Güzeloluk is a place in the Erdemli district of the Turkish province of Mersin . The place was the center of a Bucak . Since a regional reform in 2014, the place is no longer a village , but a district of the Erdemli district center. Until 1920 the name of the village was Keloluk .

Güzeloluk is located in the center of the district, about 30 kilometers northwest of Erdemli and 50 kilometers west of the provincial capital Mersin . It is connected to Erdemli by a country road. The place is located on the southern slope of the Göktepe Dağı mountain range , part of the Central Taurus Mountains . The road from Güzeloluk to Erdemli, the ancient Kalanthia, corresponds to a side street of the trunk road from Ikonion ( Konya ) to Pompeiopolis (near Mersin) recorded in the Tabula Peutingeriana .
