Bodrum Loft
Edgy Aegean village
Blue blue Bodrum bay
How to build a Bodrum Loft… On a foundation of Aegean-lapped sands, fringed with floating, lounger-decked pontoons, stack masterfully manicured gardens and tree-shaded terraces – home to Italian and Aegean restaurants; add a choice of convivial bars, a pool, spa and a gym, and secure with well-spaced tiers of luxurious yet minimalist villas and suites; the sparkling navy sea – always in view – adds a welcome and calming constant.

Our Favourite Rooms
One-bedroom apartments, always ground floor, are vast with as much space outdoors as in; highlights include a made-for-lazing living room and raffia-roofed alfresco dining area. For families, two-bedroom villas are ideal. Groups should look no further than Bodrum Loft’s sociably arranged three- and four-bedroom villas. All rooms come with mesmerising views of the Aegean.
Poolside
A wooden deck dotted with parasols and floor-level cushioned loungers edges the adults-only infinity pool, with shrub-framed views of the Aegean beyond and is open 7am till 7pm. An oval pool for children – shallow and shaded – sits to one side.
Spa
Tucked below the hotel’s garden terrace, the spa is a plant-dotted restful retreat with an ivory-painted lobby furnished with café tables and chairs. Off the lobby is a warren of sauna, steam and treatment rooms, although you could opt for a massage in one of the outdoor cabanas nearby.
Packing Tips
Espadrilles or slides for padding around the resort; cover-ups glamorous enough to allow for afternoon cocktails on the way back from the beach.
Also
On-call electric buggies make getting around Bodrum Loft easy. The gym offers personal training, private yoga and pilates classes. The hotel can arrange grocery deliveries for villa guests.
Children
Welcome. Cots can be added to suites; villas come with a single bedroom ideal for a nanny. Babysitting or a nanny can be booked ahead at extra cost.

Top Table
A table at the terrace’s edge at Paper Moon offers uninterrupted views of dazzling Demirbükü Bay. At Loft Elia, any table on the shaded terrace will do.
Dress Code
Longs and a light shirt for him, full-length floatiness for her: donning your finest can only add to the sense of occasion at either restaurant.
Hotel Restaurant
At Loft Elia, chef Tunahan Demir works wonders with regional produce to celebrate Aegean cuisine. For a relaxed atmosphere and fabulous, Paper Moon is the exclusive Bodrum outpost of this Istanbul favourite, which originated in Milan. Chef Giuseppe Pressani oversees an elegant menu of classics such as beef carpaccio and pan-fried clams, veal Milanese and grilled lobster, as well as pasta and risotto. Ters Köşe offers Aegean-inspired cuisine with fresh fish at the forefront of its seasonl menus. Satisfy your sweet tooth at the Pantry, where pastry chef Ghislain Gaille offers a Turkish take on the French pastry experience.
Hotel Bar
An indoor-outdoor space with superlative sea views, Elia Bar is open till 2am for cocktails and tunes that get livelier as the hour gets later: pull up a stool at the wraparound bar beneath bubble pendant lights or nab a sofa in the wooden loggia outdoors. Paper Moon’s alfresco aperitivo bar is the place for fridge-cold flutes of prosecco on sunny afternoons.
