Apartments in Turunc Village, Nr. Marmaris, Aegean Region, Turkey
Ground Floor Apartment with Stunning Scenic Views
Quiet Location, 10 mins Walk to the Beach
Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)
|
|
Fidan 4 is set in a peaceful location, just a few minutes walk away from the beach, in this small, picturesque fishing village which has only been discovered by British holiday makers in recent years. The apartment, which is on the ground floor of a two storey building, has easy access to all amenities, including the local market, and great bars and restaurants for eating out, and provides all the facilities of a real home from home for relaxing. There are two large balconies with swimming pool and garden views, each with good quality outdoor furniture, which make a great setting for breakfast or dinner alfresco. The pool is shared, but our visitors are often fortunate in being the sole users, which also means there is plenty of room in which to place sun beds for that beautiful Turkish tan. A car is not necessary if you wish to remain in Turunc, but jeeps, motorcycles, and bicycles are available for hire should you wish to take a tour around the breathtaking scenery.

Accessibility
The property grounds are accessed by one step from the kerbside. Two steps from the outer entrance hall take you to the apartment which is on one level and is spacious. Turunc has a wonderful backdrop of hills and mountains, but the beach and local shops are located within level walking distance from the apartment.
Outside
The gated balcony takes you directly to the swimming pool and the apartment provides 4 sun loungers and an umbrella for your personal use. Quality outdoor furniture includes table and four chairs for the large balcony and a smaller table with two chairs for the bedroom balcony, each with cushions for comfort. The garden and pool are communal, shared between six apartments, however, the pool is often available for the sole use of our apartment. Disposable barbecues can be purchased locally and the space within the grounds makes an ideal location for its use and family entertainment. If you would like to dine at the apartment and prefer not to cook, the lady at the local shop can supply one of her freshly home made casseroles and will have it delivered to you - just place the order in the morning. The light from the pool together with a candlelit balcony and nicely laid table creates a lovely tranquil atmosphere in which to dine in the evening.
Coast/Beach
Turunc beach is a 10-15 minute walk away and has recently achieved the European Blue Flag Award. Its secluded bay with beautiful clear blue water is surrounded by stunning mountainous scenery and is lined with friendly restaurants. The larger resorts of Icmelar and Marmaris can be reached by bus or by boat within approximately 15 and 30 minutes respectively for those wishing to experience a busier area. There are numerous bars and clubs in Marmaris for those seeking nightlife.
Special interest holidays

Travel
Dalaman is the nearest airport and the distance to Turunc is approximately 120km. Transfer arrangements can be made for you at the time of booking, allowing you the opportunity to enjoy the magical scenery en route. Fees for this are payable to our representative. A car is not absolutely necessary during your holiday, as there are many forms of transportation for a reasonable cost, but we would recommend hiring a jeep for a few days to take full advantage of the surrounding scenery.
Distances
The busier town of Marmaris is approximately 20km along the coastline, and Icmeler just 10km. The remote and pretty beaches of Amos and Kumlubuk are just a few minutes drive away and worth a visit. Turunc, with its beautiful surroundings, and clear blue waters is the ideal place to relax and unwind, forgetting the every day stresses of life. Tour operators offer many excursions, some for the day, and some with an overnight stay or two.
