5-Star Hotels in Antalya

- Private access to the beach - Good choice of food and non alcoholic drinks - Decent size of outdoor pools for kids under 6 years old - Very large outside pools for adults - Good size indoor pool and a small but good size indoor pool for infants and small children - Location is good as it can be reached using bus e.g. LC07 or LC07A from Antalya old town

The location is ok since you can walk anywhere you need or get there by a car. The spa is a great option to relax. Breakfast is pretty good, diverse and some options change every day. Sorry to say, but coffee was 2/5. What I didn’t get was a lack of bath robes (come on, it’s a 5* hotel) and cigarette smell everywhere, even though I stayed in a non-smoking room

Considering the March rate was reasonable – 2.5 times lower than it will be in August 2026 – this is simply a wonderful option. The main plus is the food. High-quality fresh greens, a small assortment of fruits and vegetables, fish and meat (fish only for dinner), plenty of pastries, drinks – all quite edible and tasty. Special thanks to the restaurant staff – they meticulously wiped tables and changed (not just wiped) napkins and tablecloths. On a Saturday, even in March, we had to wait about 10 minutes for a table to clear (most likely, this is a common scene in summer) (this didn't happen on other days). Dinner was more interesting than lunch and breakfast. A downside: the soups were spicy; they were tasty but spicy (I wanted to try local cuisine and I love cream soups, but the spiciness made it impossible). Naturally, this is definitely not suitable for children. However, it's worth noting there was a separate small table for children, perhaps with non-spicy soup, but I didn't check. The bar staff were very pleasant and quick. Entertainment: I don't know about summer, but in March, it consisted of very cheap performers and shows. Internet: Excellent. A peculiarity: using the Yandex Go app is convenient, but to call a taxi in the city center, you need local Wi-Fi; using foreign mobile data is hit or miss. Rooms: Family room, very small balcony, with a side view of the sea. Sitting on the balcony isn't very comfortable as you'll be face-to-face with neighbors. Problem: Lighting. Half of the ceiling lights were not working. In the bathroom, the ventilation didn't work at all, and after a shower, condensation dripped directly onto my head from the ceiling. We constantly kept the bathroom door open (an uncomfortable option, but there was no other choice). I don't know where one would dry towels in the summer, considering the small dryer on the tiny balcony only has space for 3 swimsuits. The shampoos, conditioners, gels, toothpaste, and toothbrushes were of very low quality. The beds were decent, but the pillows were old, with lumpy fillings inside. You have to ask for bathrobes at reception, and they weren't in pristine condition. The bedroom door was completely broken and didn't close properly (room 440). We didn't check the air conditioning. Upon check-in, only water was available at the bar; the advertised cola, Fanta, etc., were missing (see screenshot with information). The reception promised to bring them, but never did during our 3-night stay. However, considering there was plenty at the bar and restaurant, we didn't bother reminding them again. The hammam, sauna, and indoor pool in the spa were average. The pool water was cool. The spa area is inconveniently located – you have to walk past all the guests at reception and the bar in your robes and slippers. There's a cafeteria from 11 am to 6 pm where you can have tea and pastries, with a very pleasant Russian-speaking staff member named Ira. Also, there's a panoramic terrace on the 6th floor, which we discovered by chance. The hotel has its own access to the sea via a tunnel, but there's very little space – a narrow beach, more for a quick dip before returning to the hotel grounds for sun loungers (see photo from the beach, where the closed tunnel gates are visible). Considering all the points mentioned above, I would not agree to pay 45,000 rubles per night for a family room for four in August.

We stayed here for three nights, and it's truly a hotel worth reminiscing about. First off, the environment is fantastic, especially the restaurant which directly faces the Mediterranean Sea and mountains – the beautiful scenery is there from morning till night. The hotel's outdoor pool is below the restaurant, and one level further down, you can jump straight into the sea for a swim. There are plenty of sun loungers both by the pool and on the lower level, where Europeans lie and sunbathe all day. We, however, spent our days visiting other attractions, which felt a bit like a waste of the hotel's relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. Secondly, the room was spacious. For two adults and one child, we had one large bed and one single bed, and slept very comfortably. Although the hotel facilities are a bit old, it didn't really bother us. Finally, I have to mention the food. We opted for the half-board option (breakfast and dinner), and dinner was truly amazing! There was a wide variety of cold and hot dishes, desserts, and fruits, and the selection changed daily – there was so much we couldn't possibly try it all.

