About Payallar

About Payallar

Payallar is a relaxed resort strip on the Mediterranean shore just west of Alanya, lined with all-inclusive hotels backing onto a long, gently shelving sandy beach near pine-shaded İncekum. A private transfer from Gazipaşa Airport (GZP) reaches your hotel door in about an hour, so you can be poolside the same afternoon you land.

Easygoing and resort-focused rather than buzzy. Days revolve around the beach, the hotel pool and a leisurely buffet, with the genuine Turkish village of Payallar set back from the strip lending a calmer, more local feel than busier Alanya. Evenings are low-key: hotel entertainment, a stroll along the sand, or a short hop to Avsallar or Alanya for nightlife.

Best season
Late May to early October is prime beach season, with sea temperatures peaking warm in July and August alongside the biggest crowds. June and September are the sweet spot, with hot but bearable days, warm water and lower rates. April and October stay mild and pleasant for sightseeing rather than long beach days.
Hidden gem · The Old Village Behind the Strip
Walk a few hundred metres inland from the hotels and Payallar's original village appears, complete with a weekly local market, family tea gardens and citrus gardens. It is where you find honest köfte and gözleme at local prices, far from the all-inclusive buffet.

Trip tricks

Travel tips for Payallar transfers

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

🚗
Pre-book Your Transfer
Gazipaşa (GZP) is the closer airport but has limited public transport, so a pre-booked private transfer is the simplest door-to-door option to your Payallar hotel.
💶
Carry Some Lira
All-inclusive covers most needs, but keep Turkish lira for the village market, dolmuş fares, tips and extras the resort wristband won't cover.
👟
Pack Beach Shoes
Sections of the shore mix sand with fine pebbles, so water shoes make wading and swimming far more comfortable, especially for children.
🚐
Use the Dolmuş
The coastal minibuses are cheap and frequent; flag one on the main road and pay the driver to reach Avsallar, Konaklı or Alanya without a taxi.
