W.E.T. EDITORIAL PROFILE
Boutique stay, Spa & rituals in İstanbul / Büyükada.
An island wellbeing escape where Anim Wellbeing combines hammam, pools, yoga, meditation, aqua therapy and outdoor movement.
Princes’ Palace on Büyükada offers an island-based wellbeing experience through Anim Wellbeing, combining spa rituals, movement and quiet outdoor spaces with views across the Marmara Sea.
Why we selected it
The setting creates a rare proposition close to Istanbul: genuine distance from the city without a long journey. Anim Wellbeing adds enough depth to make the stay wellness-led rather than simply scenic.

Wellness Focus
Anim Wellbeing includes heated indoor and outdoor pools, an Ottoman hammam, steam rooms and saunas, couples’ wellness suites, treatment spaces, Technogym fitness, a Zen Yoga Terrace and personalised therapy pathways.
Movement & Mindfulness
Current activities include Vinyasa and Hatha yoga, guided meditation, breathwork and Aqua Therapy in the heated indoor pool. The island setting also supports cycling, tennis and coastal walking.
W.E.T. note
