In August, Amanresorts will open Amanruya hotel on Turkey’s Bodrum Peninsula. Surrounded by pine forests and olive groves, Amanruya is set on a hillside offering views of the Aegean Sea and a winding pathway leading to a protected beach. Inspired by the region’s traditional architecture, Amanruya incorporates a series of courtyards and terraces to evoke the feeling of a village, while local materials including stone, acajau wood, and Turkish marble form a timeless natural palette.
The property features 36 cottages featuring a four-poster bed, writing desk, dressing room and bathroom with soaking tub and garden views, an exterior terrace with a covered dining and lounging pergola, private swimming pool, an outdoor shower, fireplace, and in-floor heating. The resort’s central buildings include an arrival pavilion, a three-story library, terrace and wine lounge, boutique, an art gallery, two spa suites, and four dining pavilions. A 165-foot marble swimming pool, tennis court, and beach club round out the facilities.
