minutes walking distance from each other. Perfect for large
families or friends who want to stay close to each other, but
have their own privacy. |

Villa Selim |
Villa Bahce and Villa
Selim are fully air-conditioned and heated, and
both have mosquito nets on all
windows .
Both villas see
the sunrise and are cool in the hot afternoon sun. Perfect for relaxing
on the
terrace and enjoying peaceful sea view.
Private Seaside Facilities for
Villa Bahce and Villa Selim
Should you choose not
to spend the day at the beach in Gundogan, the villa complex has a
private sea access directly down the hill from the villa. Under normal
conditions, going there takes
approximately 5-10 minutes by walking, or 2-3 minutes by driving. If you have
kids, aging parents, or
health problems, we recommend driving to the seaside because coming back will
require walking on
steps and slight hills. This beautiful seaside area is
terraced
with three levels. The top level has a
food and beverage station with
tables and chairs to
enjoy lunch, play games, or simply enjoy time
in the shade.
The mid level terrace is for sun
bathing under wicker umbrellas with sand
beneath
your feet. The bottom level has a shower
and changing station
directly by the sea.

Most of our guests decide to
rent a car. If you would like one, we can arrange to
have it
delivered to your villa or the airport.
We work with a local car company and get the best and
lowest rates for your needs.
Both villas have plenty of parking spaces
at the same approximate
level of the villas. This makes it easy to carry your groceries etc from the
car to either villa.
We believe that you will find more freedom to explore
the area by renting a car, and therefore
we recommend it. The local
car company we have
arrangements with charge the following rates
on average depending on the car chosen:
22 GBP per day in July and August, and
20 GBP per day in May, June, September and October
Generally, minimum car hire is 7 days, and the car can either be delivered to the villa
or to the airport
free of charge. If car hire is less than 7 days, either you can pick up the
car at their office at
no charge, or pay 20 GBP each way for delivery and return of the car. You
will pay the local
car company when you pick up your car either by cash or credit card.
Please use our car reservation form to
select and reserve your car. (click
here) We recommend that
you book your car at least 2 months prior to your arrival date because it
becomes difficult to supply
cars in the summer months.
If you decide not to rent a car, you can use the public transportation, also
known as the Dolmus
"minibus
service" or call for a local
taxi driver. Both villas are conveniently
located on the main
road, as the route for Dolmus
departs in the front of the
villas on the main road. The Dolmus
service operates between the
hours of 7am
until 11pm every two hours, and every hour on
Wednesdays due to the farmers'
market (fresh organic vegetables and fruits) in the village
of Gundogan.
We will
happily arrange transportation services to and from the
airport by a local private driver.
Prices vary
according to the size of your party, and time of arrival
and departure.
The local
airport transfer fees are: 30 GBP up to 4 people, and 45 GBP for 5 and up to 9 people.
The fees are paid
to the driver when services are rendered. If you are coming from Izmir
International Airport or
Dalaman Airport, the rate is 80 GBP for up to 4 people, and 123 GBP for 5
and up to 9 people.
The rates include all applicable taxes (VAT), gas, and the driver. All
prices are in GBP and
are one way. Other currencies are acceptable at the relevant exchange rate.
Do let us know in advance how you wish to pay. You will pay directly to the
driver.
Gratuities are optional.
Please use our
airport transfer form to make your
transfer arrangements.
