Its low-slung buildings are modern, but more subtle than monumental; its interiors are richly adorned with authentically Turkish visual references, providing an unmistakable sense of place.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked into quiet hills of wild cypress and olive trees across the bay from Bodrum, ancient ruins at Ephesus sit within day-trip reach.
The rooms
Hillside Ridge Terrace rooms feature private plunge pools and olive gardens, while marble bathrooms across all rooms offer deep soaking tubs facing the sea.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Heated infinity pools and a quiet lap pool stretch across timber decks, looking out over the Aegean coastline.
The baths
A heated indoor pool sits beneath curved timber slats, steps away from circular marble hammams with starry domed ceilings.
The gym
Technogym equipment sits under slatted timber ceilings, alongside private consultation rooms for metabolic screening and guided yoga sessions.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Six restaurants and bars serve Aegean seafood and organic garden produce, ranging from thatched beach pavilions to tables beneath the olive trees.
The spa is impressive, to say the least. At over 100,000 square feet, the premier wellness destination offers seemingly endless ways to relax and rejuvenate.
How it began
