Turkey Discussion Forum

Discussions regarding holidays in Turkey.
We went the last week in September this year and a fantastic time. I haven't written my review yet, but will try to do it this week.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

We found the hotel to be fantastic. Its right on the beach, has loads of bars (one being 24 hours :cheers) , and we really enjoyed the food (hence the diet when we got back!). From our room, which was more than adequate, we had a gorgeous view over the bay. Also everwhere was really clean and the staff were always friendly.

If you have any questions, please ask.

We found the food to be really good. I enjoyed salad and bread if there wasn't anything else I fancied, but my hubbie is a bit more adventurous than me and always tried whatever was on offer lol!!!! Also, he always wore 3/4 length trousers in the evening, as did most of the men there, and no one said anythng.

This hotel is great, and i am sure you will have a fantastic time. Enjoy :cheers

Is this hotel AI for 24 hours a day? Or do they stop drinks etc at a certain time?

kedi - we went to wow bodrum in 2007 and 2006 and the bars usually closed at 1am then the nightclub closed at around 3am. I think you could get drinks served until 2am......thinking about it i think the one in the lobby is open 24 hours...yes it was because i was drinking chocolate monkeys at 4am one morning.....ouch! :rofl

Although I haven't stayed at WOW I have been on the beach and it is very nice, sandy with clear water, it is the nicest part of Gumbet beach.

Hi

Can anyone tell my where is the best place we can book our excursions from, is it cheaper to book the excursions in Gumbet town, or at the resort :cheers

Also can anyone recommend an excursion to go on with my wife & 2 kids age 10 & 5 :cheers

Look forward to hearing anyone every soon ;)

It is best to book your trips in the town rather than the hotel as you will get them much cheaper.

A good day out is a boat trip, you can book them along the beach. You spend a day on the boat stopping off at four or five places and lunch is included. It costs about £10.

There are mozzies in Gumbet so if you do get bitten get some repellent. I have found the best is Johnson's Off, you can buy it from the supermarkets and pharmacies out there, also spray yourself in lemon cologne and that should keep them away.
