Club Aquarium Hotel

Club Aquarium has snagged a best-of-both-worlds location – tucked away in the outskirts of Icmeler surrounded by forested mountains, but still within shouting distance of the buzzy resort centre and the beach.

The complex has a lovely feel, with traditional Turkish-style buildings clad in vibrant greenery, and a split-level sun terrace that’s home to a good-sized pool, plus a separate swim spot just for little ones. A bar doles out drinks on the lower level, and there’s no shortage of sun loungers and parasols if you need to take a load off. If the likes of pool games and aqua gym are right up your alley, head to sister hotel Grand Aquarium – on foot or via the complimentary shuttle – where you'll have access to the daily activities, as well as the nightly entertainment.
