Ahãma, a luxury lifestyle resort on the Göcek coastline in Türkiye, is slated to open its doors in August 2024. Nestled on the white sand beaches of a secluded bay, cocooned by a 27-acre protected forest, Ahãma’s architecture was created to blend in with the natural surroundings and to foster a sense of being connected to nature. Pretty cool: The grounds have been created so guests can explore the entire property comfortably on bare feet.
Ahãma will open with 30 cabanas and a villa, alongside four dining spaces, an open-air yoga shala, a gym, a massage area and a pool. Each space has been designed by Istanbul’s Stüdyo AB Architecture, in collaboration with Conceptual and Creative Director Gabriela Palatchi.
Ahãma will also have five two-bedroom cabanas and 25 one-bedroom cabanas. The villa offers three bedrooms, an infinity pool and more. The resort will offer four dining options: Aurora, a relaxed clubhouse and bar; Solea, the beachside restaurant; Luna, the signature restaurant; and Alba, a street-food concept. Additionally, guest chefs, invited to experiment with new ideas, will regularly craft bespoke dining experiences for guests.
Led by Natalie Garih, the wellness program bridges holistic Anatolian practices with Eastern and Western approaches, and includes somatic breathwork, art therapy, transformative sound baths and more. Guests will also be encouraged to explore secluded meditation spots in the surrounding forest.
A multi-functional Sound Temple designed by Mexican architect and designer Hector Esrawe will be unveiled in 2025. The temple will serve as a venue for sound healing ceremonies. Additionally, a wellness center and spa, a Mezcal bar and concept store are set to open next year.
With its marinas, sheltered bays, and access to the Aegean and Mediterranean coastline, Göcek has long been a yachting destination of choice. The arrival of Ahãma, with its focus on slow living, wellness and gastronomy, will expand the appeal of the region. Traces of ancient Lycian civilization, such as rock tombs and monuments, can be found along the cliffs and bays of the mountainous coastline.
The nearest airport to Ahãma, Dalaman Airport, is 25 minutes away by car.
