Sural Saray

If you've ever spent a holiday wrestling for a sun lounger at dawn or given up on the pool because it's three-deep in inflatables- Sural Saray is the antidote. This 5-star, adults-only (16+) resort sits directly on the Mediterranean coast in Çolaklı, near Side, Antalya, and it's the kind of place that actually delivers on the promise of a relaxing break.

Running on an ultra all-inclusive basis, Sural Saray caters to couples, friends, and solo travellers who want quality without the noise. The property has undergone a full renovation, rooms are fresh and modern throughout, and the beach is literally on your doorstep. Fresh produce comes straight from the hotel's own Sural Green farm- you'll notice the difference at the buffet. 🌴☀️

Why Book Sural Saray?

There's a lot of competition along the Antalya coastline, but a few things here genuinely stand out from the crowd.

• Adults-only atmosphere (16+)-

  No kids' clubs, no splash zones, no late-night mini disco. Just a genuinely calm resort where you can switch off properly.

• Direct beachfront access 🏖️-

  The hotel sits right on a soft, sandy stretch of beach with shallow, stone-free sea entry. No road crossing, no shuttle, no faff.

• Farm-to-table dining-

  Fruits and vegetables are sourced from the brand's own Sural Green farm. It makes a real, noticeable difference to the quality of food on offer at the buffet.

• Fully renovated rooms-

  A comprehensive refurbishment means clean lines, modern finishes, and none of the tired décor you often find in older Turkish resorts.

• Relaxed evening entertainment-

  Live cover bands, folklore dance performances, and acoustic music nights. Low-key and genuinely enjoyable, not loud or gimmicky.

• Wellness included 🧖-

  The hammam, sauna, indoor pool, and gym are all complimentary. Paid treatments are available for those who want to go a step further.

• Easy local connections-

  A Dolmuş stop sits right outside the hotel entrance with buses running every 20 minutes to Side and Manavgat. Getting around without a hire car is straightforward.

How Far Is the Nearest Beach?

The beach is right outside, not even a metre away. 🏖️ Sural Saray sits directly on a private sandy stretch of the Side Halk Plajı beach line, with shallow, stone-free sea entry that's comfortable for a wide range of guests. There's no transfer, no beach bus, and no waiting. You step out of the hotel and you're there.

Distance from the Airport

Sural Saray is around 55 km from Antalya Airport (AYT), which works out to roughly 50–60 minutes by car or taxi depending on traffic. ✈️ If you're not arranging a pre-booked transfer, the Dolmuş shuttle stop directly outside the hotel connects to Side and Manavgat every 20 minutes, with onwards links from there.
