Overview

 
Set on a long, sandy beachfront just outside Side, Club Calimera Serra Palace is made for fun‑loving families. Think on-site aquapark, splash zones for little ones, non‑stop entertainment and a choice of restaurants, all wrapped up in leafy gardens and low-rise blocks. Spacious rooms sleep up to five, while the Certified Sustainable Hotel status means your stay treads a little lighter on Turkey’s glorious Antalya coast.

Endless slides, palm‑lined pools and that big blue Med horizon – Club Calimera Serra Palace delivers a classic Antalya family holiday with extra splash factor. Children vanish happily into the aquapark, kids’ club and playgrounds, while adults drift between the beach, spa, chilled beach bars and sunset cocktails at Serra Sky Bar. All Inclusive keeps things easy, with buffets and à la carte venues to mix it up over a week or two in the sun. For families seeking Turkey’s Antalya Area charm with everything on hand, Club Calimera Serra Palace delivers the perfect balance. It’s approximately 2 hours by road from Antalya Airport (AYT).

Map & location


Side, Antalya Area, Turkey

Club Calimera Serra Palace stretches along a peaceful strip of beachfront outside Side, on Turkey’s sun-drenched Antalya coast. You’re tucked away enough to feel like a self-contained resort, yet Side’s ancient ruins, harbourfront restaurants and lively bazaar are an easy day out.

Within the grounds it’s all palm-sprinkled gardens, pools and waterslides leading down towards the sand. Step outside and you’re well placed for boat trips, coastal walks and exploring Manavgat’s markets and waterfalls by taxi or excursion.

  • • Approx. transfer time from Antalya Airport (AYT) 2 hours (coach, depending on traffic and stops)
