cucukhamin did you not just earlier reply to another message saying that Kas was prettier than Kalkan?  If you don't even know where the old town in Kalkan is how can you say Kas is prettier?  The Swan apartments are approx 300 - 400 metres from the old town.

Hi there, the "Old Town" is the area just behind the harbour restaurants. It is a maze of small streets that run up the hill towards the D400 Kas road and parallel to the harbour wall. Many have beautiful little balconies with bougainvillea flowering all over them. It really is very beautiful and has a wonderful array of small, personal eateries, intimate bars and unique shops. If you like Kas, the old town of Kalkan is much more authentic and personal in comparison, we truly love it!

Wheyyy Yes I did Charlie.
Try to visit Kas thats equally as pretty if not nicer than Kalkan.
That was what I ahd written.
But I only spent the weekend there. And a weekend in Kas and thought Kas was prettier. (just my humble opinion) are we not allowed that.
My sincere apologies : I have given myself a slap.
And no I dont know where the Old Town is.  :(
