The newcomer among the luxury hotels in Bodrum is the Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort, opened in May 2024 on its own small peninsula in Gölköy. A digital artwork by Refik Anadol greets you in the lobby, sculptures by Bernar Venet add to it, and every stay is in a suite or villa. For dinner you reserve at Turkey’s first Spago by Wolfgang Puck or at Caviar Kaspia, the outpost of the Paris institution. The concept is called Maxx Inclusive: full board plus a credit for the à la carte restaurants.
Maxx Royal Bodrum ResortAt The Bodrum EDITION, Michelin-starred chef Stefano Ciotti has run The Trattoria since the 2024 season, with Italian dishes, cocktails and cultural evenings. By day you share global plates at Morena by the infinity pool; in the evening, in season, the Istanbul pop-up Inari Kujira moves in with Japanese-inspired cooking.
At the Susona Bodrum, which opened in 2020 as Hilton’s first LXR property in Turkey, the summer restaurant calendar is worth a look. From June 15 to July 15 Monteverdi from Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus serves Northern Italian cuisine as a pop-up, and in July and August Malva opens with farm-to-table Aegean cooking, recommended by the Michelin Guide 2025 according to the hotel.
Views to the horizon: At The Bodrum EDITION the 28-meter infinity pool at the foot of the grounds runs right to the sea.

The Bodrum EDITION · YalıkavakFor families: The Mandarin Oriental Bodrum has four outdoor pools, including a family pool with a play area next to the Pool Bar, plus an indoor pool in the spa.

The Lagoon Suites open straight onto the lagoon pool, designed like a natural lake.
A pool of your own: If you want a suite hotel in Bodrum with a private pool, book one of the 23 villas with private pools at the Mandarin Oriental Bodrum. At the Susona Bodrum all villas and several suite categories have their own pool, and at The Bodrum EDITION you stay in suites with plunge pools or in the four-bedroom villa with its pool.
Above the town: From the outdoor pools at The Marmara Bodrum you look out over the town and the bay.
If you are looking for a 5-star hotel in Bodrum with a warm pool outside high summer, look for heated ones: at the Allium Villas Resort Bodrum the infinity pool is heated and usable in every season, and at the Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort every pool except the lagoon is heated, the indoor pool included. Our travel advisors will gladly tell you which resort suits your travel dates best.

The spa at the Caresse Resort Bodrum covers 1,700 m² and combines a hammam, sauna and indoor pool with an outdoor hot tub and a Cryo Suite; massages also take place in the open air with sea views.
Caresse Resort Bodrum · GumbetRituals and laps: At the Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort you book a Moroccan hammam ritual or a four-hands massage in the VIP spa suite of the Maxx Wellbeing Centre, then swim laps in the 25-meter pool. The spa at The Bodrum EDITION has eight treatment rooms, a hammam, a salt room, a sauna and a Vitality Lounge and is open daily from 10am to 8pm, day guests included. At the Allium Villas Resort Bodrum the One Life Spa focuses on personalized treatments, with Turkish and Asian massages, some by Balinese therapists.
No booking fee: the benefits simply come on top of the rate you book.
Yoga on the jetty: The quieter luxury hotels in Bodrum have their own spas too. At the Susona Bodrum yoga and meditation take place on the jetty, and the spa with its hammam opens from 10am to 7pm. At The Marmara Bodrum the heated marble of the hammam warms you up.
With a Michelin star: At The Bodrum EDITION, Osman Sezener cooks contemporary Aegean and Anatolian dishes at KITCHEN, with fish, meat and produce from the hotel’s own gardens and nearby farms; in 2026 the restaurant kept its Michelin star for the third year in a row. In season, Mehmet Akdağ serves Anatolian dishes cooked over fire at DAHA.

Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comOver the water: At the Mandarin Oriental Bodrum you dine at Hakkasan in the open air above the sea, with Cantonese cuisine and live music; ROKA fires up its robata grill from May to October, and Ferdi Baba brings Aegean seafood to the table. At the Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort Spago by Wolfgang Puck sits on a deck over the water, while Casa Sol serves Latin American sharing plates on the beach.
The Aegean on your plate: At Tuti, at The Marmara Bodrum, Hakan Süve reinterprets Aegean cuisine, awarded two toques by Gault&Millau, served from 7pm to 11pm on the terrace above Bodrum. At the Allium Villas Resort Bodrum, Cliff Bodrum pairs Aegean tradition with fresh organic ingredients and views of the islands.
The Marmara Bodrum · City CentreBeach and sunset: At the Caresse Resort Bodrum the beach belongs to Buddha-Bar Beach, with fusion cuisine and cocktails; add Barbarossa, the outpost of the Paros seafood restaurant, and La Zucca with handmade pasta, open from April 1 to November 1. If you want to end the day at a 5-star hotel in Bodrum with an aperitif, the Susona Bodrum has its OctoZen bar for exactly that.
Michelin Keys recognize the hotel as a whole, not a restaurant. One Michelin Key goes to the Mandarin Oriental Bodrum and to the Allium Villas Resort Bodrum. The Mandarin Oriental also holds five stars in the Forbes Travel Guide, and Condé Nast Traveler readers voted it among the 25 best resorts in Europe in 2025.
Allium Villas Resort Bodrum · YalikavakThe Bodrum EDITION holds four stars in the Forbes Travel Guide, and its KITCHEN restaurant adds a Michelin star. The Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World, while The Marmara Bodrum belongs to Small Luxury Hotels of the World.
Several resorts were brand firsts: with the Mandarin Oriental Bodrum, Mandarin Oriental arrived in Turkey in 2014; The Bodrum EDITION opened in 2018 as the country’s first EDITION resort, the Susona Bodrum in 2020 as the first LXR Hotels & Resorts property, and the Caresse Resort Bodrum was the first Luxury Collection resort in Bodrum.
The gardens of the Allium Villas Resort Bodrum tell a story of their own: native and exotic plants grow on around 13 acres of hillside, a tribute to the “Fisherman of Halicarnassus”, Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı, who brought plants from around the world to Bodrum.
The peninsula is bigger than the map suggests: from Demirbükü on the north coast it is 22 kilometers into town, and from Milas-Bodrum Airport the drive to the resorts in the north and in Yalıkavak takes around 45 to 50 minutes. So choose your luxury hotel in Bodrum by where you want to spend your evenings: in the old town, at a marina or on your own beach.

The Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort has its own small peninsula in Gölköy, about 12 miles north of town.
Susona Bodrum · TorbaYalıkavak: The Bodrum EDITION lies on Yalıkavak Bay in the west of the peninsula, three kilometers from the marina, with a 100-meter private beach and beach club.
