Renting a serviced apartment or holiday letting in this wonderful Turkish town situated on the Aegean Sea gives you access to two of the most impressive places in the whole of Turkey, The Waterfalls of Pamukkale, or the Cotton Castle, and Hierapolis, Apollo’s sacred city.

I cannot begin to describe the exquisite beauty of the Waterfalls of Pamekkale but I will try. These beautiful turquoise pools lie in basins of natural white calcite and gently cascade over the edges into the calcite basins below until they are full and they too overflow into further basins. These dazzling white natural formations would be a sight to behold on their own but combined with the rich turquoise waters they are just incredible, the sort of thing that dreams or fairytales are made of. The best bit is that you can soak your feet in these wonderful pools and let the warm water ease away your aches and pains. Just indescribable and something you have to experience for yourself.

Your serviced residence or aparthotel in Gumbet also gives you access to Hierapolis, The Sacred City. This city is believed to have been founded by the god Apollo and is now a World Heritage Site. Here you can immerse yourself in a hot spring pool amidst ancient ruins, view the beautiful monumental fountain and the wonderful Basilica Church, take a look at the Temple of Apollo and then pay a visit to the rather unnerving Plutonium. This manmade sacred cave is said to be the doorway to the underworld and Pluto’s domain. The cave is inaccessible and has been sealed up due to the poisonous vapour it emits, possibly why it thought to lead to hell. The ancient North Acropolis is also well worth a look with over 1,200 tombs in a variety of styles and designs. There is also a museum on site where you can view ancient coins, items of archaeological interest, beautiful jewellery, sarcophagi and exquisite statues. This mystical place really deserves a whole day of exploration, I have only scratched the surface, there is so much more to see.

The beautiful beaches of this region are also within walking distance of your apartment rental or holiday let in Gumbet and here you can enjoy numerous water sports including windsurfing and parasailing or just stretch out and enjoy the sunshine. At the end of the day why not visit one of the superb restaurants that fringe the beaches and enjoy a traditional Turkish meal whilst watching a spectacular Turkish sundowner. Absolute perfection.
