Hi all, I actually joined this forum last year looking for info on Calis before our family holiday there last June, but never posted. I lost my log in details and have had to re-regiser. What was supposed to be probably the last holiday we could convince our kids to come on with us turned out to be a bit of a disaster, the villa we rented was actually in Koca Calis/Ciflik very close to Club Turquaz Garden Hotel and slighty remote...a little too remote as it turned out as on evening 3 of our 17 night holiday we were broken into while out. They chiselled into the concrete around the security grille on one of the patio doors to gain access and as the villa at that time had no safe deposit box we lost a huge amount of stuff (around £1300 worth in total). It left the kids feeling very unsettled and insecure and we actually came home after just a week
However we loved the little of the area we did see and really enjoyed eating at was Suats 1881 so my husband and myself found ourselves a cheap 10 day break at the Pelin Hotel a few weeks later. We loved being nearer the centre of Calis and are hoping to return this summer. We've managed to persuade all 3 kids to come with us by agreeing they can bring friends..not so much kids really as we have 2 boys of 20 and 19 and a daughter of 16!
Anyway, I've spent weeks looking for suitable villas in the right location and with a largish pool (at least 8x4 and preferably larger as the kids spent a lot of time in the pool last year), with at least 4 bedrooms (to sleep
and still available for 2 weeks starting around 25th June. I know there are loads of villas about Calis but can't seem to find many that fit the bill. After our disaster we'd really prefer to be more central. I have found one on a complex of 10 with a small private pool and a larger communal one, which would possibly suit but does anyone have, or are able to recommend a villa that would fit the bill please.
Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to take the opportunity to introduce myself properly as well as putting my query to you all.
