Map & location
Olu Deniz, Dalaman Area, Turkey
Olu Deniz is one of Turkey’s most photographed resorts, famed for its mirror-calm Blue Lagoon backed by forested mountains. Hotel Blue Star Oludeniz places you within an easy stroll of the main beach while keeping things pleasantly low-key back at base.
By day, you can wander along the promenade, book a boat trip, or take the short drive to the lagoon for those iconic turquoise views. By night, choose between the hotel’s own restaurant and the relaxed bars and eateries in the resort centre – close enough for convenience, but far enough to keep nights at the hotel generally peaceful.
- • Beach 200m
- • Olu Deniz resort centre 1km
- • Blue Lagoon entrance around 10 minutes’ drive (local transport/taxi)
- • Dalaman Airport (DLM) 65km
- Approx. transfer time from airport 2 hours
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The heart of the hotel is its outdoor freshwater pool, framed by sunbeds and parasols and backed by lush greenery and mountain views. It’s a relaxed space for lazy days, with inflatables typically allowed and a handy pool bar close by for drinks and snacks (seasonal).
With the beach only around 200m away, you can easily split your time between pool and sea. The main Olu Deniz beach offers plenty of watersports and boat trips, while the famous Blue Lagoon – a short taxi or bus ride away – is perfect for sheltered, shallow swimming.
Spa, sports & wellness
Sport and leisure facilities are modest but well chosen for the hotel’s size. You’ll find:
• Pool table and table tennis for relaxed games
• Restaurant with kids’ menu for family-friendly dining
• Reception services including concierge, currency exchange and luggage storage
There’s no dedicated spa on-site, but local spas and hammams in Olu Deniz and nearby Hisaronu can be easily booked if you’d like a traditional Turkish bath or massage during your stay.
