Location
Located in Alanya, this hotel is right by the Mediterranean shore and around 10km from Alanya downtown. The 5* hotel is close to the beach which is accessible via the hotel. Alanya itself is approximately 2.5 hours drive from Antalya Airport. The district of Alanya is in the country’s Mediterranean Region, 138 kilometres (86 mi) east of the city of Antalya.
There are hotel transfers available and will cost from anywhere between £20-£50 for a round trip.
There are local shops nearby but to see the true Turkish culture, we advise you to take a trip to Alanya Downtown where you will get to see the centre of Alanya and all kinds of shops and restaurants. The locals are very friendly and taxi’s readily available. Don’t forget to buy some authentic Turkish Delight!

Value For Money

Service / Staff
The service was brilliant. The 24hour concierge were very friendly. Their English is not great but you expect that going to an international country. We were able to effectively communicate as they do try their best to help. The staff at the desk were really helpful and seemed to genuinely care about their guests. They talked to us about the culture and gave us great tips for places to visit.
On one evening, they saw us just moping around in the lobby (wondering what to do) they quickly came up to us to find out if everything was ok. After realising we didn’t have anything to do, they gave us advice on where to go and how to get there. They explained everything and we ended up having a fantastic night away from the hotel in Alanya City Centre. They even wrote down their contact details for us to give to a taxi if we got lost. Absolutely lovely service.
Lastly – Would we go back
YES! Although the trip from the airport was long (2.5hours) the hotel itself offers very good value for money. The location is nice with mountain views. If you are thinking of going to Alanya, give this hotel a try. It’s very decent for the money.
