Writers, intellectuals, artists and musicians have long called this Aegean town home, or second-home, attracting a vibrant cultural scene paralleled only by the town's nightlife. Windswept beaches and glittering waters provide the backdrop to the perfect beach getaway.

I love wine tasting, and when I found the opportunity to do it in Bodrum I hopped on it! A small family winery which operates from the basement. I took the Dolmus bus there from city center very easy and only 3lira or 40 cents. I emailed the host to see if I was the only one who booked and I was which I was OK with it. When I arrived she had invited her friends and we had such a great time, meetings locals, having good wine and conversation. She said I was the first guest since March. We had such a delicious mezze cooked by her mom. A true local experience to end my trip in Turkey! And her friends were so kind enough to drop me off in the city center as well. And best believe I brought a bottle of wine home! The price is a bit steep compared to the Turkish Lira but in US Dollars was worth it!

This gorgeous little charming vineyard must be one of Bodrums best kept secrets! My daughter had arranged & booked this as a special birthday surprise for me during our week long holiday in Bodrum Turkey. We were picked up promptly from our hotel, Our driver was very polite and knowledgeable, giving us the history of the villages we past through. Upon arrival we were met personally by the wonderful chef and host who explained and showed us the machinery/process of the wine and about how the owner in her retirement came to making the delectable wines. We were given our first glass of tasty rose wine and were shown to our seats in the dining room where the open fire was lit and the views/sunset from the terrace were amazing. The food was absolutely fantastic paired with awesome wines, especially loved the goats cheese and the homemade Lemoncello! Here i will admit to not being a great lover of red wine in the past however the Karnas Red Zindafel Wine completely converted me. Overall this is a truly enchanting memorable experience and i highly recommend everyone to visit Karnas Vineyard at least once!
