

Nestled on a hillside and surrounded by olive, fig and frangipani trees, Hotel Villa Mahal overlooks the beautiful blue Bay of Kalkan. Expect a wonderfully warm welcome from the hotel’s passionate owner, as well as a terrific team of staff that are the perfect balance of attentive and unobtrusive. And while the Beach Club may not have powder-white sands, here each guest gets a sunlounger-topped seaside platform to themselves. With only children aged 12 and above permitted to stay, the ambience is serene and sophisticated, while all rooms and suites boast their own private terrace with sea views – perfect for hiding away.

Accommodation

The ideal choice for couples, this luxury boutique hotel offers plenty of privacy across just 13 rooms and suites, while four stunning private villas are located just above the resort, sleeping up to six guests. With stunning sea views and private terraces, rooms and suites also include a private bathroom with shower (some also have a bath), air-conditioning and heating, a mini-bar, complimentary bottled water, tea and coffee making facilities, a safe, iPod dock, hairdryer, bathrobes, slippers, Molton Brown toiletries and Wi-Fi. The four private villas each boast three bedrooms, three bathrooms, an open-plan living area, kitchen, dining room, alfresco dining terrace, and infinity swimming pool.

Activities and Experiences

An impressive infinity pool flaunts vistas over the magical Mediterranean, while Mahal Beach Club offers plush sun loungers spread across private bathing platforms and shaded by olive trees, as well as a range of water sports. Enjoy authentic Turkish breakfasts, delicious light bites for lunch and waterside dinners on a stylish terrace, complete with twinkling lights and exquisite cuisine. A complimentary boat will take you to the bustling Kalkan harbour (with its numerous restaurants and bars), while a stunning yacht can be chartered for day-only or overnight trips, allowing you to explore more of Turkey’s tantalising ‘Turquoise Coast’.

Facilities and Services

Mahal Beach Spa takes a cue from the Flintstones, offering its decadent treatments (Balinese massages, clay face masks, foot and hand reflexology and crystal healing) in a low-lit stone cave where the gentle swoosh of waves reverberates off the walls. Alternatively, you can choose to take your treatment in a veiled pavilion by the shore..
