Bonjuk Bay is a beach‑front retreat and creative community on the Southern Aegean coast of Turkey, located in a private, secluded bay near Marmaris. It’s designed as a place where guests can relax in nature, connect with a like‑minded community, and enjoy a slower, more mindful way of life. Set on 25,000 m² of land with about 200 m of private beach framed by forest and palm trees. Declared a nature reserve, important for conservation — including as a mating ground for protected sandbar sharks.
Very secluded and tranquil, yet around 30 min from Marmaris and Akyaka and about 1 hour from Dalaman Airport.
Bonjuk Bay embraces a nature‑centric yet comfortable vibe with options like:
Safari suite tents with private decks and hot tub
Stone house suites and sea front rooms
Various glamping tents and simple bungalows
Space for own tents or caravans
Community & Experience
This isn’t a traditional luxury resort — it’s more of a community retreat focused on:
Barefoot luxury and nature immersion
Celebrating life with creative and conscious people
Workshops, yoga, sound healing, music events, and festivals (especially in summer)
Eating fresh and mostly organic food grown on‑site (vegetable gardens, fruit trees, goats, chickens).
The ethos encourages authenticity, connection, and living in harmony with nature — no TV or typical media distractions.
Bonjuk Bay operates April through October and often hosts gatherings, creative events, and celebrations where community members come together.
Practical Info
Reservations are done via their website, and it’s possible to rent the whole place for private retreats or events.
It’s suited for those who enjoy a laid‑back, community‑driven, nature‑oriented environment rather than a typical luxury resort
