Inside Rixos Tersane Istanbul: A new era of multigenerational luxury in Türkiye
For years, Türkiye has enjoyed a loyal following among GCC travellers — a sun-soaked escape offering rich heritage, warm hospitality, and favourable proximity. But something deeper is happening now. As luxury travel habits shift, the region's elite are no longer content with seasonal getaways. They're craving immersive experiences, multi-generational moments, and places that resonate on a personal level. At the heart of this transformation stands Rixos Tersane Istanbul, a property that is not merely redefining luxury in Türkiye — it is reimagining how luxury hospitality connects with culture, legacy, and family. "We've witnessed a beautiful evolution," says Fettah Tamince, Founder and Chairman of the Board of Rixos Hotels. "GCC travellers have not just increased in number, they've matured in their expectations. Today, they seek destinations that speak to their identity, their heritage, and their desire for meaningful experiences." A Lifestyle Destination Open since September 2024, Rixos Tersane Istanbul is nestled along the historic shores of the Golden Horn, in the heart of what was once a 600-year-old Ottoman shipyard. "This is not just a property," Tamince says. "It's the beating heart of a new lifestyle ecosystem. Within the Tersane district, we are building something that speaks directly to Gulf families, whether you're travelling with children, grandparents, or an entire private group." From the largest luxury retail zone in Europe to immersive wellness sanctuaries, elite sports arenas, curated fine dining, and family-centric entertainment, Rixos Tersane offers a seamless blend of recreation and relaxation. "It's not a check-in point," Tamince adds. "It's a destination that defines what multigenerational luxury should look like." For Gulf travelers who value depth alongside indulgence, the Tersane district's historical setting is a key draw. With its centuries-old maritime legacy, it delivers something increasingly rare in the global luxury circuit: authenticity. "This is where legacy and luxury intersect," says Tamince. "At Rixos Tersane Istanbul, our guests walk through living history with every modern indulgence at their fingertips. For Gulf travellers who want more than a five-star stay; who want meaning behind the marble, this is the answer." According to Tamince, exclusivity at Rixos is not about gatekeeping, it's about deepening the guest journey. "Exclusivity is not about restricting access; it's about elevating experience,' he explains. 'We are not scaling rooms, we are scaling personalisation. Through tailored guest journeys, private butlers, and curated cultural moments, we ensure that every stay feels rare and unforgettable." Türkiye's Unique Position When asked how Turkish luxury hospitality plans to rival legendary destinations like the French Riviera or Switzerland, Tamince's response is firm yet poetic. "We don't compete, we differentiate," he says. "Istanbul was once the capital of empires. Every stone, every street tells a story. Gulf elites are not just drawn to indulgence, they're drawn to soul. And that soul is uniquely alive here. Turkish luxury hospitality, especially in Istanbul, stands on the shoulders of a civilisation that has been welcoming royalty, traders, and travellers for centuries." He continues, "With Rixos Tersane Istanbul leading the way, we are not offering just luxury, we are offering legacy. That is something no Riviera or Alpine resort can replicate."

With a firm foundation in artisanal craftsmanship and a fast-growing international presence, the company is reinforcing its position as a trusted partner to businesses in the hospitality, real estate, and retail sectors worldwide. Founded in 2021, Royal Garden has experienced exceptional growth, with sales rising over 55% year-over-year and demand for its premium outdoor and hotel furniture extending far beyond its home market. In response, the company has initiated a major capacity expansion at its Giza Industrial Zone facility, incorporating automation and lean production techniques while preserving the hand-finished quality that defines the Royal Garden brand. With this expansion, monthly output now exceeds 1,000 units, ensuring shorter lead times and greater production flexibility for bulk and custom orders.

They rely on us for dependable supply, inspired design, and shared values around sustainability and excellence,' said Zaky. 'This expansion empowers us to scale while keeping those priorities at the core of everything we do.' Royal Garden recently showcased its latest outdoor and hotel furniture collections at Le Marché 2025, the Middle East and Africa's largest furniture and home design exhibition. The brand's presence at the event marked a milestone in its international expansion, drawing the attention of global buyers, designers, and developers.
