Maxx Royal Bodrum brings together the world’s most distinguished restaurants, converging to create Bodrum’s most exhilarating culinary destination.
At the pinnacle of this offering stands Spago by Wolfgang Puck, where the legendary chef’s Californian-Asian fusion finds a breezy Bodrum expression. Guests can dine al fresco in the effortless glamour of the terrace, sharing signature “Family & Friends” lunches or lingering over dishes paired with rare wines and handcrafted cocktails.

As founder Joey Ghazal puts it, it is a place for “those who see every moment as a reason to celebrate.” The delectable menu includes shellfish, seafood, prime meats, creative vegan dishes and high-end sharing options.
