Beautiful fully air-conditioned penthouse apartment with shared pool. This development was completed in 2007. It is a front-line beach property with many restaurants within easy walking distance of the apartment. The old town of Side hosts many quality restaurants which cater for all tastes. The fish restaurants are the equal of anywhere on the Mediterranean coast. Many overlook the quaint harbour or the sea to provide a stunning backdrop. There are many shops selling a host of goods including jewellery, gold, Turkish rugs and clothes at very attractive prices. Haggling is the Turkish way of life, and can be extremely good fun for foreigners who are less familiar with this way of trading. A weekly Saturday market is held in Side during the Summer months. It is a golf hot-spot as there are 10 fabulous golf courses within 25 minutes drive of the apartment. Courses designed by Nick Faldo, Colin Montgomerie, and Turkey's first links course have opened in the past year - all of them gems.

Golf
Turkey was awarded Best Golf Destination of the Year - Europe 2008 by the International Association of Golf Tour Operators. There are 13 fabulous Championship Golf Courses in the area. The first links course in Turkey opened in November 2008 attached to the new 6 Star Lykia Hotel. Its dramatic coast-hugging holes are second to none. The Papillon Golf Club (designed by Colin Montgomerie) opened its doors in October 2008, whilst Nick Faldo's Cornelia Golf Course opened late 2006. They are wonderful tests for golfers of all levels. All courses have 5 star club houses. Other courses in the area include The Sultan, National, Gloria Old and New which have played host to PGA competitions over recent years. The best time to play golf is from September until the middle of June, but all year round golf is possible. All clubs have driving ranges. Golf clubs and buggies can be hired on the course. Contact details for the courses can be provided by the owners.
