Set back from the main road on a protected nature reserve, this exclusive resort is framed by volcanic mountains…
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The secluded Datça Peninsula unfolds with protected pine forests, volcanic peaks, and hidden bays where the Aegean meets the Mediterranean.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame sea and mountain vistas, paired with Italian marble bathrooms, contemporary Turkish artwork, and private furnished balconies.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
An outdoor infinity pool overlooks the bay, and the spa houses a heated indoor pool beneath geometric skylights.
The spa and gym
Traditional marble hammam suites host scrub rituals within Mytha Spa, and the gym looks straight out onto the gardens.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Manos
Dining tables sit on the white sand beneath woven basket shades, serving Aegean seafood alongside live music and plate smashing.
At the table
La Guérite hosts sunset DJ sets along the water's edge, and Zuma serves robata grill dishes beneath coffered timber ceilings.
How it began
Originally built in the late 1980s as the Kartal hotel, Doğuş Group redeveloped the clifftop landmark into a modernist coastal retreat.
