About Alanya

Alanya stretches 70 km of coastline including Oba, Mahmutlar, Kestel and Kargıcak. Gazipaşa Airport is just 45 km away — the fastest gateway. Antalya Airport transfers take about 2 hours.

Lower price-per-night than Belek or Lara. Mix of Russian + Northern European + Turkish guests, plus a large expat community. Long beachfront, busy main road, livelier nights.

Best season

April to early November — Alanya stays warmer 4-6 weeks later than Antalya proper. October is the sweet spot.

Hidden gem · Damlataş Caves under the castle

Natural caves with stable 22 °C / 95% humidity — locally believed to ease asthma. Twenty-minute walk from Cleopatra Beach, often empty in the morning.
