Cheap Holidays to Antalya
Located on the Mediterranean coast of Antalya is a popular family holiday destination throughout the year. In the winter it’s possible to ski at nearby Saklikent Canyon, but the major attraction here are the beautiful beaches and warm waters of the Med, making Antalya an ideal spot for a beach holiday. Because Antalya is an ancient city, you will enjoy the atmospheric old town, the fascinating harbor and the traditional Turkish architecture found here - typically shuttered, flower-clad houses rising along the narrow streets. The backdrop to Antalya - the Taurus Mountains, famed for their pine forests - is as stunning as its attractive, restaurant-lined seafront. Antalya International airport is just 10 km out of town, making the resort extremely accessible.
The stretch of coast around Antalya is known as the Turkish Riviera. It’s characterized by gentile seafront resorts, small fishing villages, swaying palm trees, safe, sandy beaches and clear waters. In and around Antalya are many excellent beaches. Some hotels have direct access onto central Mermerli Beach, while 2 km away is Blue Flag-awarded Konyaaltu Beach and 6 km away is popular Lara Beach. Antalya is a well-established resort centre, so hotels range from five star luxury featuring spas and health clubs, through comfortable four and three star, many located in Antalya’s modern centre. Views of the mountains and sea are breath-taking, and most hotels boast Mediterranean-style gardens with fruit trees and swimming pools.
