Home description
Lovely, well equipped 2 Double Bedroom Apartment sleeping 4 comfortably. Fabulous sea views, over-looking the Bay in the much desired, prestigious resort of Bitez. Just a short stroll from the beach and promenade, this is an ideal location for a romantic "get away" or family holiday alike. The Apartment commands stunning views over the azure Aegean waters of Bitez Bay and its small harbour, both from the balcony and Master Bedroom. The nearest shop is just a short walk (1 or 2 minutes) away, and beyond that is the most beautiful beach on the Bodrum Peninsula. Here, besides the hospitable bars and restaurants you will find all manner of water sports, diving and boat trips available. Bitez (or Ağaclı - meaning 'full of trees')is one of the main citrus growing areas on the peninsula and is abundant with mandarin and olive groves. The beach here is one of the cleanest on the peninsula and the restaurants and cafes that line the promenade offer turkish, oriental and international cuisine. Each restaurant offers the free use of sunbeds on the shoreline. There are no noisy bars or night clubs here so you can be assured of a relaxing meal or stroll. Bitez village is a 15 minute walk inland and remains totally unspoilt by tourism.

The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Bitez is 7km from Bodrum, the area is known for water sports and its favourable winds making it the ideal beach destination. The beach is sandy with plenty of free sun-loungers and there are dinghies and catamarans for hire (with optional tuition if required). Away from the sandy beaches there are mandarin groves and a traditional way of life that has remained unchanged for generations. The local villagers are friendly and welcoming to tourists and the area is fast becoming the next exceptional family holiday destination. With fabulous weather and a friendly and welcoming local life Bitez is the ideal destination for a family holiday with something for everyone from water sports and beach pursuits to walks in the groves and exploring the villages.
The Turkish countryside offers some inspiring walks, such as the Lycian Way, five hundred kilometres of ancient footpaths, or the miles of scenic walkways around Bitez, both coastal and inland.
Bodrum was the city of Halikarnassos in ancient times, an important port in the centre of the old world. Modern Bodrum is to Turkey, what Cannes is to the South of France. It is everything and anything you want it to be, historic, interesting, relaxing and lively.
An imposing Crusader Castle overlooks the harbor and the International Marina. When you have had enough of the many harbor-side bars, restaurants and historical sights, there is still a whole peninsula to explore. Mountains and green valleys, traditional villages and isolated beaches, all within view of the warm clear waters of the Aegean Sea.
A twice weekly market attracts people from the villages around the Bodrum, adding another dimension to this popular resort. There are also many local markets in the villages around the peninsula including those at Yalikavak (10 mins drive from Gumusluk) and Turgutries (15 mins drive from Gumusluk).
It is an all year round place, which makes it so special for the out of season visitor.
Bodrum / Bitez area
Things to Do In and Around Bodrum / Bitez Village: • Halicarnassos Mausoleum is Bodrum's oldest and most significant antiquity, given it's status as one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
• The Castle of St. Peter is without a doubt the most prominent feature of the Bodrum landscape dating back to the medieval knights of St. John. Today the Castle is home to the Underwater Museum, exhibits include an ancient shipwreck and various other antiquities found in the area.
• Shopping lovers are spoilt for choice with Bodrum's many weekly markets. In the main resort, there is a fabric and clothing market on Tuesdays and food markets on both Thursdays and Fridays. Gümüşlük and Ortakent both hold markets on a Wednesday, Yalıkavak on a Thursday, Bitez on a Friday and Gümbet on Sundays. Turgutreis also has a Saturday market.
• Why not take advantage of Bodrum's alluring coast line by going on a daily boat trip, stopping off at secluded coves for a spot of sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling. Alternatively, in the area's maritime tradition, charter a yacht from one of the many locally-based agencies.
• Take in stunning coastal scenery, lush woodlands and historic ruins that otherwise would be missed, by Exploring the Bodrum Peninsula on foot using one of the established Walking Trails.
• The Greek island of Kos is within easy reach of Bodrum by boat and is a popular day-trip with visitors to the resort. Services run daily throughout the summer months, departing at around 9am and returning in the late afternoon/early evening. The journey lasts approximately 50 minutes.
• Bodrum's prime position along the Aegean coast is ideal for Diving. There are numerous dive sites in the vicinity of the resort and the Peninsula. You can hope to see lobster, crayfish, barracuda, octopus, sea bass and shoals of sea bream to name but a few.
Also Within Reach: - Pamukkale: Literally translated as "cotton castle", the amazing calcium rock formations should be seen to be believed. While in the area, it is worth visiting the nearby ancient city of Aphrodisias. - Ephesus: This amazing ancient city can be reached in about 2 and a half hours by road making it easily accessible for a day trip.
