Stunning private holiday villa in Gumusluk, Bodrum Peninsula Turkey 

We were recommended Peninsula Villas by a friend of ours whose family have used them for several years and always found them to be excellent. The villa we hired (Roya) was lovely - fantastic view, super clean, stylish with its own pool and a second bigger pool that was shared. Great air conditioning. Good hand over arrangements for getting into the villa and an efficient and professional administration system for booking. Would definitely recommend them.

Dear Annie, Pls find below my feedback; 

 

We have returned from a good vacation and enjoyed it! 

First of all, the villa was very nice with a great pool and fantastic view from the top. 

All facilities were within easy reach which was very much appreciated. 

Furthermore, I would like to point out that the service of the owner's representative Mrs. Hürdem was excellent. We had good communication. She was very helpful and attentive 24/7 during the whole vacation. 

 

Location is perfect, close to the supermarket and bakery store. 

Gumusluk bay is only 5 minutes away by car, where you can enjoy the beauty of the area, which is also recommended for sightseeing. And if you like to eat fish, this is for sure the place to be... 

A car is a must for this villa in my opinion as the location is quite high and using a taxi (every day) will probably not work. 

And because it's high you have a nice breeze, which is fantastic during the hot summer days. 

 

Yalikavak is also one of the best areas with the nice beach clubs during the day and for going out in the evening for food/lounge etc. 

 

I will for sure consider contacting you again for our next holiday and recommend it to friends/family. 

Thank you for the good care and perfect service.

Firstly, a massive shout out to Annie and the wonderful Peninsula Villas Bodrum. Having been let down by the Cyprus villa company, we contacted her to check if they were open for business. Thankfully they were and we chose Villa Roya, a fabulous property in a gorgeous location. Villa Roya is of a high standard, very clean, extremely well kitted-out, including excellent kitchen utilities and had everything you needed for a peaceful relaxing holiday. We particularly liked the pool and spent ages simply standing in it looking out at the views below. We also really enjoyed evening time as the sun set and the lights of the properties on the surrounding hills started to come on. Another favourite spot was the indoor / outdoor dining room, lovely for relaxed dinners and a nice bottle of red. 

 

Having taken 3 weeks off to escape the madness of work and all things Covid we were delighted we chose Villa Roya and Gumusluk. Lazy days reading and relaxing, supermarket runs for supplies, the odd trip to one of the neighbouring villages for breakfast and nights in watching DVDs. All in all just what was needed to recharge the batteries and help us face work on our return! 

 

With its lovely restaurants dotted around the beautiful waterside setting, Gumusluk Bay has become one of my favourite places. We even found Gumusluk village on this trip, whilst it is a ‘local’ village it had a real sense of welcoming tourists. 

 

We can’t praise Annie and her company highly enough. Their customer first approach has always been evident, but this was overlaid with an understanding of the challenges travellers are facing in these uncertain times. Nothing is too much trouble and no question goes unanswered. The booking process is simple, transfers and car hire are arranged, insightful pre-arrival literature which includes restaurant recommendations, basically all you do is turn up and relax. Should there be any local issues, these are fixed quickly and efficiently by the property managers. Finally, thanks to Hurdem who kept us updated on the roadworks that coincided with our visit. We will be returning in 2021.

As always booking online can sometimes be difficult with photos etc not concentrating on the actual place and surroundings, with pleasure not so in this case. The representation on peninsulavillasbodrum.com was spot on and the place was great, a stocked pantry, great local staff and attention to detail set this apart. The locals gardener, cleaning, pool service and manager Hurdem, couldn’t have been more helpful. A rare occasion when you book something and it actually exceeds your expectations Thanks

We have just got back from a 5 night stay and it was out of this world! The villa is stunning! We had everything we needed in the villa, from the pool to the amazing view, it had it all. The nearby village of Gumusluck is right on the doorstep and has some beautiful restaurant and bars and little market stalls. The larger town of Bodrum is only a short drive away and is great for a bit more of a lively night out and opportunity to wonder round more market stalls and shops. We would happily return in a heartbeat for another fabulous holiday! You couldn't go wrong staying here!

I have recently returned from my stay in Villa Roya with a party of 6. The villa itself is exactly as you see in the pictures, if not even more amazing. The villa was immaculate on our arrival and the owners had even provided us with some bread and water for our arrival which was greatly appreciated. All rooms are modern and everything in the villa is brand new. The kitchen was stocked with every utensil we could have needed Having a private pool with sun loungers was a real bonus as well. The owners' attention to detail was evident and really made a difference. The location of the villa is fantastic. We hired a car for the week and found we were easily able to drive to Bodrum and Yalikavak. We would all definitely recommend visiting Limon restaurant which is walking distance from the villa. The food and drinks were fantastic, and the view of the sunset was spectacular. Hurdem the villa manager was most helpful when we needed to contact her. I booked through Peninsula Villa Care (as I have done previously) and once again I cannot fault this company. The booking process is simple, and well organised. I fully trust Annie in terms of advice and recommendations. We booked our hire car through the company and this again was so simple, and also so reasonably priced. I would without doubt recommend Villa Roya and Peninsula Villa Care to anyone wanting a laid back yet luxury holiday for a reasonable price. I am sure we will be returning to the Peninsula soon enough!
