Overview
Olive groves, stone archways and cascades of bougainvillea set the tone at Zeytinada Hotel – a low-rise, village-style hideaway in relaxed Torba. This 4-star retreat feels like a tucked‑away Aegean hamlet, yet you’re an easy stroll from the beach and local tavernas, and just a short taxi ride from Bodrum’s buzzing marina and nightlife. With a spacious pool, spa with Turkish bath and cosy, well-kept rooms, it’s a soothing base for couples, friends and laid-back families who want Bodrum on tap but not on top of them.

Map & location
Torba, Bodrum Area, Turkey
Zeytinada Hotel sits in the heart of Torba, a pretty, green-fringed bay just north of Bodrum town. Torba still feels like a traditional seaside village, with a small harbour, pebble-and-sand beach and seafood restaurants right by the water. Pine-clad hills wrap around the bay, giving the resort a rural, away-from-it-all feel, yet you’re only a short taxi ride from Bodrum’s waterfront bars, shops and medieval castle.
It’s a brilliant choice if you want to divide your time between leisurely days by the pool or on the beach and the option for occasional nights out in Bodrum without staying in the thick of it.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The heart of the hotel is its inviting outdoor freshwater pool, framed by mature gardens and plenty of sunbeds and parasols. There’s a separate shallow children’s section, so younger guests have space to splash around without disturbing relaxed swimmers. Inflatables are permitted, adding to the fun, and complimentary pool towels are provided.
Facilities and exact set-up can vary a little between pools and by season, but in general you can expect a spacious sunbathing terrace and easy access to the pool bar for drinks and daytime snacks.
When you fancy the sea, Torba’s compact beach is around 550m away – a straightforward stroll – with jetties and simple beach clubs offering a different angle on the bay.
Spa, sports & wellness
Wellness lovers are well looked after here. The spa features a classic Turkish bath (hamam), sauna and whirlpool, plus a menu of massage and beauty treatments. Spa access and treatments are typically for guests aged 18+ and come at an extra cost, with seasonal opening hours.
If you prefer to keep active, there’s an air-conditioned gym with cardio machines and free weights (minimum age 16 years), as well as a tennis court, table tennis and a pool table.
In the evenings, the hotel lays on occasional entertainment – often live music – between roughly May and September, keeping the atmosphere sociable but never rowdy. Children have their own playground with swings, slides and shaded areas (age/height restrictions may apply), and families will appreciate the children’s menus and highchairs in the restaurants.
Practical extras include a 24-hour-style reception with concierge-style support and luggage storage, plus motorised scooters and wheelchairs available to hire locally if needed.
