Türkler Guide: A Quiet All-Inclusive Beach Resort Near Alanya
Türkler is a small, peaceful all-inclusive resort area on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, tucked between Avsallar and Konaklı about 25 km west of Alanya centre. It suits families who want a quiet, good-value base by the sea with everything taken care of. This Türkler guide covers where it is, the beach, day trips and how to get there from both nearby airports.
Where Is Türkler and How to Get There
Türkler sits on the Alanya-Side corridor, on the coastal road between Avsallar to the west and Konaklı to the east, roughly 25 km from Alanya's old town. It is a compact resort strip rather than a busy town, which is exactly why families return for the calm. Two airports serve the area. Gazipaşa (GZP) is the closer one at around 58 km, while Antalya Airport (AYT) is about 108 km to the west. Because GZP is nearer, the drive is shorter and the fare is usually lower, though many international flights still land at AYT. We offer fixed-price private transfers from both airports straight to your Türkler hotel: you book on WhatsApp, your flight is tracked for free, your driver meets you at arrivals, and you pay the driver on arrival. Child seats are available on request, which makes the door-to-door trip easy for families.
The Beach and Seafront
The coast around Türkler is the same gentle stretch that runs through neighbouring Incekum and Avsallar, known for soft sand mixed with smooth pebbles and shallow, calm water close to shore. That combination is part of why this corner of the Alanya coast is popular with families: the sea stays shallow for a good distance, which is reassuring with younger children. Most large hotels along the strip have their own beach areas with sunbeds and shade, so much of your beach time happens right in front of your resort. The water is clear and the seafront has a relaxed, unhurried feel compared with the busier promenades closer to Alanya centre. For a change of scenery you can walk or take a short ride toward the wider sands at Incekum. Bring water shoes if your stretch leans more pebbly, and the early morning and late afternoon are the calmest, prettiest times by the water.
Things to Do Nearby
Türkler is quiet by design, but plenty sits within easy reach. The Incekum pine park, a shaded forest area right by the sea, is a lovely spot for a picnic and a swim just minutes away. Avsallar next door has more shops, cafes and a livelier beach scene. The headline day trip is Alanya itself, about 25 km east, where you can climb to the hilltop castle, explore the old town and the Red Tower, and stroll the harbour. Boat trips run along the coast from Alanya harbour, often stopping at sea caves and coves for swimming. Inland, the Dim River valley makes a refreshing escape on a hot day, with riverside restaurants where tables sit on platforms over cool running water, plus the nearby Dim Cave. Closer to home, Konaklı on the other side offers another easygoing beach and a weekly market. With a private transfer or a short taxi hop, all of these are simple half-day outings.
Where to Stay and Who It Suits
Accommodation in Türkler is dominated by large all-inclusive beach resorts, the kind with multiple pools, a private beach area, kids' clubs, evening entertainment and full board included. This is the heart of the appeal: you can settle in, let the children roam safely between pool and beach, and rarely need to leave the grounds. The area suits families and couples who want a relaxed, value-focused holiday rather than nightlife or city buzz. Because it is a little out from Alanya's centre, prices can feel friendlier than the busier resort towns, while you still get the same warm sea and sunshine. If you crave a lively bar strip and late nights, you may prefer central Alanya. But if your idea of a good holiday is poolside mornings, calm beach afternoons and easy day trips when you fancy them, Türkler delivers exactly that quiet, all-inclusive rhythm.
Eating, Shopping and Practical Tips
With most hotels running all-inclusive boards, plenty of guests eat in, but it is worth venturing out for local flavour. Avsallar and Konakly have casual Turkish restaurants and lokantas serving grilled meats, meze, fresh fish and gozleme, and you will find tea gardens and bakeries along the way. For shopping, the weekly markets in nearby Avsallar and Konaklı are great for fresh fruit, spices, textiles and the usual holiday souvenirs, while small supermarkets cover everyday needs near the hotels. A few practical notes: the Turkish lira is the currency, though many places accept cards; bring sun protection as the summer sun is strong; and tap water is best used for washing rather than drinking, so stick to bottled. Pharmacies are easy to find and helpful. For getting around, taxis and dolmus minibuses connect the coastal villages, but for airport runs a pre-booked fixed-price private transfer is the simplest, most relaxed option with a family in tow.
