More information on this area:
The Turkish Aegean Coast Region
On the Bodrum Peninsula buildings are not permitted to be built more than 2 stories high, and there are no buildings higher than 3 stories in the whole Peninsula. This tends to make the area look particularly attractive. Most of the buildings are white washed cubes, similar to those in the Greek Islands. This is because this part of Turkey used to belong to Greece and some of the Greek Islands used to belong to Turkey. As you can imagine, there is a lot of history around the area.
History
Archaeological excavations have established that human habitation in the Yalikavak area began in around 2000BC, and there are ruins and artefacts from the Carian, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman eras. The historic sites such as Sandima, Pasanda (Geris), Kandiba and Termil (Dirmil/Gökçebel) attract visitors from all over the world. Yalikavak is famous for the numerous windmills found in the vicinity. The winds, that until recently turned the vanes of these working windmills, now fill the sails of boats and windsurfs. Another “typical” feature found in abundance here are domed water cisterns which, in the past, were used in times of drought and are now being adapted for artistic and cultural uses.
A 20 minute road journey will take you to Bodrum Centre with its historic castle which was built from 1402 onwards, by the Knights of St John as the Castle of St. Peter or Petronium. The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus is also located in Bodrum town.
Ferry trips to the Greek island of Kos can be made from Turgutreis and Bodrum
Further afield you can visit Ephesus, the largest archaeological site in the world, the stunning pools at Pamukkale, the royal rock tombs at Dalyan, and the temple of Apollo at Didim.
Yalikavak
Yalikavak, 18 km away from Bodrum centre on the North Western tip of the Bodrum Peninsula, has grown in size over recent years, but remains still very much a place where the locals welcome holidaymakers with open arms. The permanent inhabitants of Yalikavak number around 6,800 people. Yalikavak is becoming ever more popular as an alternative resort to Bodrum. The small harbour is surrounded by restaurants and bars, and while there is the occasional disco bar, the general atmosphere is quiet, unhurried and relaxed, yet further along the shoreline is a new sophisticated Marina.
Approaching Yalikavak from Bodrum you cannot help but notice the stunning panoramic view of Yalikavak Bay. This fertile coastal region is ideal for sailing and all water sports and attracts many foreign yachts to the Marina and old harbour that once sheltered mainly fishing boats.
FISHING & SEAFOOD
Yalikavak still supports a thriving fishing industry and the restaurants around the picturesque harbour and marina display a wide selection of fresh fish every day. The town is known for its excellent seafood restaurants - try Sait, you won't be disappointed.
RESTAURANTS
Yalikavak has a huge selection of restaurants to suit all tastes.
SHOPPING AND WEEKLY VENDOR'S MARKET
There are many shops in the traffic free centre and marina selling local wares and tourist items.
Every Thursday there is a colourful weekly market split in 2 halves. Clothes, textiles and traditional Turkish wares on one side, and the other with fruit, vegetables, great choices of olives, herbs and spices.
MARINA (Palmarina)
Just a few minutes walk along the shoreline from the centre of Yalikvak is the new Marina. The Marina is home to many large yachts and is visited by yachts from all over the world in summer. It has stylish shops and several restaurants and cafes, plus a seaside 2,500 seater Amphitheatre used for open air concerts and fashion shows during the summer months.
BEACHES
The main beach in Yalikavak is long and narrow and lined with a few restaurants. It is easy to sit back and not worry where your next drink or meal will come from! Yalikavak's beach is never busy and you won't be sandwiched in amongst sun loungers. Away from the harbour end of town, the quieter the beach becomes. Yalikavak is always said to be a little cooler in the summer than other parts of the region due to the gentle offshore breezes. Whereas Bodrum is hot, in all respects, in summer.
Yalikavak is renowned for its superb sunsets and unspoilt shoreline. Its sparkling clean sea is one of the few remaining abodes of the endangered “Monachus Monachus” Mediterranean seals and therefore a protected area. In 2002 Yalikavak Bay was awarded the "Blue Flag" for its clean waters.
Yalikavak has supermarkets, banks, ATMs, Taxi ranks, bus station, petrol stations etc.
A car is advised for this location but no absolutely necessary if you don't mind walking to the connecting road. There is a steep hill up to Marina View but Yalikavak is walkable and the dolmus (public transport minibus) runs along the access road below.
Guest Feedback for holidays at Marina View Apartment
Wonderful stay at Marina View | August-September 2022
My husband and I stayed at Marina View for 2 weeks from 30th August.
Annie and Ian were extremely helpful, efficient and responsive to any enquiries when we were booking our holiday.
The apartment was ideal, very clean, comfortable and airy, and the gem was the large terrace area with the most wonderful views of the sea and marina. The pool was great, well maintained and we had it to ourselves a few times during our stay.
We hired a car and explored the beautiful peninsula, visited Yalikavak's restaurants and markets. We would have struggled going up and down the steep hill to the apartment without it. Parking could be tricky at times.
Sara was available if we had any queries, always very helpful and friendly.
Thank you, we will definitely recommend your services to friends and family. We will definitely use Peninsula Villas again if we return.

