Su Villas - General Information
The Su Villas are situated off Turgutreis Caddesi in Serif Mehmet çikmazi. Straight up the hill for 50 metres turn left and at the end of the cul de sac you will see the wood and iron gates of the cottages. The Lemon House is on the left through an archway. The Tower House is through the gates on the right.
If you get lost simply ask any taxi driver for the Mausoleum and you are only 200 metres away.
The cottages are Greek in origin and have a long and colourful history. They were re-built in 2003.
The theme of the internal design is an Ottoman officer's house of the mid nineteenth century. The internal fittings and fixtures reflect that period, and include local carpets, kilims, embroidery and antique Roman and Ottoman artefacts.
The 21st century is reflected by modern plumbing and lighting. However we have remained faithful to our theme by utilising local craftsman to make the kitchen and other detailed fittings.
Tiling in the bathrooms use designs from the Harem at the Topkapi palace in Istanbul .
The doors and windows are of a typical Aegean design.
Paving is reminiscent Rhodes courtyard.
The fireplaces are unique. The stones undoubtedly come from the ancient city of Halicarnassus and are around 3.000 years old.
