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. 
 
GUMUSLUK BAY 
Whether you are having your holiday in one of the resorts on Bodrum Peninsula or in Gumusluk, reward yourself with a day at Gumusluk Bay. Gumusluk is a small village at the tip of the Bodrum Peninsula about 30 minutes drive from Bodrum itself. This peaceful traffic free village seems a world away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, away from the well-trodden tourist track in central Bodrum. The whitewashed houses are covered with colorful flowers. 
 
Head for the two narrow sandy beaches and take your swimming gear, each curling around its own bay and separated by a beautiful rounded islet. At Gumusluk harbour visitors can explore Rabbit Island walking through history along an ancient causeway, enjoying the sun, refreshing yourself in the crystal clear sea are only some examples of what Gumusluk Bay offers visitors. Once you've had enough of sunbathing and swimming in the calm, clear waters, sip a local beer or chilled wine at a friendly fish restaurant or cafe along the waterfront, for which the village is famous and where you can sometimes choose your own fish straight from the fisherman's crate or wade through the shallows to the offshore Rabbit Island. 
 
Gumusluk village, is about 25 km from Bodrum and 1km from Gumusluk bay. In the village you will find the post office and local shops including hardware stores, pharmacies, butchers, plumbers, electricians, and carpenters that line the two sides of the street. Weekly market day is Wednesday in Gumusluk. 
 
Yalikavak 
Yalikavak's town centre has retained its traditional Turkish charm. With its simple but stylish laid back atmosphere and friendly welcoming locals, this is its main attraction and the reason why holidaymakers return to the area year after year. Along the coast road en-route from the villa to Yalikavak you will pass some of the best fish restaurants on the Bodrum Peninsula huddled together in their own 'fish restaurant village' area. A couple of minutes further on takes you to Yalikavak's fashionable new Marina with super yachts, gullets and sail boats visiting from all around the world. The Marina is home to smart shops, bars, restaurants and a beach club which hosts open air concerts during high summer.  
 
The centre of Bodrum is less than 20 minutes from here with its own smart Marina, town centre shops and, of course, the famous Bodrum Castle. Bodrum town has fabulous shops in the Marina area and also along the narrow streets of the old town near the Castle. At night, the Marina has open air live music starting at 10pm until the early hours nightly during high summer. 
 
Yalikavak has supermarkets, banks, ATMs, Taxi ranks, bus station, petrol stations etc. 
 
A car is advised for this location. The dolmus (public transport minibus) runs along the main road from Gumusluk to Yalikavak and Turgutreis. 
 
Distances: Bodrum town is 20/25 mins; Yalikavak is 15 mins drive, Gumusluk fishing village and harbour restaurants are less than a 5 minute drive 
 
Turgutreis is 15 mins drive : Nearest supermarket, Migros Koyunbaba, 2 km a 5 min drive away, an open all hours corner shop is close by to Aqua - these are called Bakal in Turkish. 
 

Guest Feedback for holidays at Aqua (previously Villa Omayma) 

The villa is fabulous, we had a great time| July/August 2018 
I just wanted to drop you a line to say a SINCERE THANK YOU for all your kind help. The villa is fabulous and we had a great time there. 
Hurdem could not have been move helpful. She was attentive, efficient and very very helpful. You were very kind and patient with all the stages of the booking process, adding the personal touch made it so much easier, Annie. Also thanks for offering to help in case the accomodation in Yahsi didn't materialise! 
Once again- MANY THANKS 
Date of Stay: Jul/Aug 2018

Thoroughly Enjoyed our stay at Omayma| August 2017 
Dear Annie  
Please inform Villa Omaymas owners that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at their property. The villa is located in a fabulous location and we never tired of the view from both the garden and veranda. We had the pool to ourselves for the duration of our stay too. We would love to stay there again and would highly recommend the villa to others. My only criticism would be twin beds would be more beneficial than bunk beds particularly with a teenager in tow. 
 
Also Hurdem was brilliant and when we did need her she was on hand straight away and the cleaning was to a high standard too. 
Thanks Annie for ensuring our holiday was wonderful from start to finish and hopefully we will be booking again next year or the year after. 
Date of Stay: Aug 2017
