The Maçakizi Bodrum is absolutely perfect! My boyfriend and I are so impressed with every aspect of…read morethe Maçakizi from the aesthetics (architecture, layout, interiors, decor, etc) to the staff, food and overall relaxed environment. For starters, the creative detail in the aesthetics of the Maçakizi are en pointe (comparable to that of an Aman)--the minimalistic architecture, interior design and decor of the entire property including the rooms, beachfront, restaurant, gym, spa, etc. It is all so well done--built beautifully into the cliffside on the water of the Agean with unparalleled views of the Bodrum shoreline, surrounded by plant life. They have two dogs and a few kitties that live on site and come around from time to time. I'm a huge animal lover so this was a major bonus for me--but for those who don't care for the furry friends, they are not a bother in the least. The Maçakizi is family owned and operated, so it doesn't feel like a typical touristy type hotel/resort. It's very chill and uncomplicated--perfect for those looking for a relaxing environment (again, think Aman). My boyfriend and I are both fitness/health junkies, so the gym and the personal trainers were also a major bonus for us. I did both personal training with Isa and private Pilates with Lucy--both are GREAT and only available during the summer months. I will also note that the chef was very accommodating to both my boyfriend and I with all of our special health food requests. They have amazing kale salads, quinoa salads, homemade [yes, homemade] almond milk, oats, fresh fruit, granola, turkish yogurt, etc. I can go on and on about how much we love the Maçakizi--but I'll end it here in highly recommending a stay here (:
