Glamping in Turkey: 10 Secret Spots
1. Perdue, Faralya
We roll into Perdue and the first thing that hits is the citrus—sharp, sweet, and wildly unfair to every city we’ve ever lived in. Then the sunset starts doing its dramatic thing over Faralya, and suddenly you’re not “checking in,” you’re escaping. This is glamping for people who want nature and a proper bed (because yes, we can love the outdoors without suffering for it).
Perdue keeps it intimate with just 11 glamping tents and houses, so it feels less like a resort and more like your clever friend’s secret hideout above the sea. The vibe is: slow mornings, golden evenings, and the kind of quiet where your brain finally stops buffering. You can unplug completely, soak up the views, and still enjoy the comfort level that makes you smug about your life choices.

2. Longosphere, İğneada
If you’ve ever wanted to camp inside a nature documentary (minus the mosquitoes winning), Longosphere is your moment. This is often called Turkey’s largest glamping destination, tucked into a landscape that’s basically showing off: coastline, lakes, and those dreamy floodplain forests that make you whisper “okay… wow” without meaning to.
We’re talking Longoz Forests National Park territory—where the scenery is so layered it feels like someone designed it for maximum wandering. South of the park, you’ll find Saka Lake, Deniz Lake, Hamam Gülü, Pedina Lake, and Mert Lake, all wrapped in reeds and those lush floodplain forests. Head north and you’ve got Erikli Lake and more of that marshy-green magic that makes every walk feel like a mini expedition.
And if you’re the type who can’t sit still (we see you), there’s a whole buffet of nearby day-trip temptations: Dupnisa Cave, St. Nicholas Monastery, Mahya Mountain, Hell Waterfalls, Hamam Lake, Hızırbey Mosque, Vize Little Hagia Sophia, Sislioba Castle, Volçan Bridge over Rezve Stream, Demirköy Foundry, the French Lighthouse, Beüendik Village, and Stair Waterfalls. Basically: pack shoes you can trust.
3. Bonjuk Bay, Gökova
Bonjuk Bay is the kind of place that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled into someone’s carefully guarded dream. It sits by the Aegean Sea, gorgeous and a little mysterious—and it doesn’t do the “book instantly and forget about it” thing. Instead, you submit a request form, and yes, you may even need a reference. Exclusive? Slightly. Worth it? If you like your vacations peaceful, curated, and nature-forward—absolutely.
Once you’re in, you’ll get a set of house rules. Don’t panic. It’s not a joy-kill list—it’s the reason the vibe stays calm and everyone behaves like grown-ups who came here to breathe. You can pick your stay style: lotus tent, stone house, bungalow, or safari tent (aka: choose your own adventure, but make it aesthetic).
Food is part of the ritual: they literally ring a gong when it’s time to eat (yes, really), and you sit down to fresh meals made from organic ingredients grown right in their garden. Add in activities like yoga, diving, forest running, and cycling tours, and you’ve got a place that’s less “holiday resort” and more “reset your whole nervous system.” We come here to slow down, and to reconnect with nature in the best possible way.
4. Kocabahce Glamping, Bozburun
Kocabahce is what happens when “hidden paradise” stops being a cliché and starts being a place you can actually sleep in. We’re in Dirsekbükü Bay, Bozburun—surrounded by nature, water, and the kind of quiet that makes you realize your phone has been bossing you around for years.
Here’s the twist: you can only reach it by sea. No roads, no casual pop-ins, no bus dropping off a crowd. Just you, the bay, and a sense that you’ve done something impressively remote (without having to pitch your own tent like a hero). Activities are plentiful if you want them—trekking, fishing, canoeing, yoga, massage, table tennis—plus workshops, trainings, and full-on yoga camps if your body is begging for a reset.
Food is not an afterthought. You can wander through orchards and end up at tables stacked with fresh, organic goodness—straight from the gardens and the sea. It’s the kind of eating that makes you feel healthier just by association.
For sleeping, you’ve got options: luxury glamping tents, lotus tents, spacious camping tents, scout tents, suite bungalows, and standard bungalows. Translation: you can go rustic-ish or fully comfy, but either way you’ll fall asleep to nature doing its nightly soundtrack.
5. Kozluyalı Glamping, Ayvacık
Let’s set the scene: a 2,500-year-old settlement on the slopes of the Kaz Mountains, the Gulf of Edremit glittering below, and Lesbos Island hanging out across the water like it’s casually photobombing your holiday. That’s Kozlu village. And just outside it sits Kozluyalı Glamping, on a 5-decare patch of land where the Aegean vibe is basically guaranteed.
This is the sweet spot if you want a nature holiday that’s comfortable and sea-close. You’ll stay in Pumpkin and Pyramid tent rooms tucked into olive groves that roll down toward the shore. Waking up here—especially at sunrise—feels like someone pressed “refresh” on your entire brain. The view over the calm Assos Sea is the kind of memory you’ll drag out later when life gets loud.
6. Mona Glamping Caravan Suites, Seferihisar
Mona is boutique glamping with personality—the kind of place where you can tell someone actually cared about how it feels to arrive. We’ve got five caravans with distinct styles (Country, Rustic, Classy, Retro, Hygge), plus three glamping tents and one Tiny House. Translation: whatever your travel mood is, there’s a cozy version of it waiting here.
But Mona isn’t just a “sleep and leave” situation. It’s a whole gentle-life setup: guided hikes, wine tasting tours, open-air cinema by the campfire, and bicycle rides where you’ll swear you can hear the birds and crickets performing just for you. It’s calm, it’s charming, and it’s dangerously good at convincing you to stay one more night.

