The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
North of Bodrum, the Aegean coast is one long string of beaches and ancient ruins, most of them easily accessible via the fast coastal road. The ancient ruins of Ephesus are well worth a visit. The best preserved classical city in the Mediterranean, Ephesus will give you a feel for what life was like in Roman times. Experience the quiet beauty of Lake Bafa or take a dip in the secluded coves of Dilek National Park.
To the east of Bodrum Peninsula is the Turquoise coast a succession of dramatic views and dramatically sited ancient ruins. Drive over the mountains to Dalyan and visit the Lycian rock tombs and the ruins of ancient Kaunos. Nearby Iztuzu Beach is one of the last remaining nesting sites of the loggerhead turtle.
The greek island of Kos is only 4 miles away by ferry from either Bodrum or Turgutreis.
Bodrum / Gumusluk Village area
The villa is perfectly situated in a beautiful area close to the pretty fishing village of Gumusluk. The village, with its beach and renowned seafood restaurants is easily accessible, within 15 minutes walking distance or 2 minutes by car. Gumusluk is a protected area, being built on the ancient city of Myndos. The ruins and mosaics are still visible in the shallow waters around Rabbit Island. The bay is ideal for snorkeling and there are other watersports facilities available from the beach. There are many pleasant walks in the local countryside. Climb the headlands around Gumusluk bay or walk up to Karakaya behind the villa.
Whilst offering the opportunity for a quiet relaxing holiday, the villa also gives easy access to the sights and attractions of the Bodrum Peninsula. Other villages on the Peninsula such as Turgutreis and Yalikavak, with their weekly markets, are easily accessible via Dolmus or car. Bodrum, with its imposing castle and harbour, is a 20 minute drive away and has all the facilities of a larger holiday resort. Even so, with its sugar-cube houses, it has retained its original charm. It has a smart new marina, sophisticated restaurants and some very expensive boats! The excellent museum of underwater archaeology at the castle of St Peter is a must. Around the peninsula there are beautiful villages, coves and beaches that have been barely touched by tourism. If you don't fancy driving, take a boat trip for a day and visit some of the bays and islands dotted around the peninsula. Day trips are readily available from Bodrum and Turgutreis.
For eating out there is no need to travel further than the village of Gumusluk. There are a number of excellent seafood restaurants alongside the harbour and beach.
Branches of the main Turkish banks can be found alongside the main road into Bodrum. ATM's can be found outside the banks, in Bodrum itself and in Turgutreis. Branches of the larger supermarket chains, such as Migros and Kipa can be found on the road into Bodrum and in Turgutreis which is a 15 minute drive away. The local mini-markets are very good, selling basics and plentiful fresh locally produced fruit and vegetables.
