We are a family of 5 adults and had a great stay in Customs House in Kalkan. The house is lovingly decorated and quite spacious. Every bedroom has its own bathroom, it has lovely balconies and terraces everywhere and the view over the harbor and beach is awesome. We loved the plunge pool on top of the house! The location is even better, right at the beach and in the middle of Kalkan with its many restaurants and shops.
A car is not necessary. We had a wonderful holiday and can fully recommend the pink Customs House!
