Yasmin Resort is set in the peaceful Kadıkalesi area, just outside Turgutreis on the Bodrum peninsula. Here you get the best of both worlds: a private beach and wide-open sea views from the hotel, plus easy access to Turgutreis’ golden sands, boutiques and waterfront cafés. The sunsets in this corner of the Aegean are some of the best on the coast, with silhouettes of nearby Greek islands on the horizon.

Turgutreis itself is the second-largest town on the peninsula, known for its long promenade, Saturday market and handy dolmuş links to Bodrum Town if you fancy a day of harbour-side shopping and castle-hopping.

• On a private beach
• Approx. 1.7km to nearest shops, bars and restaurants
• Approx. 5.7km to Turgutreis resort centre
• Easy dolmuş links for exploring Bodrum peninsula

Approx. transfer time from airport: 2 hours

Dining is a major part of the Yasmin Resort experience, with a big choice of buffet and à la carte venues spread between the main building and the seafront.

Start the day at the Main Restaurant, where buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner feature international favourites and Turkish classics, plus a kids’ corner and highchairs for little ones. Sultan Restaurant and the Patisserie offer buffets and snacks through the day, ideal for casual bites between pool and beach.

In the evenings, mix things up at the à la cartes (reservations required, seasonal opening):

• La Perla Restaurant – Italian specialities and pastas (May–Oct)
• Ela Lounge – atmospheric beachfront international dining (usually Jun–Sep)
• Sultan Turkish A la Carte – meze and grilled Turkish favourites on the beach
• The Oceania Fish A la Carte – fresh fish and seafood by the water

Drinks are covered by a clutch of bars: a lobby bar and Coffee Corner for pre-dinner drinks, plus beach and pool bars including Cabana, Central Snack Bar, Pool Bar and Sultan Snack Bar. Expect a mix of local and selected international brand drinks on All Inclusive Plus, with smart-casual dress codes (no beachwear) in many indoor venues.

The All Inclusive Plus programme typically includes one complimentary à la carte dinner per 6-night stay (restaurant and dates vary by season), along with snacks and drinks for a generous number of hours each day.

Water babies are spoilt for choice. There are two outdoor freshwater pools – including one with a children’s section – set in broad sun terraces with loungers and parasols. A separate aquapark with slides keeps older kids and teens entertained for hours (open seasonally, usually May–Oct, and subject to age/height restrictions).

For cooler days or a relaxed swim away from the heat, there’s an indoor freshwater pool with a children’s section.

Down at the shoreline, a private beach runs along the front of the resort, with wooden jetties, plenty of sunbeds and easy access into the Aegean. Watersports such as canoes, pedalos, windsurfing, inflatables and scuba diving are available for a charge and are typically run by an external provider.

Active types will appreciate the air-conditioned gym equipped with cardio and strength machines, plus a daily programme of aerobics, aqua aerobics, darts, short tennis, table tennis and tennis (some activities may carry a charge).

The spa is a calm retreat offering a Turkish bath, sauna and steam room, along with a menu of massage and beauty treatments (extra charge, 18+). There’s also an on-site hairdresser for holiday cuts and blow-dries.

Families are well catered for with a children’s club (4–12yrs) offering arts and crafts, small games and sports; a children’s playground; and the ever-popular aquapark. Evening entertainment ranges from live music and DJ sets to professional shows and mini-discos, with a fuller programme in peak summer.
