"Maldivian-style villas, three fine-dining restaurants, a pristine golden beach, and personal touches create a feeling of exclusivity that sets BIJAL far apart from the typical Turkish resort. Opening in March 2024, this hotly anticipated address comes courtesy of Gürock, the group behind JOALI Maldives and JOALI Being—two of the gold standard hotels in the Maldives—and despite its location near Antalya, the ‘capital of tourism,’ suitably feels as though you have been whisked away to a remote island paradise. There are just 19 villas on the property, ranging from one to four bedrooms, all with floor-to-ceiling windows, lush walled gardens, Balinese-style private pools, and ever-so-chic bathrooms, plus a personal butler to grant any additional needs. Mornings start with a kaleidoscopic spread of fresh fruit, salads, and charcuterie boards alongside a menu of classic hot dishes and Turkish delicacies before guests make a beeline for the lake-style pool, beachside cabanas, or fill days with water sports, pilates, padel tennis, and pottery.
