On the northern coast of the Bodrum Peninsula, right by the lapping waves of the Aegean Sea and 20 minutes away from the bustling Bodrum city center, one finds the breathtaking Yalıkavak Marina, the three-time consecutive winner of the “Marina of the Year” award. Within its sea-salt-scented embrace, Yalıkavak Marina Hotel rises like Aphrodite from the seafoam, bringing 36 equally lavish keys with it.
Because the backdrop is unmissable, every suite at Yalıkavak Marina Hotel, regardless of size or price, commands an uninterrupted view of the Aegean Sea and the Greek islands of Kos, Kalymnos, and Leros, shimmering on the horizon.
Several of the boutique hotel’s suites offer private balconies or terraces, providing intimate spaces to savor the marina’s vibrant atmosphere and the endless expanse of the sea, perhaps even while indulging in a breakfast spread delivered directly to your room.
Home to one of Turkey’s most luxurious suites, the Yalikavak Panoramic Suite, the hotel enmeshes contemporary design with the natural beauty of its coastal setting. Crisp white exteriors and warm wood accents characterize the property's architecture, which comprises a central building and several interconnected structures, all fully refurbished just this past year.
A pristine white-sand beach, punctuated by rows of sun loungers and umbrellas, curves gracefully along the hotel's edge. Adjacent to this idyllic shoreline lies a 25 meter seasonal pool that seems to bleed into the sea in front of it. Expansive outdoor terraces, adorned with comfortable seating and dining areas, offer guests opportunities to socialize and savor al fresco dining.
The Casia Spa & Fitness center, which features a sauna, massage rooms, a hammam, and a gym, is where guests can indulge in traditional treatments, stock up on skin and body care products or enjoy a traditional Turkish bath.
In addition to the scenic amenities, there is no shortage of eateries dotting the length of the marina, such as the seafood wonder Mynos, known for its top-tier kokoreç (grilled lamb) and orange sauce salmon, and Bagatelle, one of only fifteen locations around the world, bringing a taste of Southern France to the Turkish harbor.
Finally, for those looking to explore far more than just gastronomy outside the hotel’s gates, the marina is also known for its high-end stores, eclectic nightlife and, perhaps most importantly, endless opportunities to set sail into the azure waters of the Aegean Sea.
