The Tropicana Beach is located on Gumbet Bay, the most popular bay on the Bodrum Peninsula. We are on the Bodrum side of the bay right under the windmills and by the beach. There is a 24 hour public transportation stop in front of the hotel from which you can travel the 10 to 15 minutes to central Bodrum. The property was designed and is owned and run by a local family. The centre of Gumbet is approximately 300 metres away or a pleasant 5 minute walk. The town has a good selection of restaurants and bars, and a `party town` atmosphere after dark. The 3 mile trip to Bodrum and its castle, on a dolmus (local bus), is a great way to see some Turkish history and culture.
