There is plenty of nightlife in Gumbet (where the beach is - Bodrum doesn't really have a beach to speak of).
Bar Street in Gumbet mostly caters for Brits and Europeans - loads of music bars open til 4 or 5am, plus a couple of clubs open til even later.
Along the beachfront heading slightly away from the resort centre (towards the all inclusive hotels), there are some lovely chill-out bars and a couple of Turkish bars also open til the early hours.

Bodrum's nightlife is much more cosmopolitan than Gumbet - caters to Europeans and Turks alike. Bodrum's main Bar Street gets very very busy in high season (round about now).

In both resorts (which are literally over the hill from each other and easily reached either way in 10 minutes by local minibus - dolmus) you can shop til you drop all day and into the night.

Just please dont go on the Club Bodrum catermaran which keeps you out at sea until 6 in the morning trying to charge you around £6 (yes pounds) for a coke can sized beer...

Other than that Bodrum and Gumbet are great places to go and both have good nightlife :D

Thanks for all your replies, so overall would people generally suggest to stay in gumbet (close to a good beach) and then go out in bodrum for the nightlife???? cheers
