Kestel
A narrow strip between the sea and the Taurus mountains: shore on one side, banana greenhouses and the mountains on the other. Six kilometres to the centre, a few minutes to Mahmutlar's high street. Kestel's value is in its quiet and its position — apartments within walking distance of the water still sell below central prices per square metre. The strip is narrow, so supply is limited, and that is what holds the price over time.
About Kestel
A narrow strip between the sea and the Taurus Mountains: the coast on one side, banana greenhouses and hillsides on the other. Kestel lies between the centre of Alanya and Mahmutlar, and you can reach the amenities of both within minutes.
Daily life
Quiet on a neighbourhood scale, yet complete: a supermarket, a bakery, a pharmacy, cafés and streets leading down to the beach. The proximity of the university campus creates year-round activity in the neighbourhood and a steady demand from tenants.
Getting around
Approximately 8 km to the centre of Alanya and approximately 4 km to Mahmutlar, with easy access to both by dolmuş. Gazipaşa Airport is approximately 35 km away, Antalya Airport approximately 130 km.
Housing stock
On the seaward side, complexes with swimming pools and communal facilities; on the hillside, apartments and villas with views. As the coastal strip is narrow, beachfront stock is limited, which means that developments on the main road keep their views for a long time.
Who it suits
For the buyer who wants to be close to the centre but without the crowds of the centre. Suitable both for summer use and for living all year round; for letting, the proximity to the university and to the centre means two separate sources of demand.

Frequently asked about Kestel
The questions buyers ask most often about Kestel, answered.
Kestel is closer to the centre and quieter; Mahmutlar is busier, offers more choice and has a livelier social life. If you plan to go into the centre often, choose Kestel; if you want everything on your doorstep, choose Mahmutlar.
Only a limited number. Because the coastal strip is narrow, seafront stock is scarce and changes hands quickly; in the projects along the road, on the other hand, the view is generally preserved for a long time.
Year-round tenant demand. Since the academic calendar runs independently of the summer season, the chances of finding a tenant outside the tourism months also increase.
It depends on the facilities of the complex. A pool, security, a generator and well-kept gardens push the fee up; in small, simple complexes the costs are noticeably lower. At the offer stage, it is worth asking for the maintenance fee history of the past year.
