Stay at Kalkan private villas and visit a Hamam. The Turkish Hamam is the Middle Eastern variant of a steam bath, which can be categorized as a wet relative of the sauna. They have played an important role in cultures of the Middle-East, serving as places of social gathering, ritual cleansing and as architectural structures, institutions, and (later) elements with special customs attached to them. Europeans learned about the Hamam via contacts with Turkey hence the European name for it: "Turkish" Hamam or Turkish Bath.
Taking a Turkish bath involves first relaxing in a room (known as the warm room), heated by a continuous flow of hot dry air allowing the bather to perspire freely. Bathers may then move to an ever hotter room (known as the hot room) before splashing themselves with cold water. After performing a full body wash and receiving a massage, bathers finally retire to the cooling-room for a period of relaxation. There is a Turkish bath 5 mins from our villa atLa Sera, opposite the Elixir Hotel. There are also places in town as well. You have the flexibility to do what you want when you want, when you spend your holidays in Kalkan private villas.
