Bodrum Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

The bodrum is full of beautiful scenery, and its all good scenery. I stayed here for 2 nights and went to the castle to see if I couldnt see it. Its a white city, a blue sea, a luxury yacht, every unique taste. Have a panoramic view. There is also an underwater museum in the castle, small and exquisite, because the interior is too dark to shoot, only to give up.

Built during the 15th century medieval Crusades, Bodrum Castle is known as the St. Peter Libertador Castle because it is a place for Christians on the west coast of Asia Minor. In the era of Suleiman the Great in 1523, the territory of the Ottoman Empire continued to expand, and the country bordered with it. The castle gradually lost its important position. In 1895, it was converted into a prison where more than 700 prisoners were detained. Nowadays, it is valued as one of the world's most ruined museums of wrecks, from which you can see the full picture of Bodrum. Entering the castle, the light and shadow are intertwined, and a medieval door has been opened to you, where you can see the active traces left by the Crusaders. There are many exhibition halls in , but most of them can't take pictures. It is worth seeing is the Princess Karia exhibition hall, which displays a gold crown, necklace, bracelet, ring and a rare gold peach bridal leaf pattern. Walk to the top of the castle, you can see the whole Bodrum, the white house is built along the hillside, the palm road is shaded, and the bay is moored with numerous luxury yachts. Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday, summer 9

In the mountains not far from Bodrum, 3 kilometers from the city center, there is a broken white windmill. This is not a place of interest, but it is my favorite corner in Bodrum. The white windmills have long since been abandoned, and the only one that retains a relatively complete windmill tower is also ruined. It is this place that has been forgotten that gives the tramp a habitat. Opposite the white windmill, is the sparkling sea, standing on this hillside, overlooking the whole city, a neatly arranged white city is resting, the middle of the white is dotted with lush red of different degrees Bougainvillea, docked with dense sailboats or cruise ships, listen to local songs from the hot air from time to time.

A few things you must know before coming to Bodrum, Turkey, and sharing two awesome hotels!

When it comes to the Aegean Sea, most people think of Greece. And when it comes to blue and white towns, the first reaction must be Santorini. But in fact, Turkey, which is directly opposite Greece, is also located on the romantic Aegean Sea, and also has its own blue and white town - Bodrum. In addition to the beautiful Aegean Sea, there are also luxury boutique hotels, including Edison! The Edison Hotel in Bodrum avoids the traditional southern coast and chooses the Yalikavak Bay on the west side of Bodrum. This is completely different from my previous experience at the Abu Dhabi Edison, as well as Shanghai, London, New York, Barcelona... and other city-style Edison hotels, and although they are also holiday hotels, they feel very different from the Sanya Edison~ Bodrum itself is located on the dividing line between the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea, and Edison is like a Mediterranean utopia where ancient and modern, east and west, perfectly blend~ Greek colors, Spanish music, Latin American food, modern minimalist style but not losing the luxurious hotel design, coupled with Bodrum's history as the ancient city of Halicarnassus, one of the seven wonders of the world~ Another great Caresse Bodrum Spa Resort - Luxury Collection is located in Gumbet, with an endless romantic and holiday atmosphere, which is absolutely irresistible! This is another great luxury selection resort in the Aegean Sea in Turkey, apart from the Reges Luxury Selection in Izmir Cesme that I have stayed and shared before~ We stayed in a sea view suite in this luxury selection, the bathroom supplies are Acqua di Parma, I really like this scent~ Coming to the Aegean Sea again, the wind is blowing~ But it does not affect the absolute beauty of the blue sky and sea here! The restaurants and bars of the two hotels are not to be missed destinations for enjoying food and wine, it is recommended not to miss Bodrum, a holiday resort on the Aegean Sea in Turkey!

The pearl of the southern Aegean Sea

The overall design style is indeed the cold style unified by Edison in the legend, but it is simple and low-key without losing luxury, which is probably the style of contemporary young people. All the spare parts have been changed to large bottles of le labo, unfortunately, I missed a chance to shear wool. The hotel's restaurant is mainly a restaurant called Kitchen, which implements an ordering system. Breakfast can be served until 12:00. Since we arrived after ten in the morning and the room was not ready yet, the hotel let us go to enjoy breakfast first. The restaurant faces the sea, coupled with delicious food, it is simply a double enjoyment of vision and taste. The swimming pool is not large, but considering the overall volume of the hotel, such a swimming pool is enough. There are loungers everywhere, allowing people to enjoy the sea breeze and sunshine at any time and anywhere. The design of the entire public area is mainly white, with green plants, very summer. Going down the steps, the blue is all in sight, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. There is a small private beach by the sea and even hammocks.

Because staying at bodrum for 2 nights, we chose the beautiful Ramada Hotel, which is located on the island of Kos Island, the Aegean Sea and the Bitez Valley. The city centre of Bodrum is only 4 km away. In fact, the hotel itself is a modern building, and this environment and the surrounding scenery will make you feel that time is going too fast. Lying in the hotel with a round chair, let you sit in the Aegean Sea while enjoying life, time to stop for you, willing to live in such a small town for the rest of your life.

Mandarin Oriental/Türkiye Bodrum/Mediterranean Suite

Today, let me introduce a top hotel in Bodrum - Mandarin Oriental. I stayed at the Bodrum Oriental Mandarin for the first time last year in the lunar month of March, and the experience of my stay is still vivid in my memory today. First of all, let's talk about the arrival at the hotel. I checked in with the butler of Bodrum Hotel in the suite. And I was upgraded to the Mediterranean suite at that time, which is a high-end suite with a relatively high altitude in the hotel. It comes with a private pool (but not heated). The room is spacious and bright, and the furniture is a modern Japanese style favored by the previous generation of Wen Hua Dong. The service quality here is also good. The butler is a gentle Turkish boy. We contacted through text messages, and the speed of replying messages is very fast and timely. Moreover, he is well-trained and basically answers every question comprehensively, so there is basically no need for multiple follow-ups. When I was staying there on the second day, he happened to be on vacation, so he explained the contacts for the next day very clearly the night before and booked a very rich Turkish breakfast for me the next morning, which was really thoughtful 👍. What's special here is the Turkish breakfast at the Mandarin Oriental, which is really extravagant and considered one of the grandest in Turkey. That was the most satisfying interaction I've had with a butler in all my years of hotel experience, with excellent service and attitude! That evening's dinner was at the Japanese restaurant in the hotel. I want to give special praise to Turkey and the United Arab Emirates. They are among the few Muslim regions that can make cod in a more authentic way. It was really amazing👍!
