A chic coastal retreat with luxury villas, private beach access and spa

Overlooking Cennet Koyu or Paradise Bay on Turkey’s aptly named Turquoise Coast, Mandarin Oriental Bodrum is a stylish, secluded resort with luxury accommodation and Aegean Sea views. Its striking contemporary buildings are arranged on a hillside, surrounded by olive groves and leading down to the coastline and two beaches, exclusively for guests.

This luxury hotel in Bodrum is decorated in soothing, natural shades, with marble bathrooms and warm touches added by handcrafted Turkish rugs and local art. Pops of colour come from the natural surroundings, with patios and terraces opening up to views of the cerulean bay or lushly planted gardens. Suites have plunge pools, while some of the luxury villas and apartments have terraces or gardens with infinity pools.

Diverse dining options include casual beach or poolside snacks and meals, Aegean seafood at Ferdi Baba and upscale Chinese cuisine at Hakkasan. Concierges can also arrange private meals on the hotel’s deck or beach, while other bespoke experiences delve into the surrounding landscapes and rich local traditions. Be guided through classic pottery techniques and craft a classic darbuka drum. Learn about the area’s ancient winemaking and olive oil-making practices, sail to ancient cities and archaeological sites or explore the peninsula on a private jeep tour.

Places to combine Mandarin Oriental Bodrum with

Istanbul

The Peninsula Istanbul

Set along the banks of the stunning Bosphorus, located in Karaköy district, the Peninsula Istanbul offers a diverse array of accommodation choices.

Cappadocia

Argos

Originally serving as a cave monastery, this now luxurious space, perched on the edge of the Uçhisar settlement.

Cappadocia

The Museum Hotel

Positioned amid the striking and breathtaking landscapes of Cappadocia, housed within a combination of the land, historical features and ruins that comprise this setting, the Museum Hotel is one of Europe’s most incredible boutique hotels. Immersing its guests in the general wonders of this area, this hotel has an undeniable magical atmosphere, which is evident when waking up to dozens of hot-air balloons taking to the sky, relaxing in your exclusive cave bedroom or enjoying the sunset across the dramatic terrain.

Billed as something of a ‘living museum’, the site is steeped in thousands of years of history, with each of the 30 cave rooms and suites, as well as the specially restored traditional rooms, all decorated with priceless antiques and authentic touches. In fact, other than enjoying wonderful views of Cappadocia, no two rooms are alike, with each bringing its own unique feel, contributing to the hotel’s overall charm and character.

There’s nothing like soaking up the unrivalled panoramic views of the region, best enjoyed from the on-site restaurant or inviting terrace, the former providing a flavour of Turkish cuisine with some of the region’s finest recipes. For further indulgence, guests will be tempted by a dip in the Roman-themed infinity pool, while the hotel’s spa provides a range of rejuvenating treatments.

Istanbul

Burdock Hotel

The Burdock Hotel is located in the popular historical quarter of Istanbul, surrounded by art and design artisanal workshops. The hotel acts as a cultural hub for residents and travellers alike.
