Antalya Airport to Side Star Park Transfer

From Antalya Airport the drive to Side Star Park covers about 60 km and usually takes around 56 minutes, depending on traffic and the time of day. The route heads east from the airport on the main coastal highway, passing the Belek area before continuing towards the Side and Colakli stretch, then turning onto local roads for the final approach to the hotel.

Most of the journey runs on a modern, well-maintained dual carriageway, so the ride is smooth and steady. Along the way you pass open countryside, pine and citrus groves and the green edges of the resort belt rather than busy city-centre streets.

Because it is a private door-to-door transfer, the car goes straight to the hotel entrance with no extra stops, drop-offs or detours unless you ask for one.

After a long flight the last thing most travellers want is to hunt for a taxi or work out a shuttle timetable. With a private transfer your driver is already waiting when you land, so you walk straight from arrivals to the car.

The roughly 56-minute ride gives you time to relax and watch the coast go by before you reach Side Star Park, and because the car drops you at the entrance there is no extra walk with your luggage. This is especially welcome when you arrive late at night, early in the morning, or with tired children.

From the door it is just a short step to reception and check-in, so your holiday in Colakli starts the moment you step out of the car.

We offer two main vehicle types for this route. An economy car suits couples and small families and starts from €27 per vehicle one way. A Mercedes Vito minivan suits larger groups or guests with extra luggage and starts from €35 per vehicle one way.

Prices are per vehicle, not per person, and are fixed in advance, so the fare does not change with traffic or waiting time. Included as standard are a free meet and greet with a name sign in arrivals, flight tracking so the driver adjusts to delays, and child seats on request at no extra cost.

There is no prepayment required. You pay the driver directly at the end of the ride, in cash or by card, whichever is easier for you.

Side Star Park is in Colakli, a holiday district between Belek and Side that is geared towards relaxed beach stays. The long sandy and pebbly coast, the warm summers and the mild spring and autumn months are the main reasons guests choose this part of the shore.

The old town of Side, with its harbour, ancient ruins and seafront restaurants, is only a short drive away and makes an easy day out during your stay. Local minibuses, known as dolmus, run along the coast road, but for trips with luggage, late arrivals or a fixed schedule a private car is far more comfortable.

Return transfers from the hotel back to Antalya Airport are easy to arrange at the same time as your arrival. The driver agrees a pickup time that leaves a comfortable margin for check-in, which is worth confirming the evening before for early flights.

A private transfer is booked and priced in advance, so you know the exact fare before you travel and the price is per vehicle rather than per person. A metered taxi can cost more at busy times, and a shared shuttle often stops at several hotels along the way, which adds time to a journey that is already around 56 minutes.

With a private car you have the vehicle to yourself, the driver waits even if your flight is delayed, and child seats are fitted before you arrive. There is no language barrier at the rank and no haggling over the price.

For a 60 km trip to Side Star Park with luggage and perhaps tired children, the comfort and certainty of a fixed, door-to-door drive usually outweigh the small saving of a shuttle seat.
