About Konaklı

About Konaklı

Konaklı is a relaxed resort town just west of Alanya, built around a long sand-and-pebble beach and rows of friendly all-inclusive hotels. A private transfer from Gazipaşa-Alanya Airport (GZP) reaches it in under an hour, dropping you straight at your hotel door.

Laid-back and unhurried. Days revolve around the beach, the hotel pool and the seaside promenade, with the gentle rhythm of a resort town rather than a party scene. Evenings are easy: a stroll for ice cream, a market-day browse, or a short hop into Alanya for dinner by the harbour. It is the kind of place where the same families return year after year.

Best season
May to October is prime, with reliable sun, warm sea and every hotel open. July and August bring the hottest weather and the liveliest beach; late May, June and September offer the sweet spot of warm water and thinner crowds. Many all-inclusive resorts wind down between November and March.
Hidden gem · Sunset on the western shore
Because Konaklı faces gently westward along the coast, its beach and promenade catch some of the best evening light on this stretch of the Riviera. Walk to the quieter western end past the hotel beach clubs, grab a tea from a kiosk, and watch the sky turn over the water while the day-trip crowds are back in Alanya.
What Konaklı is famous for

Six reasons people choose Konaklı

The standout features that set Konaklı apart from every other Antalya region.

🏖️
Long Mediterranean beach
Konaklı's coastline runs nearly 5 km, a mix of soft sand and smooth pebble with clear, gently shelving water and several Blue Flag stretches.
🏨
All-inclusive resorts
The town is lined with 4- and 5-star all-inclusive hotels, many with private beach sections, pools and aquaparks aimed squarely at families.
🛍️
Wednesday market
The weekly Konaklı pazarı near the medical centre fills Vatan Street with fruit, spices, olives, textiles and Turkish sweets every Wednesday.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Quiet family base
Calmer and more residential than central Alanya, Konaklı suits families who want a swim-and-sun holiday without the late-night crowds.
🌊
Water Planet next door
One of the Mediterranean coast's biggest aquaparks sits a short drive west toward Okurcalar, with dozens of slides, wave pools and a lazy river.
🚗
Easy Alanya access
Just about 12 km along the D400, central Alanya's castle, harbour and bazaar are a quick dolmuş or transfer ride east when you want more buzz.
What to do

A short-list our drivers and dispatchers recommend after dropping guests at their hotel.

🏊
Swim and sunbathe
Settle onto the long beach for the day. The water is clear and shallow near shore, with sun loungers, water sports and shaded cafés strung along the sand.
🛍️
Browse the Wednesday market
Go early for the freshest produce. Haggle for textiles and leather, taste olives and lokum, and stock up on spices and dried fruit to take home.
🎢
Spend a day at Water Planet
A short drive west, this big aquapark packs in family slides, extreme chutes, wave pools and a lazy river. Most resorts run shuttle pick-ups.
🚤
Take an Alanya boat tour
Day boats cruise from Alanya harbour past sea caves and swimming coves beneath the castle peninsula, with lunch and swim stops along the way.
🍢
Eat along the promenade
Step beyond the all-inclusive buffet for grilled fish, gözleme and köfte at the casual restaurants lining Konaklı's seafront and main street.
🚣
Cool off at the Dim River
East of Alanya, riverside restaurants on platforms over the icy Dim Çayı make a refreshing half-day escape from the summer heat.

Trip tricks

Travel tips for Konaklı transfers

What we tell every guest before they fly in. Save these on your phone before landing.

👟
Pack water shoes
Parts of Konaklı's beach turn to pebble, especially near the waterline. Water shoes make wading in far more comfortable for everyone.
💶
Bring cash for the market
Market traders and small cafés prefer cash. Carry Turkish lira in small notes, and feel free to bargain politely at the Wednesday pazarı.
🚌
Use the dolmuş for Alanya
Shared minibuses run frequently along the D400 to central Alanya and the western resorts, a cheap, easy way to explore beyond your hotel.
🛫
Book your transfer ahead
GZP is small and taxis can be limited at busy times. A pre-booked private transfer means a driver waiting on arrival, no queues or haggling.
