Overview
A luxurious retreat rich in space and serenity, press pause with an indulgent escape to Six Senses Kaplankaya. Refined and elegant villas and residences dot the landscape, with the laid back feeling of a meandering Mediterranean village, benefitting from three beautiful private beaches and two irresistible outdoor pools. Wellness – of mind, body and soul – is at the centre of each seriously spoiling stay – from the sprawling state of the art spa (the largest in any European hotel), to the three diverse and nourishing dining experiences, and a whole host of wholesome family fun, whether it’s cooking classes, watersports, or cultural experiences you’re seeking. Accommodation options include private pools, balconies and terraces, and fully appointed villas with up to 5 bedrooms; all are light, bright and beautiful with spectacular Aegean views

Best time to visit
Bodrum benefits from a gloriously long, sunny stretch beginning in April and lasting all the way through to November, though naturally, weather can be a little bit hit at miss at either end of the period. For the best balance in terms of weather and room rates, book an end of summer stay and revel in the September sun

Parent to Tiny Traveller aged 6 weeks
Six Senses Kaplankaya was the first trip we took with our eldest (she was only 6 weeks old). It was very baby and child friendly but still super chic. Thoughtfully, there's lots of comfortable, shaded, seating outside - perfect for lounging with the baby without getting cooked!
