When you arrive at Bodrum Airport there are 3 ways of getting to the Horizon Sky Beach resort, depending on when your flight arrives and preference. BY BOAT We feel the most romantic, convenient and the nicest way to arrive at Horizon Sky by using the free taxi boat. As you come out of Bodrum Airport there will be licenced yellow taxi drivers waiting to take you to the town of Gulluk, ask the driver to drop you outside The Broken Barrel Bar. This should take around 15mins and cost 75TL (about £18) If the boat is there to you can leave your luggage on board until it’s due to depart and your holiday starts now ! When you arrive at Horizon Sky , it’s as if you have arrived at a secluded island ....... The boat takes approx 35 minutes , you will disembark at the marina and walk a few yards to where the resort mini-bus or car will pick you up and take you up the hill to the entrance to the resort. If you have lots of baggage ask for help from the crew. At the entrance to the resort you will be asked to check-in at the security building. You will be given a set of keys and taken up to the apartment. There are a small flight of steps to the apartment so again ask for help if you need it with your bags. BY TAXI - it’s a 45mins ride from Bodrum Airport, with the licenced yellow taxi drivers waiting to take you to your destination Or hiring a car - I can supply you details of where to hire a car either at the airport or in Gulluk. Food Shopping There is a mini-mart on-site and Sinan’s shop just outside of the development. He sells every day basics and will deliver to the apartment if you order a significant amount. If you have a car, the nearest supermarket is located 5-10 minutes drive away. It has a good selection of items. The biggest supermarkets are in Gulluk. If you take the boat you can stock up and bring your shopping back with you. If the boat is there you can leave your bags while you go off and do other things. If you have a lot of shopping Then one of the drivers will take you to the penthouse Restaurants There is a restaurant and bar on site which is lovely. Kircin Marina beach bar and café down at the waterfront Marina (near to where you catch the boat) the food is excellent. The ambience is relaxing with outdoor dining, whilst watching the lovely boats. They run a shuttle service from Horizon Sky. For a wider range of restaurants, bars and pubs then head to Gulluk. For those looking for an extra piece of luxury then there’s always The Med Inn which is a short taxi ride outside of Gulluk…it is well worth the ride. The sun-set from here is breath taking. Local Beaches The resort has its own private beach next to the Marina. Also there is Tepekoy Beach about a 5-10m walk away Jasmine Beach is only 3 km away. If you call the owner of Yakamoz Restaurant he will come and collect you from Horizon sky or you could look him up on Facebook - Ayhan Can. Of course, they do expect you to buy a meal while you are there. This is great value for money, you can eat on the pontoon on the sea. You can also go in the evening for dinner on the beach and watch the sun-set. Spa The nearest spa is now in Gulluk at the new Marina and Spa Hotel (shaped like a ‘boat’ on the peninsular Gym There is a gym in Gulluk , which is very reasonably priced. Public Transport There is a bus station in Gulluk where you can catch the dolmus bus to Bodrum or to Milas. This is the easiest and cheapest way to get to Bodrum which is well worth a visit. It takes 40 minutes from Gulluk to get there. The shops are great and there are fabulous restaurants along the water’s edge. Milas with its weekly food market is worth a visit. The locals say that you can get anything in Milas that you can get in Bodrum for half the price! Once in Bodrum you can even take a day trip to Kos or Rhodes!!
