Hotels in Alanya

Where to Stay in Alanya

• The centre and Cleopatra Beach: a sandy beach within walking distance of the harbour and bazaar; for restaurants and evenings out.
• East (Oba, Mahmutlar, Kestel): aparthotels and city hotels near the beach; good for longer stays.
• West (Konaklı, Avsallar, Türkler): all-inclusive resorts with large gardens, popular with families.

Types of Hotel

Alongside city hotels and all-inclusive resorts, aparthotels with kitchens are very common in Alanya. Families will find resorts with children’s pools and kids’ clubs, and couples boutique hotels close to the beach. For family holidays, see our guide Family Resorts on Turkey’s Mediterranean: Alanya, Side, Kemer and Ölüdeniz.

When to Go

Alanya’s swimming season is one of the longest on the Mediterranean, usually from late April to November. June and September offer the best balance of warmth and crowds; July and August are the hottest and busiest. The mild winter makes Alanya popular for long stays.

Getting There

The nearest airport is Gazipaşa-Alanya Airport, while Antalya Airport, with more flights, is further away. For a private transfer to your hotel, see Gazipasa-Alanya Airport to Alanya transfer and Antalya Airport to Alanya transfer.

Things to Do

Alanya Castle, the cable car, the Red Tower, Damlataş Cave and boat trips from the harbour are the classic experiences. The ancient city of Side and the Manavgat waterfall nearby make easy day trips.

Practical Tips

• For a sandy beach choose the centre and Cleopatra Beach; for a quiet resort, the western coast.
• Aparthotels are usually room only or bed and breakfast, so plan meals accordingly.
• In summer, sightsee in the morning and late afternoon rather than in the midday heat.

Who Is Alanya For?

Thanks to its sandy beach and shallow water, Alanya suits families with young children very well. Its long, mild season, good-value aparthotels and lively town centre also attract long-stay visitors and independent travellers. For a quieter alternative, consider nearby Side or Kemer, known for its nature.

A Sample Week

Spend the first days relaxing on the beach and at your hotel, and take the cable car up to the castle one late afternoon for the sunset. Midweek, join a boat trip from the harbour to the coves around Damlataş Cave, and set aside a day for Side and the Manavgat waterfall. Towards the end of the week, cool off at the riverside restaurants along the Dim River.
