Turkish Bath in Marmaris
Turkish Bath in Marmaris, what we call Hamam spread its roots all the way back in time of Ottoman Empire. While France was improving their perfume factory to smell good Ottomans prefered to get cleaned for that reason.
Turkish bath in Marmaris starts with relaxation in a room (known as the warm room) sauna ,that is heated by a continuous flow of hot, dry air, allowing the bather to perspire freely. Bathers may then move to an even hotter room (known as the hot room) before they wash in cold water. After performing a full body wash and receiving a massage, bathers finally retire to the cooling-room for a period of relaxation.
Why You Try Turkish Bath
- Turkish baths have been extremely popular since the times of the Ottoman Empire. Although it sounds like a joke, you will make sure that it is actually a pure truth as soon as you enter Hammam.
- Words cannot explain the joy that you are going to experience there.
- You will be treated like the most valuable guests. Do not miss the chance to try a real Turkish bath.
- A visit to Hammam is a must for those who want to get a beautiful suntan: well-treated skin always looks better. Ideally, you should visit the Turkish bath at the beginning of your holiday for better results.

Ottoman’s Turkish bath approach
The Ottomans in particular became prolific patrons of baths, building a number of ambitious structures, particular in Constantinople after it became their capital in 1453. The monumental baths designed by Renaissance Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan (1489–1588), such as the stand-alone 1584 “Çemberlitaş Hamamı”, the bath in the complex of the 1558 Süleymaniye Mosque (both in Constantinople) and the bath of the Selimiye Mosque in Edirne were particularly influential.
Whats sturcture is Turkish bath like?
The turkish bath usually has a large dome decorated with small glass windows that create a half-light; it also contains a large marble stone called (tummy stone) at the center that the customers lie on, and niches with fountains in the corners. This room is for soaking up steam and getting scrub massages. The warm room is used for washing up with soap and water and the soğukluk is to relax, dress up, have a refreshing drink, sometimes tea, and, where available, a nap in a private cubicle after the massage.
The hamam, like its precursors, is not exclusive to men. Turkish bath in Marmaris complexes usually contain separate quarters for men and women; or males and females are admitted at separate times. Because they were social centers as well as baths, hamams became numerous during the time of the Ottoman Empire and were built in almost every Ottoman city.
Prosedures of Turkish Bath
Today everyone has a shower at home which is necessery in our daily life. But it still doesnt replace our traditional Turkish Bath. As a difference to a normal shower, which only wash your sweat, Turkish Bath is combined of three prosedures.
1-Sauna– Entering a room covered with special wood producing very refreshing aroma while your enjoying the steam inside. Body start sweating and throwing all uselles toxins out of the skin through the spores on the surface.
2- Scrub– After the sauna we move to another room covered with marreble which we call Hamam. In the middle is a raund big marble stone used to lay on and relax. Its underheated and deffinitely helps to ease your musseles. So this is when a staff called(tellak) gently scrub your body (exfoliating) and take all the dead skin off of very surface. Its prooved that helps for getting better sunten.
3-Soap-Very spesial method to cover all your body with soap that helps the last peace of dead skin split away.
NOTE: – Oil massage- or aroma therapy is normally not a part of the Turkish Bath. But for commersial reasons you will always see it recommended at the end.

As a large family of 17, we decided to do a few day trips with "Brendan from E good travel", having read some wonderful reviews about him and his company....we... read more were definitely not disappointed!!! In fact, we did the Turkish baths, the Quad biking, the Jeep safari and even hired a private boat for a full day....what a wonderful experience had by all!!!! Our family was aged from 12 to 58 and everyone of us had a brilliant holiday and that was hugely due to the day trips, what wonderful memories we all have now......its been a tough 2 and a half years for everyone and this was exactly what we all needed!!!!!....from the moment we were picked up from the hotel everday by minibus and brought back, all we did was laugh, sing, dance and more.....some days we were brought back to the hotel, wet, filthy, tired but definitely happy, great memories!!! On one daytrip one of our family members had left his wallet on the minibus, having realised this late eve, we rang Brendan, he checked straight away and sure enough we had it back the next day......we found Brendan to be very knowledgeable in all that he does, he is very friendly, has a lovely manner and is very welcoming.....we would highly recommend Brendan and his company, "E Good travel" to anyone looking for a day filled with laughter, song and great fun!!!!

Brendan has been amazing helping us with our trips. Brendan even noticed that the weather was going to be a bit rubbish on one of the days we had... read more a boat trip booked and found us an alternative for a day with better weather at no extra cost. His prices were the best I saw while we were out. The jeep safari is a must do, me and the family had such as great day filled with laughter. Be prepared to get very wet.
We also went scuba diving which was awesome. So many fish to see and the guys on the ship where so helpful and really made us feel at ease.
We are so lucky to have come across Brendan at e-good travel. He really did make our holiday amazing.

Well where do i begin? Me and my partner went to Mamaris for the first time in October 2021. We did not know what to expect and were quite nervous.... read more We wanted to do lots of excursions and make it a holiday to remember. With browsing through the internet we came across E-Good travel with excellent review so thought hey it must be good right. I gave Brendan a message who was so polite, helpful and informing right from the first message. He agreed to meet us at our hotel the day we got there and was happy to answer all my questions leading up to the holiday. Brendan settled a lot of anxieties for our first holiday. He even sent a photo of him and his van to ensure safety which i thought was so good of him!
We arrived 21st october 2021 and Brendan met us as promised right on time! We went to his office and discussed all the excursions we wanted to do. He planned an amazing week for us! He was so welcoming and polite, helping us in every way we could! We booked buggy safari, jeep safari, turkish bath, parasailing and go karting: all of which i will DEFO recommend everyone doing. All the trips ran smoothly and on time with all drivers polite and respectful. Such good fun.... the jeep safari was my favourite with a 40 minute water fight where we all got really competative .
When our return home came (very sad times ) Brendan went out of his way to ensure we had everything prepared to minimise our stress. From communicating in the UK prior to our holiday, right through to when we left... Brendan was always there if needed. We cannot thank Brendan enough for all his assistance, absolutely amazing person inside and out. We are even returning with our children in 2023 and the first stop will be E-Good travel to see our friend Brendan!
Guys, i recommend E-Good travel for all your excursion needs! You will not be disappointed. Even if you are unsure of what to do, a quick chat with Brendan will ensure your trip is organised well and packed with fun! Dont forget he also does executive private airport transfers... nothing but CLASS! Arrive in style at your hotel with the help of the main man Brendan and his trusted and reliable team.
Thank you so much Brendan! We miss you and cannot wait for the next holiday...... you really are a beautiful person with the kindest heart! You made our first holiday to Mamaris one to remember... ❤

HAMAM EXPERIENCE
Although we were a little intrepid about this tour, at first, all was well. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone. Just “go with the flow” and relax and enjoy. I really recommend the hot oil massage after. When we were all “loosey goosey” afterwards, our guide took us on an unexpected tour of the city and we learned of it’s historical significance. Great tour.
Fantastic! You have to try that.
