With the launch of Maison Revka and Gigi Rigolatto at Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum, Paris Society has put Bodrum on the luxury tourism map. These two gastronomic concepts pair French dining and Italian lifestyle with two of Turkey’s exclusive Mediterranean locations.

Maison Revka opened its doors on May 7, 2026, and Gigi Rigolatto opened on June 11, 2026. Both concepts were brought into Paris Society as a key part of their expansion of interpretive and destination dining concepts into luxury markets.

Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum is located on the Aegean and provides both outlets with highly coveted views along with private access to the beach. Both openings will assist in expanding the Bodrum tourism market to those seeking luxury dining, entertainment, and art.

Maison Revka Introduces French Elegance with Slavic Heritage to Bodrum

Maison Revka has entered the Turkish Riviera market as a refined dining destination that combines French culinary traditions with influences from Slavic culture. The concept, which already operates in destinations including Paris, Saint-Tropez and Dubai, has expanded its international footprint through its Bodrum debut.

The restaurant has been designed around the idea of a sophisticated coastal residence, creating an atmosphere that blends heritage, craftsmanship and contemporary luxury. Surrounded by landscaped gardens and overlooking the Aegean Sea, the venue offers guests an elegant environment for daytime dining, sunset gatherings and evening meals.

The culinary experience focuses on sharing-style dishes inspired by Slavic flavours and French techniques. The menu features premium ingredients and signature creations, including smoked salmon selections, caviar-based specialities and desserts such as pavlova.

A dedicated cocktail programme complements the dining experience, featuring signature drinks such as the Matrioshka alongside seasonal creations developed specifically for the Bodrum location.

For travellers visiting Bodrum, Maison Revka provides an opportunity to experience international fine dining while enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of the Turkish Riviera.

Gigi Rigolatto Brings Italian Riviera Lifestyle to Mandarin Oriental Bodrum

Gigi Rigolatto has returned to Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum after its seasonal debut in 2025, continuing the brand’s expansion as a luxury lifestyle destination. The concept is inspired by the relaxed elegance of Italian coastal living, offering a combination of dining, beach experiences and boutique shopping.

Positioned on a private beach area, Gigi Bodrum has been designed as an Italian beach house concept created by architect Hugo Toro. The design combines sophisticated details with a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere, reflecting the spirit of Mediterranean summer living.

The venue includes a restaurant overlooking the sea, a poolside Bellini Bar, private cabanas and beach areas designed for guests seeking a complete day-to-evening experience.

The menu focuses on traditional Italian cuisine prepared with high-quality ingredients. Signature dishes include Linguine alle Vongole, Arancini al Tartufo and Vitello Tonnato, while classic Italian desserts such as tiramisù and Gelato al Pistacchio complete the dining experience.

Guests can also enjoy well-known Italian-inspired cocktails, including the Bellini, Limoncello Spritz and Capri Fizz, adding to the venue’s Mediterranean atmosphere.

Bodrum Strengthens Position as a Global Luxury Tourism Hub

The arrival of Maison Revka and Gigi Rigolatto reflects the continued growth of Bodrum as a leading luxury destination on Turkey’s Aegean coast. The region has increasingly attracted international visitors through its combination of premium resorts, beaches, cultural heritage, gastronomy and exclusive lifestyle experiences.

Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum has become an important part of the destination’s luxury hospitality landscape by offering high-end accommodation, wellness facilities and culinary experiences designed for global travellers.

The addition of internationally recognised dining concepts supports Bodrum’s ambition to compete with other Mediterranean luxury destinations by creating more diverse experiences beyond traditional beach tourism.

Paris Society’s expansion also highlights the growing importance of destination-led hospitality, where restaurants are developed not only as dining venues but as complete lifestyle experiences combining design, culture, entertainment and social connections.
