Trade-off

30km east of the airport — golf-resort heartland and Turkey's 5-star concentration.

A purpose-built resort district carved out of pine forest 30km east of Antalya. Home to most of Turkey's 5-star and ultra-all-inclusive properties (Maxx Royal, Rixos, Regnum) and 15+ championship golf courses. Beach is wide and sandy, but you live entirely inside the hotel gates.
