Frommer's Review

This Mediterranean villa, perched atop a hill high above Bodrum, was converted from a private home to an intimate and inviting real boutique hotel. And it's all "green" -- recycled rainwater in the pool, low-water plants, organic composting techniques, and unbleached linens. You'll be hard-pressed to choose among this boutique hotel's six uniquely styled rooms. I'm partial to the Çini Room (this is a single), with its wall of Turkish tiles, and the Bahçe Room, which benefits from its own private garden courtyard. But the jewel in the crown of what is essentially a high-end guesthouse is the sun deck, where an open cabana provides shade on one side of a smart reflecting pool, with breathtaking sunsets over Gümbet Bay.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; outdoor panoramic swimming pool; tour desk; fax service; wireless Internet; 24-hr. room service; laundry; dry cleaning

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
