Belek resort: general overview
Belek is very conveniently located on the Mediterranean sandy coastline, surrounded by cedar, pine and cypress plantations. The journey from Antalya Airport takes only about 20 minutes; from here it is easy to reach many sightseeing spots, and the resort centre has all the necessary infrastructure: restaurants, bars, clubs, leisure and entertainment centres, shops and excursion stands.
Seasonality: when to visit Belek
The ideal time to stay in Belek depends on the traveller's preferences. Those who love sunbathing on the beach or spending a holiday with children to improve their health in the sea warmed by the sun are recommended the hottest summer months – July and August. Travellers who do not feel well in high temperatures choose the shoulder season (which lasts until mid-October) or the spring months that come with early booking promotions – the second half of April and May. At the end of October the golf season opens and lasts until May. The mild winter with 10–15 degrees during the day, hotels with indoor pools and golf courses is ideal for fans of the game.

Belek at a glance: why travellers choose this resort
A few key points that help you quickly understand what kind of holiday you can expect in Belek.
Fast transfer from Antalya
The transfer from Antalya Airport to Belek takes about 20–30 minutes, so you move from plane to beach or hotel very quickly.
Long beach and golf season
July–August are best for very warm sea, spring and the October shoulder season are ideal for milder temperatures, and from late October to May the resort lives in golf mode.
Premium hotels & All Inclusive
The first coastline is lined with five-star resorts with private beaches, green gardens, aqua parks and spas, while four-star hotels provide a great value-for-money alternative close to the sea.
Family-friendly beaches
A 16 km stretch of sand, in places mixed with small pebbles, plus a gentle entry into the sea make Belek especially comfortable for families with children.
Plenty of excursions and fun
Ancient cities Perge and Aspendos, the Koprulu Canyon for rafting, numerous golf courses, Troya Aquapark and The Land of Legends theme park turn Belek into much more than just “hotel–beach–sea”.
Flight from Chișinău: how to get to Belek
The Turkey destination is very popular for holidays, and during the summer season flights from Chișinău and Iași operate several times a week. Regular and charter flights land at Antalya Airport, located close to Belek. From there, transfer buses take holidaymakers to their hotels in less than half an hour.
Hotels in Belek: from budget-friendly to ultra-luxury
Belek is a luxurious resort with expensive complexes and a high level of service. Five-star hotels line the first coastline, while four-star properties behind the golf courses still fully match the resort's up-market reputation. Let's look at what Belek has to offer in more detail.
Five-star hotels in Belek
The best complexes on the coastline are located on the first line and offer high-quality services. The luxurious facades of Orange County Belek, Kirman Belazur Resort&Spa and Spice Hotel&Spa rise above their private beaches. Spacious grounds and gardens alternate with restaurants and pools. These hotels are designed with family holidays in mind and offer premium accommodation, private beach areas and a wide range of services.
Four-star hotels in Belek
For a more budget-friendly stay, four-star hotels “pay” with about ten extra minutes to reach the beach. However, you can easily get to the sea by shuttle, so it barely affects overall comfort.
Of course, all essential services are present – pools, buffet-style meals, kids' clubs, sports and children's animation, evening shows. Maya World Park is a classic example of this category: a family-friendly hotel with plenty of facilities and the Land of Legends theme park located nearby.
Belek is not only about family holidays; young travellers love this resort as well. For those who come primarily for entertainment, we recommend Amon Hotels Belek 16+. In addition to four-star services, it offers parties, discos and plenty of chances to meet new people.
Three-star hotels in Belek
Belek is the most expensive resort on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, so three-star accommodation is practically absent here. Have a look at Prenses Sealine Beach Hotel in Bogazkent if your budget is limited. It is a small three-star hotel you can book without hesitation: a restaurant with three meals a day, a pool, a first-line location and even its own hammam. Naturally, the rooms are not new and the beach is public, but the price is significantly lower.
For more cautious travellers, we recommend considering Kemer with its clean pebble coast or Side, Belek's neighbour, which is perfect for building sand castles.
All Inclusive: advantages of this type of stay in Belek
Many of our travellers choose All Inclusive holiday packages for the opportunity to truly relax during their stay. It is about having a break from everyday chores and work, not worrying about where to have dinner, what to feed the kids or how to entertain them, whether you need to bring your own beach towels or hairdryer, whether there will be a spa centre or gym – All Inclusive covers all that. In addition, when all main services are included in the price, you save both time and on-site expenses.
