Holiday in Belek

About Belek

Belek is the undisputed golf and luxury capital of the Turkish Riviera. Located about 30 kilometers east of Antalya, this former fishing village has developed into one of the most exclusive holiday destinations in Turkey. Over 15 world-class championship golf courses – including the legendary Carya Golf Club and the Montgomerie Maxx Royal – make Belek a paradise for golfers from all over Europe. The expansive sandy beaches stretch for miles and are directly managed by most hotels, offering sun loungers, water sports, and crystal-clear Mediterranean waters. But Belek offers much more than golf and beach. The ancient amphitheater of Aspendos, just 25 kilometers away, is one of the best-preserved Roman theaters in the world and hosts an international opera and ballet festival in the summer. The ruins of Perge, with their impressive stadium and colonnaded streets, transport visitors back to antiquity. The Köprülü Canyon National Park invites visitors to enjoy white-water rafting and hiking through fragrant pine forests. The all-inclusive resorts in Belek set standards: huge pool landscapes, spa areas with traditional hammam, kids' clubs, and gourmet restaurants are the norm. For families with children, The Land of Legends is a highlight – an amusement park with water slides and shows right at the hotel gates. From Germany, Belek can be easily reached by direct flight to Antalya in about three hours. A shuttle bus or taxi takes guests to the hotel in 30 minutes. The best travel time is between April and November, with golfers particularly appreciating the mild spring and autumn. In the peak summer, temperatures rise above 35 degrees, perfect for beach lovers. A budget holiday in Belek is more challenging than elsewhere on the Riviera, but the all-inclusive packages offer excellent value for money despite higher prices.
