Hi sandy,some people knock the place but i love it,myself and a friend purchased holiday homes in ciflik over 10years ago and we love the place.Where you are looking is up at the top of the village and its lovely up there,i did have a friend living up there but is now back in the uk as she lost her husband.Down at the local beach there are many expats living down there a few bars ect and many english holiday home owners so you have the best of two worlds.And of corse you have the option of calis ect,thats if you like the rat race at least the bars in ciftlick are abit cheaper to eat and drink out,good luck.
