The Aegean coast of Turkey is renowned for its turquoise waters, crystal-clear air, mild climate, and breathtaking landscapes. Adding to its allure is the fact that most visitors here are from Europe, providing a more serene and exclusive atmosphere. Nestled in the charming town of Didim, on the picturesque Delice Peninsula, lies the newly opened Anda Barut Collection, whose crown jewel is the exquisite Bayou Villas—14 luxurious private retreats.

Stretching along a kilometre of lush coastal promenade, the resort is surrounded by olive trees, citrus groves, palms, and whimsical cacti. Impeccably manicured lawns add to the sense of harmony and tranquillity. However, the true treasure of Bayou Villas lies in its unparalleled privacy. Forget noisy neighbours and crowded pools—here, you can bask in the sun on your private terrace or lose yourself in a good book under the shade of a lush garden.

The villas, ranging in size from 145 to 240 square metres, are thoughtfully designed to ensure seclusion and comfort. Each features a private heated pool, walls crafted from local stone, and refined interiors where wood and marble create an atmosphere of understated luxury. The one-bedroom villas are an oasis of relaxation, reserved exclusively for adults. Even the nearby a la carte restaurant, Mansion, follows a 16+ concept. For families, the resort offers spacious three-bedroom villas located closer to the children’s pools and water park, ensuring fun for all ages.



Guests are treated like VIPs, with airport transfers and priority reservations at six a la carte restaurants offering exquisite culinary delights from around the globe.  

The best way to explore a country is through its cuisine, and at the Kara restaurant, you’ll experience Turkish flavours with a modern twist. Savour succulent charcoal-grilled meats, oven-roasted vegetables prepared using traditional recipes, and, of course, the iconic gözleme—flavourful stuffed flatbreads.

For those seeking adventure, the area surrounding the resort is rich in ancient treasures. Just 9 kilometres away, you’ll find the ancient city of Didyma, home to the Temple of Apollo, a site vying for UNESCO World Heritage status. Nearby, Lake Bafa offers stunning views and the ruins of Heraclea on Latmus, a fascinating window into history.

Whether you’re looking for relaxation, culinary delights, or cultural exploration, Anda Barut Collection and its Bayou Villas promise an unforgettable experience on Turkey’s Aegean coast.
