If you’re looking for a fun family getaway for you and the kids, or perhaps you’re thinking of heading off on a multi-generation holiday, then toasty Turkey is a great place to start!
We’ve rounded up what we think are the best family hotels in Turkey – from amazing facilities to one-of-a-kind kids’ clubs and even whole waterparks, these hotels will leave everyone in the family feeling fantastic!
Rixos Premium Tekirova
This 5* offering in Turkey’s Antalya region is nothing short of spectacular – you’ll be blown away by your surroundings from the moment you arrive.
With seemingly endless pools on the grounds, as well as its own lake and a mountain backdrop (complete with snow covered cliffs!), the beauty of this hotel will make you feel like you’re in paradise.
Family holidays here are simply a delight – you’ve got your own onsite waterpark, complete with a lazy river, and an adventure park boasting a zip line for zooming. On top of that you’ve got a climbing wall, plus a kids’ club with its very own cinema.
As if all that wasn’t enough, when you stay at this hotel you also get free access to the Land of Legends Theme and Waterpark – an amazing place for a family day out! Make a splash in the wave pool or have fun screaming in the sunshine on rollercoasters – you’ll make memories to last a lifetime.
In terms of the hotel, you’re also perfectly situated on the beach – with a private section just for guests, complete with bougie Bali beds for relaxing as well as a play area on the sand for the kids.
You’re spoiled for choice when it comes to food and drink – we’re talking about mouth-watering a la carte options, including an Italian, Asian, South American, Turkish and seafood offerings.
If you’ve still got room, there’s a food court serving up tasty Turkish pastries, sandwiches and burgers, a detox juice bar, and even an ice-cream parlour for those with a sweet tooth!
Oh and did we forget to mention – there’s a Starbucks at this hotel. And, what’s more – it’s included as part of the All Inclusive! Yes, you read that right. Enjoy your daily lattes and frappes – all for free!
If you’ve got teens coming with you, they get their very own space, with video games galore and table tennis. On an evening, all the family can enjoy high quality entertainment, from circus shows featuring talented acrobats to musical performances from DJs doing their very own sets.
For 5* family fun, Rixos Tekirova is pretty hard to beat!
TUI Blue Ephesus
It’s all in the name – this TUI BLUE for Families hotel does exactly what it says on the tin. Set between a beach and a wet and wild waterpark, this hotel, previously known as TUI FAMILY LIFE Ephesus, has everything you need for a fun-filled stay.
If holidays are all about relaxing, recuperating and replenishing for you, then you’ll love TUI BLUE Ephesus, as there’s a real focus on wellbeing here.
You’ve got family wellbeing classes which promote mindfulness, as well as parent and baby wellbeing sessions for under 3s. You’ll focus on mindfulness, yoga poses, and play and relaxation techniques to make you feel calmer than ever.
You can also book a bit of me-time in the spa, which has massage areas, a sauna and a steam room. There’s a gym too of course, if you’re up for a workout.
On top of all that you’ve got professionally run swimming lessons, and the kids are even inspired too – with things like The Healthy Eating Challenge, encouraging them to try new foods and collecting stickers on lanyards for doing so!
If the kids love making a splash (or even if you do!) then you’ve got the choice of an indoor pool, a big lagoon-like outdoor pool, as well as a children’s pool and a baby pool.
You also get free, unlimited access to the waterpark which boasts a whopping 31 slides, from twisting corkscrews to wavy racer lanes and a lazy river! If you’re an adrenaline junkie, see if you’re brave enough to take on the three biggest – Viper, Screamer, and X-Treme. Prepare to zoom!
You’ll find two restaurants at this hotel – a buffet and a Mediterranean number. The go-to spot is the buffet restaurant, which comes with a section specifically for kids’ dishes. There are big tables designed for groups, plus quieter, adults-only areas too. You’ve also got a snack bar, a beach bar, a Caribbean bar and even a juice bar!
For a family stay filled with fun and paired with plenty of R&R, the TUI BLUE Ephesus is a no-brainer for a holiday in Turkey.
Holiday Village Turkey
Have you ever had a Holiday Village holiday? If not – you’ve never lived! Holiday Villages offer everything for memorable holidays, tailored perfectly for families. This one in Turkey is one of our favourites in the world!
