Overview

 
Side Star Park is a lively All Inclusive base just a short stroll from Side’s golden sands. With a private beachfront area, three outdoor pools including a children’s pool with slides, a spa with Turkish bath, bowling alley and a brilliant kids’ club, it’s set up for both couples and families who want plenty to do on site. Add in four restaurants, a beach bar and a sustainable ethos, and you have a very easy holiday choice on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast.

Sun-drenched pool terraces, a palm-lined path to the sand and a compact, friendly layout: Side Star Park wraps everything into one easy All Inclusive stay. Families will love the slides and kids’ club, while couples can drift between the spa, piano bar and beach bar. Being a certified sustainable hotel means your stay is kinder to the local environment too. For couples and families keen to enjoy Turkey’s Antalya Area with everything on hand, Side Star Park strikes a sweet balance: a private stretch of Side’s sandy beach just 250m away, big pools with slides, and a spa and bars for grown‑up downtime. It’s around 1 hour 30 minutes from Antalya airport. See more Turkey holidays.

Map & location


Side, Antalya Area, Turkey

Side Star Park puts you within strolling distance of everything that makes Side so popular. A short walk leads to the golden-sand main beach, while the resort centre tempts with harbourfront cafés, shops selling leather and jewellery, and ancient ruins dotted between modern streets.

In the evenings, wander into the old town for sunset at the Temple of Apollo, then drift back along the promenade or take a short taxi ride home. With Side Museum, Market Square and Sorgun Beach all within a couple of kilometres, you can easily mix culture, beach time and low-key nightlife in one stay.

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


With three outdoor pools plus a private section of Side’s sandy beach, water babies are spoiled for choice.

• Large main outdoor freshwater pool with surrounding sun terrace, loungers and parasols (seasonal).
• Second outdoor freshwater pool with water slides – a big hit with families.
• Separate shallow outdoor children’s pool with its own sunbathing area.
• Free pool towels provided, so you can travel lighter.

A short walk brings you to the hotel-managed stretch of Side beach, where the beach bar keeps drinks and snacks close at hand. The shore here is typically gently shelving, making it friendly for paddling with younger children, while the wider Side coastline offers water sports such as jet-skiing and windsurfing (usually run by independent local operators).

Opening dates for pools and the beach bar generally run from spring to late autumn and can be weather and occupancy dependent.
