Yazz Collective
The only way is up
Coniferous cove
Say ahoy, matey to Yazz Collective, the best kind of beach club: one that’s only accessible by boat. In its own Turquoise Coast corner in Turkey, the hotel is not all sunloungers and sundowners, since the architect decided to make it an exhibition space, too (his many talents include owning an Istanbul gallery). The lush landscaping stars perfectly placed palm trees and almost comically hanging thatch. It wouldn’t be a beach club without DJ sets – there are sunset parties every weekend – and the food is definitely worth dropping anchor for (just ask the nautical neighbours).

Our Favourite Rooms
For more exotic ablutions than usual, book a room with an outdoor shower and be at one with nature (and the local fauna) – we especially love B2, which has a stargazing-ready terrace. It’s perfectly placed for minimal front-door-to-shore step counts, too.
Spa
The two treatment rooms have two beds each, along with an open-air shower and changing area. The spa’s signature treatment is the aggression-free Herbal Punch massage and there are two Balinese therapists in residence for expert Eastern aromatherapy. It’s open from 9am until 8pm.
Packing Tips
This is one place where boat shoes will actually be acceptable, so if you have a thing for the not-always-in-fashion footwear, go crazy.
Also
If you thought the interiors were on the artistic side, that’s because of the assorted artworks and installations on loan from the architect’s Istanbul gallery.
子供
The secluded shore is more popular with couples, but all ages are welcome. The kids’ lounge is open daily from 10am to 6pm for four- to 12-year-olds (under-fours are welcome with parents in tow). Activities include beading, painting and dancing.

Food & Drink
Top Table
Settle on to a shaded sofa or sun-worship from dawn till dusk on one of the double day-beds stacked up in tiers on the decking.
ドレスコード
All at sea (in a good way).
Hotel Restaurant
Breakfast spans the virtuous (whole boards of garden-grown produce) to the less so (grilled cheese and sourdough fritters). Nautical neighbours will be pleased to know that there’s space for 10 boats at the pontoon and straight-to-ship catering is available. Dishes at the Mediterranean-mad restaurant include burrata, braised artichokes and beetroots baked in the wood-fired oven – all of which are sourced seasonally and locally. The seafood selection is vast, with a crudo bar starring smoked local mackerel with avocado cream and tuna tartare. Since you’ll be competing with local yachties hoping to disembark for dinner, it’s advisable to make evening reservations when you arrive.
Hotel Bar
The beach bar will service all of your chilli-margarita needs – staff will also craft an aptly named Grog Time for your first drink of the day when you’re ready. The lounge bar in the gardens doles out refreshing home-made lemonade, iced teas, kombucha and coffees. Yazz gets vibrant at the weekends with DJ sets – there are sundown sessions (5pm to 7pm) and DJ performances (10pm to 1am) every Friday and Saturday night.
Last Orders
Breakfast is served from 8am until noon. Lunch hours are from noon until 6pm; dinner is served from 7pm until 10.45pm. The bars call time at midnight. Drinks are served at the beach between 9am and 7pm, with food available from noon to 6pm.
Room Service
Snacks and meals can be ordered to your room between 8am and 10.30pm, with drinks available until midnight.
Planes
The nearest airport is Dalaman, a little over an hour away by car. Hotel transfers can be arranged for up to five people; it's €115 per car one-way.
Automobiles
The hotel will be able to help you park your car on dry land and find where to board its free boats. Sailing time is less than 10 minutes.
Worth Getting Out of Bed For
The hotel’s private bay has two areas, including one for families with children. Activities to tempt you away from your sunlounger include treks around the bay, cruises along the coast, watersports or just plain old swims. If that doesn’t sound active enough, sign up for a yoga or Pilates class, or book in with a personal trainer. You’ll also be able to learn to paint at the hotel’s very own art club. Or head up to the port city of Fethiye to see its impressive natural harbour and ancient tombs carved into the cliffs.
