2025 Early Bird Prices...

Nestled above Söğüt, two-bedroom Villa Manzana is stylish, romantic and seductively private, with arguably the best views anywhere on the entire Bozburun peninsula. The house looks directly out over the cobalt blue of the Aegean, dotted with fishing craft, ferries to Symi and the occasional sleek yacht making its way to Söğüt harbour for a meal in one of the renowned waterfront restaurants there.

The comfortable interiors are understated and elegant, decorated in soothing earthy shades against a background of brilliant, sun-lit white that feels both uplifting and relaxing. Outside, the pool takes centre stage, perfectly placed to take in the sheltered curve of Söğüt bay and the islands that define its distinctive skyline. The bay twinkles into life at dusk as restaurants light their tables for the evening’s visitors and the sun sinks slowly down in a blaze of pink and gold. It’s just a five-minute drive to Söğüt’s atmospheric seafood restaurants, but if you prefer to walk you’ll find delicious home cooking and a table with a view at two family-run restaurants just a short distance from the villa. Secluded but not isolated, this is a magical spot for a honeymoon, anniversary or just the simple pleasure of quality time in a beautiful place.

A wonderful place for a chill-out week in the sun - fab views, great food at several very local restaurants, great villa, just fantastic, and all booked so easily with less than 3 days' notice. There isn't a lot to do but in such a relaxing and authentic place who needs that. Scrabble, a book and a glass of wine is just fine.

Mr David Birch, July 2024

We've been very happy, yet again, with the service we've received from Simpson - from the greeting at the airport, to the efficient, helpfulness and ease of picking up/dropping off hire car. Also a big thank you to the concierge, Nihat who is extremely knowledgeable about the local area and was always very helpful and efficient with answering any queries we had during our stay. We had a very enjoyable stay in Sogut and can highly recommend the Villa Manzana as a place to stay!

Mr Robert Groves, July 2024

The breathtaking view from the villa is incredible and awe-inspiring. The shelter from the trees makes it a very special place to relax and forget. It has been a wonderful and memorable trip. Thank you so much.

Dr Charles Weston & Catherine Forneit, June 2024

We have had the best holiday yet with Simpson, this time in Villa Manazana. Everything was good and we intend to book for next year. Your local rep. Nihad was absolutely great, and a wonderful ambassador for Simpson.

Mr Alan Savery, June 2024

A wonderful holiday with the most incredible view, just fantastic!

Mr Charles Weston, June 2024

Another fantastic holiday in Söğüt. Villa Manzana is perfect, beautiful views and fabulous sunsets. Third time for us with Simpson in this great part of Turkey. Eaten lots of delicious fish and had many wonderful swims in the sea. Nihat was very helpful. We will be back.

Clare and Steve, September 2023

Simpson Travel is by far the best travel company we have ever used. Their attention to detail and customer service are second to none. The Villa Manzana was quite simply stunning. The photos on the website do not do it justice. The villa, the resort, the people and the views are all amazing. Nihat is a total credit to you, he is charming, knowledgeable and informative. Nothing was too much trouble, from local information to making restaurant reservations. We are already looking to book to come back in October.

Lorraine Spurgeon, July 2023

Our stay was amazing, many thanks to Nihat and the in-resort team for making our stay so seamless and pleasant at all times. We loved the welcome pack and the boat trip with Captain Mutlu recommended by Nihat.

Isabella Badura, June 2023

What a beautiful villa with glorious views. Have enjoyed our stay – mostly relaxing by the pool and walking around the villa and discovering ancient footpaths, well and truly ‘off the beaten track’! We didn’t feel the need to explore too far having stayed in Söğüt six years ago in Zeytin Evi. There are plenty of choices for eating out, but our favourite was dining on the terrace at the villa enjoying the sunset and changing light over the bay.

Sue & Andy, June 2023

I had an excellent, relaxing and impeccably well organised holiday at Villa Manzana. The villa is beautiful and enjoys the most amazing views, while the Bozburun peninsula offers plenty of opportunities for sightseeing and walking together with excellent restaurants - but without crowds, particularly early in the season. Would thoroughly recommend.

Gillian McGrattan, May 2023

This is a beautiful and special place with kind and gentle people.

Simpson Traveller, May 2023

The location of this villa is quite spectacular. Sogut is a friendly and authentic. The beaches are beautiful and restaurant options were plentiful.

Clifton D'Cunha, August 2022

It was delightful. Booked the holiday in 2019 but delayed for obvious reasons. Had to change villa as original one was sold but Villa Manzana was a wonderful destination. Tranquil, private and very comfortable, with amazing views.

Ellen Dunne, June 2022

This is a truly wonderful place to stay. We hardly left Villa Manzana because we were so happy just to be there and enjoyed the stunning view, particularly at sunset. We will definitely return.

Laura Heraty, May 2022

Villa Manzana is a beautiful place to while away sunny days. Extremely relaxing and a beautiful place with mesmerizing views.

Martin Maynard, May 2022

We feel lucky to be able to stay at Villa Manzana again five years later and particularly to be able to escape at this globally difficult time. It is such a stylish and beautifully planned space! The highlights are the views in every direction and from the pool in particular. One can easily get here and just enjoy this great space. Merdane brought lovely and plentiful meze on arrival and have been friendly and helpful as ever. Jesisca also offered efficient and useful assistance. As previous visitors have mentioned, we also recommend Saranda next door, Mehmet’s and the Monday market in Söğüt. Ciftlik beach for swimming – still and quiet in the mornigns on the far side. Our only upset was not being able to stay longer.

Tijana & Mike Green, September 2020

We have enjoyed two weeks’ relaxation – pretty villa with exceptional views and lovely outdoor space and a veranda area to watch the boats go by. We visited Marmaris after a gap of many years, as well as Söğüt, Bozburun and the charming boutique fishing village of Selimye, as well as nearby villages and Bayir (noted for its ancient plane tree in the square). We have sampled many of the local restaurants in Söğüt and Selimye. Weather has been fantastic throughout – not a cloud in the sky and over 30 degrees daily. It has been a respite from Covid-19 life at home.

Jaqueline & John, September 2020

For the 4th year running, Simpson Travel has delivered again! You found us a great villa, in a private location, amongst the trees and bougainvillea, overlooking the beautiful panorama of Söğüt. Jessica is a credit to your organisation, you must be proud! She ensures you receive a personal touch and is always looking to improve and take the holiday experience to the next level.

Sarah B, October 2019

Reluctantly just about to depart this wonderful villa and village. The views have mesmerised us for the last seven days and the memories will help to sustain us through a dreary English winter. For a close shave try the barbers in the top village on the right on the road to Marmaris. Happy to recommend all the restaurants we ate at – Manzara, Mehmets, Thyssanos, Octopus in the next bay, Deniz Kizi, and Insinti. The drive to Serce Limoni is well worth it.

Sarah & Anthony, October 2019

We feel that we have just got into the swing and now have to fly. Relaxed a lot! We will be back. We seem only to have scratched the surface of this fantastic region.

Carolyn & Andy, October 2019

Jess was amazing, we travel a lot but she has been the best rep we have ever experienced. Her information, assistance and general obvious enthusiasm for Turkey was exemplary. We really enjoyed the holiday returning refreshed and energised.

RB, September 2019

Our sixth Simpson Travel holidayand Villa Manzana was our favourite to date. The combination of comfort, stylishness, privacy and a view to die for made for a memorable week. What we liked best was sitting by the pool watching stunning sunsets, whilst sipping Turkish wine.

Christine & Duncan, September 2019

Simpson Travel pays great attention to detail to ensure that guests have a wonderful time and go well beyond what you would normally expect from a tour operator. A very impressive start to our holiday was that the car we hired was ready and waiting with the air conditioning running so we could just hop in and go without having to wait in the usual queue in a hot sweaty office. Service was equally efficient when we had to return the car. The rep's knowledge and recommendations on places to visit and where to eat was invaluable and greatly added to our enjoyment. The villa itself was superb and our only regret is that we had not booked it for longer!

Susan Coleman, July 2019

Villa is perfect with fantastic views. We have been to Turkey every year for 20 years and the first time visiting Bozburun and for us it is ideal – not touristy at all. Quiet and the people are so friendly. All in all a perfect holiday with wonderful food and surroundings.

Gill & Nick, June 2019

Views spectacular. Villa fantastic. Jessica (Simpson Travel rep) very helpful.

Jessica, June 2019

Lovely to come back to Villa Manzana after four years. The villa is as gorgeous as we remembered. Sublime views, wonderful sunsets, comfortable and well equipped.

Hazel, Simon & Hilary, May 2019

Reaching out from a forested coastline towards the nearby Aegean islands of Symi, Tilos and Rhodes, the Bozburun Peninsula is one of the most peaceful and picturesque corners of southwest Turkey.

Azure bays and sheltered coves, woodland, olive groves and mountains set the scene for a holiday fragranced with fields of lavender and wild thyme. Centred around the seaside town of Bozburun itself, famous for boat building, this discreetly luxurious destination is a protected conservation area, made for leisurely boat trips, sea-view restaurants and walks along the cliff tops.

To complete the scene, choose from our handpicked collection of Bozburun Peninsula villas and boutique hotels.
