An oasis of beauty, health and good rest – the LykiaWorld Ölüdeniz hotel – is hidden in the green of the protected park in a cozy bay at the foot of Mount Babadaglair. This Turkish corner with its purest sea, a huge amount of greenery and excellent spa programs truly deserves the name of a “corner of paradise”. The editor of WDay.ru has visited this unforgettable place and shares his impressions.
“Awesome … No, this is incredibly awesome,” I thought, glancing around the place where I was to spend the next week. Once you get to a hotel at the very edge of the Aegean Sea, you will leave a piece of your heart there. And you, like me, will want to return there from year to year.
Discoveries begin with the first step through the hotel grounds. Architecture Is a harmonious fusion of Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and Greek motives with modern style. Arriving, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of forms of settlement.
For those who go on holiday alone or in couples, the Residence is ideal. It is a truly perfect combination of the comfort of a hotel and the capabilities of a magnificent resort. The main building of the Residence has 266 rooms with balcony or terrace, bathroom, satellite TV, internet and air conditioning.

And when I discovered that the specialists of the SPA-center were working on the world-famous French cosmetics ALGOTHERM, my delight knew no bounds. Indeed, ALGOTHERM has been working on the marine cosmetology market for 45 years, creating special care protocols, presenting the latest ingredients of the modern generation and complex procedures, conducting testing and expert evaluation of the compositions at the Paris Institute for Biological Research.
Second birth
I was amazed by the abundance of special programs at the Monolia SPA center. Their names alone cause an irresistible desire to try everything: Balinese massage, Thai massage, stone therapy, Indian head massage, Shiatsu, Abhyanga, Shiro-dhara. I especially remember the Balinese massage, which is done by a girl specially discharged for this reason straight from Bali. The massage is based on a different combination of stretching and smoothing the skin with pressure from the palms and thumbs. The purpose of the procedure is to relieve tension and stress, improve blood circulation and calm the spirit. On the island of Bali, this massage is done at sunset, when there are no insects yet, the daytime heat has already subsided, and the sea has not had time to cool down; after such a massage, they dive into the warm sea. The combination of touch and the application of a milk-based aromatic mixture gives it a special charm.
- Massage rooms with a view of the sea and the coniferous forest in the open air, tents for oriental massages deserve special mention.
I was leaving, having experienced a rebirth under the canopy of coniferous trees and with the help of the magic hands of massage therapists and cosmetologists of the Monolia SPA center. All the way home, only one thought revolved in my head: “To have time to book a bungalow in for the next vacation “. Because everyone who has ever been to this paradise leaves to return.
