What to expect from the new Hillside Resort Bodrum

A new name is arriving on the Bodrum Peninsula for summer 2027. Opening in April, Hillside Resort Bodrum brings the Hillside approach to Gündoğan Bay, with sweeping Aegean views, a private beach, generous outdoor spaces, and plenty of ways to spend the day. For guests visiting in its first season, there’s also the excitement of being among the first to experience it.

What to expect from the new Hillside Resort Bodrum

Choose the stay that suits you

One of the appealing things about Hillside Resort Bodrum is that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach to staying here. The resort’s 308 rooms, residences, and villas are spread across the resort, allowing couples, families, and groups of friends to find a space that feels right for them. Stay in the main hotel and restaurants and pools are conveniently close, while Club Rooms offer terraces and a little more seclusion among the greenery. Residences give families and longer-stay guests more room to settle in, and the villas take things further with generous indoor-outdoor living and their own private pools. Wherever you choose, the design makes the most of the resort’s Aegean setting and its connection to the outdoors.

Make the day your own

Some days may revolve around the beach, with its long deck of loungers and nearby beach bar; on others, you might drift between the resort’s six heated pools, including the central Infinity Pool. If you’re in the mood to be active, the Sports Hub makes it easy to fit in a workout, a fitness class, or a friendly match on the padel courts. If you’re looking for a quiet afternoon, Sanda Pebble Spa offers a hammam, sauna, salt room, and treatment rooms, while open-air Sanda Mare Spa pairs massages with views across the sea. If you want to get out and about, you’re close to all the best sights. Yalıkavak Marina and Türkbükü are within easy reach for an afternoon or evening out, while Bodrum town offers everything from its castle and waterfront to restaurants and boutiques.

Designed with the whole family in mind

Families won’t have to plan every day around keeping everyone entertained. Different spaces have been created for different age groups, from Babyside for little ones to Kidside and the Activity Centre for older children and teenagers.

That could mean water play and creative activities for younger guests while older children try DJ workshops, games, or tournaments. The sea-facing Art House adds another dimension, with workshops offering something different from the pools and sports facilities. The result is plenty of opportunity to spend time together, but enough choice for everyone to find something they genuinely enjoy.

Stay for lunch, linger for sunset

Food is intended to be part of the experience rather than simply something fitted around the rest of the day. Hillside’s Festival of Food concept comes to the Main Restaurant, while Pasha brings three à la carte restaurants together around its central bar, creating a natural place to gather as afternoon turns into evening.