Beach holiday in Belek
Belek's coastline is a long sandy beach, in some areas mixed with pebbles, stretching for about 16 km. The shore has a gentle slope, is clean and perfectly suited for children. The infrastructure even on public beaches matches the resort's high level: there are restaurants, bars, sun loungers, playgrounds, changing cabins and plenty of water-sport points.
Sightseeing tours and attractions in and around Belek
Travellers who have booked a holiday package to Belek are not limited to the trio of pool, beach and sea. The resort has more to offer. Sightseeing tours are very well developed here, and there are plenty of options for fans of active holidays.
Broaden your horizons
Perge
An ancient city built by Greeks who fled the Trojan War. The ancient capital of Pamphylia is well preserved, despite having seen the times of the Ottomans, Romans and Macedonians. During a tour of Perge, you can see ruins from different eras: a Roman amphitheatre, thermal baths and agoras, Byzantine basilicas, Hellenistic walls and gates, as well as temples, an acropolis, monumental fountains and a large stadium with 12,000 seats.
Aspendos
Another ancient city of Pamphylia, famous for its amphitheatre of the same name. Roman and Greek buildings have been preserved here: a basilica, fountains, an aqueduct, a bridge and an agora. The theatre has gone through many historical events, but remains in very good condition: during Eastern conquests, the Seljuks turned it into a caravanserai for travellers and later into a sultan's palace.
Enjoy an active stay
Koprulu Canyon
A national park located in the picturesque canyon of the mountain river Koprucay. Besides restaurants, boat trips and admiring eucalyptus, cypress and pistachio trees, you will find more active entertainment here. We recommend trying rafting: there are routes that are relaxing and safe even for beginners. For something more special, you can go horse riding, rock climbing or hiking.
Golf courses
Golf is no longer just a hobby for billionaires discussing the Forbes list on the greens. Make sure you try this fascinating game. While playing on Belek's beautiful golf courses and aiming the ball towards the hole, don't forget to enjoy the fresh eucalyptus-scented air all around you.
Spend quality time with the family
Troya Aquapark
A water-slide complex built in an ancient-style theme. The name Troya is symbolic – in the centre of the complex there is a huge wooden horse in life size, animators wear themed costumes, there is a children's town and a watchtower in Greek style. On site you will find restaurants, pools with waterfalls and waves, a dolphinarium and diving lessons (for an extra fee).
The Land of Legends theme park
A spacious family amusement park that requires at least one full day, sometimes even two. Extreme rides for older children and adults, a water park with countless slides, baby zones, performances and shows, boat rides along the canals, food courts – mums no longer have to sit on the sidelines while the kids play in the water, there is entertainment here for every age.
What to do in Belek besides the beach
Belek is perfect for those who value both relaxed days by the sea and varied activities. Here is how you can structure your time on the resort.
In the morning, enjoy the sea and beach time, taking advantage of the gentle entry into the water and the well-developed hotel infrastructure. Around midday, when the sun becomes stronger, you can discover the nearby golf courses surrounded by eucalyptus and pines or unwind in a cosy spa centre right in your resort.
For a half-day outing, an excursion to the ancient cities of Perge and Aspendos or a trip to Koprulu Canyon for rafting and nature walks works perfectly. In the evening, the resort comes alive with shows, animation programmes, bars, clubs and relaxed strolls under the trees along the coast.
Families with children will especially appreciate Troya Aquapark and, of course, a whole day (or two) at The Land of Legends, where water slides, rides, shows and canal boats turn a regular holiday into a little adventure.
Suggested 1-day itinerary in Belek
Start your morning with the sea: a leisurely breakfast at the hotel, then head to the beach for swimming, sand games with the kids and light beach sports. The gentle entry into the water and fine sand make it very comfortable for children.
After lunch, go on a half-day excursion to Perge and Aspendos. You'll see ancient amphitheatres, paved streets and well-preserved ruins from different eras – a nice balance between culture, history and scenic landscapes.
In the evening, return to your hotel for an All Inclusive dinner and enjoy the entertainment programme, live music or a relaxed walk around the resort grounds or along the seafront.
Suggested 2-day itinerary in Belek
Day 1. Dedicate this day to the sea and hotel facilities. In the morning – beach and pools, during the day – rest in your room or a nap for the kids, walks through the green areas, in the evening – dinner, shows and, if you feel like it, bars or clubs.
Day 2. In the morning, head to Koprulu Canyon National Park for gentle rafting, walks and photos in the mountains. After lunch, move on to The Land of Legends: water slides, rides, shows and evening atmosphere of a themed park will keep both kids and adults busy.
You can always swap the days or adjust the programme to the children's age and the season – the main thing is to leave enough time for a calm rest in your chosen All Inclusive hotel.
