Top Resorts and Accommodation

When booking a package holiday to this vibrant region, choosing the right base is essential for a stress-free experience. If you are seeking a premium level of comfort and convenience, consider the following option:

• Akra Kemer: Located in the town of Antalya, this five-star luxury resort is situated right on the beachfront. It is a fantastic choice for those who want to be surrounded by the dramatic scenery of the Taurus Mountains while enjoying high-end amenities.

Beaches and Coastal Appeal

The Mediterranean Region is defined by its stunning coastline. You will find a mix of golden sands and pebbled coves that are kept pristine for visitors. The water is generally calm and inviting, making it perfect for swimming or enjoying a variety of watersports. Most resorts in the area offer private beach access, allowing you to spend your days lounging on a sunbed with a drink in hand without having to venture far from your hotel.

Food, Drink and Local Life

One of the true joys of holidaying in Turkey is the food. Local towns like Antalya offer a fantastic opportunity to explore the local culture through your palate. Expect plenty of fresh fish, grilled meats, and colourful meze platters. In the evenings, taking a leisurely stroll through the centre of town is a must. You will find a welcoming atmosphere where the local hospitality shines through, whether you are stopping for a traditional tea or enjoying a meal at an outdoor table under the stars.

Getting There and When to Go

Direct flights from regional hubs like Manchester and Liverpool make accessing the Mediterranean Region straightforward. The peak summer months offer hot, dry weather that is perfect for sun-seekers, while the shoulder seasons of late spring and early autumn provide a slightly cooler, more comfortable climate for those who prefer to spend their time exploring or enjoying outdoor activities without the intensity of the mid-summer heat.

Who It Suits

This destination is incredibly versatile. It suits families who want all-inclusive ease, with kids' clubs and pools designed to keep everyone entertained. It is equally popular with couples looking for a romantic escape, offering plenty of quiet corners and beautiful views.
