When we got married in Olu Deniz and we came to Calis Beach for 3 nights. We heard about the lovely sandy beach at koca-Calis so decided we would go there.Worst thing we ever did.It took 30 mins to get there by foot and the beach was far from sandy.More like grit I would say and there was'nt really anything there. A so called bar/resturant which was no better than a road side cafe back home.I would not ever go there again and waste a whole day.

We all have our own opinion of different areas. Not sure when you went but it has changed quite a bit up that way now. Many more restaurants now and the Birlik and others have soft sand and free beds.

I am over in Aug/Sept looking to buy. I have already been offered 3/2 bed villas at Koca all below 35k.All needing no modernising.Having had reports on the area etc its very unlikely I will buy any of these.
I might though wait until 2009 and buy them at 25k. as I bet they are still on the market.I have heard it gets very wet in certain places in Koca.   Wet as in total flooding.   jono

I heard that people used to believe the earth was flat,you pay your money and you take your chance, by leaving it a year and in hope thinking the price will fail by 30% is beyond believe, and if you think that the whole of koca calis becomes a flood zone you are mistaken the 35k price you have been quote seems very good value to me.and waiting a year won't make it less likely to flood or will it.

Actually a year might make a difference. You see the council in Ciftlk have been under pressure from the locals (not just Brits) to sort this problem out. The last flood was a bad one and many houses were affected.

It seems one of the main problems was the fact that a many of the drainage ditches were blocked with builders rubbish and that has now been sorted. On top of that I understand the canal has now been dredged so that it carries more water when needed.

My guess is that whilst it will never be totally sorted it will get better as time goes on - so the price of property will probably rise in that area not fall. .

But like any property market - you buy and take a chance.

Davey, you may not like the beach, but the turtles do, and that's what counts. Alan

Looks like young Davey has made his mind up about Calis and........he doesn't like it.....so S**t stirring here we come!

Koca Calis in my opinion is nice and well worth an investment. Whether £35K is worth it or not who knows. I suppose the property needs to be looked at. The coastline of Calis is gradually creeping up there and that can only bring more amenities, people and inevitably property price increases. It was partly why I bought my property in Koca Calis 4 years ago....and it's doing very nicely thank you.

McGroogle.
If you read my post you will see it was the Koca-Calis area I did not like.The main Calis resort we loved.I am not the only one posting negative remarks about Koca-Calis my friend.

I would like koca calis to stay as it is, although that won't happen and if if get close to the hisaranu noise and night life I will move. not a little englander or not in mt back yard thing just I like a quiet life around the place when I am on holiday.

Isn't it nice that young Davey , who so recently joined the forum,has already made a frEInd in McGroogle ! Pay attention there at the back and watch this space.....

Davey,

You stayed one night in the Calis Beach thread and 3 nights in this thread. Which is it and more to the point when was it?

If it was recently then I can't understand your post on Koca Calis as it is much better then your 'wasted day' would suggest. Three or four years ago then maybe I would agree with some of your points. It's not for everyone and I agree you are entitled to your opinion but it would be interesting to know when this was.