This isn't my first time at this hotel, and we absolutely love coming back here. I think this might be the only hotel in Antalya with its own private sandy beach! And I mean truly private! At other hotels, even if they claim 'private,' you often end up on a public beach or there's no sand at all (just cliffs leading straight into the sea with ladders). This hotel, however, has both sand and its own piers, plus convenient ladders for getting into the water. The heated pools are comfortable for swimming (I'm a southerner and I love warmth). In the mornings, there are group sessions for stretching and yoga. The food is delicious EVERYWHERE, and it's all included in the All-Inclusive package. Missed breakfast? No problem. You can grab pide, gözleme, or even ice cream near the beach. I particularly love the mini coffee shop by the red pool; the staff there make excellent coffee and various refreshing smoothies and cocktails. After lunch, there are lovely afternoon snacks with cakes, waffles, and delicious tea available in the same area, near the red pool. Dinners here are simply superb – the variety of dishes is incredible. On Wednesdays, they even served sushi. There are live performances by local artists during dinner, so in the evening, you can enjoy your meal and a glass of wine to harmonious music. After dinner, you can head to a full concert on the local stage – dancers, singers, cover bands, DJs (the hotel's website always lists who's performing and at what time, and it generally has a well-organized daily program). And if it suddenly rains and you feel cold, you can warm up in the steam room (which is quite good), sauna, or hammam. There's a pianist who plays periodically in the lobby during the day. I adore neoclassical music, so I was completely captivated and sat there listening to him. Guests here come from all sorts of countries and continents: Africa, Australia, the UK, Europe, all former USSR countries, and Middle Eastern countries. It's a shame I didn't see any guests from Asia; they were definitely missed in this friendly international atmosphere. It's truly interesting to chat with vacationers from such diverse cultures. Now, for the downsides (because nothing's perfect): The hotel rooms are showing their age. In our room, things would periodically fall off: light switches, power outlets, the bidet faucet. The sink was often clogged, so we had to call for it to be cleaned. The window seals could use replacing too, as they no longer block out street noise effectively. This next point might be neutral for some and a con for others: Not all staff speak German, Russian, or even English. We spoke one of the three, and most of the time we were understood and received a reply in one of those languages. However, there were instances where housekeepers only spoke Turkish and didn't understand any English. We had to use a translator for Turkish to communicate. The outdoor pools are closed from early October to the end of April (inclusive), with only the indoor pool operating. From May to the end of September, only the outdoor pools are open. Conclusion: I'd rate this hotel an 8/10. All the pros outweigh the cons.

I chose this hotel based on reviews and its affiliation with a well-known chain. Overall, it's not bad. I liked the room style, and the mattress was very soft, so I slept well. It's great that there's a balcony where you can watch planes fly by in the evening. It wasn't noisy at all, and it didn't disturb my sleep. We didn't try the food at the hotel restaurant, as the selection didn't appeal to us. We also didn't find anything appetizing at the buffet, and for the same price, we had an excellent meal at a restaurant near the hotel instead. The hotel's location is close to the airport, making it suitable for those using it as a transit point. There's a rooftop pool, but it was too cold, so we didn't swim. As for the downsides, there was only one tea bag in the room and no complimentary water. When I asked about water, I was directed to the bar. We ended up buying water at the supermarket. I'd give the hotel a generous 3 out of 5, it just lacks a certain warmth. We probably won't stay here again; we'll look for somewhere else.

Aska Lara Resort & Spa is truly one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at, especially for families with children. The facilities and activities are fantastic, but what made this hotel unforgettable was the incredible kindness of the staff. I have a five-year-old son with autism, and travelling isn’t always easy for us. From the moment we arrived, the Guest Relations team and every member of staff made us feel welcome, supported, and genuinely cared for. They went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible, and it meant more to us than words can express. I chose Aska Lara to celebrate both my son’s birthday and my engagement with my boyfriend, and I couldn’t have made a better choice. We felt at home throughout our stay. Everyone—from reception and Guest Relations to the restaurants, shops, and housekeeping—was so warm, friendly, and caring. This wasn’t just a hotel stay; it was a beautiful memory that we will always treasure. Aska Lara Resort & Spa is the only hotel I would happily return to, and whenever I visit Antalya, this will always be my first choice. Thank you for making our holiday so special. We can’t wait to come back.

We arrived at the hotel very early, around 9 AM due to an early flight. We were immediately given our all-inclusive bracelets and invited to have breakfast. After eating, the reception staff asked us to wait a bit, mentioning they might be able to check us in earlier than the official 2 PM time. Just before 12 PM, they called us to the reception and gave us our room keys. We are very grateful for this early check-in. The food is excellent. Breakfasts, lunches, and dinners offer a huge variety of dishes for everyone. You can also get a good snack right at the aquapark. The aquapark itself is nice, and the entertainment team is active—we especially liked the water football they encouraged guests to play. The alcoholic drinks and cocktails are good and completely not watered down, which is a massive plus. Logistics to the beach are very convenient. There is a shuttle bus, and at the beach, you will find a small bar with food, plus a staff member who helps you find available sunbeds. If you prefer walking, the beach is just a short distance away. The room cleaning service was great. A special thank you to our cleaner, Nezahat, for the beautiful towel art on our bed. The entire staff is very polite, friendly, and always ready to help. In conclusion, I highly recommend this hotel. The price-to-quality ratio completely exceeded our expectations.

Amazing hotel with great service! We stayed one night before a flight and it was everything we wanted. The gym is incredible with an outdoor and indoor pool. We left super early in the morning to catch our flight and they gave us breakfast to go. Definitely recommend this hotel if you want to be near the airport. We took a taxi to the old town and cost us about 500 TL

This is a great hotel for families with children – there’s plenty for kids to enjoy and the atmosphere is very family-oriented. However, if you’re an adult looking for a quiet or more mature environment, this may not be the best choice, as most guests are families and there are lots of children around. The food was good with a decent variety, everything was clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.
