dh and i have been married 24 years and never had a holiday just the two of us....so we are pushing the boat out and planning to go away next year.
so now im driving myself insane.....
first of all i was looking at all inclusive child free luxurious hotels for stupid money. A) cant afford stupid money and B) they still get some bad reviews on trip advisor....and not sure a hotel would be for me.

so now im thinking do what we have always done in this country....and go independent - find a nice villa or apartment.
get flights separately and car hire if needed.
not scared of doing that and have done it before with the kids (twice!) in spain.

i like to do my own thing anyway, hate reps, hate noise, like eating out at local places and trying to fit in a wee bit....butlins style holiday resorts are not for me....so i would hate the watered down drinks and the entertainment in a hotel.....

its also going to be a good deal cheaper to do it independently.

so now all i need is recommendations! ive found flights. ive found car hire. i need a luxurious and lovely home from home in turkey. with a pool. and preferably no kids but thats a big ask....

can anyone help?
thanks!

For a nice grown up holiday in Turkey I would recommend exclusive escapes. We stayed in Kas a couple of years ago with them, in a boutique hotel and it was perfect. I think they have some villas as well as a lot of really nice chilled boutique style hotels in various locations in Turkey. A little more expensive but 100% worth it.

I also recommend EE. I'm finding it hard to travel to any country but Turkey and with anyone but EE nowadays. Haven't been to any of their villas but have been to 3 of their hotels and they were all superb. Prices aren't too steep for what you get either.

Many, many very nice villas in Kalkan, Turkey.

Have a look at Korsan company in Kalkan: www.korsankalkan.com/

It is run by a Turkish guy & his English wife, Uluch & Claire. They really know how to do rentals etc. We always stayed in the Korsan apartments when we used to go to Kalkan.

Do PM me if you want more info.

I have no connection at all with Korsan.
