Where to Stay in Antalya
Three personalities: Kaleiçi's Ottoman courtyards, Lara's sandy resort mile, Konyaaltı's mountain-backed local beach — pick the trip you're actually taking.
Last verified 26 August 2026
Lara
The sandy resort mile east of the city — big-name all-inclusives, long beach, and the airport 15 minutes away.
Konyaaltı
The pebble crescent west of the cliffs, mountains rising straight behind — city-connected beach life with museums and the cable car nearby.
Kaleiçi
Sleep inside the old walls: Ottoman-mansion boutique hotels around courtyard pools, with the harbour and nightlife on foot.
Frequently asked questions
Which area is best for first-timers?
Kaleiçi if character and evenings matter most; Lara for classic beach-resort holidays; Konyaaltı for the balanced budget play with tram access to both worlds.