You can’t fail to make a splash here, with an amazing seven pools to choose from – with the main pool featuring gigantic water funnels that shower you with water as you swim!
You’ll find it all goes on around the main pool, with upbeat songs on the go to get you in that summer spirit, as well as a ‘party in the pool’ where the daily king and queen of the pool is announced – for those willing to bring their best dance moves! There’s also daily quizzes, and inflatables that make their way out onto the water for even more fun.
There’s quieter pools of course too, with one featuring whirlpool baths to chill out in, as well as a slide pool with four fantastic chutes. Little ones get a pair of pools to themselves, with fountains and a mini slide to keep them smiling in the sun.
Even the pickiest of eaters will have full tummies here, with five restaurants serving up all kinds of flavours, from Italian to Turkish and even Asian, with good old British favourites thrown in for good measure too. You’ve also got stalls for ice cream and freshly cooked pancakes, perfect for a little midday snack!
Entertainment-wise, there’s plenty going on both day and night. You’ll find quizzes and live music in the amphitheatre, as well as stage shows and cabaret on an evening.
During the day, get stuck into everything from archery to canoeing and tennis, or try your hand at crazy golf or pirate-themed raft building. There’s even an arcade and a bowling alley, too!
Rixos Sungate
If you want to feel like you’re in your very own mini town, with pretty much everything tailored for families – then say hello to the Rixos Sungate!
Sat right on the beach front, this hotel serves up all the fun in the sun you could possibly wish for – it even has its very own waterpark, with 11 slides!
On top of that you’ve got an unbelievable 10 pools spread out around the hotel, meaning you can test out a new one every day on a seven night break! There’s a pool for swimming laps, one for water aerobics, and ones that are like secluded lagoons under swaying palm trees. So take your pick!
Even the fussiest of eaters will be satisfied here, with over ten bars and restaurants for you to choose from – The Mandarin a la carte, serving flavoursome cuisine from the Far East is always a favourite, as well as the pizza and pasta you’ll find in the Italian, La Rosetta.
Little ones even get their own mini place to eat during the summer months from May to October, so they’ll feel just as treated as the adults.
And the best thing about a Rixos stay for families? It has to be the Rixy Club. With various age group activities for 3 year olds to 17 year olds, the kids will never have a dull moment at this hotel.
The things they’ll get up to are seemingly never ending – discos, painting, baking, starting their own band, and even coding robots! These experiences are far from your average kids club. That means of course, you can sneak off for a few cocktails since they’ll be so entertained!
TUI BLUE Tropical
Over in sunny Sarigerme lies another TUI BLUE property serving up spectacular facilities for your family holiday to Turkey – say hello to the TUI BLUE Tropical.
This hotel goes all-out to keep you entertained, with an enormous central pool complex complete with whizzing waterslides. The kids get three pools just for them, including one with slides, then there’s a lagoon-sized pool too, with a couple of bigger flumes.
On top of that there’s a quiet pool, and another inside if you’re after some shade. For a quick bite in between swimming, there’s a pool bar serving snacks and drinks. Poolside cocktails, anyone?!
Being sat right on a sandy beach, it’s the perfect spot for beach games as a family, and the sea starts off shallow enough to enjoy a paddle.
You’ll never be short on activities and entertainment here – there’s something for everyone. Little ones are well catered for, thanks to the BabyClub for tots’ playtime. There’s also kids’ clubs for 3 to 11-year-olds, and The Hangout for teens.
In the early evening, there’s games and shows dedicated to little ones featuring the loveable TUI BLUE For Families mascot, Captain T the dog. And later, you’ll discover the talents of the show cast when they take to the stage.
As with all TUI BLUE properties, there’s a focus on wellbeing, and this TUI BLUE For Families hotel is no different. Once again you’ll find The Healthy Eating Challenge in full swing here, encouraging youngsters (especially any picky eaters!) to try new foods, and wellbeing classes help you to relax.
You can also try a fusion of yoga and dance with TUI FlowTheBeat, a new group fitness class. There’s Aqua Fitness sessions, plus BLUEf!t®ForFamilies – a weekly workout event tailored for the whole family.