We absolutely love Yali | August 2020
Annie, great service, above and beyond. I would highly recommend booking with you.
Sara was a great help too with the welcome basket, the water order and recommending and booking a lovely boat trip.
Our favourite beach and we wished we’d used it last time, is Dede, a few restaurants before Sofis.
No minimum spend, really good clean beach, water crystal clear, good snorkelling over the sea grass, very relaxed, good attentive service, good food for breakfast and lunches at reasonable prices. Great shade under the trees. On a whole day of milkshakes, frappes, water, fizzy drinks and lunch, we spent less than 300tl.
We absolutely love Yali

A View Like a Picture Postcard| August 2019
Marina View is a modern comfortable apartment with fantastic views and access to two great & relatively unused pools set into the hillside close by. A car makes sense as there is quite a hill to descend to get the harbour, but that kept us fit and the sea breeze kept it a bit cooler! The modern marina is worth a look round and there are plenty of restaurants around the old harbour.

EPIC| July 2019
This is the 2nd year running we booked an apartment holiday rental with Annie at Peninsula Villas Bodrum, this year we stayed at Marina View Apartment from late June into July and loved it. Inside, the apartment is modern, bright, clean and well equipped. Everything was as expected and Annie’s booking and payment service, as usual, was second to none. We would definitely recommend booking via Annie’s company and this apartment to anyone. The views from the balcony are amazing looking towards Palmarina, Yalikavak and the apartment itself is close to the centre. If we were to comment on negatives, the only one I would raise is the TV screen is 24” and I like to watch movies on holiday, but watching the view as Yalikavak turns from day to night, is a spectacular sight and beats the TV! There were 4 of us (2 young couples) and we hired a car, which you need as Marina View is up a hill. The bars, restaurants etc around Palmarina and in the old harbour are excellent and buzzing. Yalikavak, Bodrum is a great place for a couples or family holiday … we’ll be back

Excellent view and apartment in Yalikavak| September 2017
The apartment is called Marina View and it lives up to the name - we could have sat all day and night on the balcony looking out over Yalikavak. The whole experience from start to car transfer back to Bodrum (on time) was first class. Annie and her team are very professional and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend the company or apartment. The sitting area is very comfortable and if you can tear yourself away from the view there are busses from the bottom road that go into Yalikavak. There is a very steep hill to go down so car hire would be beneficial although we managed by getting (cheap) taxis back up the hill! All in all a lovely holiday.

Stunning Marina View Apartment | August 2016
Superbly, stunning apartment with spectacular views, this apartment lives up to its name. Myself, husband and son stayed in this gorgeous apartment for 10 days and were clearly not disappointment. The apartment is furnished and decorated to a high specification, art work by a local artist is a feature. Clean, bright and spacious with amazing pools, Sara our local representative was highly efficient and friend, met all our needs. Annie from Peninsula Villas ensure a personalised, first class, high quality service which is again met all our needs. Yalikavak is a beautiful town, lots of beaches, restaurants and Marina, plenty for everyone. A superb holiday was had, one which I would highly recommended to all.

Fantastic Aparment, Amazing Viewsand Great Location| August 2014
I travelled to Yalikavak and stayed at Marina View with my boyfriend and 2 sisters. The booking process couldn't have been made easier by Annie and Ian. Communication was great throughout and the pre-departure information that was given was most useful. On arrival in Yalikavak we met with the local contact to be given the apartment keys - Sara was again most helpful and friendly. The apartment itself was clean, tidy and perfect for our needs. The view was fantastic - right out across the marina! We spent a lot of time by the shared pool and made friends with many the people there - most of them Turkish and many also on their holidays. The apartment is located about a 10 minute drive from the centre of Yalikavak and is even closer to many amenities such as supermarkets etc. I would definitely recommend this apartment and using this company. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back to Marina View.

The Best Views on the Bodrum Peninsula | July 2014
My wife and I stayed here for a week in July. The apartment has the most fantastic view of Yalikavak. We spent hours on the spacious balcony admiring the view which includes the new marina and also the Greek Islands . The apartment is clean, beautifully furnished and has all that you need for a comfortable stay. We were nice and close to Yalikavak and it's wonderful restaurants but also centrally located to explore the entire Bodrum peninsula. I would undoubtedly be looking to return next year !
