The retreat in Bodrum, Turkey, exceeded all my expectations. Starting with the city itself, this isn’t the usual Turkey we’re accustomed to. Bodrum feels like a little blend of many European cities, with a crystal-clear sea teeming with various fish, white sandy beaches, and breathtaking mountain views. The Le Méridien Bodrum hotel is located in a beautiful, secluded area with stunning balcony views, no hustle and bustle—just serenity and calm ☺️. The hotel grounds are vast, offering plenty of space for an evening walk, and if you’re too lazy to stroll, you can call for a Buggy to take you to any area—whether it’s the beach, a restaurant, or the SPA 😅. Speaking of the SPA at this hotel: I was impressed by the variety of spa treatments, including different saunas, a wide range of massages, meditation with singing bowls, and even aqua aerobics appeared 😅. The treasure room and pool area are very beautiful, the cuisine is delicious, and there’s an abundance of vegetables and fruits to suit every taste. Every evening, dining in restaurants with gorgeous sunset views is simply delightful 🥰❤️. And the restaurant with flowers—it’s impossible not to mention it—it was WOW 🌸🌸🌸. There’s no other word for it.
