Fabulous villa
Lovely villa, with beautiful outside space which we used a lot. The walk into town was short but quite hard because of the hills, however the taxis were readily available and really inexpensive so we tended to use them all the time. The bedrooms were all spacious and the whole villa was kitted out really well. A dream holiday enjoyed by the whole group

Sublime stay in Kalkan
If you are contemplating a holiday in Kalkan and Villa Amycha is available then seriously do not hesitate to book this incredible villa. Heavenly views across the bay, perfectly located above Kalkan accessible by either a downhill stroll or short taxi ride (taxis are plentiful and good value). Every detail has been considered to make the villa the perfect spot to luxuriate by the pool, drink cocktails at your very own outdoor bar or slumber in the comfortably appointed bedrooms. Joanna the owner together with her local team will see that everything you need for your holiday is taken care of. Villa Amycha sets a very high bar for future holidays, it may just be the case we have to return again to avoid any risk of disappointment.

Excellent. It has everything you could possibly need for a week of relaxation in the sun.
We just came back from Villa Amycha a week ago and we had a superb time. I went with my family and five year old son (9 of us in total) and it was definitely the best villa I have ever stayed in. It is very well equipped, extremely clean and the pool and outdoor area is stunning. You can always judge a good place by asking yourself if you'd visit again, and we all would. Joanna and her staff were all very helpful. Joanna had organised a private chef (Kazim) to come and cook dinner for us one evening and that was very special. She also organised a private boat and snorkeling trip for us one day. The snorkeling was a bit disappointing as there was not much to see but the boat was great with lunch and an afternoon snack provided which is all cooked on the boat. It was delicious. Kalkan itself was also nice with plenty of restaurants to choose from. We look forward to visiting again soon.

When we arrived in Villa we fall in love. the view is breathtaking. the villa itself is just perfect. every detail has been thought of. the view from 4 bedrooms is beautiful. everything was very clean. thanks to kadir and ayfer for your efforts. thanks also to tarik bey for the nice reception. unfortunately we had forgotten something in the villa. tarik bey sent them to us with cargo. everything is done to fill the guests well and satisfied. that will certainly not be the last time to be here. many thanks to everyone. thanks to villa amycha we were able to enjoy our vacation in spite of corona.

Wonderful!
Absolutely stunning villa, which was everything we had hoped for and more. We completely fell in love with Villa Amycha and Kalkan and hope to return again. The view is nothing short of breathtaking and possibly unbeatable? What made this villa even better were the small touches that make all the difference, being met on arrival at the villa by Kadir, the daily housekeeping by the lovely Ayfer, daily bread delivery, constant supply of drinking water in the cooler, bathroom amenities, constant supply of toilet roll, kitchen roll, washing up liquid, this is way above and beyond what you would usually get in a villa, and was very much appreciated. All the suggestions that Joanna made were fantastic, we used Ayhan for taxi trips, had Kalkan Catering cook for us, Bucket came to do massages, went to Arcadia for a Turkish Bath, went to Zest beach club, and the highlight of all the trip was a private boat trip with Captain Abdi and his wonderful wife on Pina X, we loved it so much we went twice! The pool has been remodelled recently adding a lovely ledge to lounge on and some steps and completely re-tiled. Thank you so much Joanna for all your patience and help, Villa Amycha and Kalkan is something very special.

Just amazing!!
We stayed here at the end of June with two other couples. My friends and I are celebrating our 50th birthday this year and we can honestly say that we wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else. We just didn't want to come home. It was our friend's first time to Kalkan and our third and they were so impressed by the villa and Kalkan that we will definitely be back. We didn't hire a car as Joanna organised a taxi for us at the airport which I have to say was an excellent way to arrive at the villa. Our flight was delayed so was a relief that we had a taxi and didn't decide to hire a car. We met Ian who was our personnel taxi driver during our stay and he was a godsend as he just was available whenever we needed him. Kadir and Ayfer who looked after the cleaning and maintenance at the villa were really lovely and did a great job while we were there. We hired Kazim the chef for one night which was a fantastic way to spend one of the nights we had eating at the villa. It was great that we were able to supply a shopping list and along with what Joanna already supplied helped us for the first day or two. The information folder was full of useful information. We hired a private boat for the day which was a lovely experience. This villa is simply amazing the pool and the space around the pool is fantastic and the bedrooms just have amazing views. We will definitely be back very soon.

