The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Gümüslük Gümüs is the Turkish word for Silver. Thanks to strictly enforced building prohibitions, the sea front has kept its original appearance and photogenic fishing village charm. This is the ideal spot for peace and quiet, with the added advantage of many excellent fish restaurants along the small waterfront, where you can sit comfortably next to the gently lapping sea.
Yalikavak Yalikavak is small, but busy village with a harbour where visiting yachts and fishing boats moor cheerfully together. The restaurants in the town centre and on the sea front are popular with locals and tourists alike. Here is little beach, but it's more comfortable to sit in a waterside cafe and watch the world go by. Several buildings have been tastefully restored in the town; a former water cistern has become a small art gallery and a former olive oil press is converted into a kilim showroom where visitors are welcome.
Bodrum The heart of the town is around the harbor, where shops, bars and restaurants jostle together in the narrow streets under the shadow of the St. Peter Castle . The main artery is Cumhurriyet Caddesi (Republic Street), much better known as bar street.

Guestbook
"Excellent property in a nice peaceful location a few miles away from Yalikavak and Gumusluk. Rooms were clean and were in full working order. The shared pool is huge. Definitely recommend a car as it is a short driving distance away to the shops/restaurants of Gumusluk and Yalikavak. If you want a nice relaxing holiday with good value for money this property is perfect." - Steven from Manchester
Royal Blue was a wonderful place to stay. The apartment itself is brand spanking new, contained all we needed and the view over the hills across to the ocean was spectacular particularly at sunset. There is lots of living space within the apartment and the pool in the complex was a welcome relief from the afternoon heat. Hilly, John & Avina made us very welcome and were very helpful in providing information about the area and in organising our airport transfer. It's a long steep walk up the hill to the apartment from the bus stop and a car would have been convenient - Jenni (Port Fairy, QU, Australia)
This was a great apartment with unbelievable views. Local transport to Bodrum and Gumusluck is frequent and affordable. Although the local transport to Yalikavak is not as frequent it is worth the wait. The food here is amazing and the locals are exceptionally friendly and hospitable. Be sure not to miss the sunset from your balcony as it sets over the distant Greek islands...amazing! - Raychel and Derek (Newcastle)
It was a last minute booking, and we got exceptional service and help. Friendly contacts both in the UK and Turkey, and no 'hidden extras' despite the fact that we also needed baby facilities. The apartment was clean, modern and spacious, beautifully furnished and peaceful. We really enjoyed the fantastic sunsets from the balcony - better than any picture postcards! - Joanne (UK)
