Ennismore confirmed the upcoming opening of Mondrian Bodrum, its inaugural hotel in Türkiye, scheduled for November 2026 on the country’s Aegean coast. This launch extends Ennismore’s footprint in Europe and the Mediterranean by introducing the Mondrian brand to the Turkish market.
The project involves transforming an existing resort in the Bodrum area into an adults-only destination featuring a total of 108 rooms, suites, and villas. The property aims to deliver an upscale hospitality experience tailored for a culturally curious international clientele.
Design and Creative Direction
Ennismore’s in-house creative studio, AIME Studios, oversees the redesign and creative vision of Mondrian Bodrum. The design draws inspiration
from the cultural heritage and natural environment of the Turkish Aegean coastline, creating a setting that integrates local architectural elements with the resort’s surroundings.
Dining and Nightlife Venues
The resort will house five distinct food and beverage venues. Paris Society brings Mimi Kakushi, its Japanese dining brand, to Türkiye for the first time. Designed by Pirajean Lees, Mimi Kakushi includes a two-level space with a sushi counter and cocktail bar. Kyma Beach Club will offer Greek-inspired cuisine in a waterfront location, while SIPS is planned as a late-night cocktail venue.
Another key venue, House of Ruins, combines an all-day restaurant, lounge, cocktail bar, and
private dining areas alongside spaces for art exhibitions and cultural events. Paris Society Consulting will also lead the redevelopment of Aloha Bakery with a fresh approach to a French bakery concept.
Leisure and Wellness Facilities
The resort’s amenities include a swimming pool, multiple outdoor terraces, a redesigned beach club, a private pier, and water sports facilities. The wellness area will span approximately 400 square meters and incorporate a spa with treatment rooms, a traditional Turkish hammam, a sauna, a gym, and a movement studio.
Partnerships and Strategic Development
The project is a joint venture between Ennismore and the local family-owned Cactus Group, which has invested in hospitality ventures
across Bodrum. Servotel consultancy facilitated this partnership and the collaboration with food and beverage operators. The development builds on Cactus Group’s legacy through Ruins Bodrum, a social club inspired by the region’s vernacular architecture.
According to the involved companies, Mondrian Bodrum will blend accommodation, dining, cultural programming, and entertainment into an integrated lifestyle destination. The resort is positioned to appeal to an international audience attracted to Bodrum’s lifestyle and cultural offerings.
Industry Context and Ennismore Portfolio Expansion
Mondrian Bodrum is part of Mondrian’s broader international expansion which includes properties in Cannes, Bordeaux, Ibiza, Asia, the Middle East, Australia, and the Americas. Ennismore is simultaneously developing a
230-room Hoxton hotel in Dubai, further enlarging its portfolio of lifestyle hotels through collaborations with regional partners.
