Gocek is a small seaside farming village turned into the top yachting center of Turkey which lies on a valley surrounded by hills on three sides. Due to abundant freshwater, the warm climate and very fertile soil, farming is still practiced even though land prices have skyrocketed in the last decade since Gocek became an internationally famous port city. Just two blocks from the promenade by the sea, houses still have their little gardens where residents grow all kind vegetables from tomatoes to eggplants, and the sidewalks are covered by orange, tangerine, grapefuit and lemon trees, so typical of the southern Mediterranean, marking the city’s solid connection with the land in addition to what it is famous for, the beautiful coves and bays around. The green panorama of the city is further accented by the everpresent pine trees along the hills. With a wide choice of local and international restaurants, beaches within a short drive from the location of our private villas with pools this is a perfect place to spend your holiday.
