A family vacation is a wonderful adventure that should be carefully prepared for. It is recommended to pay special attention to the choice of a place and a hotel, because babies often require certain conditions and special meals. Turkey offers many excellent opportunities for families with children.
Turkish Family Resorts
Younger guests are welcome and very important visitors to many Turkish hotels. Most prepared to meet demanding guests at the resorts of Belek. Particular attention is paid to families with very young children - up to three years old. In addition to highchairs and a special menu, many hotels in the resort provide bottle warmers and blenders for self-mashed potatoes.
Belek beaches deserve special attention. They are distinguished by their cleanliness, fine sand and a gentle entrance to the water, which warms up very quickly. In this part of the Antalya coast, dangerous sea reptiles are also not found - poisonous jellyfish and hedgehogs. One of the obvious advantages is its moderately close location to the airport: the journey takes about 40 minutes.
For holidays in Turkey with older children (from 5 years old), you should pay attention to the resort of Side. The area is very convenient for its close proximity to many Turkish attractions, as well as hotels with excellent animation and children's entertainment. However, there is also a minus: stones may come across when entering the sea.
Another great place for families with children of almost any age is Kemer. There are wonderful water parks, play mini-clubs and other interesting places to visit with a child. Thanks to the pine forest, the air in Kemer is very clean, and the mountain range protects the resort from strong winds. Only pebble beaches can become a negative point for some travelers with children. However, most places are characterized by a gentle and safe entry into the water.
