How to Plan Your Trip to Bodrum, Turkey Aegean Sea Views, Luxury Hotels, and Incredible Restaurants Included
Come for the sparkling western Aegean coast, stay for the shopping, art scene, and fine dining.
Maçakizi
In the Göltürkbükü neighborhood, not far from Yalikavak, art galleries, jewelry makers, and clothing stores are interspersed between boutique hotels. More Turkish in scope than international, travelers can find the beating heart of Bodrum’s art scene, particularly at the 74-room Maçakizi, a boutique hotel that originally opened in the 1970s and that was refreshed in 2000. It often hosts pop-up exhibitions from artisan retailer 74Escape.
