Villas Yasemin
Self catering villa/apartment accommodation
Gocek, Turkey
Undiscovered by mass tourism, Gocek has been declared a special environmental protection area and has become a sought after location for the independent holidaymaker. With several small marinas it is an excellent place for sailing, attracting the yachting fraternity from all over the world.
Relatively quiet by day as the locals go about their business, Gocek comes alive in the evening. Take a leisurely stroll along the marina waterfront, and stop at one of the many waterside bars to enjoy a drink or two as the sun goes down over the mountains, before sampling the local cuisine in one of the many restaurants.
An idyllic place, for those seeking a relaxing holiday with real Turkish hospitality.
Villas Yasemin consist of two identical villas built to a high standard in a traditional Turkish style. They have been constructed to allow each floor to be let separately as an apartment if required, providing a flexible arrangement depending on the number of guests. One villa is kept primarily for the use of the owners, but can often be made available - ideal for friends or families holidaying together.
Enclosed in a private walled garden planted with fragrant jasmine, honeysuckle, citrus trees and banana palms, the villas are separated by sunbathing terraces, and a large swimming pool: 5.5m x 10.5m and 1.3 - 1.6m in depth.
The owners of the property have a 40' yacht, which can be made available to guests on a private skippered charter basis. Enjoy a' hands on' sailing experience or just sit back, relax and enjoy the stunning scenery! Join us for a day or combine a few days on the yacht with the remainder in the villa / apartment. The spectacular coastline reveals many small islands and sheltered bays, otherwise inaccessible. Perfect for a lunchtime or overnight stop. See Sail & Stay for more details.
