Bitez Holidays

Bitez for last minute breaks

This resort, on the Turkish coast, offers everything you could want in the way of relaxing family holidays or all inclusive holidays. Just an hour from Bodrum airport, it boasts long, golden beaches, a spectacular countryside and a “get away from it all” village atmosphere.
Bitez is tailor made for family breaks too. Quiet and picturesque, with a beautiful backdrop of mountains and mandarin groves, it is easy to lose yourself along the beaches. At the same time, the bustling resorts of Bodrum and Gumbet are a short distance away, offering all you could need in the way of nightlife.

Family holidays in Bitez

The peaceful seclusion makes this a perfect resort to book last minute breaks for families. In the evenings, the town’s vibrant bars have an eclectic mix of live music and disco beats on offer, but it is far from rowdy. Party animals will prefer to be nearer Bodrum, but this leaves Bitez’s beaches open to those wanting to enjoy the mountain scenery and crystal blue seas of the Aegean in a more relaxed fashion.
Most last minute breaks are booked as self catering holidays in apartment complexes, but there are also several hotels offering all inclusive holidays in 4 star accommodation. Some are geared specifically towards adults, and have private beaches, meaning couples without children can book last minute breaks in comfort, while those with kids won’t be frowned upon!
Last minute breaks can be booked here all year round, and tariffs are very reasonable, especially outside the summer months.

Things to do on holidays to Bitez

Bitez is renowned for its range of water sports, and is a well-known windsurfing spot. You can also try diving, waterskiing or just swimming from the numerous secluded inlets that dot the coastline. The local dolmus (bus) service is an excellent way to explore them all. For a treat, take a cruise on a traditional Turkish gulet, or sailing boat.
Last minute breaks here aren’t complete without hiking up to the ancient Crusader fortress, which dominates its position over the bay. The old town makes a pleasant afternoon’s walk, if you tire of the beaches, and there are numerous photo opportunities. 
The hillsides are peppered with pretty white cottages, offering numerous walks. In summer, the area is festooned with wild flowers and vibrant, cascading gardens. In the old town you will find bustling market places and a narrow maze of streets leading to museums and ancient monuments, while the picturesque marina is lined with shops, bars and restaurants.
We at Future Travel thoroughly recommend booking family holidays or last minute breaks in Bitez for anyone seeking a holiday with plenty to do – while being peaceful at the same time.
