Voyage Bodrum is an upscale all-inclusive property located on Bardakci Bay about 10 minutes from the city center. Along with a private beach, the hotel offers a large outdoor pool overlooking the sea. A buffet restaurant serves all meals, while the a la carte restaurant serves international cuisine. The property also has three bars and a patisserie. The 150 guest rooms are modern and bright and have minibars, flat-screen TVs, and some sea-view balconies. The property is situated on an incline, so guests with mobility issues might find this an inconvenience -- there are elevators. The adult-only property offers better service than many other nearby properties, but rates also tend to be higher. Swissotel Resort Bodrum Beach allows children and has similar rates and features, but is farther away from the city center.
Scene
All-white decor and romantic atmosphere by the sea
With its white facade and bright white interiors, the Voyage Bodrum has a classic local style. The hotel entrance is uphill from the beach, so guests have to walk up stairs or use the elevators to get to the property. This also affords the property scenic views of the water, including from a spacious stone sunbathing terrace with wooden furniture shaded by thatched umbrellas. The lobby, decorated with white furniture and bright-blue accents, is flooded with natural light and features a small bar serving coffees and drinks. Views of the water are visible from the lobby through sheer white curtains, while green lawns landscaped with palm trees and bright flowers face the sea as well, all adding to the romantic atmosphere. There are no guests under age 16 allowed, so the hotel is quiet and relaxing, and a good choice for couples.
Location
On Bardakci Bay, 10 minutes from center of Bodrum
The hotel is situated on Bardakci Bay, slightly downhill from the beach. A water taxi is available from the beach to the city center of Bodrum with restaurants and bars; alternatively, it’s a 10-minute drive away. There’s not much in the immediate area around the hotel except for other resorts and hotels, and a restaurant. Historic sights and cultural attractions are also within a short drive. Bodrum Castle and Zeki Muren Arts Museum are 15 minutes’ drive from the hotel. Myndos Gate is a five-minute trip and Mausoleum at Halicarnassus is seven minutes away by car. Milas–Bodrum Airport is about a 40-minute drive.
Rooms
Bright and modern, some with balconies and lovely sea views
Rooms at Voyage Hotel Bodrum are bright and clean with distinctive modern decor. There are whitewashed stone walls and wood floors, and beds are accented with teal pillows and bedspreads. Stylish bedside cabinets are finished in natural wood and have attached reading lights. Some rooms also have mirrored walls beside beds. Standard amenities include air-conditioning as well as minibars, safes, free Wi-Fi, and flat-screen TVs. One-bedroom suites have separate living rooms with small couches; there are flat-screen TVs in the bedrooms and living rooms. Small modern bathrooms decorated in blue and green mosaic tile have stall showers, and hairdryers and toiletries are provided. Some rooms have windows facing a corridor, so privacy can be an issue when the curtains are open. Rooms are available with or without balconies, and with land or beautiful sea views.
Features
Sea views, a small beach, and a large pool
