TURKEY is still an attractive destination for investors with apartments available at the latest eco-friendly development from well under BD40,000.

The oddly named Meltemi Flipflops is located in the picturesque fishing village of Gulluk, Bodrum, and its innovative designs were praised at the International Property awards.

The apartments have been created to minimise the need for air conditioning as the angle where they are built means the natural Meltemi breeze can flow through.

And the whole development has impressive green credentials with airtight insulation, optimised glazing for natural light, water membrane applied to the sloping concrete on the roofs, a facility for composting organic waste and extensive natural planting.

All building materials and furniture have been locally sourced as was the labour and contractors and the site's owners are working with the nearby community to encourage recycling.

There are a variety of properties available at Flipflops Meltemi from one, two and three-bedroom apartments to penthouses.

Facilities include a fully equipped gymnasium/fitness centre, a cafe/restaurant, a tennis court, a beach volleyball court, two large swimming pools, two children's pools, a barbeque area, a launderette, landscaped gardens and an on-site concierge to assist you wherever possible and to watch over your apartment when you are not there.

Prices at Meltemi Flipflops start at around BD35,000 for a one-bedroom first floor property.
