The villa will be cleaned before your arrival and on departure. Beds made up with clean linen and bath towels left out. If you would like extra cleaning / linen change during your stay, this can be provided at additional cost.
The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Known as the Turquoise Coast, this area provides lovely beaches, a wide selection of shopping and a popular weekly market, along with opportunities to parachute, hang glide, wind surf, water ski, scuba dive, sail, play tennis or go horse riding. There is also a water park in Ovacik.
Oludeniz:
The Villa is only 3 kms away from the very lively Oludeniz Beach town centre. Why not explore the beautiful Blue Lagoon where a wide bay of coarse white sand curves round to meet a sheltered natural lagoon of calm, crystal clear water that is ideal for swimming and a wonderful spot for children to explore and play. The Blue Lagoon is one of the best places in the world to do absolutely nothing but soak up the sun amid stunning natural surroundings. Ideal to sit and watch the paragliders coming in to land from Babadag mountain whilst taking a break from the sun, or even party to the early hours of the morning. The dolmus, the local bus, leaves every five or ten minutes from Ovacik to Oludeniz.
Fethiye:
No more than a 15 min dolmus ride away is the great harbour town of Fethiye offering a wide variety of shops and curios, restaurants to eat in, and boat owners with whom to plan memorable boat excursions. The weekly Market on Tuesday is great for locals and tourists alike, traders come from far and wide to sell goods ranging from handbags to hand-made backgammon sets to the freshest of local fruit and vegetables. Be prepared to barter! Fethiye is known for its rock tombs carved into the faces of the cliffs by the Lycians. These are elaborately carved and an especially remarkable; one is the tomb of Amnytas dating from the 4th century BC built in Doric architectural style. It is well worth visiting. Other historical places in the city are the Sarcopaghi and the Fethiye Tower.
Hisaronu:
The village of Ovacik is situated within 1.5km (5 minute bus journey or 20 min easy walk) to the lively Hisaronu village centre which is full of bars and restaurants that cater for all budgets and tastes:- Indian, Chinese, Italian, Turkish, English, Mexican. Hisaronu contains all the amenities expected from a small town abroad. Great shops (selling local crafts), local Monday market, cash points, pharmacies, doctors and supermarkets. This is the place to haggle for any imitation designer gear and admire the mountain views.

We have just returned from a wonderful two week stay at Villa Portakal - 2 adults and 3 kids (14,12 & 7).
The villa is of a really high standard with beautiful, eclectic furnishings and everything you need for your holiday. The bed in the master bedroom is one of the comfiest I've ever slept on which doesn't sound that important but it really does make such a difference to the whole holiday when you get a good nights' sleep - for the first time ever I wasn't craving my own bed.
The only reason I've marked down the cleanliness is because the showers could do with a (little) bit of a regrout but that's really all, the rest of it was immaculate.
The pool is beautiful, a bit on the small side but that's only because we've got two strapping lads who seemed to occupy the entire space.
The local area is really nice, we ate out in some fabulous restaurants in both Ovacik and Olu Deniz - incredible food and really friendly staff. We really didn't like Hisaronu and its neon light, mass tourist feel, it's just not us but it's very easily avoided.
We didn't hire a car and didn't feel we needed to. Taxis were cheap and super efficient and we could walk into Ovacik in under 15 minutes. The local Ces shop was great for the basics - water, wine, beer, crisps, bread etc and they delivered everything to the door for free. When we needed fresh food we walked to town and got a taxi back (less than £5).
The views from the villa are simply stunning, the sunset in the evening was breathtaking. There is a lovely breeze around the pool/patio that means you can sit out in the sun all day if you wish. The only downside is there really is no shade in the afternoon. There is a very large umbrella but it kept falling down in the breeze so wasn't usable but it didn't really matter, if you got hot you dipped back in the pool or sat in the large, cool lounge for a while.
The maintenance team were called on a couple of times and they were brilliant, arriving a matter of minutes after we called them in most cases.
Debra the owner was fantastic to deal with. Really prompt with her replies and and answered all our questions in full and without any issue, it never appeared to be any trouble - and we asked her a lot!!
I would highly recommend Villa Portakal, it was a truly memorable holiday for us.

We stayed at this Villa for 2 weeks in August 2015 and we were not disappointed. Everything about this villa oozes quality, from the fixtures and fittings to the extremely comfortable beds, no expense has been spared. We arranged our transfer after a recommendation from Debra (Owner) and it was effortless. The Villa is in a great location and you get a bit of a breeze from the mountain which makes lying in the sun a bit easier. You can easily walk onto the Ovacik "strip" or carry on down into Hisaronu but if required, there is a taxi call button just outside the villa. We have enjoyed Villa holidays for many years but this was by far the best we have ever stayed in. Contact with the owner was easy which made the whole experience even better - a fantastic family holiday!!

Grahame
Villa Portakal is a wonderfully appointed property and exceeded our expectations it has been furnished to a very high standard in every room. We had a thoroughly relaxing week by the pool and on the super comfortable quality sun loungers - a small point but it makes a big difference. Debra, the owner, was easy to deal with and communication was a pleasure. All in all one of the best villas weve stayed in and one that would be hard pressed to beat for value and luxury at the price point. Grahame & Julie
