Türkiye’s historic cities, turquoise coastal waters, and bustling cultural scene have long offered travellers a destination that combines weekend breaks with beach escapes, delicious food as well as a rich heritage.

With its tourism offerings evolving all the time, a new wave of hotels and resorts are set to give visitors even more reason to return – or, like me, board a flight for the first time to visit.

Whether you’re looking for an ultra-luxurious stay or sleek new properties, here are some of the upcoming hotels in Türkiye to have on your radar.

Bulgari Resort & Mansions, Bodrum

Travellers will have to wait a while as this new luxury Bulgari property will not be opening until 2028. It will be located in Bodrum, in the heart of the picturesque Türkbükü coast, where yachts and marinas are a common sight.
