A short 10 minute drive or Dolmus journey takes you to the beautiful Patara beach. At 12km, Patara beach is one of the longest unspoiled beaches in the world and in parts it reaches a width of 200-300 metres. The beach has soft sand and a shallow sea. It is the one of the places that sea turtle leave their eggs. Because of this, the beach is under protection. At its Eastern-most point there is a rocky outcrop looking over a spectacular rocky cove. There is no development here and access is via a ruined Roman city. Bring a picnic, and truly escape from the world:-)		The villa is furnished to a high standard using a mix of Turkish and western themes. The entrance hall has an atrium with a marble staircase that ascends up 3 floors to the roof terraces. There is an Italian designer kitchen from Franke. On the first floor there are 2 King size double and 1 twin bedded rooms. Both the double rooms have private balconies, sea views and King size beds On the ground floor there is a double room with an adjoining bathroom.

The villa is ideal for groups of friends or families with older children, who enjoy water sports, excellent restaurants, mountain walks and private relaxation. If you are energetic you may be interested to walk along the historic Lycian Way. The best months of the year to walk are October, November, March, April and the first half of May. December to February often enjoy long spells of glorious weather, but there is generally more chance of rain during that period. From the end of May until the end of September, the higher temperatures make it unsuitable for walking except along the more shaded sections of the walk.
