Which area is the best to stay in Bodrum?

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Bodrum town centre, Gumbet is a neighbouring resort. Although British visitors have heavily influenced the atmosphere and lifestyle, it is cheap, has a long sandy beach and a variety of water sports to keep teenagers entertained.

Turgutreis is small yet busy enough to attract couples, families, and solo travellers. This resort has quite a few art galleries because it is a haven for inspiring artists.

There is one main beach in the centre but around the surrounding coastline are many small coves and bays should you want to get away from the crowds.

Yalikavak is popular with the ex-pat community. A long beach centres the resort that eventually leads up the hillside to pine tree forests. This resort is well known for the windmills in the centre and fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the boats for hire at the harbour. Get ready for an orange, vibrant sunset as well.

Bitez is another destination popular with British holidaymakers. Although not large when compared to places like Bodrum town centre, it still provides everything for an ideal break.

The local market on Wednesdays attracts everyone, while visitors first normally head to the historic 17th century Mustafa Pasa tower.


If you want upmarket and luxury, the best resort to head to is Golturkbuku. It is a favourite destination for the rich and famous of Turkish society. Hotels, beach clubs, and restaurants all focus on providing top class service no matter what the price.
