Welcome to Bodrum’s most stylish new address.
After conquering Paris, Saint-Tropez, Rome, and Dubai, Gigi Rigolatto is bringing its signature Italian joie de vivre to the Aegean coast. The brand’s newest summer pop-up has landed at the Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum, setting the tone for an unforgettable season of sun-drenched dining, sea views, and chic soirées.
Backed by RIKAS Hospitality Group and Paris Society, Gigi’s Bodrum debut is no mere pop-up—it’s the beginning of a long-term partnership that will see the opening of a permanent venue in 2026. For now, this seasonal escape is the ultimate place to live out your Mediterranean summer fantasies.
Nestled within the terraced gardens of the Mandarin Oriental and overlooking a private bay, the open-air terrace seats 120 guests and feels like it was built for slow, sultry afternoons and glittering nights. French architect Hugo Toro, known for his romantic, historically infused interiors, has reimagined Gigi’s signature aesthetic for the Turkish coast. The result? A refined yet relaxed atmosphere where cypress trees sway and every hour feels like golden hour.
The culinary offering is pure Gigi: sun-soaked, seasonal, and unapologetically Italian. Guests can expect crowd-pleasers like Vitello Tonnato, Catch of the Day, and indulgent scoops of Pistachio Gelato—dishes that capture the breezy essence of the Tuscan countryside and Puglian coastlines.
And it doesn’t end with the food. The Gigi Boutique extends the lifestyle experience with a curated edit of resortwear, beauty essentials, and home accessories from international brands. Whether you’re shopping for your next poolside look or picking up a gift, the boutique keeps the Italian holiday spirit alive long after your last Bellini.
Expect live DJs spinning sea breeze soundtracks, sunset drinks that slip into starlit parties, and the sort of spontaneous, spirited energy that’s made Gigi a cult name across Europe and the Middle East.
As their tagline goes, “Alla Grande!”—and in Bodrum, they mean it.
The summer pop-up is now open and taking bookings via SevenRooms.
