We wanted to take a final weeks holiday to end the summer in sun and ended up at the La Rosa in Gumbet, Turkey with Holidays 4 U at a price of £264 pp for half board including transfers. We travelled with Onur Air from Gatwick and was given an in flight meal and drinks. The weather was 30degrees every day and practically had the hotel to ourselves as it was near the end of season. The pool area is set in a lovely courtyard together with bar area. The rooms were basic with a shower en suite but was clean with linen changed once during the week. We paid £3 per day for air conditioning and hired a safe deposit box. Our evening meal consisted of 4 courses and although simple, it gave us a taste of Turkish quisine which we may not have otherwise tasted. The breakfast was very simple, bread, cheese, boiled eggs so we usually went to one of the many resturants offerring an english fry up for a pound (3 lira). The hotel is on the top of quite a steep hill away from the bustle of Gumbet resort which took about a 15 minute walk each evening but took a cab back home for 5 lira. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly, as are all the turkish people we encountered, who constantly try to get you into their bar, resturant, shop etc and this became a bit tiresome but in the end you get used to it. The few other guests that we did encounter were regulars who returned year after year. We would recommend using La Rosa and would consider returning in the future.

My friend and I just came back from a weeks holiday in La Rosa Hotel. We picked it out of the brochure because it said it was small and in a residential area.
When we arrived in the dark the area didnt look very impressive but the following morning in the day light it looked much better.
We cant fault the hotel in anyway. The staff are helpful and friendly, the rooms spotless and their is a very lovely garden and pool area to the rear.
Our holiday was really wonderful. It is a 15 minute walk to Gumbet from the hotel and 2 minutes to the dolmus stop on the main road.
We will definitely go back there again.

This Hotel was allocated on arrival when we arrived in Bodrum. The hotel itself is great, however, I would not reccommend it to people with walking difficulties, (as I have), as it is situated on a hill with at least a 20 minute walk to Gumbet and the beach. Taxi's are quite expensive and so our week turned out to be quite dear. The hotel was lovely and clean and with a great swimming pool. The food was good and the Turkish night was not to be missed! It would be a lot easier if the local bus stopped outside the hotel.

hotel la rosa, we stayed in one of the villas it had 3 larged sized bedrooms the villa was very spacious and the kitchen was kitted with every thing we needed the patio area was absolutley nice with apricot trees and grape vines all round and all shaded which was nice when it was sooo hot! in the day by the pool.
the staff was very nice and the cleaners were very very nice they stripped the beds every other day aswell as changing the towels. They swept the floors and mopped the floors every day. very clean the villa was but as for being such a nice hotel the centre of gumbet where the beach was a good 15 minutes away and it is quite hilly coming back.
the supermarket and the sunday market was only 2 minutes away. The only down side was the prices of drinks at the poolside bar. but apart from this we all really enjoyed our stay.
