Amanruya Resort - Bodrum, Turkey

Currently closed for refurbishment

Inspired by traditional local architecture, Amanruya’s village layout features individual contemporary stone cottages, each with a private garden and marble swimming pool, and stunning views across the forests and coastline

Combining Mediterranean design elements with contemporary Turkish features and local materials – such as green marble from Antalya – Amanruya’s serene stone structures flow into each other, creating an organic rhythm of spaces

Pine forests and ancient olive groves carpet the hills around Amanruya, leading to scalloped bays with views of the Aegean Sea. The resort’s sheltered Beach Club is complemented by a tennis court and Olympic-length swimming pool

The Aegean is home to eons of history. Set sail to the 15,000-seat theatre in the ancient city of Miletus or the 7th–century BCTemple of Apollo at Didyma. Or visit Ephesus, one of the greatest ruined cities in the western world
