Physkos is a small yet delightful development of villas with private pools and comfortable apartments situated within easy walking distance of the bay and coastal village of Turunç. Though well served, Turunç retains an authentic Turkish character and charm – and with little traffic and a real village atmosphere, it makes for a wonderfully secluded destination.
The beach has been given a Blue Riband award for the cleanliness of its water and sand, and the main street, which is pedestrianised, has a good selection of shops. The wide range of waterside restaurants and bars also makes for a pleasant and relaxed nightlife.
The large, bustling resort of Marmaris can be reached by water-taxi during the main season (which takes 45 minutes) or by car throughout the year (30 minutes). It offers bars, shops and restaurants to cater for most tastes. In particular, the local shops offer the best prices for leather goods and jewellery anywhere in Turkey. The restaurants are renowned for their quality cuisine, which varies from traditional Turkish to contemporary European.
Physkos is part of the Holiday Property Bond portfolio offering exclusive access to over 1,400 properties to its 41,000 investors ("Bondholders"). If you are not already a Bondholder and would like further details please see below.
Take the kids to Turunç
While young couples will love the village of Turunç, it really is the ideal place for families with young children. There isn't much traffic here, so the little ones have more freedom when it comes to exploring the village. Plus, the beach here is fantastic too – swimming is safe and easy thanks to the shallow rake, and there are plenty of watersports to try, such as water-skiing and scuba diving, so even the older kids will have something to do.
Grab at a bargain on market day
It's well worth heading to Turunç on a Monday, as that's when the market is. You can purchase a wide range of goods here, from fresh produce to designer clothing and watches – be careful though, there are a lot of fakes around.
We recommend trying your hand a bartering at the markets, as it's an acceptable practice here in Turkey. Plus, it will make you feel all the more satisfied when you get something you want for a real bargain!
See one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World
Turkey has an interesting history – the Anatolian civilisation is particularly fascinating and you can see its remains throughout the country. The most famous remain is Ephesus, a World Heritage Site which is famously home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World: the Temple of Artemis.
You'll need to get up early and spend a whole day at Ephesus in order to see everything. Plus, the site looks amazing at sunset.
