Onyx 5 Villa | Bodrum Turkey

Turquoise Holiday Village is a luxury resort located on the Bodrum peninsula in southwest Turkey, one of the country's best known and upmarket holiday destinations. This region, favoured not only by European visitors but also by the rich and famous from within Turkey itself, has a rich history and a diverse and cosmopolitan culture. Turquoise offers guests a huge range of diversions with which to fill their day.

Whether it is simply soaking up the sun, enjoying quality food and drink at the excellent clubhouse, running off some calories on the tennis court or in the gym or simply spending time at any of the eight swimming pools, Turquoise has it all. Locally you have several small beaches with amenities, for example MyBeach and Sunset Beach are definately worth a look, as well as the facilities of nearby Flamingo Country Club and Royal Heights Resorts (both open to you during your stay). Offering the discerning traveller an idylic slice of Turkey far removed from the pulsating bars and noise of some other local resorts, you can very quickly see why Turquoise has become a firm favourite in this part of Turkey.

With it's own garden and pool, Onyx 5 is a great option for families looking for a something more than an apartment on this fantastic holiday resort. Furnished in a contempory style, Onyx 5 comprises of 3 bedrooms made up as a double, 3 singles and a sofa bed, open plan lounge and dining area, fully equipped kitchen, and extensive outdoor grounds which include terraces, a large patio and of course, a private pool.

The Bodrum peninsula is a wonderful place to visit for both long and short stays. Whether you enjoy walking, nature, swimming, bird watching, sunbathing, dining out or golf, everyone will find something they love about this region. For example, golfers can now enjoy a round of golf at the newly open Vita Park Golf Resort at Tuzla alongside the 9-hole course just outside of Bodrum Town. The historic and cosmopolitan harbour town of Bodrum, with its imposing Crusader era castle and bustling port are great places to explore for a day or longer. There are also many shops, bars and restaurants to wine and dine at and the huge indoor market to haggle in.

Milas, Bodrum Town and Turgutreis all have the most amazing market days. Moving further afield, chilled out water front restaurants can be found in little tucked away harbours dotted around the peninsula where you can choose freshly caught seafood and relax over a selection of meze and a bottle of wine or a cold glass of beer. Perhaps hire a gullet and crew for a day and enjoy a swim in secluded clear water coves or perhaps a day at the Aqua Park or Dolphin Park. Whatever your choice, getting around the peninsula is a breeze thanks to the relatively good roads and the superb bus (dolmus) links from Bodrum Town.
