Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum

We had a great experience at the resort. The service was excellent, the place is beautiful, and the rooms are very clean and well-designed. All the staff were friendly and professional — except for the front desk supervisor, who was not pleasant to deal with and gave us a negative impression at first. However, we later met the hotel’s head manager, and he completely turned things around. His attitude was extremely respectful, professional, and welcoming. He handled everything in the best way possible and made sure we were comfortable and satisfied. Because of that, we would definitely come back again and stay at this hotel. Their overall service is truly worth it, and the hospitality we received from the team — especially the head manager — was outstanding.

A truly exceptional experience from start to finish. Mandarin Oriental Bodrum is not just a hotel, it’s a sanctuary where every detail is thoughtfully curated to make you feel special. The location is breathtaking, the architecture blends perfectly with nature, and every corner of the property reflects understated luxury. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the staff. Warm, attentive, and always a step ahead — they made us feel genuinely cared for throughout our stay. From the front desk to the beach team, from the spa therapists to the restaurant staff, every interaction was filled with kindness and professionalism. Thank you for making our stay so memorable. We can’t wait to be back.

An unparalleled haven of luxury, Mandarin Oriental Bodrum effortlessly blends world-class service with the breathtaking beauty of the Aegean coast. Every detail, from the meticulously designed suites to the lush, serene surroundings, exudes elegance and sophistication. The staff’s warmth and attentiveness make you feel not just like a guest, but truly at home. Dining here is an extraordinary culinary journey, with each restaurant offering impeccable flavors and stunning views. Whether you seek complete relaxation or unforgettable experiences, this resort sets the gold standard for excellence. A true gem that exceeds expectations in every way

This hotel exceeded all our expectations. Located on a beautiful shore, the amenities are beautifully designed with designer stores and multiple world famous restaurants right on the property. The service was excellent all through out our stay, and our ambassador Burak made sure to attend to all out requests 24/7. |The beach was perfect with Alo towels on the chairs and the water was crystal clear so that we could see the fish swimming on the bottom.|Truly 10/10 experience

- another 1 week+ stay at MO Bodrum; outstanding high-end luxury. Have kept coming back year after year. |- High level of peace, excellent service across the board |- Highlight1: Akman is a tremendous ambassador; hard working, resourceful, thoughtful; he went above and beyond to deliver exceptional service. 10 out of 10. |- Highlight2: the spa therapist Bam is also exceptional. 10 out of 10. Perfection|- Highlight3: Zeynep of reservations is extraordinarily helpful, thoughtful, proactive, resourceful; wow. 10 out of 10. A joy to interact with. |- Highlight4: Guest experience manager Sevda is super; detailed, diligent, thoughtful, proactive; really impressive. 10 out of 10. |- Highlight5: Volkan and gym experience very well managed, every year so strong. Incredible expertise.|- Japanese restaurant has significantly improved. |- Semih from breakfast is really helpful, deserves special recognition. 10 out of 10. |- Therapist Seri at the spa also incredible capable and outstanding. |- Low point 1: Buggy service continues to be the weak link. Should not save on budget here. Saw multiple instances of guests arguing because of the unavailability of buggy service at blue beach etc; suggest hiring 2x to 3x the buggy drivers. |- Low point 2: Buggy driver Efe was horrible; incompetence, lazy, no idea what he was doing, untrained and just low level|- Low point 3: Ferdi Baba has terrible service and feels distinctively dishonest; multiple examples of major incompetent, they seem to consistently overcharge guests. Restaurant is not busy at all yet the servers all seem lazy and unable. Management also seems lost and not understanding of service standards. Ferdi Baba is a relative disaster; last year was the same. There is a distinct feeling of dishonesty at the restaurant. |- Given the high prices, hotel should be careful not to be too stingy on budget areas such as buggy service. |- Sauna and spa is outstanding and very well maintained; aerial yoga area is really solid. |- Vollkan is super good. But the gym is getting old. Maxx Royal and others have a much better gym. For example, MO Bodrum absolutely needs new indoor stationary bike; the current one is terrible/very old. The equipment at MO Istanbul is much better for example. The gym expansion is good but still, much of the equipment needs to be upgraded. MUST get a proper indoor stationary bike. Also, the free activities are not great. Maxx Royal is far better in this department (quality of gym and equipment and classes). |- Blue beach menu has improved. |- Additions that would significantly enhance experience: cold ice plunge (modern spas have this increasingly), hotel slippers are not of good quality and should be upgraded. The entrance area looked much better/more refined/aesthetic with the wood as compared to the new imposing MO fan sculpture. Before it looked peaceful; now it looks obstructed and not good.

We stayed around 4 days at this amazing hotel. Great hospitality by all the staff. Super friendly and so professional . The resort is huge , beach is crystal blue , some areas were closed at our time due to renovation. Pool was heated which was amazing as the weather was chill. Breakfast area has many varieties and they can do anything upon request ( literally anything 🤣🫣). Food is tasty and chefs do live baking and they were super friendly. Special thanks to Ms. Nupalda who did our check in process and gave us upgrade without asking, she was very nice and kind . Special thanks to our ambassador Mr Kaan , he was doing his best in making our stay memorable and he definitely succeeded 💓 . Lastly special thanks to the spa manager who was super nice and gave us complementary treatment. Definitely will come back during the season. They will not let you down 💓💓

A million times thank you 🤍 some special names that really made a difference Sedar the director of Food and Beverage, Kaan F&B supervisor at Sofra (his attention to detail and service have been exceptional) Kaan our personal assistant has been amazing and very supportive and helpful on everything we needed! And the girls at the kids club who made my little princess stay so memorable! Thanks everyone we loved it!

Welcome to the claustrophobic beach where boats park and block your view...! Food and service below average for what you are paying, there are so many other better choices in Bodrum.

Most beautiful Mandarin Oriental I have ever visited. Truly an amazing experience. The service is absolutely excellent, people a very friendly, the restaurants are great and top quality, the rooms are espectacular! I recommend this for couples who want to relax. The hotel is very private, and very romantic.

Stunning rooms and hotel... but for what you pay for the service stinks. You have to pay for wifi also, and everything else you eat/drink/or even touch you have to pay for.
