Bodrum Palmiye

Wild cove on the Mediterranean

Located on a protected peninsula, and perched above the crystal-clear water of the Aegean sea, the Club Med Bodrum Palmiye Resort is a secluded jewel that glistens under the Turkish sun. Climb to the summit covered in umbrella pines, and admire the breathtaking view. Enjoy a plate of fresh ezme, a traditional Turkish dish. In the middle of the oleander shrubs, kick off a private exercise or spinning class. Barefoot, stroll around the wooden footbridge past rock pools and secret coves. Finally, carried by the wind, skip across the waves on a funboard in one of the best spots of the Mediterranean Sea.
