Sherwood Breezes Resort - Antalya

Set on the Meditteranean coast, Antalya is an area renowned for beautiful hotels. The Sherwood Breezes Resort in Lara is very typical of that great reputation. Swimming pools are in abundance here, there are 6 in total across the resort, (including 3 children's freshwater pools) and a family-friendly waterpark. Like many of the best hotels in Turkey, Sherwood Breezes also has it's own private beach and beach bar.

CLC Kusadasi Golf & Spa - Kusadasi

The Kusadasi Golf & Spa in Kusadasi is an ideal place to stay if you want scenic views, swimming pool galore and a meditative round of golf. The hotel sits in a parkland location backdropped by the Kusadasi mountains overlooking the Meditteranean. The resort has 11 pools across the site, private access to the beach and an 18-hole golf course and clubhouse. Although there's a pool with waterslides, the CLC Kusadasi is probably more suited to couples.

Titanic Beach Lara - Antalya

The Titanic Beach Lara is a unique Turkish hotel. Designed after the legendary ship, the 5* hotel towers over the resort in Lara, Antalya, and from a distance, you'd be forgiven for mistaking it for a real ship in the sea.
