Delphin BE Grand Resort

This five-star resort on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast – just outside of Antalya – looks and feels more like a palace than a hotel, such is its elegant appearance, vast array of amenities and all-round luxurious ambience. 

It’s right by the coast, with access to a gorgeous sandy beach where you can spend chilled out days swimming, sunbathing and sipping ice-cold drinks to your heart’s content. Cool off in any one of the numerous outdoor pools (with separate areas for relaxation and entertainment), make the most of the exhilarating slides at the on-site aqua parks, or take it easy at the spa, where a Turkish bath, sauna, jacuzzi and indoor pool offer the perfect environment for total relaxation. There’s a mini club for kids aged four to 12, as well as a children’s cinema, so you needn’t worry about keeping young ones occupied.

Whatever you fancy eating at any given moment, you’re almost certain to find something that piques your interest here, with 10 à la carte restaurants to choose from, including ones specialising in Turkish, Italian, Greek, Mexican, Far East and Japanese cuisine. The main buffet restaurant, meanwhile, serves an extensive variety of dishes every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You certainly won’t struggle to find somewhere when it comes to drinks, either, with more than 10 bars dotted throughout the resort – so feel free to hop between them and see which is your favourite.
