WHY STAY
Tucked between olive groves and the turquoise Aegean, Six Senses Kaplankaya feels like a secluded modern acropolis—where regenerative wellness meets mythic landscapes. The architecture blends into the cliffs, revealing clean lines, natural textures, and uninterrupted sea views. Here, the ancient and contemporary meet: you’ll sleep in sleek, earth-toned suites, but just minutes away are 7,000-year-old ruins, sacred temples, and wild coastal trails.
This is not just a hotel—it’s a retreat designed for deep rest and meaningful transformation. The integrated wellness centre offers diagnostics, longevity programs, Ayurvedic therapies, and high-tech recovery tools, while the spa draws on local traditions like hammams and Anatolian scrubs. Whether you come to heal, to recharge, or simply to slow down, Kaplankaya invites you to reconnect—to your body, your breath, and the rhythm of the land.
WHY WANDER
Beyond the property’s beaches and thermal pools, the surrounding landscape offers timeless wonder. Follow trails through pine forests to Labraunda, a remote sanctuary dedicated to Zeus. Explore the nearby ruins of Didyma and Miletus, where ancient Greek temples and amphitheatres still whisper to the wind. Charter a gulet to sail hidden coves, snorkel in sapphire bays, or simply float along the rugged coast.
Kaplankaya also offers deep immersion into the region’s culture and cuisine. Visit nearby villages for olive oil tastings and Aegean cooking classes. Explore farmer’s markets bursting with figs, tomatoes, and wild herbs. Or take part in an Anatolian sound healing ritual—a multisensory journey into stillness and story.
INDULGE IN
The cuisine at Six Senses Kaplankaya is both indulgent and nourishing—locally sourced, Mediterranean in spirit, and deeply seasonal. Think heirloom tomatoes with local olive oil, just-caught sea bass grilled over coals, or herbal teas from the surrounding hills. Three restaurants offer everything from fine dining to beachside simplicity, with wellness-forward menus always an option.
GETTING THERE
Fly into Milas–Bodrum Airport, followed by a 50-minute scenic drive or a 30-minute speedboat transfer to the resort’s private marina. Helicopter arrivals are also possible.
WILD INITIATIVES
The resort is committed to zero waste, energy conservation, and regenerative farming practices. On-site gardens supply fresh produce for the kitchen, while greywater recycling and plastic-free operations support ecological balance. The hotel also supports local artisans and cultural preservation, offering guests a meaningful connection to both place and people.
