Villas in Bodrum

Fantastic holiday and great fun to return to Yalıkavak. Villa owner (Janet) was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Happy to recommend the villa and location.

We arrived for a 3 week holiday in Gumusluk, having driven for 2 days to get there from Ankara, it was everything and more than we expected. I cannot recommend this house and holiday location more. We had a fabulous time. A car was required to visit further afield but there is a beach and restaurants nearby. The house itself is well laid out with living quarters upstairs and bedrooms downstairs. Everything was immaculate when we arrived and there were brooms and a hoover etc available for use also. The Hammam was a favourite for all of us, coming out of the pool (which by the way was heated naturally and was more than adequate at this time of year) and into a warm authentic steam room was an added bonus. Huseyin (the house manager) was available for any needs we had and more throughout the holiday, a true gent. I could go on but won't, overall a truly fantastic and memorable time was had by all, Thanks Fiona😁

My family and I have just returned from a lovely 2 week stay at Villa Jasmine. The villa is very comfortable and has everything you need, so it really is a home from home. My whole family particularly enjoyed the lovely pool, which never seems to be crowded. We have visited Yalikavak before and it was lovely to return, as it is a charming seaside town. Dawn and Norman from the villa management company were also very helpful and gave us some good tips with regard to eating out. I would have no hesitation in recommending Villa Jasmine, it really is a wonderful villa in a beautiful location.

We had a wonderful holiday staying at the villa Jasmine. There were 7 of us but plenty of space in the bedrooms, and the communal areas. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed using the pool. The villa was well equipped with everything we needed and the kids loved the PS2 which gave the adults a chance to relax. A short walk into the village and with shops including baker, greengrocer and butcher only round the corner it couldn’t have been better situated. The rooftop terrace allowed us to dry our clothes easily - important with a 1 year old!! Can’t fault the property and the owner was easy to deal with and answered all our questions promptly, we were met on arrival and again at departure so no hassle with keys. Would visit again with no reservations.

We have just had the most wonderful week at this lovely house. It has a lot of character, is very nicely designed inside - simple and unfussy - and the garden and pool areas are really pretty and well-maintained. The views from the upper floor, particularly the dining area, are amazing. I think at one point the house was one of just three or four in the neighbourhood but there has been a lot of building in the bay over the last few years (there still is but thankfully you can't hear it from the house and pool) and the house is now surrounded by modern developments and the garden and pool a little overlooked. We were lucky as it was early in the season and the surrounding properties were all empty but as the weeks go on it will get busier and less tranquil. There was a problem with the pool when we arrived but this was dealt with quickly and both Husseyin (who looks after the house) and Fiona the owner were attentive to and reasonable about the problem and it was happily resolved. The roads in the area are not brilliant and our hire car got quite a bad - and expensive - scratch so be aware and take care when driving. The house has everything you need but the kitchen is quite basic so bring kit if you're planning any gourmet cooking (we weren't). We donated a cafitiere to the house as there wasn't one. Husseyin is friendly and helpful and has really good English, we were always pleased to see him when he came for the daily pool check and he was there to welcome us and to see us off. We are a same-sex couple and were made to feel entirely welcome and comfortable - there was no weirdness from anyone we met in the area. In fact we didn't really feel 'noticed' at all and this really helped us relax and unwind. It's a ten minute walk downhill from the house to the lovely beach at Koyunbana Bay and the little beachside restaurant there is family owned and very friendly. It's a 5 minute drive to the nearest Migros supermarket and there is a Macro at Yalikavak Marina - about 5km away - along with coffee shops and high end stores. Recommend the Teras restaurant on the roof the Migros if you want to eat without having to drive (great daytime views) and also Limon on the way to Gumsluk - lovely hillside setting - but you'd need to book as it's very popular. We came away refreshed and revitalised from our holiday at the house and we will definitely be booking again.

We stayed at Nicola's Little Villa as a family. The house is clean, big and great. We liked it. House is close to sea and markets and bakery only 3-4 minutes. Sea was fantastic :) House has got everything. I especially recommend it to families. Thank you Nicola for your kind hospitality. Best Wishes,
