Evidence by area
All eight areas, in the order this index reads them. Every line was read and placed by a person.
Air Ecology
The cooling plant is named as a heat recovery system, published for the fuel it saves rather than for what it does to indoor air. No filtration grade, air change rate or measurement is published.
In their words: “Treated wastewater is reused for landscaping irrigation and our heat recovery cooling system reduces our LNG consumption and carbon footprint.”
Water Integrity
Wastewater is published as treated and reused for landscape irrigation, and the resort reports a 10.49 percent fall in water consumption per room per night in 2025 against a 2019 baseline. Both figures are about volume rather than about what is in the water.
In their words: “10.49 percent decrease in water consumption per room per night in 2025 compared to 2019 baseline”
The spa is published as holding a full hydrothermal circuit with hammams, a Watsu pool, a hydrotherapy pool, crystal steam room and foot therapy basins. No treatment, disinfection method or test result is published for any of that water.
In their words: “Male and female hydrothermal experiences: heated loungers, crystal steam room, Finnish sauna, experiential rains, hydrotherapy pool, igloo, salt grotto and foot therapy basins”
Light Rhythm
The group publishes a named circadian intervention for arriving guests: complimentary access to the Timeshifter app, which builds a personal jet lag plan from chronotype and itinerary. It acts on behaviour rather than on the light in a room.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “We offer complimentary access to the Timeshifter app to improve your traveling experience. In the app, you get a personalized jet lag plan based on your sleep pattern, chronotype, itinerary, and personal preferences.”
On the group's sleep programme, room lighting is stated as one of the things that may be adjusted for a guest, with no colour temperature, lux level or schedule published.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “We may also change your lighting, offer you a sound therapy machine and provide sleep amenities including pamper products and sleep-inducing snacks and drinks.”
EMF Harmony
Not published. We looked and found nothing on this, which is a gap in what we could read, not a finding about the building.
Materials and Textiles
The mattress is specified by fibre and by the certification of its inputs: organic lamb's wool over coir from a certified organic coconut plantation, a latex layer from a certified organic rubber plantation, under a quilted cotton cover.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “The handmade mattress is made from organic lamb's wool with coir fiber that comes from a certified organic coconut plantation to ensure unbeatable airflow. The quilted cotton cover is anti-bug/mite/moth/anything creepy crawly, moisture-wicking and hypoallergenic. The latex layer comes from the only certified organic rubber plantation in the world”
The bed linen and pillows are named by fibre: organic cotton sheets, with non-allergenic organic pillows and duvets, and eucalyptus-based linen offered to guests who sleep hot.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “we have brought together some of the best sleeping tools from handmade mattresses, temperature regulating pillows and duvets to organic cotton sheets.”
Bathroom amenities at this resort are published as served from marble dispensers rather than plastic containers, in guest rooms, common areas and the spa.
In their words: “We use marble dispensers to eliminate plastic containers for liquid soap, shampoo, conditioner, and hand and body lotions in guest rooms, common areas, and our spa.”
Food and Kitchen
The resort publishes the output of its own garden as a measured annual figure: 267 kilograms of vegetables produced in 2025, alongside a composting machine that returns soil to the same beds.
In their words: “267 kilograms of vegetables produced in our garden in 2025”
The kitchens are published as supplied from the resort's own farms and gardens and from named local categories, under the group's grown-in rather than flown-in rule.
In their words: “Through growing much of our own fruit and vegetables on-site, and sourcing from local farms and vineyards, we can ensure that our guests enjoy fresh, whole, seasonal, and high-quality food that's grown-in, not flown-in, reducing packaging and transportation impacts.”
A third party publisher records an on-site organic garden, a locally sourced kitchen and plastic-free operations, with no grower, share or certification named.
In their words: “This Six Senses property, terraced into the hillside above the Aegean, has an on-site organic garden, locally sourced kitchen, plastic-free operations, and a spa featuring a full hydrotherapy circuit, hammams, a Watsu pool, meditation cave, sound healing, yoga, Pilates, and longevity programming including breathwork and sleep optimization.”

Biophilic and Healing Design
The buildings are published as set into rock formations under green roofs and biophilic walls, with the planting drawn from the region's own species: olive, cypress, oleander, sage and thyme.
In their words: “Built into rock formations and designed with green roofs and biophilic walls, the resort is home to many of Turkey's botanic species (nature's aromatherapy of olive, cypress, oleander, sage and thyme).”
The marine restoration work off the property is published with its numbers: a clean-up across 12 kilometres of coastline over 176 dives, more than 10 tons of tyres, rope and ghost nets removed, and 20 artificial reef blocks installed with sponge transplantation in 2025.
In their words: “Six Senses Kaplankaya and the Kaplankaya Facilities Management Sustainability teams launched a marine conservation initiative starting with a large-scale clean-up across 12 kilometers of coastline completed through 176 dives. Through the Regenerative Impact Fund, over 10 tons of tires, ropes, and ghost nets were removed.”
The resort states that 180 tree seedlings were planted in 2025 with students, staff and the regional forest management directorates.
In their words: “180 tree seedlings planted with students, hosts and forest management directorates in 2025”
Sound and Sensory Ecology
On the group's sleep programme a sound therapy machine may be provided to a guest on request. It is a masking device offered case by case, and no ambient noise level is published for any room.
It covers the operator or the group, not this property on its own.
In their words: “We may also change your lighting, offer you a sound therapy machine and provide sleep amenities including pamper products and sleep-inducing snacks and drinks.”

Disclosures
Compare what each stay offers, how it was checked and what still needs confirming. Assessment labels describe the review, not an overall quality rating.
A low score means a property has not published information. It does not mean the property is unsafe, unhealthy or poorly run.
A score describes proof: what a stay publishes and, on a Human Garage certified stay, what our assessor checked in person. It is not a quality rating of the property. Listings are free, and any commercial relationship is disclosed.
