Maxx Royal Bodrum partnered with Scorpios Beach Club, the renowned beach concept first conceived on the Greek island of Mykonos in 2014. Scorpios Bodrum is on the peninsula, right next to Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort and will welcome guests outside Greece for the first time. At Scorpios, guests experience cross-cultural experimentation in music and art together with a wellbeing program inside the dedicated Ritual Space. Alongside this, guests will be well nourished with Eastern Mediterranean cuisine. Scorpios Bodrum opens this June.

Younger guests will also experience an adventure of their own in the large Maxxi Land children’s club, set to be the largest space of its kind in Bodrum.

Older kids will have a program of activities to choose from, including land and sea sports, dance classes and performances, and themed art and science workshops with plenty of hands-on fun. Teenagers will also love the cinema and gaming rooms, and parents will be able to relax and enjoy some beach time or a meal for two knowing their little ones will be well looked after by the expert Maxx childcare team, a babysitting service available upon request.
