Our Eden Collection villas are all individual but united by certain characteristics, the main one being an exceptionally convenient location in Kalkan. Most new villas are, unsurprisingly, built on the outskirts as the town gradually expands away from the centre, but thanks to local connections and a little bit of luck, owner Jimmy Aaladag was able to secure this prize central position for his new villas. All the properties face out to sea, and are within easy walking distance of restaurants, shops, beach clubs and Kalkan’s vibrant Old Town: Eden indeed.
Jimmy is no stranger to luxury design, so Villa Lunara is super-stylish and superbly finished in keeping with the rest of the Collection. There’s an 11-metre-long swimming pool with a built-in Jacuzzi spanning the front of the villa, with ample lounging space for all your party. The interiors are equally spacious and appealing, with vast expanses of glass to let the sunlight flood in. And for high summer afternoons when you feel like a little respite from the sun, you can retreat to the games room for some friendly ping pong, pool or table football competition.
Kalkan is a particularly good location for mixed groups and families with older children. Independence-seeking teens can come and go to the beach clubs, shops and harbour cafes as they please, and carve out their own daily timetable without needing someone to drive them around. Everyone else is therefore also free to do whatever their holiday heart desires, be it a book by the pool, browsing the local market or blissfully relaxing in the Jacuzzi bubbles. Once evening falls you can opt for drinks on the terrace and dinner by the pool as the lights of Kalkan start to twinkle below, or stroll into town for the roof-top restaurant experience. Even closer to hand you can also enjoy a great meal at the ever-popular Korsan Suites or Kalkan Regency Hotel.
Private airport transfers direct to your villa are included, making for an effortless start to the holiday, but for those who’d like to experience more of the area’s most impressive beaches, Lycian treasures and timeless mountain landscapes, we’re happy to arrange a hire car or advise on local excursions.
Looking for 10 nights..? Why not add a 3-night stay in a boutique hotel to your villa holiday. To find out more, view our 10-night holidays in Turkey.

I cannot fault Simpson Travel for our trip to Kalkan. We have used them in the past and they have always been excellent but we found them to be exceptional this time. Our rep, Kitty, was fabulous - always quick to respond even when it was her time off and very knowledgable. When our eldest had an accident on the last day, between Simpson and the owner of the villa, we felt so well supported. Even on arrival at the airport another kind representative met us and told us what we might expect regarding our son being able to fly as he had obvious injuries which was so helpful. We will definitely be using Simpson again!
What a fantastic holiday. We last came to Kalkan for our honeymoon in 2006, and brought our children back 18 years later....the town has grown a little since then, but still has the same great atmosphere, views, food and weather. Villa Lunara was fantastic. The location was great - close enough to the centre that we could walk, near two supermarkets, but also peaceful and with fantastic views across the bay. The villa itself is of a very high standard with amazing features, a lovely pool and the best sun loungers I've ever tried! The owner Jimmy was on hand to help with questions or suggestions, gorgeous bread was delivered daily and Kitty our concierge was always available to help out with bookings or recommendations. Overall, one of the best family holidays ever and can't wait to go back.
Fabulous villa. Had a fantastic two weeks at Villa Lunara. Amazing villa with great views! Kalkan town is fabulous too, loads of great bars and restaurants - people are so friendly and welcoming! Jimmy, the villa owner, is great along with Kitty, our Simpson representative. The daily fresh bread was a lovely touch! Fabulous holiday and villa - thank you so much.
Thoroughly enjoyed our week at Villa Lunara. A beautiful home that was comfortable and made our holiday really special. Our 1st time in Kalkan and we were blown away by the quality of the restaurants in the town. Everyone we met was super friendly. Thanks to Jimmy for his welcome and helping us out with any problems, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much for making our stay so perfect.
Thank you for an amazing holiday! The villa is so beautiful and was a perfect home for the week. Jimmy was so welcoming, kind and just wonderful! Everyone is so friendly and really made the holiday special. We all really enjoyed the complementary boat trip and hamman. Those 2 experiences were incredible - cannot recommend highly enough and we suggest starting the week with the hamman to put you in that state of holiday relaxation. The Old Town was beautiful! So many amazing restaurants and Indigo Beach Club is a must! The fresh bread every morning was delicious and very much appreciated! Tesekkurler! (thank you)
Villa Lunara is an amazing property with great outdoor space having many seating areas with high quality furniture. A very good swimming pool and BBQ area. The interior is furnished to a very high standard and has a well appointed kitchen with more than adequate utensils and crockery. Kitty the concierge is amazing as always and is readily on hand to help make the holiday run smoothly. We are so impressed we’ve booked again for next year.
Everything we needed for a perfect family holiday. Beautiful villa, scenery and sun, sunshine and lots of fun for 4 adults and 2 children. Plus everyone is very friendly. The complimentary boat trip was a fantastic day and treat, as was the Hamam - great Turkish experience! Really enjoyed our stay at Villa Lunara - beautiful place and view.
A privilege to be the first guests to stay in Lunara! A stunning villa which feels more like staying in a personal home. Faultless space and views which we've never tired of. Jimmy, the owner, is a text message away for any help needed and the pool guy and his wife are lovely people, reliable and hardworking...they never stop! The villa is ideally located to 2 supermarkets and places to eat and drink. There is always a warm welcome from Memduh at Korsan Suites opposite. We'll be back!
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.
* For further clarification on Facilities and Amenities, please view the 'Details' tab for each property or speak to one of our experienced sales consultants.
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.
