Kalkan abounds in small hotels and apartment flats geared mainly toward the English holiday market. Many take full advantage of the town’s fabulous sea views from steep hillside locations. In summer - and increasingly during the off-season as well - the town turns into a predominantly English colony.

Fidanka Houses stand a head above the many similar establishments offering holiday rooms in Kalkan. The location, in a newly developed section to the East of the town, is less than perfect. But the layout of the property is very pleasant, with 11 spacious rooms hugging a beautiful swimming pool. The interiors are decorated elegantly, in part with valuable antiques. The garden is a riot of flowers. It is the handiwork of Nükhet Hanım, a charming lady from Istanbul who owns and runs the place with her two daughters and their families.
A 300-metre walk down the hill is the beach, where you can dive from rock platforms into the fabulously clear and deep sea.
