How to reach your hotel from Antalya Airport
Antalya welcomes millions of holidaymakers every year, and most visitors want to know the easiest way to get from the airport to their hotel. Antalya Airport (AYT) sits in the middle of a wide resort belt that stretches from Lara all the way to Alanya, so the region your hotel is in decides which transport option makes the most sense for you.
Here are the approximate distances to the main resort areas:
- AYT → Lara: ~15 km, 15–20 minutes
- AYT → City centre: ~14 km, 15–25 minutes
- AYT → Kundu hotel zone: ~20 km, 20–30 minutes
- AYT → Belek: ~35 km, 35–45 minutes
- AYT → Kemer: ~45 km, 40–55 minutes
- AYT → Side: ~65 km, 50–70 minutes
- AYT → Alanya: ~130 km, 1.5–2 hours
Ways to get from the airport to your hotel
The main options for reaching your hotel are:
- Havaş bus: Serves only the Antalya city bus terminal (AŞTİ). There is no direct Havaş link to resort areas such as Lara, Belek, Side or Kemer, so you would need an onward dolmuş (shared minibus) or taxi.
- Taxi: Available at the terminal exit. Taxis are licensed and metered, with an opening (drop) charge and a per-kilometre rate, and a night tariff may apply. On longer routes the final amount is not clear until the journey ends.
- Private transfer: Offers a fixed fare, a name-sign welcome and flight tracking; the further your region, the more valuable that predictability becomes.
Why choose a private transfer?
For regions far from the centre — Belek, Kemer, Side and Alanya in particular — a private transfer is the most practical solution. Your driver tracks your flight and waits even if you land late, meets you at the terminal exit with a name sign, takes care of your luggage and drives you straight to your hotel. The fare is confirmed when you book and does not change en route. Booking your return transfer at the same time means no rush to catch your flight on the last day.
How to choose the right vehicle for your hotel
Vehicle choice depends on your group size and the amount of luggage you carry. A saloon car is plenty for a couple or a small family, while larger families and groups of friends travel more comfortably in a minibus or midibus. When you enter your group details during booking, the suitable options appear for you.

My flight lands late at night — can I still get a transfer? Yes. Private transfers can be arranged around the clock, including for late-night and early-morning flights.
Is there a vehicle suitable for a large group? Yes. Depending on your group size, larger parties are served by a minibus or midibus.