5 star luxury
Amazing, beautiful, luxurious, stunning, perfect... These are just some of the words that have been used to describe Villa Amycha and I'd have to agree with each one of them. We have just returned after 2 weeks and I think this is the most relaxed I've felt after a holiday! With the lovely Kadir & Ayfer taking care of the pool & villa during our stay, it really did feel as though you barely need lift a finger. We arrived at night so it was only when opening the blinds the following morning did we see the view...wow, wow, wow! And it didn't lose its wow factor the whole stay, I was still mesmerised each time I opened the blinds, walked down the stairs, walked out onto the terrace...we even went out and bought a pair of binoculars! For anyone thinking of visiting Kalkan in April, I would say that our experience was fantastic and we would definitely go this time of year again. We were lucky with the weather as we only had one day of rain and the rest was early twenties, a big difference to the temperatures at home. We even went a boat trip our second week (kindly organised by Joanna) and were swimming at every bay. Town is very quiet with a lot of places still getting ready for the new season (which we loved to watch and even mucked in ourselves helping out at one of the bars!), but there are still more than enough shops, bars & restaurants open - still too many to choose from. Although it was quiet, we experienced no pressure from anyone and spent a lot of time chatting to the locals as they had the time to spend with us. I have been to Turkey many times, but never to Kalkan. I experienced the same warmth & friendliness as I have in other parts of Turkey which is one of the main reasons I, and so many, return. Although they rely on tourism for their livelihoods, they are genuine people and go out of their way to make your holiday special. Sadly, one subject that did come up were the troubles that are happening all over the world at the moment. They are so worried about the impact it will have on their businesses this year, with one of the restaurant owners predicting a 45% loss. If you are thinking of going to Turkey then please don't let the troubles that are happening elsewhere put you off. It is a wonderful country with wonderful people and if I could afford to, I would buy my own Villa Amycha and live there all year round! Thank you again Joanna for a perfect stay. You really couldn't do enough and made our holiday all the more special.

Delightful stay, from start to finish. The support, help and advice we received from Joanna was excellent, we had everything we could wish for. The villa was very close to Kalkan, an easy walk down in the evening, taxi back! However it was totally peaceful and relaxing around the pool with gorgeous views.

Fabulous Villa with dream views
The villa was everything it said it would be, it was so lovely having our breakfast made for us and the fresh bread they took in every morning was great for lunch, after breakfast the villa was then cleaned and beds made, what a treat. The Pool area was immaculate with the best sun loungers perfect for that late afternoon snooze or sun downer drinks at the bar. The view from the villa was magnificent, it took your breath away.

Back again!....just don't tire of the view
So nice to be back again after the pandemic. It was just as we remembered and we were able to share it with more friends - they loved it as much as we do. Amycha was as comfortable and spacious as always; our home from home. Kalkan Town itself was much busier (and noisier!); everyone keen to get away after the last couple of years? New restaurants and bars but still some old favourites. All in all a great couple of weeks. Booking and communications with the owner, Joanna, were smooth as always and she booked our transfers and boat trips in advance which made everything run smoothly. Next year??....

Perfect honeymoon
From the moment we contacted Joanna, we knew we’d made the right choice. Joanna was always very quick to respond to our queries, provided us with lots of suggestions and even assisted us with booking a private boat trip and Chef Kazim who cooked us a delicious 3 course meal (which was the best meal we had whilst in Istanbul and Kalkan). The villa itself was cleaned throughly every day and the daily fresh bread was very handy. We arrived to a congratulations cake and bottle of fizz which was so thoughtful. The view from the pool and the bedrooms was amazing, such beautiful sunsets. Ayan the taxi driver recommended by Joanna was always there for us when we needed him. Would highly recommend staying at Villa Amycha!

About the host

Hosted by Joanna Robertson

Host profile image
Grew up in Maidenhead in Berkshire, went to Leeds University and have now lived in Aberdeen Scotland for 27 years. Have 4 children - 2 grown up daughters and 2 much younger sons in their last year of primary school.

Why they chose this property

I'd never been to Turkey before 2013, but was wanting to buy a holiday home in a beautiful location that wasn't over developed and was easily accessible from the UK so started doing online research. Turkey was not my destination of choice until i read about Kalkan; there were loads of articles in praise of the place all noting that it was more sophisticated than other Turkish "resorts" and that it was the type of place that people who loved Tuscany would enjoy.
I decided we had to visit for ourselves and in February 2013 we headed over to Dalaman. The estate agent showing us around told us he thought we should see other areas as well to get a fuller appreciation of what was on offer as well as Kalkan, so he took us to Fethiye, Çalis Beach, Overçik - none of which "did it" for us at all and we were convinced we were not going to buy in Turkey. And then we rounded the mountain and looked down on Kalkan Bay........ and instantly fell for that view! Kalkan's quaint charms and the quality of the villas themselves were wonderful and we knew if we liked it so much in February then it could only get better during the warmer months! We concluded the purchase of our lovely Villa JaySea in May 2013 and have never looked back, we love it - but it's been so popular we decided to get another villa and so became the very proud owners of the even more gorgeous Villa Amycha in May 2015 . We absolutely love its cool crisp style, it's easy layout, the incredible views, and the huge terrace and infinity pool.

What makes this property unique

Villa Amycha sits on a 700m plot so the terrace is huge which was a big attraction.

It already had the amazing 50m infinity pool with sunbathing areas on 3 sides but we knew that there was also plenty of space to install a large marble bar for entertaining.... which now looks fab.

We also added pool heating (don't know how anyone can enjoy using an unheated pool, particularly in low and mid seasons but we also heat it in high season - just makes the place so much more inviting!) The views from the terrace are incredible but these views are also viewed from every room in the villa with the exception of the single room (which has mountain views)

We love to really relax on holiday and though the privacy of a private villa suits our requirements we do like the luxury of hotel type offerings: someone else making the beds, cleaning the bathrooms, preparing breakfast and clearing it away and we also like to know that we don't have to carry over hairdryers or bathroom amenities such as shampoo, conditioner, soap, hand cream etc so we decided that all these things would be included for our guests too.
