Welcome to Villa Babil, a decadent new property that honours the Babylonian tale of a tower as high as heaven. Built into the hillside in our favourite part of town, this sublime villa does indeed stand a metaphorical head and shoulders above the competition in Kalkan thanks to its superb location, luxury finish and — at a show-stopping 21 metres — the longest villa pool in town.
The outside space feels so grand that you half expect a waiter to appear and take your drinks order, yet this realm is reserved just for you and your fortunate guests to enjoy (though we’ll happily book a private chef for you if you like).The pool runs the full length of the front terrace, with mesmerizing views of both the historic Old Town and the sapphire splendour of Kalkan bay beyond. The interiors are equally spacious and sun-lit, fronted by floor-to-ceiling windows and ‘invisible’ glass balconies for a seamless indoor-outdoor holiday vibe.
The inspiration behind the masterpiece is Jimmy Aaladag, Kalkan restaurateur and villa visionary responsible for several of the town’s most opulent residences. His years of experience show in all the important little details, from the games room with pool table, table tennis and table football to a superbly equipped kitchen, but most impressive of all is the location, within walking distance of Kalkan’s amenities and beach clubs. Holiday time is so precious for most of us that proximity is a luxury in itself, and here at Villa Babil you’ll find it easy to come and go as you please, with no need for a car. Teenagers love Kalkan for its beach clubs, shops and harbour cafes, and with all of this within walking distance they can holiday to their own rhythm without the need for parental taxis.
Dinner out is a relaxed affair, with the restaurants of the Korsan Suites and Kalkan Regency Hotel nearby and the Old Town an easy stroll away. Private airport transfers direct to your villa are included, so you can simply relax into the holiday as soon as you arrive, but for those who’d like to see more of the local area, we’re happy to arrange a hire car. Whether you’re keen to explore or just need a little time away from the rigours of every day, Villa Babil is an unparalleled place to indulge your every holiday whim.
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.

There was even an added bonus of a games room for us older kids!!! Thanks again to Jimmy and Kitty who were always at hand if needed with nothing being too much trouble for them. We had a great two weeks and cannot wait to visit again.
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.
