The Guide Bodrum Magazine - Year 2019

In this issue

From its roots as a seasonal escape, Bodrum has grown into an year-round destination where keeping a hand on the pulse of new projects is now a full-time task. Unlike a few years ago when new openings used to mark the beginning of the summer season, they now appear in winter to test the local market and gain the trust of those who reside in the area.

Some of these new(ish) locations seem to be predestined to become the new talk of the town: Cevat Yıldırım’s İxir bar, where former Istanbulites flock to relive their city memories; 2019's new favorite spot for locals to socialize—Bodrum Müdavim; and well-known international brand Buddha-Bar, that recently opened at Caresse. Although each one of them is distinctive on its own terms, they captivate the collective attention and overall interest in the new.

Bodrum is expecting heavy crowds this season, and hotels started filling up as early as the first week of April with visitors from around the world. This gave us the opportunity to share a variety of interests that are reflected in the pages of this issue.

Assuming that you might be looking for some basic info from previous editions, and trying to avoid repetitions at the same time, we also made it easier for you to find whatever you need by sharing relevant online content using QR codes on the following pages.
