Sento by NUUP is a gourmet restaurant located in the NUUP nature-rich hotel and hospitality complex in Çamlı, near Marmaris (Muğla province). It’s known for its elegant outdoor setting, creative cuisine, and emphasis on sustainability and locally sourced ingredients.
Culinary Concept
The restaurant offers a “Fine Aegean Cuisine” concept with a modern, casual-fine dining feel rooted in Mediterranean and Turkish influences.
Many dishes are made from ingredients sourced from the surrounding region — including NUUP Farm gardens and local producers within a ~50 km radius — combining freshness, creativity, and local terroir.
Guests can often choose à la carte or sample tasting menus curated by the chef, offering a variety of land, sea, and field-inspired courses.
Setting and Atmosphere
Sento is set amid century-old oak trees and greenery, creating a tranquil, scenic dining environment that complements the restaurant’s focus on nature and sustainability.
It’s part of the broader NUUP experience, which includes the NUUP Hotel, NUUP Patisserie (for breakfast and pastries), a farm, and creative workshops — all designed to give guests a holistic and immersive stay.
Chef & Style
The kitchen has been led by experienced chefs, including those recognized by Gault&Millau (a respected international gastronomy guide), ensuring elevated cuisine with thoughtful plating and modern techniques.
Past special opening events even featured Michelin-trained Italian chefs collaborating on tasting menus, highlighting a blend of Turkish and Italian culinary traditions.
Guest Impressions
Visitors often praise the ambience, scenic setting, and creativity of the dishes.
Some feedback notes that while the experience is beautiful and refined, portion sizes and pricing can feel high compared with more casual local eateries.
When to Visit
Dinner service typically runs 18:00–23:00, making it primarily an evening destination for a special meal rather than a daytime café.
