Making plans for Eid? Mandarin Oriental in Turkey gives you plenty of reasons why Bodrum should be the next travel destination.

Being an already accessible destination from Dubai, Bodrum becomes perfect for Eid breaks and quick getaways. And getting to Bodrum just got easier with Air Arabia’s seasonal route, which starts from June 13.

With its reputation for long days on the beach and even longer nights on the dancefloor, Bodrum is perfect for party-loving couples and groups of friends. But, with its child-friendly beaches and endless activities, it’s also the perfect holiday spot for families. And, when checking into the recently re-opened Mandarin Oriental Bodrum, it’s unlikely that guests– or their kids – will want to leave this otherworldly haven.

Built in tiers above into the limestone mountains that ascend out of the Aegean Sea, the sleek and sophisticated Mandarin Oriental is all about understated elegance. With 86 rooms and 23 apartments, families will feel right at home in the latter. Stunning views, a sensational spa, a kid’s club and no less than 10 restaurants mean that everyone’s needs are well catered to.

Set amongst tangled trunks of aged olive trees, an olive beach slopes gently into the sea with its warm, inviting shallow waters. There’s a children's pool with fantastic play-equipment, a supervised playroom for toddlers and games room for older kids inside the main building. The hotel also offers babysitting services, meaning you and your other half can make the most of Bodrum’s legendary nightlife with an unforgettable date night.
