If you’re planning on taking a summer holiday, villas in Turkey can often be a more attractive prospect than booking your family into a hotel. However, if you’re still not convinced, read on to discover some of the benefits that a family villa holiday can provide.
Villas in Turkey are perfect for the whole family
Let’s face it, very few families have exactly 2 children and if you’ve ever tried to book a hotel holiday for a family of 5, then you’ll be aware of the horrors of hotel room logistics. Booking a hotel for anything more (or less) than 2 adults and 2 children is quite simply a complete nightmare. Hotels are perfect for couples without children and families with two children, but if you have more offspring than this and want to avoid hefty single supplements, the answer lies in villas in Turkey.
From the two-bedroom Akinci Evi, in the heart of the Kaya Valley, to the four-bedroom Mediterranean House, in Kalkan, there are villas in Turkey available for families of all sizes, which means that you can even bring granny along.
Villas in Turkey are great for fussy eaters
In a country as beguiling and exotic as Turkey, you have to brace yourself for the possibility that your child might not take to the local cuisine. Hotels are great at catering for fussy eaters, but more often than not the children’s menu consists of three different dishes with chips. If you’re on a two week holiday, forcing your child to eat chips for a fortnight solid is a less than attractive prospect. It’s great for families that villas in Turkey are self-catering
as you can cook your family the meals that they want, when you want to – which also means no sitting around waiting for the hotel restaurant to open.
Turkey is known for its bustling souks, and looking around the markets for local ingredients is all part of the traditional holiday experience. With succulent olives, crusty bread and delicious baklava you’re bound to find something that takes your fancy in the local markets. Most villas in Turkey also include a barbecue alongside a swimming pool, which creates for a fantastic holiday eating experience.
Villa Holidays are quieter
Hotels have to cater to everyone; from the 18-30 year olds on their clubbing holidays to families looking for a relaxing break away from the stresses and strains of modern life. This means that they are often located in bustling neighbourhoods that are close to the beach for families, and near to the clubs for the party-animals. Whilst this in-town location can seem great, do you really want to be nursing your two-year-old back to bed when the drunks start arriving back from their bars and clubs at 3 in the morning? Thought not.
Villas in Turkey differ in that they can be found in secluded locations, overlooking beautiful beaches and nestled amongst greenery. They offer your family the privacy that you require, whilst overlooking scenic landscapes and views unspoiled by clusters of resort hotels. Many villas in Turkey also include their own swimming pool, so there’s no need to share with other families. And if you are a party animal? Well, there are also villas in Turkey located close to bars and clubs in many resorts. But with your own barbecue and swimming pool you could find that you’re the one hosting the party.
