The beautiful view from our balcony, out to the sea one way and up to the
mountains in the other direction...A fantastic, relaxing, family vacation a world away from the stereotypical family Tenerife vacation that you might find on the south of the island!

Most enjoyable. A relaxing, restful vacation. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Michael, the owner of the house was very helpful and seemed to have a great rapport with the community. The house is amazingly beautiful.

Our apartment was very thoughtfully decorated and equipped, the rooms light, pretty and tasteful, in a simple Greek style but with personal touches and everything we needed for making the odd evening meal.

To find such wonderful accommodation in so rural a location was quite amazing. Our villa was a very well designed, spotlessly clean, spacious house.

This was a fantastic day where we were taken around a bay by Captain Halil, we swam in the clear sea and his mother cooked us a lunch of freshly caught fish and kebabs. Fantastic! So much to do in this area of Turkey.

Tochni was one of the most beautiful villages in the area. It suited us because it was very quiet. Renovating old buildings provides an immediate atmosphere to the vacation and is much better than staying in a new apartment.

Overall we would rate our vacation 10 out of 10 and fully intend to visit again in the spring, when the wild flowers are blooming. The vineyard is one of the nicest places we have stayed - just what we needed after a stressful year in our business.

The Villa in Uzumlu was absolutely stunning and the surrounding area really beautiful - the sea water was so warm and so turquoise that it almost seemed unreal.

We loved being on a farm with animals and olive trees all around. We found the area had a rural feel.
