The Mardan Palace Luxury Surpasses Larger Than Life Status

The gondola ride across the blue water pool takes 30 minutes.

The Mardan Palace in Antalya, Turkey is luxury beyond all meaning. With 11 Italian restaurants, a 2,400 fish aquarium (yes you can swim with the fish), and 560 remarkable rooms, most places on the planet fail to compare to its aura.

The opening of the Mardan Palace brought a flock of “who’s who” including Richard Gere, Mariah Carey, Sharon Stone, and (OF COURSE) Paris Hilton.

Russian billionaire Telman Ismailov has spent over $1 billion on the project and for only $18,300 a night you can enjoy the 9,000 tonnes of white sand imported from Egypt, the 500,000 crystals and 23,000 square meters of Italian marble.
