Lemon Tree Villa
This region is the heart of ancient Lycia and host to a number of historic sites amongst which Kaunos, Tlos, Pinara, Letoon, Xanthos and Patara are particularly noteworthy. The Gulf is also rich in scenic opportunity with plenty to explore - the dramatic beaches of the Fethiye Peninsula, the market town of Fethiye itself, the fascinating ruins of the old Greek settlement at Kaya, the remarkable Dalyan Delta and - our favourite - the mountain ranges themselves.
Situated on a high plateau 4 km from the coast and surrounded by stunning mountains, the once sleepy villages of Hisaronu and Ovacik have combined to create a lively resort. The nearest beaches are the famous lagoon of Oludeniz or the pebble and sand beach of Belcekiz. A Dolmus leaves every five or ten minutes.
The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Hisaronu / Central Hisaronu area
Hisaronu, and the Fethiye area in general, are blessed with a rugged and beautiful landscape, the potential of which for activity holidays (and holiday activities) is just being realised. Hisaronu is special because its location means that you can paraglide in Oludeniz one day, canoe down the Xanthos river to Patara the next, paintball in the pine forests of Kaya Koyu and still take an overnight trip to the classical ruins of Ephesus.
The village is full of bars, restaurants and shops. This is certainly the place to haggle for any imitation designer gear. The cool mountain air can be quite a relief after a day in the sun and there is plenty to do in the evening.
