Casa dell'Arte

Casa dell'Arte sits in the quiet fishing village of Torba.

Inspired by the zodiac, each of the 12 suites is themed according to its designated star sign. ‘Libra’ has a twinkling night sky for a ceiling; while ‘Sagittarius’ and ‘Scorpio’ are spread over two floors with cosy corners to retreat to. They all feature artwork from the owner's private collection, and the Sea View Suites have terraces overlooking the sea. There’s also an expansive private villa for even more exclusivity.

Dine at the delightful restaurant, which is down on the sand, with the calm sea lapping close by. Sumptuous seafood and Turkish meze is the order of the day, washed down with wine or a little local raki.

There are gorgeous, vibrant gardens, with a serene pool, and inside, you’ll find a wine cellar and a cinema, as well as a spa and gym. As an alternative to the private pool, you can also make the most of the private beach and jetty.

When you’re not admiring the artwork or relaxing in the pool, you’ll be exploring the town of Bodrum, just down the road from Torba. Dip into the cool cafes and clubs along the harbour, and pick up a couple of Turkish artisan products from the market in the centre of town, or, set sail on a sleek yacht for a scenic trip before settling down to a gourmet dinner at one of the fabulous restaurants.
