A Day in Urla: Beneath the Olive Trees

As the first light of morning filters through the olive trees, a new day begins in Urla. And there’s no better way to start it than with a local breakfast at Urla Köstem Müze Otel—featuring handmade bread, village cheeses, and olives from nearby producers, all served to the sound of birdsong.

After breakfast, take a step into history at Köstem Olive Oil Museum, one of the largest of its kind in the world. From ancient stone presses to modern machinery, the museum offers an enlightening and immersive journey through the evolution of olive oil.

By midday, find shade in the garden, relax in a hammock, and lose yourself in a book—or your thoughts. Feeling inspired? Join a creative session in the hotel’s art studio. Or simply do nothing and enjoy the silence.

As evening approaches, Urla’s legendary sunset paints the sky. At the hotel’s restaurant, local dishes prepared with olive oil offer a perfect culinary finale. A gentle breeze, the rustle of olive branches, and shared moments at an elegant table turn the evening into a memory.

A day at Urla Köstem Müze Otel is more than just a holiday—it’s an experience that leaves a lasting impression on both your soul and your senses.
