 | Casa Dell’Arte: A House Of Art The town of Bodrum, with its beautiful nature and beaches reminiscent of Sardinia has long been proudly hailed by natives as the St. Tropez of Turkey. The town boasts stylish boutique hotels, restaurants, a once notorious nightlife, and plenty of luxurious yachts and champagne. But the little fishermen's village of Torba, despite its proximity to the city center, has never been part of all that jazz. Torba and its gorgeous sunsets have been home to artists and their families for many years. Now this little fishermen's village has a new face with the arrival of Casa Dell’Arte, a hotel dedicated to art encounters and its sister Casa Dell’Arte Village which welcomes families with a passion for art. The first and only art hotel of Turkey, Casa Dell’Arte was established in 2007 by leading art collectors Fatos and Yunus Buyukkusoglu, who fell in love with Torba and established their home there with the dream of one day retiring there altogether.(view more...) |
