It’s hard to believe that this issue of The Guide Bodrum marks our 25th season among bougainvillea trees and historic stone houses. The town itself, as well as the entire peninsula, has changed so considerably in the past two decades that with every new magazine release it seems like we’re traveling to a completely different place.

This is a two-in-one magazine that includes The Guide Bodrum 2020 & The Guide Istanbul July/August.

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. Now that you have all the crucial information about Bodrum, both in English and in Turkish within your phone’s reach, we wish you memorable 2019 holidays filled with nothing but ease and effortlessness.

In this years edition of the The Guide Bodrum we blend the nostalgic past with the booming present of the getaway town. Giving the reader a full guide to the art of mezze, exploring Bodrum’s past through film, giving tips on essentials such as how to up the game of your Instagram, what books to read this summer while lazing by the sea, and of course all the new shops and restaurants to check out. The whole magazine doesn’t revolve around Bodrum though, we also journeyed over to Halkidhiki and came back with an extremely helpful guide for you to use when there. As you see, this year again, the magazine is packed with indispensable information for Bodrum. So make sure to pick one up and stay in the know!

Just like in previous years, Bodrum is determined to entertain us all in style! For the 2016 issue of The Guide Bodrum, we decided to look at this beloved retreat in a different light. You'll find pages filled with gulets and yachts, classic and world-famous restaurants, Greek Island side trips, and cultural and historical heritage.