7. Adaperest Bozcaada, Bozcaada
Adaperest isn’t just a place name—it’s a tiny, real-life dream built by Haluk and Merve Yavuzer, who live on Bozcaada and decided to share their version of slow island living. The result? A charming caravan set in a peaceful garden (aka: the kind of setting that makes your stress levels drop immediately).
This single-room caravan is rentable in both summer and winter, which is honestly rare and wonderful. It’s private, simple in the best way, and surrounded by birdsong and the soft scent of thyme floating through the air like a welcome drink. If you’re craving a quiet, organic holiday in nature—and still want to be only 4 km from the island center—this is your spot.
8. Chakra Beach, Kabak Bay
Chakra Beach is a calm little oasis just 100 meters from Kabak Bay’s coastline—close enough that you’ll hear the sea doing its soothing thing while you’re still deciding whether you’re a “morning person” (spoiler: here, you might become one).
You stay in thoughtfully designed tree houses, surrounded by nature that’s genuinely serene—not “busy resort pretending to be eco.” There’s an à la carte restaurant in the garden serving standout plates from Turkish cuisine, and the soundtrack is all birds, crickets, and waves. No DJ. No pool animation. Just peace.
And if your soul needs a little extra care, there are dedicated yoga areas plus a well-stocked market for essentials. This is where we come to unwind properly, to breathe like we mean it, and to let Kabak Bay do what it does best: remind you that nature is the original luxury.

9. Club Amazon Bördübet, Hisarönü
Club Amazon sits deep in fragrant pine forest in the Bördübet region of the Datça Peninsula, near Marmaris—and it’s the sort of place that makes us say, “Okay, this is why we travel.” It’s green, it’s wild, it’s blissfully tucked away… and still close enough to the beach that you don’t need a full expedition plan.
The sea is just 500 meters away. You can get there by paddling a canoe along the stream (main character energy), or by taking a gentle five-minute walk through nature. Accommodation comes in many flavors: boutique vans, terraces, stone rooms, mini bungalows, plus playful options like cube rooms, gypsy caravans, and bonibon rooms shaped like glamping cars. In other words: you can keep it classic, or you can lean into whimsy.
Days here are for forest walks, canoe rides, bike trips around the enchanting Gökova area, and boat outings to untouched bays that look like they were created to humble your camera roll. Don’t skip sunset over the 7 islands—the whole basin opens up and it’s almost rude how beautiful it is.
At night, we head to “The End,” a hill with almost no light pollution, sip wine, listen to the waves, and stare straight into the Milky Way like we’ve just discovered the universe (again). It’s quiet, it’s cinematic, and it’s a reminder that sometimes the best luxury is simply… darkness and stars.

10. Campo Portakal, Çıralı
Campo Portakal is what we recommend when you want glamping to feel intentional—not just “a tent with a fancy price tag.” They call it Eco Glamping, and the whole place leans into calm, comfort, and that quiet kind of luxury where nothing is trying too hard.
You’re surrounded by the Çıralı mountains and set inside a 2200-square-meter garden full of organic orange trees, which is both charming and slightly addictive (you’ll start sniffing the air like it’s a hobby). Accommodation is a small, curated lineup: two spacious tents, a Safari tent, a Bedouin tent, and a Bell tent—each designed for people who like nature, but also like sleeping well.
It’s also brilliantly placed for exploring: close to Chimaera Mountain for hiking, right on the Lycian Way, and near a 3.5-kilometer beach that leads toward the ancient city of Olympos. So you can do lazy beach days, or you can turn your stay into a proper adventure (or, ideally, both—because balance).
Activities cover the full “we’re outdoorsy, but make it gentle” spectrum: hiking, bike rentals, canoeing, safaris, yoga sessions, and boat trips to explore hidden bays. If you want a nature getaway that feels restorative rather than chaotic, Campo Portakal is it.
