Tuzla guide for lifestyle, entertainment and attractions

Tuzla: Golf

Tuzla Summary
Tuzla is actually situated outside the peninsula, twenty-eight kilometres from Bodrum Town. The lifestyle here is extremely quiet, and compared with other Bodrum towns there is not a lot to do. People come to Tuzla for its wildlife and nature, and its remoteness.

There are not many facilities in Tuzla, but there are some apartments with their own services.

A number of new developments have gone up here recently, as well as a new golf course. However, visitor numbers are slow to rise and there is a dearth of cheap apartments for sale here. There are a few expats here but it's not really suitable for those with young families due to the sedate nature of the area.

Holiday Homes in Tuzla
Rating: 5/10

Investment Property in Tuzla
Rating: 5/10

Permanent Homes in Tuzla
Rating: 4/10

Twenty-eight kilometres from Bodrum Town, Tuzla is located slightly outside the peninsula. It's a very quiet place and there's not a lot to do - although if you like golf or bird watching you'll have plenty to occupy you with a new golf course and far-reaching wetlands where birds flock. The number of expats moving here is steadily rising, and there is a small but strong community here.

If you're thinking of joining them and settling here in a permanent home, you'd find a quiet area with the potential to become very busy. Those seeking a holiday home may find Tuzla a little on the quiet side, and it's quite far to go into town for a meal or night out.

New developments are going up here all the time, and with the new golf course set to bring in the punters, it's a prime place to buy an investment property, but investors should take a long-term view due to a current surplus of similar properties on the market.
