Peda hotels Sun club Bodrum
It was sold to us as 4 *, in fact it is rather 3 *.
I am writing a really good point of view.
The hotel is exclusively for young people who go to hang out. Families with children and the elderly have nothing to do there at all, you will only ruin your vacation. This is the main conclusion, further in order.

The hotel is located in Gumbet, right on the bar street. The territory is small, two lines of rooms (buildings on 2 floors), between them there is a footpath, a swimming pool, a bar, a dining room, a paid cafe, a beach. The staff does not speak Russian, before the trip I read that there is a Russian-speaking girl at the reception, she is not there, everyone speaks only Turkish and English. The rooms are normal, ordinary, everything you need to eat, air conditioning, a hair dryer worked, they clean it like everywhere else, old towels, a balcony - one name, two people will no longer be accommodated there. All inclusive from 10 am to 11 pm. Beer, raki, gin, cola, fanta, sprite, UPI, cooler water. Bottled water - one bottle in the room upon arrival, they don’t give anymore, they only sell it or collect it quietly in a bottle from the cooler. Breakfast, lunch, dinner - the choice is very poor, but you can find something to eat. Nothing is warmed up, if you come to the end of dinner, you will eat cold. In the afternoon, some cakes are baked for about an hour, at 17 o'clock dry cookies. The beach is very small, sunbeds are old, dirty, own towels. Along the line of the beach there are only cafes, each with sunbeds and umbrellas, you can lie down on the territory of any cafe, subject to making an order. A big plus of this hotel is the first coastline. The sea is clean, but cold, +23, sand, you go far shallow, then you can swim. Large dogs walk along the beach, not aggressive, but not pleasant, we saw three for sure. During the day, the pool plays music, there is no animation in principle. We never saw Sergey, about whom we wrote so much earlier, one other animator appeared on the last day of our vacation, he even called for exercises, but in principle his job is only to announce which club we will go to in the evening. For young people, this is the main huge plus of the hotel: you go out the door and you immediately find bars on the street: you want this, you want another, the music is one, the music is different, entrance is free everywhere, everything lasts until 4 in the morning. This is also a huge minus for adults who do not hang out, children and young people are calmer. Because, no matter how you close the windows, doors, curtains, etc. , all this action is clearly audible in your room, and it would be okay to have one music, you can still fall asleep to this, and here a mixture - on the one hand, yells one , on the other, something else, on the third, the leader is shouting something.
Now WARNING! In July, E. coli was found in the hotel. Half the staff fell ill. Some of the tourists got poisoned, some in a milder form - they sat in the room for 3 days, someone was taken to the hospital, put on a dropper, the diagnosis was poisoning. They allegedly called some services to check and clean, but if you are already going to this hotel, be vigilant in terms of food. We ate at the hotel almost one bread with jam.
Now about the pleasant - Bodrum itself. According to the guide, 85% of tourists are Europeans (it seemed to me that half of them are Turks), the remaining 15% are Russians. Accordingly, almost no one anywhere (with rare exceptions) knows Russian, everything is in English. The city is very beautiful - white two-story houses on the slopes of the mountains. You are in Gumbet Bay, 20 minutes by minibus to Bodrum - 3 lira. You can go on foot to the mills (well, or what is left of them), from the beach of the hotel you can see them on the left. From the hotel to the left, down, across the road 10m there is a tour office, there is a Russian Olga, the prices are very democratic, much cheaper than in Kemer for similar excursions (see photo price). Prices in all stores are in lira, of course, they will convert you into dollars, but at a favorable rate, not overly blasphemous, normal, but still I would advise you to exchange some cash for lira, it’s more convenient. There are no official exchangers in Gumbet! Currency exchange offices in Bodrum, the rate is the same everywhere: $ 1 = 1.85 lira. But in Gumbet you can change money with the same Olga on excursions at a rate of 1.8. In Bodrum itself, there is also a tour office, also with Russian-speaking Olga, from the bus station straight down the street to the embankment, you won’t pass by. Bottled water can be bought at any market right outside the hotel.
