Beautifully furnished well equipped villa, home from home but with fantastic views, a pool, which we basically had to ourselves and of course glorious sunshine. Location just opposite the Thursday market, and easy walk to the old town. Support from Jane at Lale homes when required was excellent. Would highly recommend 👌.

Just returned home from 11 nights at Minerva. When we arrived we were wowed at how lovely the apartment is – it is beautifully decorated with lovely tiles and wooden ceilings. The kitchen is well kitted out and we often cooked at the apartment. The water cooler is a great feature (we refilled it twice during our stay at a reasonable cost) as is the air conditioning which was very much appreciated in the heat. The bathrooms were lovely with helpful light up mirrors and the bedrooms and living room were spacious and comfortable.

Minerva is the ground floor apartment in a beautiful site of 6. The living space opens onto a spacious balcony with views over the swimming pool and to the sea and mountains further afield. Every day we soaked up the views and at night the twinkling lights of the apartments on the opposite hillside lit up Kalkan like a Christmas tree! There are bars, restaurants and shops right on the doorstep (2 minute walk away) and then 5-10 minutes walk into the old town. Our favourite was Lime Bar round the corner which had a pool table and dart board and so kept our boys occupied in the evening.

Jane and Elsie at Lale Homes were super helpful from the moment I booked until the moment we left – Jane couldn’t have been more helpful and was always on hand to answer any questions via whatsapp once we arrived. They provided a perfect service and I would absolutely book with them in future and would happily return to Minerva again.

We were really sad to leave and all agreed it was the best family holiday we’ve had and part of that was due to the lovely setting!

Thank you!

We have just returned from a wonderfully relaxing 11 days in Kalkan.

The Minerva apartment is fantastically located just a ten minute walk into the town and is equipped with everything you need for a holiday.

We were really lucky in having the swimming pool to ourselves for the duration of our stay and enjoyed all the outdoor space.

It was extremely hot and so we appreciated the excellent air conditioning!

I’d really recommend this apartment and the service we received from Lale Homes which was outstanding throughout our stay.

Loved Minerva apartment – we stayed for two weeks and it was a perfect space for my husband, myself and daughter.

Fabulous views, comfortable beds good showers and great air-con. It has a high quality but homely feel.

The pool was lovely, warm, sparkling clean and we were the only ones using it for the two weeks.

The location is great, close enough to walk to the old town and harbour but still tucked away and quiet.

There are also some great cafes and restaurants within a few minutes walk.

The Thursday market is just across the road.

The apartment is well equipped and we had a couple of BBQs as it is such a lovely terrace and view.

Jane and Elsie at Lale were so helpful with any requests – I’d really recommend Minerva and Lale.

As first time visitors to Kalkan, we are now totally in love 🥰.

We arrived after midnight after a very long journey and accessed the property very easily.

We opened the door and literally said ‘wow’. This is a beautiful, authentic yet modern apartment and we opened up the doors to the most stunning starlit sky and the lights of the houses from the mountains down to the sea.

Having a water cooler ready stocked was fantastic.

The apartment has absolutely everything you could need and more. Who knew I would need and use all 3 different sizes of cafetières 😂.

The pool is super and we felt as if it was our own at times as it wasn’t busy at all.

The development has 2 residential tortoises who love to eat leftover salad and veg scraps.

We didn’t go out as much as we thought as one of our party had a terrible head cold for 3 days so the apartment came into its own for meals at ‘home’.

We loved meals out on the balcony and we just wish we were staying longer.

We hope to return to Minerva very soon. 🇹🇷❤️

Our second time staying at Minerva and it didn’t disappoint.

The owners had updated the bedrooms with new beds and spacious wardrobes since our last visit which was a nice surprise.

Very central to supermarkets and restaurants.

Would highly recommend this apartment and hope to return in the future.

This is an attractive apartment set in well-kept grounds. The apartment is well equipped and very comfortable.

There are two good pools at the complex. The location is good, close to the weekly market, supermarkets, bakery and greengrocer.

Although close to the Main Street it is very quiet. It is about a 10 minute walk to the beach/Old Town.

I would definitely stay in the apartment again.

Communication with Lale Homes was good and they arranged the transfers to the airport.

The vehicles and drivers were excellent.

Great place to stay close to everything.

Pool was pretty much your own private pool.

Jane and the team provided great communication regarding check out times and transfer/flight problems

Beautiful and well-appointed apartment in a fabulous spot!

We loved all the individual touches in the apartment and we were even provided with some essentials in the fridge on our arrival, which was very welcome!

The pool was lovely and very well maintained.

Lots of useful information and tips were provided in the information pack.

The size of the apartment was very comfortable for 2 adults and 2 teenagers, and we loved eating and relaxing outside on the balcony area. The location was great – could walk to the town beach in 10 minutes and had a local supermarket, greengrocer, bakery and fishmonger around the corner.

It was close enough to the old town to access easily but just far enough away to be a lovely, quiet spot.

Jane was very responsive and helpful with any enquiries.

We would highly recommend!

Super clean. Central location of Kalkan. Professionally managed property.

It was so kind that having the all basics (milk, bread, extra cleaning products, spices, etc.).

Such a beautiful pool!!

Highly recommend If you plan to stay in Kalkan
