A timeless boutique hotel offering tranquility and seclusion and yet it is just moments from the white-washed marina town of Bodrum
The Magna Manastir Hotel is timeless, elegant, charming, comfortable, peaceful and well placed. This stylish boutique hotel offers an interesting fusion of period character and contemporary touches which blend seamlessly.
Perfectly poised in the Kumbahce district, the Magna Manastir boutique hotel is a spiritual sanctuary, assembled on the site of an 18th Century monastery. Poised in an elevated hilltop location, the property was made for those who seek to sea-gaze. Arguably, some of the finest Bodrum seascapes and castle vistas can be admired from the hotels colourful tiered gardens and bay-facing infinity swimming pool.
There’s an inviting and laid back vibe imbibing the pool deck. Perhaps, the scent of bougainvillea coupled with the warm sea breeze and awe-inspiring bay views. The focal point and place to gather or enjoy some well-earned loafing time is next to the two sea-facing swimming pools, garden deck and terraces. Black chic day beds are lined symmetrically around the swimming pool while chanel-style parasols provide some respite from the intense summer glare. The ambience is utterly tranquil, spectacular surrounds, mesmerising views and crisp furnishings and fittings provide the backdrop and bling.
Rooms range from sea-facing standard options to spacious suites accommodating up to four guests, all are modern, unfussy and delightfully simple and each enjoys a balcony or terrace. Sleeping quarters look out over the glistening bay and white-sugar-cube sprawl that is Bodrum, some have rugged mountain views while others peer eagerly at Bodrum’s magnificent castle.
Despite it’s bubble like isolation it is conveniently located within an 8 minute drive or reasonable stroll from Bodrum town centre. From here a host of adventures await, a range of outdoor pursuits and sporting activities can be enjoyed, such as scuba diving or gulet cruising, while the avid shopper will enjoy perusing the glitzy boutiques lining the marina’s edge. The culture-vulture is not to be forgotten either, take the local dolmus service and explore less frequented villages along the rugged peninsula.
And when the blood orange sunsets dominate the skyline, raise your glass, with a signature cocktail, to the setting of the sun while listening to the lullaby sung by resident cicadas. On those evenings when you cannot bring yourself to be immersed into the colourful Bodrum spirit, your taste buds will be in for a treat at the hotel’s A’la Carte restaurant. An excellent choice of well executed dishes are on offer from tender fillet steaks to succulent lamb chops as well as a range of lighter salads, mezze and fish dishes.

NEW: Multi Centre Escapes
Our guests are invited to pick any duration of stay, departure airport or even accommodation only – whatever suits your needs
Multi Centre Holidays
Our multi- centre holidays allow our guests the opportunity to make the most of our portfolio. In order to experience an authentic flavour of Turkey, we recommend combining locations either as a split centre stay, for example (7+7 nights, 3+4 nights or any duration that suits you). You can even, create your own multi-centre itinerary so you can get the most of your holiday in Turkey by sampling the wonderfully dramatic scenery and colourful culture that varies so much from region to region. We will take care of all the logistics, split centre transfers and for those who wish to self-drive, we also offer this service too.
Here we display an overview of the regions we feature and some nice ideas but any combination of properties and/or durations is feasible. It is even possible to combine with Istanbul, Cappadocia a guided Lycian Walking Tour or a themed programme tailored to your specific requirements. Call our expert team to utilise their enthusiasm and knowledge- they will be happy to arrange a specific itinerary, transport, guide and excursions.
Inspiration- Our regions and properties
Bodrum
Once a small fishing village, enigmatic Bodrum is a thriving destination offering beautiful beaches and chi-chi beach clubs, a sophisticated and authentic array of bars and restaurants together with a fascinating historical and cultural scene; including a 15th Century castle and architecturally interesting buildings.
Sianji Hotel and Well-Being Resort
Gocek and Fethiye
The unassuming beauty of the Gulf of Fethiye & Göcek region is accentuated by its accessibility from the airport: just 20 minutes’ drive to Göcek harbour from Dalaman, which brings you straight into the heart of chichi coastal Turkey. It’s another 40 minutes to downtown Fethiye, a lively, working town with a gentrified seafront and one of the finest harbours on the entire coast. Both provide easy access to an archipelago of twelve islands, crystal clear waters and beneficent winds which make for wonderful sailing. Flanked by dramatic, pine-covered mountains and not a high-rise in site, their waterfront settings are exceptional. Beyond the two harbour towns an array of sandy beaches await, including some of Turkey’s best-known (Ölü Deniz) and less discovered finds such as Kabak and Kidrak.
Kalkan
Kalkan is a picturesque harbour town set in a vast horseshoe bay, flanked by a rocky mountainous backdrop. Villa Quintessentially pretty, it’s optimum features include cobbled narrow passageways and colourful Greek houses with low hanging bougainvillea clad balconies. The bustling café culture and artisan boutiques allow for long lingering lunches, followed by a mooch in search of artisan leather goods, fine jewellery and super stylish textiles. Kalkan has an excellent selection of serviced beach clubs which ring the bay making it easy to spend time chilling by the water’s edge. All have a laid back barefoot vibe, most with waiter service and each offering a slightly different experience. Just up the road, Patara is a favourite for all, this long stretch of golden sand will appeal to little people longing to build a sandcastle or two and the breeze makes the intense peak summer heat more endurable. Beyond the dunes sits the ancient Lycian site of Patara which was once an important trading port and the supposed birthplace of St Nicholas.
Kas
The Kas Peninsula is a wonderful setting for a holiday: the views across the blue sea to the Greek island of Meis are spectacular and the land slopes down to the rocky coastline where swimming platforms let you plunge straight into the crystal clear water.
Kas is perhaps a little like the ‘big brother’ of Kalkan. Like Kalkan, it has an attractive harbour and winding cobbled streets climbing a hillside. It has a slightly bohemian feel, attracting a range of visitors of different nationalities and ages. The town has a wonderful selection of shops and restaurants, many with charming roof terraces with views over the square and harbour front.
The Bozburun and Datça Peninsula
The Bozburun and Datça peninsula’s have a distinctly Greek feel which sets them apart from the rest of coastal Turkey. This is partly because of their proximity to the Greek Southern Dodecanese ring and the island of Symi is just five miles across the strait. Along the roadside is the waft of drying thyme, rosemary and sage as men twiddle worry beads sipping endless cups of Turkish tea. The area is known for its thyme-scented honey which is sold by the roadside.
Istanbul
Istanbul is a spectacular city that you will never tire of. Steeped in ancient history, today it is a café society with a minaret-lined skyline, a confluence of ancient tradition and contemporary delights. It bemuses and amuses in equal measure. The city famously straddles – both geographically and philosophically – Europe and Asia and stimulates every visitor with a melange of the exotic and familiar. Its geographical position alone – at the neck of trading routes between the Mediterranean and Africa – has afforded the city an important trading position since the Byzantine era. And the Golden Horn, nestling within the city, is one of the world’s finest natural harbours.
Cappadocia
The Cappadocia National Park region covers over 24,000 square kilometres with a distinct and highly unusual landscape. The valley of Fairy Chimneys is the most popular area, roughly within the triangle formed by the three main towns of the region, Avanos, Urgup and Nevsehir. There’s really no adequate way of conveying the surreal moonscape- the enormity of the skies and awe-inspiring geology is something that can only be truly appreciated in person.

2: Repeat as relevant to your chosen holiday applying rates relevant to the date of arrival at the specific property in each case
