Just noticed the Reges Cesme Luxury Collection showing up on the website as a future hotel in Turkey. Opening is set for April 2019. Anyone know anything about this? One of the pictures I found on the developer website shows a big W in front of the building so either it was planned as a W Hotel or it was wishful thinking on their part. From what I have been able to find it looks like a resort type option with a beach. We are looking at possibly visiting Istanbul and Bodrum next year and this would be a good addition if we indeed decide on Turkey for 2019.

Google search also turns up a contractors pictures of the site but I did not know if it was ok to post a link to this foursquare file.

Category 4.

"Curved around a natural, sand-lined cove bathed in sunshine for more than 300 days of the year, Reges is easily and quickly accessed by a modern highway from Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport and just 8km by ferry from the Greek Island of Chios.

Encapsulating the resort’s serene attitude, the 93 guestrooms and 11 suites, are all impressively spacious with panoramic sea views. Paying homage to Turkey’s gastronomic legacy, Reges’ two restaurants present International and Aegean flavors infused with a stylish al fresco atmosphere and live music. An unrivalled retreat, Spa Reges spans 1,400m2 of smooth, pared-back interiors. A menu of signature treatments is applied massage rooms and complemented by traditional Turkish Hammam, sauna and steam room"

This would be a great base for the nearly 2 hr drive to the Ephesus Romain ruins. Perhaps combined with the Caresse property closer to the Bodrum.

I just got back from this property and I agree with the above poster. It is a gem! I redeemed my 5N Cat 1-4 cert which will be expiring next month (Marriott was giving me 10K MR points in exchange lol). I will write a full report if anyone is interested but yes, Run before this property goes to Cat 6 and above. I stayed with my kids and drove everywhere (from Izmir to Ephusus, Pammukale, Ala�atı and in between).

Some pictures:
