Bodrum's wellness offerings are extensive, with exclusive hotels providing private hammams (Turkish baths) and spa suites for traditional and contemporary spa treatments. The Bodrum EDITION, for instance, boasts a comprehensive spa offering healing massages, therapy baths, beauty treatments, a fully equipped gym, Pilates studio, and boxing equipment, designed to cater to comprehensive health and fitness regimes.
Unique wellness activities include SUP yoga (stand-up paddleboard yoga) on the sea, fitness classes on terraces with panoramic views, and private spa treatments within luxurious villas.
Cultural Depth Beyond the Coastline
