All our Villas are located in quiet area of the resort of Alanya, close to and overlooking the beach. But there is still easy access to restaurants, shops and nightlife in the Town Centre of Alanya.

Yesiloz has a wide variety of shops and restaurants. There is a frequent bus service into the town centre. The buses run along the beach road, and its only about 10 minutes walk to the bus stop from the villas.

Yesiloz is one of the original parts of the resort of Alanya with lots of Sandy Turkish Beaches all the way along the main road.

Yesiloz is a beatiful beach area in the resort of Alanya. There are shops and most of the locals are farmers or work in Alanya. There are lots of small shops within easy walking, and there is a bus stop with frequent buses to the centre of Alanya. We are on the bus route for Gazipasa, a major town, and so there are lots of buses.

The local shops have most of the day to day items and  because they are mainly for the local, they are very cheap and very friendly. There is a barber and they will do massage, shave and hair cut for about £3. There is a weekly market in Yesiloz and it is certainly worth a visit, simply to see what a country market looks and feels like. Guests should enjoy a glass of "Chi" tea if they are asked, it is free and lovely.

It is true what they say about unspoilt areas. Yesiloz is in a time warp, yet every year we see changes, however it has not lost it warm welcome and friendly ambience. The locals sip tea, watching the day go by, not a care in the world. This is the life!! Guests assume these people are poor yet many own large farms, and shares in some of the big hotels along the coast.

 There are lots of small shops within easy walking, and there is a bus stop with frequent buses to the  Sea side town of Alanya. We are on the bus route for the Town of Gazipasa, a major town, and so there are lots of buses. There is lots to see and do around the villas: have a look at our Guide to Yesiloz.

The locals are friendly and the one we know the best is Memhet and he lives there with his sons and daughters and another family who work the fields and greenhouses. They grow all sorts of fruit and vegetables which can normally be bought for next to nothing.  Watching the women and daughters making bread on the outside stove is wonderful and even though you may not speak the language you will soon realize you are in the company to genuinely want to extend a welcome to you.

There are two local mosques where you can visit or pray. All the locals are Moslems and you should respect their place of worship, otherwise they are very western and welcoming. There are lots of things to do a little further a field. There is a local bus service which will take you to the centre of Alanya in one direction and Gazipasa in the other. Both are well worth a visit. The drive to Gazipasa is wonderful. There is the old historical sit of Iotape on the way. The wealth of archaeology, the stunning forested coast line and impossibly blue sea, the gentle friendliness of the people who run the road site restaurants and the delicious cuisine mean that even before you end the 10km journey you have had a day out.

You can also go inland but you will need a car but a visit up into the local mountains is well worth a day out. What you must understand is that most of the locals have very little money to spend and this is useful because it means that almost all the local amenities are unspoilt and such things as beaches are free. In addition whereas in Alanya there are lots of trips on Boats etc and good quality cruises etc in the more rural part the local people will happily take you along fishing for free in much the same way as you would never thing of charging a stranger on a train to sit and talk to you.
