Sedative Boutique & Spa

The hotel was a lovely, quiet place to unwind, with a great view and friendly service. Manager Okay was especially helpful during our stay. Bodrum is about a 15-minute drive away, so renting a car makes sense if you want more to do. My only small suggestion is that the gym could use better maintenance. Otherwise, a wonderful peaceful getaway.

We had an unforgettable honeymoon at Sarpedor Hotel, staying for 8 days among all the flowers and greenery. It felt peaceful and natural, and the place never seemed overcrowded. There were always loungers free, and the pool and facilities were very clean. The grounds aren’t huge, but there’s plenty to do and it seems suited to couples, families, and older guests. Meals and drinks were available throughout the day, and the food was amazing. The team made the stay special. Effe, Ramazan, and the pool bar crew brought great energy and made excellent cocktails. Mustafa at the beach was helpful with information, while Adem and Baris made every meal nicer. Reception was staffed around the clock, our room was kept spotless by housekeeping, and everyone worked together professionally. We had fun with parasailing, jet skis, and airstream, and staff can tell you about the water activities nearby. There’s also table tennis on the way to the beach, and we enjoyed the live music one evening. We think Sarpedor is worth the price, maybe even more. Best holiday we’ve had, and we’d love to return.

The steep paths and many steps could be difficult for anyone with accessibility needs, though the hotel is upfront about that. The different levels also create lovely scenery, with plenty of quiet spots and beautiful views. During my one-week all-inclusive stay in a Superior room, the small size of the property, around 25 rooms, meant service stayed efficient and the whole experience felt like a private boutique break. The staff were warm and attentive, especially Ayperi, who went out of her way to make us comfortable. The public spaces were clean and thoughtfully arranged. Health precautions were handled well: tables and rails were cleaned several times daily, beach towels came wrapped in fresh plastic, sanitiser was available everywhere, and staff were screened and tested regularly. Ordering from menus was a nice change. The food was lovely with a good range, especially the barbecue, and there were excellent cocktails and live music a few times each week. Transfers around the peninsula were comfortable, efficient, and reasonably priced. I did see some negative reviews, but the guests who seemed to complain about everything stood out during our stay.

In June 2022, three of us came to Sarpedor to slow down, and we knew in the first few minutes it was a good choice. We spent 10 days there, relaxing, eating well, and even getting massages at the spa. The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable, and the à la carte menu was delicious. We usually began at the beach bar and later moved to the pool. The staff remembered what we liked to drink at both spots and sometimes had it ready before we ordered. Everyone we got to know was friendly and attentive, and the music and staff made the whole place feel welcoming. You can enjoy the view from nearly everywhere. If you’re after a resort with lots for kids, this probably isn’t it. But for a restful few days with good food and a chance to recharge, it was just right.
