about us
Dave & Joyce fisher
Jodaruya is owned by Joyce and David Fisher. We live in England most of the year, but are both semi retired and are lucky enough to be able to spend 3 months each year in our beautiful villa. We have four daughters and ten grandchildren who come out to stay with us when we are there (though thankfully, not all at the same time) We didn't rent the villa out for the first four years, but as it was lying empty during the summer months we decided to have a go at renting in 2010. Although it was a worry at first we have had such good reviews from our guests, it gives us a sense of satisfaction that other people enjoy it as much as we do. We have had repeat bookings every year since, which sort of says it all.
WHY THIS PROPERTY?
Like most people we had spent many many years going on holiday all over Europe and other places in the world and always dreamt about owning a holiday home abroad. Although we had been to lots of lovely places nowhere really ticked all the boxes. Then in 2003 we found the Kalamar district of Kalkan. That first time we had booked a hotel. I had spoken to the owner the day before for directions, telling him what time we would be getting there. When we arrived we parked our hire car over the road from the hotel and as we got out we heard a voice say "Welcome David" This turned out to be Zeynal the owner and from that day on we have felt at home and welcome in Kalkan. Ruya is Turkish for dream and Joda is short for Joyce and David hence the villa's name JODARUYA It is our dream.
Unique Benefits
Set just above the impressive Kalamar Bay, at the base of the Taurus Mountains. Villa Jodaruya’s location makes the most of the uninterrupted sea views. The centre of Kalkan with its picturesque harbour and chic restaurants is only a 20 minute walk away. There is a 10 minute walk to the nearest Supermarket and local restaurants. A short down hill walk brings you to two beach clubs by the sea in Kalamar Bay.
Whilst there are lots of lovely villas in Kalkan with beautiful views you will find that lots of those views are from a roof or bedroom terrace. Jodaruya has uninterrupted views from right across the front of the pool terrace so there is no need to go upstairs for that fabulous vista.
