- Unique 1 bedroom villa in Kalkan
- Stunning sea views
- Close to Mahal Beach Club
- Private setting
Kalkan has no shortage of statement villas, but couple-sized properties are a little more elusive, especially if you you’re looking for a pool and privacy too. Step forward Villa Sun, a sweet one-bedroom hideaway with sweeping views across the whole of Kalkan bay.
One of three beautiful White Collection properties, Villa Sun is appealingly private, whether you’re dining by the pool or enjoying a lie-in and stunning views from the galleried master bedroom. Floor-to-ceiling glass floods the interiors with brilliant southern light, whilst outside you’ll find both sun and shade in garden and on the pool terrace. Cleverly adapting to the hillside space, the infinity pool extends into the villa itself, so you can step straight from your morning shower into the immaculate blue, with uninterrupted views across the bay beyond.
Kalkan is famous for both its beach clubs and its excellent restaurants, and at Villa Sun you’re well placed to take full advantage of both. If you prefer to stay very local, directly below your villa you'll find the Mahal Beach Club, with a bar, restaurant, sunbathing terraces and many different water sports options. A hire car is included for your holiday, but for those who prefer not to drive, it’s just a 20-minute walk to the shops, restaurants, cafes and bars of Kalkan. And if the walk back feels like too much of an effort, taxis are reasonable and plentiful.
For a larger party or perhaps a special occasion, Villa Sun is available to rent together with Villa Sea and Villa Sky, providing a unique chance to share this magical spot with family and friends without compromising on each other’s privacy.

Villa Sun is a romantic, bijou villa just right for a couple. The outside space is lovely and the pool, larger than I expected, was a real treat. It is very private and the view is stunning. It is little far from the main town but it's very easy and quite cheap to get a taxi back and forth. Although a car is included there is zero alcohol tolerance so we preferred the short cab ride in the evenings.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at villa sun. It was very well equipped and had everything we needed. The day bed in the garden was a lovely surprise - great space to sit and watch the sunset with a drink. The welcome pack was great, and with the mezze that we ordered, meant that we didn't need to go shopping straight away. The local information book was very comprehensive and gave lots of useful information about places to visit. The day out on the gulet and the Turkish Bath were highlights along with visits to Kalkan and other local towns.
We really enjoyed our stay at The White Collection Villa Sun in Kisla Kalkan. We have found Simpson Travel an excellent company to deal with which is very reassuring. We did have problems with British Airways travelling home but the Simpson representative was very helpful which again was great. We would definitely travel with them again but would probably prefer another airline if possible although we do understand that things go wrong. Thank you Simpson for all you did to make our stay enjoyable. Hope you have a great season.
What a rare find - a villa for two. It is compact but has everything you could need. We had a really lovely stay at Villa Sun. The location is excellent - a short distance into Kalkan town centre but on a very quiet street with a wonderful view of the bay and the sunset. There are a few restaurants within walking distance (The Castle and Villa Mahal, both very good) but the little kitchen is well equipped if you don't fancy going out. Kay (our rep) was extremely helpful and always answered quickly. The airport welcome and car hire handover were very efficient as always. The mezze pack in the fridge was a really nice touch and the other food items supplied were generous - no need to do any shopping on the first day, which is really great. Thank you for a great holiday.
This was our first holiday with Simpson Travel and we shall definitely book with them again. The one bedroom villa was bijou but perfect for two people. The pool and new outdoor daybed were fabulous. The views from the villa were some of the best we have ever enjoyed. The starter pack did lunch for almost the whole week! All in all a wonderful holiday.
My initial contact with Simpson was extremely friendly and informative and in no way forcing a sale on me. The pre flight info and assistance was very good and this continued when we arrived in Kalkan. Kay (our rep) was very friendly and visited us at the villa on our first full day. We discussed many topics and she managed to book us our trips when we wanted them , despite the short notice. She was alway on hand (via WhatsApp, even on her days off she got back to us) to answer a question and proved excellent advice. The villa was excellent , extremely clean and although compact it was just right for us and had everything we needed. The pool was fantastic, the cabana was an excellent recent addition ( Kay mentioned it was new for this year) and all was kept wonderfully clean and tidy being cleaned daily by Mohammed. The town was great fun as was the Regency Hotel, we attended a great BBQ night and experienced a Turkish bath. We finished off with a brilliant boat trip on the Poseidon, we met some lovely people and was looked after by the crew extremely well, and a great final fantastic day on the sea. A great time was had and everything just worked and flowed seamlessly. We’ll definitely look to return at some point and even look at other Simpson locations. Thank you.
Customer Feedback We had an excellent week at Villa Sun. The Villa was perfect for the two of us. The car hire was trouble free, the pre-holiday information provided was informative and very useful, and the support of the airport representatives and of Kay Ulus in-resort was first-class. And the Welcome Pack….. wow, it was sumptuous, and we were still eating and drinking from it at the end of our week. Simpson is high-end price wise, but if you choose to pay it you certainly get quality both in the accommodation and the service.
Staff were outstanding! We had a difficult time with our air travel which we booked independently, but the Simpson staff could not have been more helpful! They were amazing.
The holiday overall was very enjoyable. Kitty was exceptional, and responded with any answers to questions immediately. She recommended Hasan when ordering a taxi and he became virtually our personal chauffeur. I would like to add how efficient he was, and never let us down. A very nice man who requires a special mention.We have been to Kalkan before and stayed at the Korsan Suites which was also good. Two very different holidays on either side of the bay but both good.
Our stay at villa Sun was a great opener to the season and the accommodation location and standard was great with great access to the Mahal Beach below.The information and support from Kitty and team was exceptional.
Our choice of Turkey properties is diverse, ranging from simple charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal.
To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.

Lapped by translucent blue water, Kalkan sits on Turkey’s stunning Turquoise Coast: a cosmopolitan, vibrant resort perfect for exploring the timeless beauty of ancient Lycia's pine-clad shores. The pretty town centre is a treasure trove of narrow streets, whitewashed Ottoman Greek houses and inviting boutiques. It's also famous for its harbourside lounge bars and rooftop restaurants. Carved into the hillsides hovering just above the shore, Kalkan's beach clubs are a unique way to make the most of this spectacular coast, popular with all ages and a huge hit if you're on holiday with teenagers; stay in one of our villas and enjoy complimentary access to the Indigo Beach Club.
Our guests return to Kalkan year after year. To find out why, visit our collection of luxury villas and hotels – and, if you book your Kalkan holiday with Simpson Travel, we'll also include a complimentary hamam experience and a day trip along the Turquoise Coast in a traditional wooden gület.
