At a glance: Why an all-inclusive beach break in Turkey suits all travellers

Highlight: Endless beach action, but none of the towel laundry after
With over 300 days of sunshine each year, no-filter-needed beaches and diverse, natural landscapes, it’s no wonder Turkey is one of the UK’s most favourite holiday destinations.
With British Airways Holidays, head to the Turkish Riviera on the southwest coast of the country, where spots like Antalya, which faces onto the Mediterranean Sea, and Bodrum, on the shores of the Aegean Sea, offer idyllic beach breaks.
Here, lean into luxury at resort hotels, where you’ll find stunning pools, calming spas, fantastic kids’ clubs and next-level dining experiences. Beyond the resorts, there are charming old towns, brimming with history and culture.
Whatever you’re looking for from your next holiday – or whoever you’re travelling with – there’s something for all on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast.
Lara Barut Collection: a heavenly romantic getaway for couples
Whether you’re planning your honeymoon or just looking for a rejuvenating beach break with your significant other, this spot ticks all the boxes for couples.
Located on the sandy Lara Beach in Antalya, Lara Barut Collection, pictured above and main image, offers unadulterated luxury and indulgence, especially if you opt for a penthouse suite with its own private Turkish bath.
At the beach, kick back together on one of the daybeds. Relax to the soothing sounds of the waves and have drinks brought to you directly from the bar.
At mealtimes, choose from nine à la carte restaurants and various grab-and-go spots around the resort, which serve up everything from traditional Antalya dishes (don’t miss the pumpkin pudding with tahini) to Napoli-style pizzas.
The onsite spa offers massages, facials and traditional hammam rituals, while more adventurous guests can embark on a day trip to the delightful old town of Kaleiçi, where you can haggle for spices in traditional bazaars, or to the ancient ruins of Perge, where you can learn some local history.
Bayou Villas Lara Antalya: a villa holiday with all-inclusive perks perfect for groups
Torn between an all-inclusive beach break and a spacious villa holiday? Combine both at Bayou Villas Lara Antalya, where the accommodation includes one to four bed villas, but you also get access to everything that the Lara Barut Collection resort has to offer.
It’s perfect for groups who want to hang out together in their own space – each villa has a living area, kitchen and a garden with a private pool as well as a direct route to Lara Beach and the resort’s lagoon pool.
Part of a large party? The bigger villas also come with a sauna, steam room, massage room with a Jacuzzi, gym room and a billiards table, as well as complimentary butler service.
Venture into the main resort to enjoy expertly-crafted cocktails at one of the many bars, where the good times extend well into the evening with live music and DJ sets.
Anda Barut Collection: a gorgeous beach holiday packed with family fun
As every parent knows, keeping the kids sweet is key to a successful family holiday, and Anda Barut Collection will have no problem doing that.
Located in a secluded bay in Didim on the Aegean coast, the resort is about an hour’s drive from Bodrum airport and has all kinds of facilities that both parents and kids will enjoy. Split into three areas, there are spaces for children, adults-only and then for everyone.
Let’s start with the kids: there are three children’s pools – one indoors and two outdoors – and a vast adventure park that’s basically a dream come true for little ones. Within the adventure park, you’ll find an aqua zone and a carnival area with a playground, merry go-round and bumper cars. The kids’ club here is split into groups aged four to eight and eight to 12, while the LOL club is specifically for teenagers aged 13-18.
Adults can unwind in the tranquil spa, where an indoor infinity pool looks out to the ocean and the treatment menu boasts massages, cleansing facials and full body scrubs in the marble hammam.
