Hotels in Oludeniz

Where to Stay in Ölüdeniz

• Ölüdeniz centre and Belcekız: hotels and resorts within walking distance of the beach, with restaurants and a seafront promenade.
• Hisarönü: on the hillside, with lively evenings and many hotels, a short dolmuş ride from the beach.
• Ovacık: calmer hotels with mountain views, close to the start of the Lycian Way.
• Faralya and Kabak: boutique guest houses in nature above Butterfly Valley.

Types of Hotel

Hotels and resorts dominate in Ölüdeniz; aparthotels and small hotels with pools are common in Hisarönü and Ovacık. Alcohol-free family hotels are also among the options; check the concept in the hotel description.

When to Go

The swimming season runs from May to October, with June and September the most balanced months. Paragliding runs through the season depending on the weather, and spring and autumn are ideal for walking the Lycian Way.

Getting There

The nearest airport is Dalaman. For a private transfer to your hotel, see Dalaman Airport to Oludeniz transfer. Dolmuş minibuses run frequently between Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü, Ovacık and Fethiye centre.

Things to Do in Ölüdeniz

Paragliding from Babadağ, swimming in the Blue Lagoon nature park, boat trips to Butterfly Valley and St Nicholas Island, a walk to Kayaköy and the first stages of the Lycian Way are the classics. For quiet coves, see Hidden Beach Hotels on Turkey’s Mediterranean Coast.

Who Is It For?

Thanks to its shallow lagoon, Ölüdeniz is ideal for families with young children, travellers after activities such as paragliding and boat trips, and walkers. For lively evenings choose Hisarönü; for peace, Ovacık or Faralya.

Practical Tips

• The Blue Lagoon nature park charges an entry fee; arrive early for umbrellas and sunbeds.
• Booking paragliding early in your holiday leaves room to retry if the weather cancels it.
• The road down from Hisarönü to the beach is steep, so take the dolmuş rather than walking.
• Check the return time on the Butterfly Valley boat trip and be back at the pier in time for the last boat.
• In summer, dolmuş minibuses between Hisarönü and the beach run until late at night.
