Villa Zarif sits in a superb and sought-after location at the end of Kaş’s Çukurbağ peninsula, which stretches from the Old Town out into the sea. It’s home to the area’s best beach clubs and most impressive properties, and Villa Zarif is no exception. Light, spacious and encircled by attractive Mediterranean greenery, the house is just 400m from the sea, commanding the most amazing panoramic views across the water to the Greek island of Meis. From the sublime 11-metre infinity pool that makes you feel you could swim all the way to Meis, to the glass-fronted balconies and light-filled, minimalist interiors, the whole place has a grown-up glamour that’s ideal for a group of friends and perfect for a special occasion.

This is a villa that’s designed for socialising, with plenty of seating room and a shady barbecue area so you can feed a crowd with relative ease. The sunsets are glorious, whether you’ve been out all day and looking forward to dinner by the pool, or enjoying an aperitif before heading into town for some fabulous Turkish food. Kaş has retained more of its Turkish character than most along this coast, and has some wonderful local shops and restaurants tucked away amongst the bougainvillea-garlanded Ottoman houses and pedestrianised streets. If you’re looking for more active entertainment, Kaş is the scuba centre of the Turquoise Coast, with horse-riding, climbing and canyoning all on offer nearby. But perhaps the greatest joy of all in this wonderful spot is the pool, the view and the company of friends in a stunningly lovely place.

Our choice of Greek properties is as diverse as the islands themselves, ranging from simple seaside charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal. To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.
