Macakizi, Turkey
Half an hour outside the mediaeval city of Bodrum, and almost entirely hidden from view by road, air or sea, the spectacularly stylish Macakizi resort sits high up on a dreamy peninsula, where the zing of pink bougainvillea and the seductive scent of rosemary and thyme welcome lucky guests. Since 1977, supermodels, rock stars and international royalty including Mick Jagger, Rudolf Nureyev and Kate Moss have chosen to make this secret haven their favourite retreat. Tumbling terraces, an open-air spa, a marble-lined hammam, a glass dining-room and outdoor local-art installations guide residents down to the shimmering water’s edge.
