When choosing a resort, tourists first of all pay attention to the beach where they will have to relax. Most of them prefer sandy beaches with a gentle entry into the water, but there are also lovers of pebble coastal areas that have their own special flavor.
The best resorts in the country are located on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey and the coastal zone of the Aegean Sea. These areas can offer vacationers sand, pebble and mixed beaches. Almost all of them are well equipped, and many are marked with a blue flag, which means the special purity of this place. When planning a vacation in Turkey, try to choose hotels located on one of these coasts.

The best Turkish hotels: characteristics
As we have already found out, in Turkey, the beach where the hotel is located is of great importance. Therefore, when choosing a tour, ask if the hotel complex has its own beach or you will have to relax on the municipal coastal strip. Naturally, the best hotels are those that have their own beach area. You can be sure that there will be security, developed infrastructure and idealpurity. This is carefully monitored by hotel staff.
It is worth considering the "star" of the hotel, because people go to Turkey not only for the sea and the sun, but also for excellent service and entertainment. It so happened that five-star and four-star hotels are the best. They have a vast territory with a large number of infrastructure facilities, an excellent animation team and provide a high level of service. Therefore, in this case, you should not skimp and look for budget "three rubles". In Turkey, the level of stardom is very important, and the difference between hotels, for example, categories of "three stars" and "four stars" is very noticeable. We have prepared for you a list of the best hotels on the coast of Turkey, but we will return to this issue a little later.
Mediterranean Coast Resorts
When we talk about the Mediterranean coast, we first of all mean Antalya resorts. But do not forget that Antalya itself is significantly different from other resort areas that are part of its province. These places are distinguished by their location and characteristics of the beaches. The following resorts are among the best on Turkey's Mediterranean coast:
- Alanya;
- Belek;
- Side;
- Kemer;
- Antalya.
We paid attention to each resort in a separate section.
Alanya
Most often it is here that tourists come to Antalya. This resort belongs to the democratic and family. Its beaches are perfectsuitable for children's feet, as they are almost entirely composed of fine, pleasant sand.
The resort is built up with large five-star and four-star hotels that can provide their guests with absolutely everything they need. Many tourists say that you don’t have to go outside the hotel complexes in Alanya at all, because there is plenty of fun and entertainment here.
Families with children are best to go to Avsallar or Incekum. They are located in an ecologically clean area and have simply luxurious beaches.
Belek
This resort is one of the most expensive on the coast of Turkey. Very often, it is from him that they make an impression about the country itself and its resorts. A distinctive feature of Belek are the beaches. Most of them are marked with a blue flag, and this indicates environmental cleanliness. In addition, almost every beach has a gentle entry into the water and very fine sand. In rare cases, there may be some pebble stones at the very edge of the water, which, however, do not interfere too much with rest.
Most of the hotels here belong to the club category. They are designed for people who are willing to pay for comfort and service at the highest level. On the territory of hotels there are often golf courses and full-fledged nightclubs. Guests of such complexes come here mainly for a lazy beach holiday and spa treatments.
Gloria Golf Resort 5
If you are looking for a luxury hotel complex in Belek for your family, then pay attention to GloriaGolf Resort 5. He's great from every point of view. The guests are especially struck by the dense coniferous forest that surrounds the hotel from all sides. This unusual combination of tall trees, snow-white beach and clear azure waters captivates the heart of every tourist. The hotel complex has earned high ratings from guests due to its location, high level of service and an abundance of entertainment that will not let vacationers get bored for a minute.
Side
About Side, we can say that this is a fairly young resort on the coast of Turkey. Not so long ago, it was a tiny settlement, but it quickly transformed into a stunning tourist spot. Now it is incredibly popular with Russian tourists.
The western part of the resort is developing more rapidly, so there are many hotels, and the beaches are filled with vacationers. But eastern Side belongs to calm resorts with beach areas that fit perfectly into the beautiful natural landscape.
About the beaches of the resort I want to say separately. They are fabulously beautiful. Imagine a wide strip of sand stretching along the emerald waters of the Mediterranean Sea, which literally glistens in the sun. For the sake of such a spectacle, it is worth going to this young resort.
Barut Hemera 5
This hotel is considered one of the best in Side. It has its own beach with a length of 100 m. This area is fully equipped for recreation, so the guests of the hotel complex can absolutely calmly and comfortably spend time here.

Turkey, Kemer: coastline
This resort covers a very vast territory, which is divided into at least five practically independent resorts. Kirish, Goynuk and Beldibi were especially fond of our compatriots.
Keep in mind that almost all Kemer beaches are pebbly. The stones are very small and do not cause much discomfort when walking along the beach. However, it is this fact that allows the water to be transparent. On the entire coast of Turkey, the Mediterranean Sea is the cleanest here. This is noted by tourists and numerous experts who monitor the quality of beach areas.
Kemer has a very developed infrastructure, so young people often come here, who prefer to have fun all night long. There are many restaurants and colorful national cafes serving lamb and seafood speci alties.
Antalya
If Turkey's many shops and vibrant nightlife beckon you, the Antalya coast is what you really need. Antalya is a bustling and large resort with beautiful sandy beaches located mostly within the city.
The choice of hotels here is very wide. Young people usually prefer simple hotels in the city center with extreme proximity tobars and restaurants, and families with children tend to the suburbs. Recently, Russian tour operators began to sell vouchers to hotels located in the small village of Lara. It is a suburb of Antalya and has more than ten luxurious five-star hotel complexes. The only negative may be the rumble of airliners going to land, because there is an international airport close to Lara.
Barut Lara Hotel 5
This is one of the best hotels in the suburbs of Antalya. Its beach is a piece of the famous Lara beach, which is a long sandy spit.
This hotel complex is unashamedly called chic by guests, because it has a very developed infrastructure, excellent cuisine and great design. The hotel staff are very polite, caring and pay attention to detail. Guests always feel that they are treated as welcome guests, and eager to return here again.
Turkish Aegean coast resorts
Resort areas on the Aegean coast are no less beautiful than on the Mediterranean coast. However, they are much more expensive, so Europeans mainly rest here. Of course, Russians also come here and note that local resorts resemble European ones. Marmaris and Bodrum are considered the best places. We will give a brief description of them in the following sections of the article.
Marmaris
This is an amazingly picturesque resort where photographers, divers and young people love to come. The former enjoy driving around the neighborhood in search of amazing shots,the latter tirelessly explore the depths of the sea, but young people speak enthusiastically about luxurious nightclubs that are better than many European establishments.

This place lives up to its reputation as the Turkish Riviera. The resort is distinguished by a certain sophistication and sophistication. Musicians, singers and writers often come here to relax. Many of them live in Bodrum for months, enjoying its atmosphere and beauty.
There are many opportunities for active sports, especially diving and windsurfing. The nightclubs of Bodrum are quite famous, but you will not find cheerful young people there, because the local audience is middle-aged people who know how to relax properly and without fanaticism.
Grand Yazici Bodrum 5
