  Home of the $50 kebab!

  01 May 2026

  First time at this chain and it was not what we expected. This is a lovely hotel - really beautifully landscaped and planted - but part of a huge development on a remote bit of the coast about an hour’s rough driving from Bodrum. As of the end of April there is a large construction project going on at the neighbouring property, and the noise of jackhammers and bulldozers was intrusive on the two morning we had there. So if this kind of thing bothers you, maybe 2027 is a better time to try it. Given the location you’re very much stuck in the hotel (over $100 one way to Bodrum), which is ok given the fantastic spa and sports facilities at the property. However they know they have you, and the price of food and drink is truly eye-watering. $50 for a single lamb kebab - a humble snack that I’m pretty sure most people can get elsewhere for the equivalent of about 50 cents. Maybe this is why people go on all-inclusive packages in Turkey.

  Pure Luxury with Exceptional Personalised Service

  30 Apr 2026

  I am enjoying an exceptional stay at Six Senses near Bodrum - from the moment we arrived to seamless valet parking and a truly beautiful room, everything felt like pure luxury. The space was thoughtfully designed, spacious, and aligned with their strong sustainability ethos, which made the experience feel even more special.I was celebrating my birthday during our stay and was completely spoiled with thoughtful touches, including cake and prosecco - a lovely surprise that made it unforgettable.The facilities are outstanding: a world-class gym, padel courts, incredible breakfasts, and a selection of restaurants that consistently delivered both quality and atmosphere. Also you are assigned a GEM (Guest Experience Manager), who creates a WhatsApp group to handle anything you need - responsive, seamless, and genuinely helpful throughout.I couldn’t recommend it more highly. The only thing to note is that food and spa treatments are on the pricier side - but for the level of quality and experience, it’s not unexpected.

  Wonderful Six Senses experience

  27 Oct 2025

  We stayed for 4 nights late October and there are many reasons to recommend this hotel. It's a beautiful setting, with a low rise beautiful modern design built into the hillside, far away from anything, and didn't feel busy at any time. I get the impression this is something Six Senses works hard at. We had lovely weather which helps as the hotel has two main sandy beaches. Oddly the family beach is a walk away (and loads of kids stuff is provided). There are two pools that I saw with only a few sunbeds but since most people were at the beach it didn't bother me. Our room (5010) on the reception floor was gorgeous with a massive bathroom and massive windows. Separate dressing room area. There are lifts but different amenities are on each of the 5 floors. The gym is HUGE and really well equipped and it has a separate reformer Pilates studio, yoga studio, spin studio, and the largest spa in Europe. We had a massage each and I had a facial, both faultless. The relaxation area is lovely too and there are both separate women and unisex spa facilities. Staff are super helpful without being in your face. Everyone was kind and lovely. The only reason I've rated 4 star rather than 5 is the food. Just to be clear, the food quality was excellent and both breakfast and the beach restaurant were exceptional but I thought the dinner menus were poorly designed leading with one ingredient (we live in London and I realise many top restaurants currently do the same) and a couple of evenings I really didn't fancy anything based on the descriptions but the food was lovely when it arrived. As it's towards end of season a fair few ingredients / dishes / wines were not available (eg no edamame on the Asian menu). Overall a lovely experience. Can Göktaş, Genel Müdür at Six Senses Kaplankaya, responded to this review Dear Ms. Fiona,Thank you very much for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback about your recent stay with us at Six Senses Kaplankaya. It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed our serene setting, contemporary architecture, spacious accommodations, and the many wellness facilities we offer, from our extensive gym and studios to the spa, which we’re proud to be one of the largest in Europe.I am also very pleased that our hosts made you feel well cared for throughout your stay. Your kind words about their warmth and attentiveness are truly appreciated and will be shared with the team.While I’m delighted that you found the food quality excellent, your comments on the menu design are truly appreciated. Feedback like yours helps us continually refine our culinary offerings and ensure each dining experience feels both inspiring and memorable.Once again, thank you for your detailed review. It truly helps us continue improving the experience we provide. I hope we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another relaxing and rejuvenating stay on the Aegean coast.Sincerely,Can GöktaşGeneral Manager

  Six Senses Kaplankaya - Simply Sublime

  26 Oct 2025

  Our romantic getaway was beyond our expectations. From the initial outreach of the Guest Services team of Melis and Tugba to the level of care shown by the staff and the natural beauty of the Aegean coastline, this was a very special experience and one of the best vacations we had as a couple. I want to commend the GM, Mr. Can Goktas, for assembling such a strong team that anticipated our needs and more than delivered. The view from our ridge terrace room offered us amazing sunsets almost every day of our stay. The three beautiful beaches and the hiking trails along the coast were the highlight of our stay. As a shell collector, beachcombing was amazing in the variety of shells along the coastline. Something we noticed was the fresh air as we were surrounded by pine and olive trees all around. The builders did a wonderful job of keeping the vegetation that is natural to the surroundings. The spa is one of the largest we have visited and is well laid out with separate mens and womens area as well as a shared area where couples can meet up after separate treatments. The four restaurants we visited were all amazing in their own way, but the sunset view from Meze by the Sea was very special.All the staff were professional and customer service oriented including Ugur, Emel, Ozgur Bozkurt, Salih, and Marhabat at the spa and many others whose names I forget. There are some members of the staff who went above and beyond that deserve a special mention. Tolga Karagulle ensured an amazing dining experience every day of our stay, often bringing off the menu items to us, making great recommendations and explaining the ethos of the resort. Onur Aral was such a friendly face at Ortakoy beach. We enjoyed great conversation with him and he offered exceptional service greatly enhancing our experience. When he noticed my wife was not feeling great one day, he brought some tea and also washed some wild strawberries I had picked along the coastline for her. Anil, the buggy driver, took us to the top of the resort at our request, allowing us to see the beautiful residences as well as an amazing sunset from the highest elevation. He was so kind and we asked for him specifically when we needed a ride. Irfan gave us a tour of the Earth Lab, allowing us to pick some tomatoes off the vine and explained the growing seasons to us.We are not usually repeat visitors to resorts as there are so many unique and beautiful places to visit around the world; however, Six Senses Kaplankaya might be the exception. I have already started looking at dates for next year. It really is that special. Can Göktaş, Genel Müdür at Six Senses Kaplankaya, responded to this review Dear Mr. Ahmet,What an absolute pleasure it was to read your wonderful review. Thank you for taking the time to share such heartfelt reflections about your stay with us at Six Senses Kaplankaya.It fills me with pride to know that your romantic getaway turned into such a memorable experience, exceeding your expectations in every way. Your kind words about the natural beauty of our Aegean coastline, the tranquility of the surroundings, and the care and attention shown by our team truly mean a great deal to all of us.I am especially delighted that Melis and Tuğba from Guest Services made you feel welcome from the very beginning, and that many of our colleagues, including Tolga, Onur, Anıl, İrfan, Uğur, Emel, Özgür, Salih, and Makhabbat, contributed to creating lasting memories for you both. They will be thrilled to know their genuine hospitality and attention to detail made such a positive impression.Your appreciation of our spa, restaurants, and the way our architecture blends harmoniously with the natural landscape is deeply valued. We are passionate about preserving the authentic beauty of our surroundings while creating meaningful experiences that bring guests closer to nature. It’s wonderful to know that you felt this throughout your stay.It is especially rewarding to hear that, despite being explorers who usually seek out new destinations, you are already considering returning to Kaplankaya. There is no greater compliment for us.On behalf of the entire team, thank you once again for your trust and kind words.
