Property Details of Mediterranean Apartment

The apartment
Designed by one of Turkey's top architects and constructed on white, local stone terraces leading down to the Mediterranean, you won't believe how beautiful Patara Prince resort is, even when you're there! Situated 1 km across the bay from Kalkan (one of the INDEPENDENT'S top destinations for 2007) amid abundant tropical gardens, and with views to die for by day and by night, Patara Prince resort is unrivalled in this part of the Mediterranean for style and elegance.
'You could imagine yourself on the Cote d'Azur without the pretentiousness. Drive along the mountain-backed road to Kas, and you might be touring the Amalfi coast' THE TIMES
With stunning sea and Kalkan views from the private, bougainvillea-swathed balcony, inside, the apartment boasts a wealth of character features including french windows, vaulted cedarwood ceiling, bamboo-screened window separating kitchen from living area, atmospheric ceiling fan in bedroom (and mosquito netting at window) and tasteful furnishings throughout. Fully air-conditioned, all mod cons include living area with 2 sofabeds (1 double, the other converts into 2 singles), 26-channel satellite TV, CD/MP3/USB/SD/MMC player (so you can take all your music on a memory stick); king-size bed in bedroom, safety-deposit box in wardrobe; washing machine, ironing board and iron, marble worktops with fitted electric hob and mini-oven, kettle and toaster in kitchen; hairdryer in bathroom and 2 cushioned sun loungers on the balcony. A shop which stocks all the essentials you're likely to need is literally a stone's throw away as is an infinity pool (one of the 3 pools on the complex), kids' pool, tennis courts and car park.
