D-Hotel Maris stands eyrie-like in one of the world's most dramatic locations. From the top of a soaring cliff, look down to a private bay, where you can bask, swim, ski and sail.

A Turkish luxury hotel of true 5-Star quality, D-Hotel Maris has reopened following a stunning transformation. It stands where the Mediterranean meets the Aegean, high on a hillside at the fringe of the Datca peninsula.

With spectacular and breathtaking views – small islands, luscious pine forests, volcanic mountain ranges, crystal clear waters – and five private beaches, D-Hotel Maris is the definitive luxury holiday hotel. This is a world of marble, bronze, wood, travertine and shimmering white Egyptian sand

Life at D-Hotel revolves around the sea, the fabulous, almost Caribbean-like beaches, and the superb facilities within the hotel itself.

The hotel boasts a well-heeled international clientele, and is also popular with holidaying Turks. Elixir clients will have the best of the new rooms, with balconies enjoying the most commanding views of the bay.
